Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
So, it is Monday. Are you struggling like I am? We had a gorgeous weekend here in VA and were fortunate to spend most of it outdoors. Weekends like that make going back to the grind of the office even harder. Maybe this peanut butter nutella donut sandwich will ease the pain…

I am so excited to share with you my newest donut flavor as a way to highlight delicious TruMoo’s Limited Edition Chocolate Marshmallow Milk. As always, even though this post may be sponsored, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
I love donuts. There, I totally admitted it. No matter how much I love eating clean and enjoying all the real foods of Whole30, I still have a soft spot for a delicious donut. Of course, I am always trying to think of new donuts to try {as if Red Velvet, Eggnog and Peppermint Mocha weren’t enough}. This time, I am taking aim at one of my favorite childhood desserts and making s’mores donuts.

Thank you to TruMoo for partnering with me on this recipe. As always, all opinions expressed here are my own. This post is an announcement about the new seasonalChocolate Marshmallow Milk that’s in stores this month only! We can’t wait to try it! For this post TruMoo’s Chocolate Milk was used and is available year-round
We got through a lot of milk here in the Just Us Four house. Like 3+ gallons of milk each week. Chocolate milk is a hot commodity too because we all love it. I was in the store the other day and saw that TruMoo now makes Chocolate Marshmallow milk and it totally got me in the mood for milk and cookies. Even though we are in the middle of the polar vortex, my daughter is still begging for ice cream, milkshakes and other frozen treats so I decided to combine those items and make her a s’mores chocolate smoothie as a treat using the TruMoo Chocolate Marshmallow milk. Sadly, our store was sold out of the Chocolate Marshmallow flavor but we used the regular chocolate this time around. I know this recipe will be even more amazing with the Chocolate Marshmallow version!

Ok, the calendar officially says September which means we are heading into fall very soon! Hard to believe, right? We’re still experiencing 80+ degree days but I know those crisp fall days are coming. S’mores are one of those snacks that represent this transition from summer to fall so well. Typically they are roasted over an open flame which happen often when you haul out the fire pit {firewood} to cope with the cooler evenings that mark the end of summer. Sadly, I don’t have a place {yet} for a fire pit so I am stuck taking pity from neighbors finding other ways to get my s’mores in. After playing around with s’mores pizza, I decided to give s’mores in a jar a try.
