Pinterest Recipes

I've been trying some pinterest recipes lately!

Here are a few I've tried:

Chicken and Wild Rice Soup
This one was awesome and yummy.  If I made it again, I would use less butter.


White Queso Dip
I'm a huge fan of the white cheese dip we eat at our local mexican restaurant.  I wasn't sure how this recipe would turn out because it calls for atypical ingredients.  But we were pleased, it was great!  It's thick - more like a dip.

Bean and Rice Burritos
These were good - I used brown rice.

Clean Banana Bread

As the kids are getting back into the swing of school, homework, practices and bed, I am going to try harder to make time to blog.  I have a lot of pictures, foods, stories and rattling to do post about!

Food:

I'm still not what you call a clean eater (check out Misty's blog) if you want to know more about it!

But I did make some CLEAN banana bread the other day!

1/2 cup butter at room temp (I used FAGE)
1 cup sugar (I used organic raw)
1/2 teaspoon salt (sea salt)
2 eggs (farm fresh)
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 c. flour (I used organic whole wheat)
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
3 ripe mashed bananas


Mix the butter, sugar, salt, eggs and vanilla together in a bowl with a spoon or whisk.  Sift the flour, baking soda and baking powder together (i just sift it right into the bowl with the other stuff).  Mix with spoon.  Add mashed bananas.  Mix it all up together really well and pour into greased loaf pan (I used Pam).

Bake at 350 for 55 minutes.

Delish!
