Welcome to my little hobby!! I love to eat and I am passionate about making sure that the foods I eat and the foods I feed my cute little family are healthy. I have so many wonderful recipes that I have found through the computer or some of my favorite cook books, so I thought it would be fun to share them with my wonderful friends and family. I am going to be posting a new recipe every day, some will be gluten free, sugar free, or just healthy:) I believe that it can be fun to eat healthy and can taste great as well. Now every weekend I will be throwing in some of my favorite treats and goodies recipes because I believe that everyone should be able to have a cheat day, and lets face it, life without some of our favorite treats is just not that fun. So enjoy these recipes, and hopefully they will make eating healthy fun again, and PLEASE enjoy your weekend goodies too:) Also please leave me comments on what you thought about the recipe after making it, and if there are other things you would like me to post about. I can also try to redo any recipes that may be your favorites and make them a healthier version. Enjoy

Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings!!!!



Mountain Dew in apple dumplings? You think I'm crazy I know, but let me just tell you, you are crazy if you do not try these:) I am in looooove with this buttery goodness!!! I dare you to try and eat just one, I know I can't!!! I love weekend goodies:)


Ingredients



  1. 2 medium granny smith apples

  2. 2 cans crescent rolls

  3. 2 sticks of butter

  4. 1 1/2 cups of sugar

  5. 1 tsp. vanilla

  6. cinnamon for sprinkling

  7. 12 oz of mountain dew

Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 9x13 and set aside. Peel and core your apples and slice into 8ths.. Open the cans of crescent rolls and carefully separate the dough along the perforations. Place a couple slices of the apples in the crescent rolls and roll up. Place in prepared pan and repeat. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and add sugar and vanilla. Stir to combine. Pour mixture over the apple dumplings, then pour the mountain dew on top of everything. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake for 40 min. When dumplings are done make sure that you serve them warm, and don't cheap out on the sauce, pour lots of that bad boy on top of your dumpling. And if you feel a little crazy, pair it with vanilla ice cream!!! Enjoy
