Homemade Granola

Man, oh man. I just love homemade granola! I love the crunchiness of it. I like how it has just the right textures and levels of yumminess.  Let me show you how to make your own granola and you’ll never look back!

Cheeseburger Pizza

It was love at first sight
me and this cheeseburger pizza. Okay, so Barry and the kids ate some too. We were all quite smitten. It makes you do crazy things and act all nutso. However, the deliciousness makes it all worth the weirdo behavior. And because I love you, I’m sharing the recipe – so that way I won’t be nutso alone.

Chocolate Chip Banana Snack Cake

Kitchen Therapy

Getting in the kitchen and baking/cooking is therapy to me. Well, up to a point. When I happen to be worried about something or I’m just out of sorts, getting my hands into flour and batter just really helps me – and it’s cheaper than a therapist.  But then there are those times when getting the kitchen makes me feel like I NEED A THERAPIST. I burn everything and throw a hissy fit. The smoke alarm goes off (again). I get mad and throw a dish. Annie says, “what is THAT?” So, yeah. But baking is still cheaper than a therapist. A chocolate chip banana cake to therapy session is about to begin!

Oatmeal – 50 Ways to Eat It

It should come as no surprise that I love oats. Hardly a day passes where I don’t have it in some shape or fashion, be it in traditional oatmeal, smoothies, or granola. Speaking of “passes,” ahem – you should be eating it more often if you’re having problems with “passes.” Hahahahahaha! Oatmeal recipes are everywhere, but not all of them are good…let’s just be honest.

Is there such a thing as too many oatmeal recipes? NO! I even have oatmeal as its own Pinterest board.

Doughnut Scones

I’m really enjoying cooking through my cookbook stash
and there doesn’t seem to be an end in sight.  Especially when you consider that I have eBook cookbooks as well. Is there such a thing as a cookbook hoarder? On the next TLC: Cookbook Hoarders – Try to pry those cookbooks from their cold, dead fingers.

First off, let’s get something out of the way. The correct way to spell it (according to me) is DOUGHNUT. Not DONUT. Using DONUT makes it sound too much like “Do Not.” Do not what? Eat this? I don’t think so, pal.  You better believe I’m going to eat that DOUGH, NUT. Ha, ha! [Read more…]

Granola Munch Mix

What says “Merry Christmas, I love you,” more than a quart full of granola? Well, not much I tell ya, not much. Money says, “I love you.” But granola says, “I love you and want to fill your tummy.” Now, if I could figure out how to get someone to give me granola AND money, I’d be all set.

Let’s be honest here for a minute. If you would like someone to give you a gift that requires dusting, please raise your hand. Anyone? Anyone? Well, then how can YOU in turn go out and buy someone a little doodad and call it quits? Unless that doodad also comes with a lifetime supply of dusting services, I probably don’t want it. Amen and amen. [Read more…]

20 Nutty Recipes

I love nuts
from my head down to my
errrrrrrrrrrr. Um, yeah. I love nuts. They are a tasty treat – a delicious snack – a good side – a nice topping – a good dinner. Wait, that’s not just me who eats nuts for a meal, right?

Around these parts, we keep nuts on hand all the time – because sometimes Mama gets a brain freeze and can’t think of something for snack. Out come the nuts! Not to mention that they make a delicious garnish. Am I the only one who sometimes just eats the garnish? I’m not a very formal person. [Read more…]

Crock Pot Trail Mix

Hold on tight to your knickers – I’m about to blow your mind. First, I brought you Crock Pot Candied Nuts. Then, I busted out the big guns and presented Crock Pot Cocoa Almonds. And now I have exceeded awesomeness with CROCK POT TRAIL MIX. I know. I can hardly believe it myself
if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Except in this case. This is true, my friends. A true culinary delight.

And if you haven’t figured it out yet, I enjoy saying “culinary delight.” It makes me feel official and stuff. So, expect to see it a lot with all my other favorite phrases: rock my face off, thebomb.com, booya, and don’t eat my chocolate. [Read more…]

Crock Pot Cocoa Almonds

These Crockpot Cocoa Almonds are so easy and so yummy! All you need to do is cook, stir, cook, and then dump! Then hide them from the kids!

You know those cocoa dusted almonds you can buy at the store? Yeah – they’re stinkin’ delicious.

When I give them to Annie, she acts like I’ve handed her the moon – and I’m the best mommy EVAH. Cool feeling
not so cool of a feeling when they’re all gone though. Bummer.

Also, it’s not so cool when you read the ingredient label. Yeah. Save yourself and don’t read it. Thanks.

I’ll just tell you that you probably don’t want to know what’s in there. DUDE! They’re COCOA ALMONDS
why do you need to add all that other mess??

Couldn’t you save yourself a buck and nix the weirdo ingredients? This is Stacy, trying to save the big companies some cash. You’re welcome. [Read more…]

Homemade Freezer Smoothies

Y’all know that I like to save a buck here and there. Some call me cheap. I call me frugal. Okay, so sometimes I call myself cheap too. But the first time I made these freezer smoothies, I was just tickled pink with myself. Making them at home is SO EASY!

If you use fruit that’s in season and homemade yogurt or yogurt you found on sale, this is a very cost effective breakfast/snack.  Who needs to buy a pre-made bag of smoothie when these are so quick and easy? Not me, says I.

Plus, I know what’s in it….no weird ingredients or food colorings added. I still have no idea why the food industry feels like they need to put food coloring in everything. But before I get on a soap-box, maybe I should direct my thoughts elsewhere. You’re welcome. [Read more…]
