The Easiest And Tastiest Dessert Ever Known To Man

A friend of mine once told me the crumbles are her favorite dessert, because they mix smooth textures with crunchy textures.  I like to think that crumbles are one of my favorite desserts too, except for me it’s because the crumble works so nicely under a scoop of creamy, decadent vanilla ice cream.

Which goes to show, in a fun way, that we can be different but still understand each other perfectly, right? Haha! Whatever your reason to love crumbles is, it’s the right one. If you’ve never made a crumble before, now is the perfect time to start because this recipe has only 6 ingredients.  For that reason, it’s totally unintimidating to dive right into making this recipe on any day of the week.  And I am not just saying that!

It’s simple to put together, and so fast to whip up, you’ll be able to make it on a weeknight… and still have energy at the end of the day to clean up the kitchen dishes (you know, that ONE pan that the crumble went in.)  Totally worth it, right? My whole family certainly think so! Especially when I serve this with that ice cream I was talking about!

Quick Tip: Peel peaches easily by adding them for about 30 seconds to a boiling pot of water.

Okay, imagine taking Nilla Wafers.  Typically, you would think you’re going to add those to a banana pudding recipe.  There’s nothing wrong with that delicious combination, however, imagine adding it to a different recipe with… get this… lemons!  Adding lemons to the pudding, plus added berries to the top, made this pudding so perfectly complete.

Are you getting excited yet?  LEMONS!  I know, I’m going to have to calm down a bit.  I was so surprised that this recipe added lemons and lemon juice and so excited when I finished the recipe and served it.  The flavors were vibrant.  They danced upon my tongue and felt so refreshing given the summer heat.  I served this to my husband, who isn’t normally a fan of puddings.  He gobbled it up and I knew that I needed to share it with y’all.

Quick Tip: Any berry is perfect for this recipe.  Just pick up your favorite from the grocery store to personalize this recipe.

When I was a little girl, we used to visit my grandparents up north.  They lived on a farm in a small town. I loved visiting because their farm was so different than my suburban home.  There were cows and horses, sheep and chickens.  There were tons of places to run and play, perfect for a kiddo growing up.

Down the mountain and in town, there was a little soda shop that sold blueberry ice cream.  It was absolutely delicious and for years, I’ve searched for an ice cream shop that had the same deliciousness.  In case you’re curious, I can’t find any that are as delicious as the one I had when I was a kid.  When I stumbled upon this recipe, I knew my search was over.  Welcome to my summer!

The best recipes are the ones that are really versatile.  Marinades that can be used in chicken, or pork, or beef are the best because you’ll only need to have one recipe in mind and the same ingredients on hand.  The best thing about this BBQ sauce recipe is that it’s just as versatile as any recipe you’ve ever seen.

This sauce works well for meat, but it also works well for BBQ chicken pizza (as a layer of pizza sauce, of course) and for dipping for chicken nuggets.  That’s the best kind of sauce ever!  Keep these ingredients on hand so you can whip this up any time, you will absolutely not regret the sweet and savory addition to your recipe!  Versatility wins, store bought bottled sauce loses.  Yum!

Quick Tip: Add red pepper flakes for a little spice in addition to this sweet flavor.

I don’t know who thinks of fabulous recipes like this, but you can’t go wrong when you add beer, cheese, and gnocchi together.  I remember the first time I had gnocchi, I was confused about what it was!  Was is potato, was it pasta?  In the end I told myself, “Who the heck cares?  It’s delicious!”

Gnocchi can be a challenge to make all by itself, but you can make this recipe by buying a store bought package of gnocchi so you can take your soup up another notch without all the time it traditionally takes to make gnocchi by hand.  This recipe has added kick with the asiago cheese, which pairs well with beer in this diverse and salty soup.  You will not be disappointed with this recipe and I’m so excited to share it with you.

Quick Tip: Use a counter top blender if you don’t have an immersion blender.

 Imagine being invited to a BBQ.  You start to think about what the BBQ is going to serve and instantly you think of hot dogs, right?  Hot dogs are the meaning of BBQ I think, and you start to crave the hot dog.  A BBQ isn’t a BBQ unless you have a proper hot dog! Imagine going to the BBQ and they don’t have any hot dogs!  Well, that just won’t do.  You’ll need to fill that craving somehow.

That’s where this recipe comes in.  It’s the perfect hot dog recipe that will fulfill your craving and fill your tummy.  This recipe is perfect for elevating the BBQ hot dog experience, while not neglecting the classic flavors you’ve come to expect out of a good grilled hot dog.

Quick Tip: The hot dogs can take roughly 11 minutes to cook, so prep the sauce and relish early.

The difference between a good pasta salad and a great pasta salad?  An unexpected ingredient that takes you by surprise!  Don’t you love finding recipes where you expect one flavor, but another flavor comes sneaking in and kicks you in the face?  That’s this delicious recipe wherein you add a bit of mango.

This is not your mom’s pasta salad, and it’s better than anything you’ll buy in the deli section of the grocery store.  The mango adds a slight sweetness your taste bugs were not expecting.  And that, my friends, it what makes a recipe great!  That added level of oomph that surprises you and yet, thrills your senses that keeps you digging in for more after each bite.
