Pixx #23:
Pinterest has been such a fun way for me to organize my hobbies, recipes, styles I love and much more. Now let’s be honest, I have tried my fair share of recipes from Pinterest that have been your classic Pinterest-fails…however, I have also found some AMAZING recipes that I always come back to. I hope you enjoy these recipes and take time to make a few of them. I promise you will find them delicious!
#1- Pink Fluff Fruit Salad: This fruit salad is a family favorite and it is SOOO EASY! My little toddlers even enjoy it! You can use frozen berries or fresh berries, either tastes delicious. I actually tried this salad first at a baby shower where they were making food that was all “pink” for a baby girl. I came home and tried the recipe myself, and our family has loved it ever since. Enjoy!
#2- These meatballs are hands down my very favorite meatballs! Now I will tell you I love a little spice so if you don’t love spice these may be too much for you (or you can leave out the sriracha sauce). If you do love some spice…I promise you will want to double this recipe! I also love that this recipe is perfect for meal preps. I personally love them with rice but I am sure regular noodles would taste great as well.
This is by far my favorite dessert out there! And what’s amazing..it doesn’t have any chocolate (because I love my chocolate). This dessert has the perfect amount of lemon and sugar and cream for such a refreshing flavoring. I would choose this over a birthday cake any day. In fact, I may go make it today…just looking at it makes me crave it. It’s not a hard recipe, I actually use walnuts or almonds for the crust and it tastes great. So if you are looking for a tasty dessert that all palettes will enjoy…I promise this is the one to make:)
My husband and I enjoy having a garden. We have found that our very favorite item from the garden are green beans. The beans just taste crisp and delicious fresh from the garden. As I was looking for a variety of ways to cook the green beans, I came across this recipe and it is our very favorite way to eat green beans. It has a slight garlic flavoring, with a taste of chicken broth[. We load on the salt and pepper and it tastes wonderful. We invited friends for dinner once and I prepared this green bean recipe and our friends said that was their favorite part of the meal. The best part…you can still feel quite healthy eating it because green beans are packed with so many great nutrients.
#5- Jalapeno Popper Chicken Casserole:
Let’s just say this is one delicious casserole. This is a new favorite and I have only made it one time but I am converted enough to post it because we loved it! Again, if you love a bit of spice this is the perfect recipe. Surprisingly, my little kids even liked the areas that didn’t have too much jalapeño in it. The recipe is quite easy to follow and I think you will enjoy the delicious flavor.
#6-Copy Cat Olive Garden Zuppa Toscana Soup:
This soup is by far my favorite soup. I had never thought of putting Kale in soup before, but it’s actually one of my favorite parts of the soup! The hot sausage gives it a bit of a spicy flavoring that you will love. We have actually used different types of potatoes and the recipe still tasted great. Give yourself about an hour to make this soup, or you could put it in the crockpot as well. This is one of my favorite Pinterest finds!
So this treat is delicious and a great Christmas treat to hand out to neighbors. Its pretty simple and to the point AND it makes a lot. I’m yet to meet anyone who doesn’t like this treat. You will definitely be on a “sugar high” after you eat this, but it may be worth it:)
I absolutely love this french toast bake. I will remind you that I have to eat gluten free so I do have to substitute the texas toast for gluten free toast and it still tastes amazing! It is something that needs to be refrigerated overnight so prepare for that. I would say you could eat it with or without sugar because it has such a wonderful sweet flavor already. Your kids and family will devour this french toast I promise!
I found all of these recipes on Pinterest even though I gave you the direct link on this post. I have many more recipes I could add, but I will save that for another post. I hope you enjoy some fun new recipes. And even better..will you share with me? What is your favorite Pinterest recipe?
