We all have a appetizer recipe to make and mine is this super easy Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Popper recipe, so when my friends challenged me to come up with a Bacon-Wrapped Appetizer it didn't take me much to decide. My friend Jody introduced us to these babies at a dinner party she hosted and we’ve been making them regularly since. They are dead simple and so much more delicious than the common jalapeno poppers. Bacon just makes everything better doesn't it? As I told you in my Layered Pumpkin ...

Mixed Berry and Spinach Smoothie Bowl
Right now getting in my fruit and veggies is on my mind. In the past I've grabbed a smoothie in a glass and enjoyed it on the go. These days I've found I enjoy a smoothie bowl which is much more like eating a dessert for breakfast or my late night snack. You can make any combination of the smoothie and then top with whatever you're craving. For me this is usually some granola and seeds because I do love to nibble. There are days when I just want to CHEW something and these bowls are jammed ...

Feeling like this is not something I can bear so my husband and I are focused on ...

My poor husband had NO idea how much he would miss his cheesecake.... So when I want to WOW Brad, I just whip up a cheesecake style of dessert and he is a happy man. The classic cheesecake is his favourite but he has also been enjoying different types of cheesecake ...
Bacon Wrapped Omelette – a muffin pan recipe
As the warmer weather is settling in, my socks are gone and I'm planning our summer activities. This means I'm booking camping sites and getting EXCITED!! Some of our fondest family memories take place while we're camping. We get away from it all and take time to bond with one another over fishing, hiking and campfire food. Being out there in the fresh air certainly builds up an appetite and if there's one thing we insist upon while camping, it's good food. We don't hold back, we cook as well ...
