Crazy Good Fruit Dip

Crazy good fruit dip recipe that I came up with today. I had a birthday party to go to and was asked to bring fruit. So.. I thought it might be nice to have something to dip it in! I wen't to the store and grabbed a couple random things and just mixed them all together. And this is what I came up with! ☺




Ingredients:
  • 3.4 oz package of vanilla pudding
  • 8 oz container of whipped cream
  • 7 oz container of marshmallow cream
  • 8 oz package of cream cheese
Instructions:
  1. First you will want to let your cream cheese get to room temperature, otherwise it will be slightly chunky when you mix everything together.
  2. Once the cream cheese is no longer cold.. you simply dump everything in a bowl and mix it together with a hand held mixer. I am sure you could also use a Kitchen Aid if you have one. I have one.. but I decided to try it with the hand held first.. and it seemed to work really well. ☺
I only ended up needing about half of it for this amount of fruit, I saved the other half in the fridge.


Everyone at the party kept on telling me over and over how much they loved this. I am sure you could even substitute the vanilla pudding for another flavor to mix things up a little, depending on what fruit you are serving. But this dip tasted amazing with the fresh pineapple, apples, strawberries, and grapes that I served up with it. 

I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for reading! ☺

Daddy's Sunday Pancakes

This is the recipe my dad used to make us all the time when we were younger. EVERY Sunday he would wake us up early and make us pancakes, eggs, and bacon. We get this special syrup from our family back in Maryland. I don't think they sell it anywhere in Utah. It's a shame.. because this is the worlds most amazing syrup.. I love love love it! My grandparents ship it out to us in boxes because we love it so much. It is definitely my favorite thing to top off the amazing pancakes. Anyways... the recipe! ☺ Ingredients: • 4 cups of flour • 6 tsp baking powder • 1 tsp salt • 2 Tbsp sugar • 4 eggs • 2 ½ cups of milk Instructions: 1. Mix everything together 2. Cook on a skillet or frying pan (whatever works) until bubbly. I find that cooking it on medium heat works best. And as soon as it is getting pretty bubbly just flip it! 3. Top it off with whatever pancake stuff you like and then eat! ENJOY! thanks for reading!

Corned Beef and Cabbage

Well, its St. Patricks day... so I decided to try my hand at making corned beef and cabbage. I have never made it before but I was very very pleasently surprised with how it turned out. Corned beef is one of my husbands absolute favorite foods, and he says the way I cooked it was the best he has ever had. I also liked it, especially for my first time ever eating it. Here is how its done! Ingredients: Package of corned beef (you can get it at Walmart, Harmons, Smiths, most grocery stores) Salt Water 1 head of cabbage Instructions: (Now to make your own corned beef from scratch it literally takes 7-10 days to cure.. so that is why I (and most people) buy it packaged.) Take your corned beef and trim off a little bit of the fat on top. Me and my husband both have texture issues.. and it didn't seem to affect how moist the meat was. And honestly you can skip this step if it seems like too much of a pain, all the fat dissolved off anyways. Take a rack (I used a co...
