Sweet Easter Nest Donuts Recipe

Image
These Sweet Easter Nest Donuts are extremely cute and delicious. They take no time to make and are simply adorable.  The original recipe comes from Country Crock  and after looking at the recipe I decided I would try it with a cake mix. You need a donut pan or maker, obviously, to make these donuts. I purchased a set of silicone donut molds on Amazon . Once upon a time, I had an electric donut maker and I have no idea what I did with it, probably donated it to Goodwill. The original recipe makes 6 servings but since I was using a cake mix, it made 2 dozen. You can also use a small box of cake mix if you don't want to make as many. In our household, donuts do not last long. Let's get started making donuts! Ingredients :      Supermoist Vanilla Cake Mix or your favorite cake mix      1 C of water      1/2 C vegetable oil      3 eggs Chocolate Glaze:      8 oz bittersweet chocolate chips      2 T light corn syrup     1 Stick of  butter, hot and melted      1/2 t kosher salt Toppi

Irish Grilled Cheese Sandwich Taste Test Review

Image
Recently, on our latest Facebook Live show , we tried some Irish foods because it happened to be St. Patrick's Day. Not only that, we like to eat 😉 The recipe came from the Food Network .  Irish Grilled Cheese Sandwich Ingredients: White Bread Butter Parsley, chopped Scallions, chopped Chives, chopped Irish Cheddar Cheese Bread and butter pick Don't forget the bread! Instructions for 2 sandwiches Mash 4 tablespoons softened butter with 2 tablespoons each chopped parsley, scallions, and chives. Spread the mixture on 4 slices of white bread and top each with sliced Irish cheddar cheese and bread/butter pickles cover with 4 more bread slices. Spread plain butter on the outside of the sandwiches and fry in a skillet until golden on both sides. Spread the remaining herb butter on the warm sandwiches. Slice into quarters, then press the cut sides in more chopped herbs. If you would like to see what we thought, take a look at our video from the day we were trying out all that great I

Six Make Ahead Freezer Meals

Image
Do you like to save time and money? Make-ahead freezer meals save time and money. I typically make a meal for the three of us and freeze the leftovers. It's always a great idea to have a few meals in the freezer for those busy days. I recommend making extra of every meal during a full week, then you will have a full week of dinners in a pinch. Prepping freezer meals starts with buying enough ingredients to make at least two family meals at once.  Use nonporous containers like glass dishes, freezer bags, and those foil pans you can get 2 for $1.25 at the  Dollar Tree  to store your meals. Most of these recipes are delicious for up to four months. Herb Roasted Chicken & Vegetables Freezer Meal Image credit Blair Londergran  This dish is not only simple and delicious, but it's also budget-friendly when you use flavor-packed chicken drumsticks. Make sure to thaw this freezer meal in the fridge the night before to speed up oven cooking time. Get the recipe  here . Chicken Fajita
