  • 4 Favorite Kid Friendly Trail Mixes - I haven't met a kid that wouldn't gladly eat some dried fruit and nuts when it was mixed in among some of his/her other favorite snack foods. These trail mixes are easy to bag into single servings for lunches, after school snacks, or even for traveling.
  • Appetizer Veggie Pizza - Whether it's for a party at the office or a holiday gathering, this is a perfect appetizer. Topped with fresh vegetables and cheese, you just can't go wrong.
  • Appetizers & Beverages - Try these tasty appetizers and thirst quenching beverages for your next get together. Strawberry Blossoms and Sunrise Mimosas are just a couple of the tasty treats waiting for you here.
  • Camping Breakfasts - One of my favorite childhood memories is of my Dad cooking breakfast while we were camping. He would whip up scrambled eggs, fry bacon and "toast" bread over the fire or the camp stove. It always seemed to taste better than at home!
  • Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars - A great way to get kids involved in the kitchen, is by preparing a recipe that will satisfy their sweet tooth. Many children love the opportunity to measure, mix, and bake, and don't even mind the clean up afterward. Try this tasty treat with your kids.
  • Cool Treats - Need a fun treat to make with the kids that involves absolutely NO cooking or baking? These yummies are perfect for the days ahead as warm weather approaches.
  • Decorative Vegetables - A picnic or holiday table adorned with decorative vegetables is pleasing to the eye as well as appetizing! Making fresh vegetables look like the pros do does not have to be difficult. Here are some ideas to get you started:
  • Granola on a Stick - These granola bars can be cut into bars or molded onto "sticks" like we have done. Either way they are the perfect snack for your family's camping or hiking trip. They're a great accompaniment for a bonfire and a ghost story!
  • Grilling Tips - Before you even begin, think safety first. Successful grilling comes from care and planning, not seeing how high you can make the flames go!
  • Hello Muddah Cookies - That familiar camp song, everyone can sing the first few bars. But let's face it, whether it is sports camp, leadership camp, band camp or wilderness, kids hate writing letters. And sadly, every parent wants to know what in the world is going on. We live in a world of instant news and how difficult it is to wait for a letter. Sometimes they never come, that means they're having a blast. I learned a little trick last summer when my son was at a version of summer camp, and we had no verbal communication for 4 weeks. I knew he was too busy to write a thoughtful letter and tell me what I was dying to know. So I basically wrote it for him.
  • Liven Up Your Iced Tea - Iced tea is a traditional refreshing drink during the warm months, and one of my favorites. However, there is so much more you can do with tea to liven up your days and nights! Remember, too that presentation makes all the difference, whether you are entertaining others or treating yourself during a busy day.
  • Meats for Grilling - Cooking on the grill is a favorite for summertime cooking. Try these recipes for summer barbecues, picnics, parties, holidays or just for dinner!
  • Sides & Salads - Great side dish ideas for your next party or barbecue. Perfect to pack up for camping trips or just for a picnic. Try these ideas today.
  • Summer Fruit Kabobs - For your next trip to the beach, pack these easy to make fruit kabobs into your cooler for something healthy to munch on. Who says that fast food can't be healthy or nutritious? Kids will love to make this easy fruit recipe!
  • Super Summer Snacks 'n Fun - If you are looking for some tasty, cool treats for you and your kids to enjoy this summer, or need some great boredom busters, here are ten great ideas to get you started.
  • Ultimate Lemon Bars - This recipe takes lemon bars, that lunchbox and bake sale favorite, to whole new levels. I served them at a New Year's Party dessert buffet, and everyone declared them a favorite (they even beat out cheesecake and chocolate tarts!).
  • Vegetable Dips - Try these delicious dips for your next party, barbecue or picnic. Perfect for dipping raw, cut up vegetables. Also a healthy snack for kids!
  • Watermelon Poke Cupcakes - Watermelon recipes remind us of the sweet tastes of summer. Whether it's for a picnic, birthday or just a family barbecue, these watermelon poke cupcakes are easy for kids to make and look fabulous on your cookout table!
  • Whoopie Pies - If you are looking for a fun snack to make for the kids for after school, or maybe a great lunch box treat, these Whoopie Pies are just the ticket!
