Sriracha Chex Mix Recipe

July 15, 2015 By Shannah Coe 4 Comments

I am a total sriracha addict. If the bottle wasn’t so large, I’d probably carry some in my purse wherever I went. They used to make a hot and spicy Chex Mix but I haven’t been able to find it for awhile now. So, I decided to make my own replacement for it and added a little bit of extra flavors too. You are totally going to love this sriracha chex mix recipe!

Snacks. They are totally my weakness. I am almost always on the go so snacks tend to become my meals and meals never actually happen. I always look for snacks that are easy to carry along with me and taste great. If they have a little crunch and sweetness to them, like this triple berry granola, then the snack is a total winner.

Pumpkin Hummus

September 24, 2014 By Shannah Coe Leave a Comment

So far, I’ve been light on the pumpkin recipes here this year. Of course, the internet is blowing up with just about anything and everything pumpkin. I love pumpkin and have definitely been cooking/baking it with recently. I recently made the most flavorful pumpkin hummus and decided it was the perfect recipe to kick off pumpkin season here at Just Us Four.

This pumpkin hummus is the best I have ever had. It is so delicious.

Snacking the Better Way

A few days ago, we talked about my love of snacking and I shared with you one my absolute favorite new snacks using pepper jack cheese wedges from The Laughing Cow®.  Snacking can be a tricky thing though. It is so easy to hit the vending machine or grab the nearest bag of whatever chip that you walk by. I try to be much more mindful of my snack choices now that I know how much my kids mimic what I do. Choosing my snack choices more wisely not only helps me but also influences their food choices too. We are big fans of The Laughing Cow® spreadable cheese wedges because they come in so many different flavors so we are likely to find one that we like and make our snack.

A Spicy Pepper Jack Snack

August 27, 2014 By Shannah Coe Leave a Comment

I love to snack! I could probably skip meals all together and just focus on snacking throughout the day if my family didn’t rely on me to provide them with meals. I especially love The Laughing Cow® spreadable cheese wedges as part of my snacks because they are the perfect size and come in all kinds of flavors. Right now, The Laughing Cow® is on a mission to #ReinventSnacking and I am so excited to be a part of the movement. I like to have  a little spice in my snacks so I created a spicy pepper jack snack the other day that may be my brand new favorite.

Create the perfect snack by pairing Laughing Cow wedges with your favorite ingredients.

Snack Time

June 7, 2014 By Shannah Coe Leave a Comment

Now that the weather is warm and the days are long, we spend a ton of time outdoors.  Sometimes we have a BBQ or other type of party planned but most of the time we are just hanging around watching the kids play.  After a little while, what we have for snack is usually where the conversation turns.  I am always looking for something that tastes great, is good for you and is also something the kids will eat.  On a recent, gorgeous morning, I decided that snack time would be the perfect time to introduce them to my new favorite snack bars.

Spicy Beer Battered Fried Pickles

April 30, 2014 By Shannah Coe 3 Comments

Back during our trip to Vegas, we ordered some fried pickles and I instantly fell in love.  Yes, I am aware that pickles are old news but I never claimed to be trendy.  Of course, once I got home, I wanted some fried pickles that didn’t require me to travel most of the way across the country to get them.  So, I tested out a few recipes at home and came up with the ultimate recipe for spicy beer battered pickles.  Yep…pickles…jalapenos…beer…all together in one awesome snack!

Fried Pickles with Jalapenos and Beer in the batter. Yummy! #recipes

Sleepover Planning: The Perfect Snack

April 4, 2014 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

Collective Bias Disclosure

Six years old are funny.  They start to get all kinds of personality and have very specific ways they want things done. A few friends are planning a sleepover for one night of our upcoming spring break from school and I am getting “schooled” on good ideas for snacks.  Of course there will be the typical snacks of popcorn, cookies and candy.  But, I want to make sure there are a few wholesome snacks too that incorporate fruits or vegetables.  So, I did a few taste tests with her and we created what she called “the perfect snack.”

Get Your Game On – Yogurt Granola Parfaits

March 13, 2014 By Shannah Coe 4 Comments

March is here and that means tons {yes, TONS!} of basketball is about to hit your TV.  Unlike football though, these games will be on at all times of the day, so you need to be prepared with lots of different food options to enjoy while watching the big games!  Now, most of the time, game-day food includes things like wings, burgers and bacon.  That is kind of heavy for a 10 a.m. game though.  Plus, a lot of women watch basketball and really get into the tournament, so some lighter food is always appreciated.  Don’t worry though…Keeping those early games in mind, I created some yummy yogurt parfaits that would be perfect!

Each year, around mid-October, our neighborhood explodes with Halloween.  Entire blocks transform from regular houses into spooky haunted houses or fun places covered in pumpkins and candy corn.  We like to get a jump on all of this fun by making a few Halloween recipes and then Boo’ing our neighbors.
