Ambrosia Salad

So last Saturday we had a Ladies’ Breakfast and I was trying to figure out what to make. I called my mom and asked if she had any good ideas (because she is an awesome ‘chef’, actually) and she did have an idea, and a very good one at that. Ambrosia salad. Ever heard of it? Well it’s pretty incredible, and perfect for any sort of breakfast or brunch get together! I gotta say, it was a hit!

Here’s what you need:

1 Large Apple
1 Large Pear
1 Cup Grapes (I used red seedless because it made it look  so pretty)
3 Naval Oranges
1 6oz Container of Low-Fat Peach Yogurt

Not pictured – the oranges. Woops.

Here is what you do:

1. Cut your apple and pear into cubes. Bite-sized is good.
2. Give some pieces to your toddler who is undoubtedly at your feet begging {if you happen to have a toddler}

3. Peel your oranges and separate them into sections.
4. Put all the fruit into a pretty bowl – I used a trifle bowl.
5. Mix in the peach yogurt.
6. Enjoy alone or with some good friends or family.

Doesn’t that look yummy?

Hey, Puddin'!

One of my favorite recipes that my mom makes is her good ol' corn puddin'. You may be thinking, "Corn-flavored puddin'? Yuck!" But I assure you, it is not yuck, nor is it "corn-flavored puddin'". It is delicious. When we were having our dinner party last week I had to call my mom up for her corn pudding recipe. I figured I would share with you!

What you need:

1 can whole kernel corn, with juice.
1 can cream-style corn.
1 box corn muffin mix {we use Jiffy because it's the bomb diggity. Yes, I just said that.}
2 eggs
1 8oz container of Sour Cream {you can use low-fat if you want!}

Here's what you do:

Preheat your oven to 350.
Beat yo eggs. Then mix everything together. I put mine in a 2qt glass dish. Dot the top with butter. Put it in the oven for 1hr.

And then you eat it.



It's so good. Let me know if you try it out!
