Easy Buffalo Shrimp Tacos Recipe

Buffalo Shrimp Tacos are the perfect dinner for busy nights. Shrimp cooked in wing sauce, wrapped in a tortilla, and piled high with your favorite toppings is the way to go.

Tacos are such an easy meal to make. Plus, everyone loves tacos, so you can't go wrong with a taco dinner. Especially when it falls on taco Tuesday, am I right?

Now, don't get me wrong. We enjoy taco Thursdays, taco Sundays, and taco Mondays too. Basically, any kind of taco is a win no matter what day of the week it is.

I love how quick these easy shrimp tacos are to make. The shrimp literally takes less than 10 minutes to cook. Then I fill bowls with the toppings that I prepped ahead of time, and let everyone go to town filling their tacos with their favorite toppings. [Read more...]

Pumpkin S'mores Rice Krispie Treats

These Pumpkin S'mores Rice Krispie Treats will be the first Halloween treat to go at any party. Chocolate, pumpkin, and marshmallow makes these easy no bake desserts so delicious.

The other day I was looking through my recipes, and I realized that I have only shared two other rice Krispie treats with you since last fall!

Only two, people! I am seriously questioning my rice krispie treat love right now. I thought I was a die hard fan, but the records show I have been slacking in this department.

I bought a few bags of holiday candies and marshmallows the other day, and now I have so many fun ideas going through my head. Finally, I decided to just make an easy Rice Krispie treat.

But at the last minute, I decided to jazz it up with some s'mores flavor. It's me we are talking about after all.

Out of that list of breakfast choices, I'm thinking that this easy pumpkin danish is the healthiest one. Pumpkin is full of vitamins, and my Nutella container says it is healthy, so I'm going with it.

Easy Pumpkin Potato Corn Chowder Recipe

A bowl of this Pumpkin Potato Corn Chowder is a delicious and comforting soup to serve this fall. You can have this hearty soup on your dinner table in under 30 minutes.

I have been wanting to recreate this pumpkin soup for years. Years ago my husband and I went on a mission trip to Haiti with a group from our church.

You can read about the posts on Mission: Haiti and Lessons from Haiti if you want to know more about what we did and saw. It was such an awesome and eye opening experience for me. It is one thing to see the poverty from pictures and TV, but experiencing it first hand breaks your heart.

It was a very good reminder to be even more thankful for the things and people that God has put in my life. I also realized how much I can really do without and how much we waste on a daily basis.

Happy first day of fall from the sunshine state. It's still hot here, but at least the humidity has kind of gone away. Or I've just totally gotten used to it after living here for a few years.

Either way, it's officially fall, and I'm getting the itch to start baking all the pumpkin things. So, I'm not about to let some heat stop me from my favorite baking time of year.

It's time to bake more of this Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread and make a few more jars of Homemade Pumpkin Butter.

Now that we are officially into the fall season, I want cool weather all the time. Bright colored leaves, chilly mornings, sweatshirts, jeans, bonfires, apple orchards...I want it all.

But life in Florida does not accommodate those wants, so I have my air conditioner cranked down low and a sweatshirt on pretending that it is fall here while I sip on a White Chocolate Pumpkin Latte. Yes, I know I'm all kinds of strange. It's ok.

Then I made the mistake of doing some housework. Every six months or so, I have to deep clean the kids bathroom because teenagers just do not clean as thoroughly as adults. Bye, bye being chilly. But at least the bathroom looks better.

Frosted Cinnamon Apple Bars

These Frosted Cinnamon Apple Bars are full of fresh apples and cinnamon chips and are topped with a creamy cinnamon frosting. Homemade oatmeal bars are a delicious treat to enjoy this fall.

Sometimes you just need to stop and take a look around you. There are so many things in our lives to be thankful for, but we tend to get busy and not notice many of these things.

I am so guilty of doing this in so many areas of my life. But when I get discourage or down about things going on, I try to open up my eyes and find the happy things in life to give me a better perspective on my life.

I have a loving husband who fully supports all this crazy baking that I do from our home. As I get busier with projects and deadlines, he has been stepping in and helping me out by doing social media and by making dinners some nights.

We have three kids who are getting bigger and helping out more without us always asking them. Oh, don't get me wrong, they still try to get away with things and forget to do their chores each week, but they are also at such a fun stage in life.

They say and do the most hilarious things now to make us laugh. God has definitely blessed us with easy going kids who get along.

Now that pumpkin spice season is here, I have enjoyed a few too many drinks at our local coffee shop. I'm all for supporting businesses, but I need to conserve my time and money when buying a cup of Joe every few days. Is anyone else with me?

Enter in my homemade pumpkin spice latte. With just a few ingredients, you can be sipping your own healthy latte in minutes. The best part is that you can stay in your pajamas or workout clothes, and no one will ever know.

Since fall weather will not be coming soon here in Florida, I have been keeping my house at a chilly temperature in the morning to sip my pumpkin latte. As long as it is cool in the house and I look at the pumpkin decorations, I can trick myself into believing fall has arrived.

But then I go outside and realize the heat and humidity are still very much here. Until then, the thermostat is set low, the slippers and flannel pajamas are on, and the pumpkin spice lattes are still happening.

I am sitting here waiting impatiently for fall weather to come to Florida. I realize that I will probably be waiting for some time because it is still 90 degrees here!

Seriously, bring on the cooler days so I can wear sweatshirts and leggings and can sit outside without bugs dive bombing my body every second! Fall is definitely my favorite season of all.

I've decided that all the sweets I "test" in my kitchen must make my blood sweeter than my husband's. We were standing outside yesterday, and I had four bites in a matter of seconds.

He kept trying to say there were no bugs out there, but I had the welts to prove it. I guess that just proves I'm the sweetest, right? [Read more...]
