Crunchy Peanut Butter Mix

Lately I have been eating the HECK out of muddy buddies! Sadly, I can finish a whole bag to myself, no problem. So I figured instead of me always going to the store and buying bags upon bags of muddy buddies, I would figure out a way to make them from home.

This little mix is SO much better, only because it has more ingredients in it. So easy and it makes a TON of it!

Great fall colors incorporated too, so it'll be fun to make for the kids to pack in their lunch as a "happy going back to school" snack! I hope you LOVE this as much as I do!

In a large bowl, mix cereals, pretzels, peanut butter candies and peanuts; set aside.

In a 1-quart microwavable bowl, microwave white chocolate and butter uncovered for 1 minutes, stirring once, until melted and chocolate can be stirred smooth. Pour over cereal mixture, stirring until evenly coated.

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...

Ingredients: 1# ground Italian Sausage, browned 1 yellow onion, chopped 2 large carrots, chopped 2 stalks celery, shopped 4 gloves garlic, minced 1T Italian seasoning 2t beef bouillon powder (this is usually in the soup aisle at the grocery store if not in the spice section) 1/2t salt 4 cups beef broth 1/4 cup cornstarch mixed and dissolved in 1/4 cup water 3 cups of half and half 1 - 12oz package three cheese tortellini (or whatever flavor you prefer) 1 package of fresh baby spinach (the smaller bag) Crock it like it's hot: Brown the sausage (and drain) and put it in the Crockpot.
