Christmas Cake Pop Bars

Christmas Cake Pop Bars are perfect for kids and adults!

One of the most fun things from the Sweet Starts Weekend was seeing the new products Duncan Hines was making.  We were sworn to secrecy before they showed us (and let us taste!).  I have been waiting since then to share them with you so I was so excited when the first product hit shelves!

Sugar Cookies with Eggnog Cream Cheese Frosting


These sugar cookies with eggnog frosting are perfect for any holiday party!

My kids loved these sugar cookies growing up. They make great holiday cookies, the recipe is easy to double or triple, depending on how many you need, but I use this recipe for any occasion. With cookie cutters of every shape and size and for every holiday, I would make these cookies for all occasions and parties.

Dark Chocolate Truffle Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies


I am so excited to be participating in the 3rd Annual Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap! You know how you make cookies for your neighbors at Christmas and you get goodies from your friends?  That's what the Cookie Swap is like except you swap across country with other food bloggers.

Southwest Scrambled Egg Whites


If you have been visiting the blog recently you have seen a ton of sweet treats like these... and these.... and these.  Contrary to as it may appear I do actually cook healthy foods too!  Today I want to share with you one of my favorite weekend breakfasts - it's easy, has lots of protein, and is full of flavor!

What's Momma Makin' - Harvest Salad


Now that the holiday season is in full swing, I will be surrounded by massive amounts of sugary treats and good (most likely unhealthy!) eats.  This salad is perfect for trying to balance out the sweets.  It is one of my absolute favorites.  It's perfect to bring to parties because it's so versatile, brightly colored and super tasty!
