Green Goddess Smoothie by Holly Waterfall

I love smoothies. I could drink one for every meal. I wish I could drink one to start each and every morning to start my day off. Unfortunately, though, I leave the house at 6:30 in the morning while everyone’s sleeping, and I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t appreciate the very noisy sound of the blender+ice to wake them from their slumber. So instead, I have a small smoothie as an after work and school snack with my son many afternoons. And then there’s Saturdays. My favorite day of the week. Satu

10 Minute Baked Cinnamon Sugar Donut Holes by Courtney O'Dell

Have you ever had those delicious donut hole treats at a stadium or event center? The warm, crunchy, delicious and sweet, cinnamon tossed pillows of perfection? Well if you haven’t… you either don’t go to games often, or you have the willpower of a God. Because those things are my downfall anytime I see (or smell!!!!) them.

Jo's Crab Pasta Salad by Heather Gines

Once in a while I will taste a dish that I will immediately say, "I have to have this recipe!" Well, this is one of those dishes. I first had this several years ago when my sister in law made it for a family party. I made sure I got the recipe from her and it has since become one of my favorite salads to serve at our barbecues. ! Thanks Jo! -Robin

Foolproof Crispy Skin Chicken Drumsticks by Courtney O'Dell

Is there anything better than a delicious herb coated crispy skin chicken drumstick on a night that you don’t really feel like putting a ton of effort into having a delicious meal? Not to me! I love serving chicken drumsticks because they are pretty inexpensive, freeze well, and SO easy to cook. Because they are a darker meat, they are very tolerant (you won’t dry them out), and they are just plain delicious! While this recipe takes about 45 minutes total, the hands on-time is under 10 minutes f

Guilt Free Hazelnut Spread by Courtney O'Dell

I love hazelnut spread. Nutella is one of my favorite indulgences. It’s creamy, salty, sweet and… heavenly. What I don’t love is how much it costs, and how it tends to stick to my waistline. Its delicious, but I’ve been trying to cut out sugar whenever I can for myself and for my son. I knew I could make my own hazelnut spread- but I had no idea how easy it is to make, without any sugar or dairy- and still taste just as good as the fancy stuff. I am always going to make it this way- it is fresh,
