Blueberry syrup review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. I love trying new recipes and experimenting with different toppings. I was excited for the blueberry syrup review. This all-natural Blueberry Syrup is made from True Blue Farm's best blueberries. This syrup is delicious. I have used it on waffles, french toast and most importantly crepes. (Please click here for the crepe recipe and instructions.) I would definitely recommend this syrup to anyone.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

No-bake Lemon Pie

My cousin Jana and I love Lemon Meringue Pie. I'm always looking for other lemon desserts. My mother in law served this for a family dinner. I loved it and plan to make this lemon pie for Thanksgiving instead of Lemon Merinque pie.

Lemon Lush Pie

1 graham cracker crusts

8 oz cream cheese, room temp

1/2 c sugar

1 sm instant lemon pudding

1 3/4 cups milk

12 oz cool whip

Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Spread over bottom of crust and set aside. Whisk lemon pudding and milk until combined. Pour over cream cheese layer. Chill for at least 1 hour. Top with whipped topping. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Alternative option:

Prepare graham crust in 9x13 pan. Double the recipe.

Recipe - No bake energy bites

Rich and I are SLOWLY moving towards healthier eating. We love no-bake cookies. These are a healthier option.We don't like as much flax seed as what the recipe calls for. I add some extra oatmeal and coconut flakes to compensate.

1 cup dry oatmeal
1/3 cup coconut flakes
1/2 cup nut butter (combination of peanut butter, almond butter, nutella, etc.)
1/3 cup honey
1/2 cup ground flax seed
1 tsp vanilla

Combine all ingredients. I put it in the microwave for 25 seconds to make it easier to combine. Mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Shape into 1 1/2 inch balls.

Makes 24 balls.

Banana Cream Cake

My husband's family LOVES banana cream pie. When we all get together, there is never enough pie to go around. I decided to create a cake that would remind everyone of banana cream pie. This recipe was a huge success.

1 yellow cake mix
1 small instant banana pudding mix
1 large instant banana pudding mix
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
3 cups milk
1 large cool whip container
5-6 bananas

Prepare yellow cake mix as directed. Stir in small instant banana pudding mix. Pour into 11X15 pan and bake 20 minutes.

Beat cream cheese with 1 cup milk until well blended. Add large pkg instant banana pudding mix and 1 cup milk. Beat until smooth. Add remaining 1 cup of milk and beat well.

Spread pudding mixture over warm cake and refrigerate. Cut bananas into slices. Toss with dash of lemon juice.

Place banana slices over top to cover cake. Spread cool whip over top of cake. Refrigerate until serving.
