Sopapilla Cheesecake

So here I am thinking to myself, "I need something sweet" (as usual). But I didn't want chocolate...so what do I do? I searched the web for some different sweets to make and stumbled upon this DELICIOUS treat.

Have you ever had the Sopapilla's from the Mexican restaurants? Man are those good! Little chip like things, with cinnamon and sugar, honey and whipped cream? Sometimes if you're lucky they drizzle chocolate sauce on top too!! Let me tell you, HEAVEN in your mouth (well, at least mine).

So when I saw this recipe title, I was immediately drooling. What could be better than a Sopapilla AND Cheesecake put into one?! Nothing...absolutely nothing.

Extremely simple to make. Anyone can do it! It'll be a family favorite and crowd pleaser, that's for sure!!

Easiest Quinoa "Salad"

Who doesn't like a 5-ingredient dinner/snack? Granted, there could be a little more prep time depending on what you have laying around but for a mom that's always on the go with Baseball Practice and who knows what else...this is perfect. I cooked my Quinoa in my rice cooker, it was super easy to just dump it in there and walk away. If you don't have a rice cooker, just follow the instructions on the back of the bag. You can find Quinoa in the rice section of the grocery store usually, if not there check by the Organics. Side note : Whether I cook my Quinoa in a pot or in my rice cooker, I always cook it in Chicken Broth, adds more flavor! You'll notice the difference between water and Chicken Broth, I promise! If you have some cooked chicken already, perfect. If not, I usually get a rotisserie chicken and just shred it. Luckily, Matthew's mom has been buying me whole chickens and cooking them in the crockpot for me (because she's awesome) and then sending...

Stir in flour, salt & baking soda (it gets pretty stiff). Add white chocolate chips & cranberries. (at this point i just hand stirred everything in instead of having the dough get stuck to the whisks on the electric mixer). Drop by rounded teaspoons on baking sheet, space them about...
