Who doesn’t love ice cream?? Come on, name one person who doesn’t??? 😉 So giving away the machine needed to create the GREATEST treat EVER was a NO-Brainer! But before I announce the winners, l wanted to share my latest ice cream creation. About Ice Cream Makers I used my compressor ice cream maker and I…
This is the PERFECT thing to eat on days like today in Louisiana! After making the REAL Watermelon Jell-O a few weeks ago, I still had leftover watermelon in the fridge. Last year I bought a cheap snow cone maker and paper cones to experiment with making a substitute to the sugar laden syrup you purchase at the…
Happy National Ice Cream Sandwich Day! I know, I know, it’s getting a little crazy with all of these National Holidays! National holidays only really count when you get the day off with pay! lol (Mom’s never get days off!) This is my version of the yummy treat! Nothing new in terms of recipes, but…
This cheesecake is FULL of flavor without the carbs! The crust full of nuts and just a bit of salt is better than any traditional cheesecake crust I have ever have.
I am on my last few pints of blueberries for the season and this makes me VERY SAD! I have been spoiled for the past few years to be able to pick fresh blueberries from my MIL’s bushes! Nothing’s better than eating them right off the bush! (No, pesticides are used so don’t worry!) Here…
Summer is here!! In Louisiana that means heat, humidity and Watermelons!! Washington Parish has some of the sweetest! (Yes, Louisiana has parishes not counties… weird I know)! Watermelon is one of my favorites, and I always anxiously await its arrival every Summer! Unfortunately, I could eat my weight in watermelon, so I often skip out…
This is so exciting! I can’t believe how fast Satisfying Eats is growing and how far it is spreading across the Globe!! I never thought people all over the United States and Canada, the UK, or as far away as Australia would be making my recipes and buying my cookbook and THAT my friends, is…
I apologize for teasing you with this ‘Nana Puddin’ recipe for so long. I had some type of “digestive distress” for about 2 weeks which was less than fun on top of chasing after 2 little guys.. well, they keep me busy! As you can see in one of the pictures, my Hunter loves to…
I love watermelon but I find myself overeating it when given the opportunity! My solution?? Make popsicles! This is a great way to use up any extra watermelon so you don’t feel pressured to eat it all so hat it’s not wasted. This is a “No-Recipe, Recipe” meaning you could do this with any fruit or…
At last, the Dairy-Free and Chocolate counterpart to the Dessert Pizza I posted last week! I am not sure which one I like better! This is my first time making my “Sugar” Cookie (from the Cookbook), Dairy-Free. The only change I made was using less fat or in this case, virgin coconut oil. This made…
This recipe will not disappoint! Once again I am pulling out another “treasure” from the Satisfying Eats Cookbook! This “Sugar” Cookie recipe is delicious and turning it into a crust was so easy! Feel free to use any fruit you would like or arrange the berries in any pattern. I thought the flag pattern would…
It’s that time of year, blueberry season!! I am so blessed to have unlimited blueberries for the months of June and July! My mil has 2 HUGE bushes (over 10 feet tall) that she graciously lets me help myself too! This recipe is a great way to enjoy yummy blueberries! I also wanted to post…
As most of you know, I have had a rough week. Not sure if it was a demonic stomach bug, foodbourn illness or what, but it was 7 days ofmisery! I am feeling much better today, just getting my energy back and catching up on house work so not a lot of time to cook.…
If you missed my last blog post, I am currently giving up dairy and nuts for a while. Variety is the spice of life and I need a little spice! 😉 Well, if I can have this ice cream, who needs dairy?! Really! It’s delicious! You will need just a little patience though because the mixture…
There is nothing more yummy than Little Debbie’s Snack Cakes. Yes, they are garbage in a box but they are good in their own weird way. Maybe it is due to the long list of ingredients that manipulate your taste buds and deprive you of any nutrients??? Check out the ingredient’s in Ol’ Debbie’s Fudge…
This picture is pretty much self explanatory! I have recreated Little Debbie’s Fudge Brownies and they are AWESOME!!!! Would you like to see the recipe??
Heaven on a plate! This Old Fashioned Chocolate Cream Pie would be something my grandmother would make! The chocolate pudding filling and whipped cream topping remind me of diner food or the pie I used to get a Waffle House….this pie is Old School Baby! 😉 I did choose to use a nut crust which is…

There has been a bit of confusion over a recipe I posted about 1 year ago. It was actually a recipe that come about from 3 batches of broken ganache! As the old saying goes, I made lemon-aide out of lemons! Well, not only have I simplified the ganache recipe, but I have now simplifying the…
This Cookie Cake is AMAZING!!! In all honesty, I have never purchased a Cookie Cake at the mall. I have in the past purchased a chocolate chip cookie but the thought of a mega cookie and all that sugar and carbs which is clearly not good for health…
