Mint Chocolate Chip Green Smoothie Recipe

March 9, 2015 By Allie

Mint Chocolate Chip Green Smoothie is a great way to indulge your sweet tooth without feeling guilty. This easy smoothie only contains five ingredients.

In the last year, I have been on a “smoothie kick” as my husband likes to call it. I have bought a couple different types of blenders and all kinds of smoothie ingredients. If I am feeling hungry, I make a smoothie instead of snacking on junk food. Our fridge is also always stocked with yogurt for a quick snack. My toddler is in love with yogurt! She usually eats at least two containers a day. We always have different varieties of yogurt in our fridge since we like to try different kinds. I recently enjoyed the new Müller® Ice Cream Inspired Yogurts and I decided to incorporate it into a Mint Chocolate Chip Green Smoothie recipe….

M&M’s Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches Recipe

March 2, 2015 By Allie

Cookie lovers won’t be able to resist these M&M’s Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches filled with marshmallow buttercream icing.

When I was shopping last week, I took notice to a green bag of M&M’s® at the checkout counter. It caught me by surprise since I have never seen a green bag before. I looked closer to see what kind it was and it said M&M’s® Crispy. I was thrilled since I am a big fan of crispy chocolate. The next time I went to Walmart, I was on a search to find a big bag of M&M’s® Crispy. I was headed to the candy aisle but I ended up finding a M&M’s® display right in front of the store by the checkouts. I was excited to try them for the first time plus I was also planning on making M&M’s® Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches with them.

How to Make Vanilla Extract

January 4, 2015 By Allie

Save money by making your own vanilla extract. You only need alcohol and vanilla beans to easily make homemade vanilla extract.

I bet many of you didn’t even know that you could make your own vanilla extract. You can now stop spending money on those tiny bottles at the grocery store. I got started making my own vanilla extract thanks to Beanilla generously sending me two Vanilla Extract Infusion Extract Kits.

Beanilla’s vanilla extract kit comes with a glass bottle and seven vanilla beans. There are five vanilla bean varieties to choose from: Bourbon-Madagascar, Ugandan, Indian, Indonesian, and Mexican. I choose Madagascar vanilla beans which is the most popular choice. It is great for many baking recipes with its rich and creamy flavor. I also choose the Ugandan vanilla beans for their bold flavor to compliment rich desserts and chocolates. The only thing that isn’t included with the kit is the alcohol….
