Quick and Easy Caramel Sauce

Caramel sauce is the perfect topping for a scoop of ice cream in the summer, and it only takes a few minute to make!

Chia Quinoa Breakfast Parfait

I am generally an eggs for breakfast kind of girl, but every so often I like to mix it up and enjoy a nice, cold, fruity breakfast.

Vanilla Chia Seed Pudding

I am a huge fan of chia seeds, but only when they are hydrated.  I know a lot of people like to sprinkle them on top of food for some crunch, which can be delicious, but I prefer to either turn them into a gel that I can drink, or turn them into a delicious pudding!  This makes an easy and delicious breakfast - a perfect way to start the day!

Gooey Confetti Cake Bars

Cake brownies are one of my favorite things to make, just because they are so simple.  However, I always think it's fun for the kids when you have brightly colored treats, so these non-brownie (i.e. blondie) bars are the perfect dessert.

Torched Cherry Cheesecake

I absolutely love cheesecake.  Once you have done it a few times, you really get a feel for how ingredients should look at you progress through the steps.  It is so versatile, and can be flavored in so many incredible ways.

Rum Cherry Sauce

There's something about fruit topping that adds that little something extra to desserts.  It so easy to make, and goes well with a number of different desserts, from cake to ice cream, or even some yogurt.

Orange Dream Salad

In our house, no special meal was complete without some form of fluffy, fruity, Jell-O salad.  We never had any real recipes for these, but we all knew them by color.  Pink salad is made every year, green is an occasional treat, and orange is a new favorite.  Plus, I personally think that all marshmallows should be lit on fire at least once, so I like to torch the ones on top.  This is optional, of course, but the flavor is so incredible!

Warming Apple Crisp

Pumpkins get a lot of attention in the fall, but we can't forget about the classics, like apple crisp!
