Cheesy cake


So this cheesecake was one I made for Chad's birthday because he is a Toblerone lover. It actually turned out really well and not as sweet as I thought.

Here is the link to the recipe

As far as cheesecake goes this is a really easy one to make and you don’t need a lot of ingredients. One thing I did notice is that it didn’t come out quite as tall as the picture makes it look, but I think that helps with cutting down the sweetness. You could easily change out the cheesecake recipe for one that you have in your repertoire and just use the toppings.

Overall it was a crowd pleaser and it was put my back pocket for an easy go to dessert that I can make the day before if I need to.

Power Balls

I have recently been trying hard to get healthier and loose some weight. The thought of engagement photos, trying on wedding dresses, and general attention in my direction is something new and frightening for me. I hate photos of myself, luckily we have a great photographer who is helping me be less tragic in front of the camera. Anyways...on to why you are here. I have started doing the BodyrockTV workouts and following their blog. I am sharing one recipe I found that both my fiancĂ© and I love. Power Balls by Zuzana. You can find the original post here .    They are all natural no chemicals or processed foods packed full of nutrients.   Ingredients: 1 cup of oats 2 cups of almond meal (I buy almonds and put them through the food processor or grinder) 3 teaspoons of baking powder 4 tablespoons of raw honey 4 tablespoons of coconut oil melted 1 cup cooked carrots Crushed almonds (or any other nut you like) Preheat the oven to 350 Pu...

Lunches to go

Often we like to make quiche for lunch because it will feed us for a few days. Normally we make our quiche with no crust just to be healthier but because of the longer hours I am working we find there are longer waits in between meals and the carbs help the meal go a bit farther. These two quiches from start to finish cost about $8 to make and will feed both of us for at least four lunches which is $1 for each lunch. In our quiche we have: Zucchini Red pepper Spinach Ham Mozza cheese Salt & Pepper And the obvious egg What I like most about this is it is quick and we can make it on a Sunday night and then have lunches for the rest of the week. Otherwise I end up being too tired to make a lunch at night and I never have enough time in the morning. This means I end up spending unnecessary money on lunch.

My newest obsession

I asked for this book for Christmas and when I got it I was super disappointed that all of the recipes were for ice cream machines. I put the book away for months because I was mad I couldn't use it. Luckily I also received a gift card for Home Outfitters and after 5 months it hit me, buy a ice cream maker. So I used my GC and bought a Cuisinart ice cream maker. The difference in the quality is amazing and knowing everything that is in it feels good too. I bought $6 worth of ingredients and the rest was just stuff I had around the house and it made 3 quarts of ice cream. A big savings in my book. The book is jenis splendid ice creams at home by by Jeni Britton Bauer and the Cuisinart ice cream maker was obviously from Home Outfitters and was $69.99.
