Last weekend I went to Omaha and my dear friends, Claire and Nathan, were so excited to share this place with me. They took me to Over Easy for brunch, and they raved about these hashbrown rounds. I was excited about it because they were excited.

Apple Salad: Twix and Butterscotch
I made this salad sometime in the beginning of July. And I didn’t write down the recipe because I thought it would be easy to remember, and frankly that I would be sharing it a lot earlier than the middle of August. However, I’m still sharing it with you all because I think one of the best things with salads like this is that they’re easily modified.
Let’s Talk About Mini Cupcakes
The last two weeks I’ve worked with mini cupcakes. They are fun because they are bite sized—but they are a lot of work.
Cheesecake Lemon Bars
Lemon bars are one of my favorite desserts. And I love cheesecake. So when I saw several pins on Pinterest that combined these to delicious things, I had to try my own version of it!
Breakfast Parfait
I’m only calling this “breakfast” because I think it best fits the traditional ideas of breakfast. This recipe is also great for a snack—especially if you missed lunch, or you had a day where appointments made it impossible for you to get in three balanced meals. I’m suggesting this as a meal supplement only because this recipe makes so much parfait that it might spoil your supper. But you could easily cut it in half—or you could split it up into smaller servings.
Easy Taco Bake
This is a new recipe for us. I found the original recipe on Pinterest, and made some minor adjustments. In the future, I think I would make a few more changes, but overall we enjoyed this recipe quite a bit.
Cherry and Peach Dump Cake
This is a fun and easy dessert to make when you’re looking for something sweet but don’t want to spend a ton of time on it. Also, I don’t like the name of this dessert, but I don’t know what else to call it. Dump Cake just doesn’t sound good though.
Leftover Cupcake Trifle
I decided that the leftovers would make a good trifle. They would be easy to cut up and add to a bowl with other layers of ingredients.
Naan Pizza
One of my favorite things is making homemade pizza out of things that aren’t traditionally pizza—french bread, pita, hamburger buns, tortillas, you get the picture.
Spicy Wonton Poppers
After doing some research, I looked at what sounded good and what also wouldn’t take too much time. I decided to try something in the vein of jalapeño poppers—and something that would give me something new to try. This is what I came up with in the end!
Delta Kappa Gamma Cupcake Sale
You may have noticed that I did not post at all last week. I took the week off, not because I needed a break or didn’t feel like writing, but because I was busy! Every night last week was spent baking cupcakes, whipping up frosting, or decorating.
Strawberry Lemonade Cupcakes
This year we made Strawberry Lemonade cupcakes and they turned out delicious. We dressed up on box of lemon cake mix, a box of lemon pudding, and a box of strawberry Jello into something that surprised me. We doubled the recipe so there would be enough for both of us to take to work, but I’ll give you the instructions for a single batch.
…With Cherries on Top
This year I was determined to make his cake red. What better way is there to do that than cherries? And my dad just so happens to love cherry pie filling. I designed the rest of the cake around that idea. I settled on a white chocolate cake with a creamy cheesecake filling and buttercream frosting.
Mandarin Orange and Banana Salad
Mom suggested we make Lorelle’s salad for Easter this year to take to dinner with my dad’s family. It’s something adults and kids will both enjoy.
Oreo Cheesecake Surprise Cupcakes
Over the weekend I asked my brother what kind of cake he wanted. He said he wanted something chocolate and something cheesecake. It didn’t take me long to come up with an idea—and a way to incorporate a yummy surprise.
Easy Chicken and Mushroom Alfredo Casserole
Thursday morning rolled around and I knew I wanted to do something easy. Later that afternoon my coworker told me she really wanted something with Alfredo sauce. It occurred to me that I could make a casserole with an Alfredo base. Easy. And delicious.
Nutella Cheesecake Puppy Chow
The flavor is good. The execution was alright. Maybe you’ll have better luck than me! Give it a try and let me know how it goes! Enjoy!
