Dark Chocolate Frozen Yogurt Bites

We keep a pretty hectic schedule around here which means I don’t get a ton of time to myself. It also means that treats and sweets are typically shared at least 3 ways. I love my kids and family but sometimes a little “me” time is definitely in order. I am also trying to really watch what I eat and limit high sugar sweets though. The frozen yogurt bites we typically make are a HUGE hit with the kids so I decided to try making some dark chocolate frozen yogurt bites which are perfect for me!

Double Chocolate SNICKERS Brownies

January 12, 2015 By Shannah Coe 15 Comments

Every year, after we’ve recovered from the holidays, Mathlete and I start talking about what our next social event is going to be. Sure, my birthday is in early February but we usually like to have a low-key get together at our house before then. The logical choice is a party to watch the Big Game since a) we love football and b) it is the first major social event of the year. He  is in charge of TV stuff and I am in charge of food. Because everyone is so interested in the plays being made on the field, it can be hard for the food to get much attention. So, I wanted to wow everyone with some delicious food and started off with double chocolate SNICKERS® brownies.

The cheers for these brownies might be louder than the cheers for the big game this year! Double chocolate snickers brownies are sure to be a winner!

A Busy Mom’s Lunch: Slow Kettle Soup

December 29, 2014 By Shannah Coe 2 Comments

Lunch is one of those meals that I rarely get to eat. Either I am too busy at work or I am chasing after my two littles and suddenly lunchtime is long past. I’ve been trying to get better about making sure I take time to eat lunch so I am less likely to snack late in the day and mess up my dinner though. I work in an office that is pretty far from any lunch options so I always take my lunch when I am in the office and I’ve started setting a timer for the days that I work from home. Recently, I discovered Campbell’s Slow Kettle soups and they have been the perfect lunch option for me!

Chipotle Chocolate Truffles

December 15, 2014 By Shannah Coe 3 Comments

Combine chocolate with the smoky flavor of chipotle peppers for some delicious Chipotle Chocolate Truffles. They are the perfect no bake holiday party food!

If you follow me on Facebook, you’ve seen my saga of the broken oven. Just when we thought it was a glitch, the oven completely died. Of course, that happened 3 days from our annual holiday party which was totally stressful. I immediately had to rethink all of my holiday party recipes to limit how much of it needed oven time. That meant no cookies, puff pastries or anything like that. Instead, I decided to make the star of the dessert table Chipotle Chocolate Truffles. 

A simple no bake dessert that is full of rich chocolate flavor and the perfect hint of spice!

Caramel Apple Pie Shooters

November 24, 2014 By Shannah Coe 13 Comments

SoFab Disclosure

Have you ever been relaxing on your couch or in bed and get a call that “surprise” you are going to have a visitor for dinner? Or maybe your in-laws decide to drop in for a little visit? This time of year those unexpected visits come a lot more frequently than they do any other. While I always love a chance to visit with friends and family, it can be a little stressful to throw something together on short notice when my to do list is already full of other “get ready for the holidays” tasks. So, I turn to a few go to ingredients that I keep on hand at all times to be able to make something quick but delicious, like caramel apple pie shooters, for everyone to enjoy…even on short notice. They are #ThankfullySweet and perfect for those unexpected visitors or even if you have plenty of time to plan but want to take a few shortcuts. #CollectiveBias

Beef Tips with Béarnaise Sauce

November 10, 2014 By Shannah Coe 5 Comments

 There are times when Mathlete and I plan to go out to a nice dinner alone and never end up making it because of schedules or babysitter problems or life in general getting in the way. It is those times that I like to have a few “fancy” dishes that look like they came from a fine restaurant but are really easy to to make at home. I recently make beef tips with béarnaise sauce, made with white wine vinegar, and roasted asparagus for just one of those nights.

My kids are total grazers. They want to eat a million snacks and then skip any actual meals. Once school starts, this gets even worse so I like to have heartier snacks than just chips and similar items ready for them. Of course, we want to make snacks fun too so I created two easy back to school snack ideas that are sure to be a hit with kids and make parents feel better about what is going in those little stomachs!

Almond Coconut Milkshake

June 23, 2014 By Shannah Coe 11 Comments

Collective Bias Disclosure

Summer is here and that means we are all turning to cooler foods and drinks to help beat the heat. One of my favorite desserts in the summer is a milkshake. Milkshakes are so delicious and can be made in so many different ways. We were all talking about our favorite candy bars the other day and I decided to try and make a milkshake to mimic one of Mathlete’s favorite. Creating this almond coconut milkshake was fun and was so easy thanks to Silk Almond Coconut blend that I used to get a really delicious coconut flavor. {Hint: search #collectivebias and #SilkAlmondBlends for even more almond milk recipes}

Jalapeno Ranch Colby Burger

May 26, 2014 By Shannah Coe 9 Comments

The weather has warmed up and that means lots of grilling.  One of our favorite things to enjoy on the grill are hamburgers.  Of course, I get bored easily so our burgers don’t typically just consist of ketchup and mustard.  For Memorial Day, we cooked burgers on the grill and I made a jalapeno ranch Colby burger. 

Perfect for the BBQ, this Jalapeno Ranch Colby Burger is an awesome combination of creamy and spicy. #SayCheeseburger #shop

Thai Green Curry Chicken Burritos

April 17, 2014 By Shannah Coe 9 Comments

Collective Bias Disclosure

Let’s talk about all the things I can throw into a tortilla, shall we?  This week is Thai green curry chicken.  Yep, you read that right: Thai…Burritos. This whole crazy burrito thing start when I stopped in at Giant the other day to pick up rolls only they carry.  I was struggling with how to spice up our chicken for dinner and saw Campbell’s skillet sauces. I love anything that makes dinner easier but actually adds good flavors to the meal so I grabbed the Thai green curry version and hit the checkout line.  Of course, I rarely do anything just as the package says and so their suggestion to serve the meal over a rice totally went out the window in my kitchen.
