Now the chicken flautas would not be so amazing with out Chevy's Jalapeno Jelly! This stuff is AMAZING! Now even if you dont like spicy food like me this jelly is not spicy at all! in fact it is probably one of favorite things in the entire world! It is incredibly versatile I use it on the flautas of course, on cream cheese with chips, or even on nachos! seriously this stuff is amazing! Now that I have discovered this and made a few batches I will definitely be getting my pectin in bulk on Amazon! Here is the link!

How do I stay organized???

Image
So as a stay at home mom with a two-year-old and a new baby on the way how do I keep myself organized? Truthfully as hard as I try I am still perfecting my organization skills... I have my amazing planner with my monthly and weekly planner, as well as a to do list, meal planner, and a chore check list. I fill it out every Sunday and try to stick with my plans to the best of my ability, but life can get in the way. As long as I can get dinner on the table, keep my daughter from breaking anything or getting hurt I count my day a success! Well let me tell me about my wonderful planner! I swear by this thing; it really does help me keep my week organized. I love knowing that I don't have to worry about what my meals are going to be two hours before dinner time because I have it planned the week ahead. This helps me with my Monday morning grocery shopping and my Monday afternoon meal preps! My chore list, and to-do list is really when I have time to get to it during the week i...

Panipopo is a popular Hawaiian dessert; it is a sweet roll with a coconut cream on the bottom. I hate coconut BUT I love this dessert! Ingredients: 1 Package (bridgeford) frozen bread dough (thawed) 2 cans of coconut milk 1 can of cream of coconut 1tsp coconut extract (optional) Directions: Knead dough and make them into dough balls. Place dough in a 12x16 inch pan. Let the dough rise for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. (or until the dough has doubled in size). Mix coconut milk, cream of coconut, and coconut extract.

The BEST Chicken Flautas

Image
If you haven't ever been to Chevy's Fresh Mex Restaurant then you are truly missing out. They have some seriously delicious Mexican food! my personal favorite is their chicken Flautas! I have found and a dapted a recipe for these that I have now made at least five times! I am addicted! The first time that I made them I made a single batch and it was not enough so I have now decided that each time I make them I will be making a double if not triple batch! They are way easier to make then you would think, the are usually fried in the restaurant BUT I hate deep frying anything in my house because of the small and the clean up. Because of that I bake them and they are much better this way! (in my personal opinion of course!) You could also adapt this yourself if you wanted to by using other types of meat or maybe even making the vegetarian if you choose! The recipe calls for salsa and if you wanted to get really creative you could make your own and use that instead of jarred sals...

Oven Sliders

Image
These little sliders have become a staple in my house; they are so easy to make and so yummy! You can add a variety of things to them to make them different and they are great for using up left overs! We had pulled pork one night and after 2 days of pulled pork and rice we just couldn't eat it any more SO we put the pork into these sliders! I also use ham and turkey lunch meat in these because we always have that on hand and this is such a quick and easy dinner recipe. It is also a game day favorite because it is so easy to make in bulk and they can be quite filling! Oven Sliders Ingredients: 1 stick of butter (I use less it all just depends on how much sauce you want) 1 1/2 tablespoons Mustard 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire 1 1/2 teaspoons minced onion Your choice of meat Your choice of sliced cheese (I like white cheeses) Your choice of rolls (I always use kings Hawaiian but I have also used dinner rolls) Directions: Slice rolls and place the bottoms in a 13x9 pan ...
