Easy Snacks for kids and adults alike

I thought I'd post some easy to make with or without the kids help for some yummy snacks while the country is on Quarantine over the next few weeks.  

Peanut Butter & Jelly Bars

I have a serious love of Peanut Butter and Jelly everything.

I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, Peanut Butter and Jelly Thumbprint Cookies, and now these delicious Peanut Butter and Jelly Bars.

Creamy Tomato Basil Soup

Hey guys, it's SOUP time again.  The weather has been off and on rain for the past several weeks and that always gets me in the mood for soup.

I have always wanted to make a great tomato soup and I think I finally perfect it with this one.

Broccoli Cheddar Soup

Every once in a while I decide to do a recipe re-do.  I have revamped this recipe for Broccoli Cheddar Soup with a few new ingredients and a couple of new pictures.

A couple of days ago it finally started getting cooler here in Northern California and I for one am super happy about that because that means soup for me.

Last night I made this for dinner using my original Broccoli Cheddar Soup and making a few changes to it make it even more delicious.

Taco Pizza

Here is the famous Taco Pizza you guys!

As many of you know, we love pizza and we love tacos around here almost more than anything else.

So why not combine the two into a delicious new creation?

Well.....that's exactly what I did.  I took the best of both dishes and made my now famous taco pizza a couple of months ago and have made it a few more times since.

Peppermint White Chocolate Cheesecakes - Individual

 

I made these last year for the holidays and they are amazing!

This year I'm ACTUALLY going to try and get a head start on holiday baking recipes so I'll be posting them through the next two months along with Fall recipes.

I'm a sucker for cheesecake.

It has to be one of my favorite desserts, but who wants to take hours of quiet time and water baths to get a delicious cheesecake?  Not me!

Dark Chocolate Peanut Clusters

If you're looking for an easy but fancy treat to make this holiday season try these Dark Chocolate Peanut Clusters.

The are so easy to make and you can give them as hostess gifts wrapped in a cellophane bag or dressed up in a holiday mug and brighten your family and friend's day.

These would make great teacher and coworker gifts too.
