Creamy Greek Yogurt Maple Dijon Salad Dressing

That's a very long title for this very simple to put together dressing!    It really doesn't get much easier than this, gather your ingredients, a few quick measurements and then shake until combined.   Easy peasy! 

Banana Bread Waffles

We are big 'breakfast for dinner' fans.   Our go-to is usually Belgian waffles, but we've been getting bored with the classic recipe.   I found this recipe on the Mother Thyme blog a while back.   I've got a stockpile of frozen bananas, perfect for this recipe.     I put them in the bowl I'd be using for the wet ingredients, defrosted them in the microwave and then mashed them.

Pineapple Upside-Down Donuts

I've been a member of the Taste of Home Community for over 13 years.  One of the fun posts there is a weekly challenge where an ingredient is given and you are supposed to try a new recipe using it.   This week's ingredient is pineapple.   

Southern Bird Dogs

We're eating lots of poultry lately, and I've started hearing the grumbling from my family.   With the grill covered with snow and ice again (yay New England!), my options were a little limited.    Staring at the package of chicken tenders in my fridge, I wondered what I could do to them that would be exciting and different.   I had a few hot dog rolls and 4 strips of bacon that needed to be used up.

Gelatin Juice for April Fool's Day

Get ready to have some fun this April Fool's Day! Why not whip up a batch of gelatin juice for a playful prank on the kids that’s both silly and delicious? It’s a tasty way to bring some laughs to the day! Realizing his fruit punch is actually Strawberry Jello... Usually I put together a more elaborate prank and get him with it earlier in the day.   This year I let him think I forgot, and then we sat down to dinner. Prepare Jello as directed on package, pour into a glass, add the straw and let it set up.  If you try and add the straw after it doesn't look as convincing.
