I usually post desserts and easy baking hacks, but I wanted to share with you this really great creamy tomato soup that we make in my family. And being that we are in the heart of fall now, this is the PERFECT time to share it!
Instead of tortellini, we use Ditali – which works out a lot better!
Unfortunately, I don’t have a photo, but the next time I make it I will take one!
Enjoy!
Here is the easiest way to make peanut butter bars that taste authentic and like you slaved in the kitchen.
One packet Of Betty Crocker peanut butter cookies mix
One cup of Wegmans organic peanut butter powder
Half a cup of Wegmans creamy peanut butter (Or any peanut butter of choice)
One stick of melted butter cooled
For the topping
Pillsbury milk, chocolate fudge icing. I bought half a jar at the dollar tree and that’s exactly how much I used.
Step 1 melt the butter and then let it cool
Step 2 mix the cookie mix, the peanut butter powder
Step 3 add the cooled melted butter
Step 4 Add the half a cup of creamy peanut butter and mix it completely
Step 5 Spray and aluminum pan with either butter spray or cooking spray.
And then place your dough in the pan.
Step 6 Let your dough chill in the fridge for at least two hours. I left it in for three.
Step 7 Once the dough is chill, take it out and cover the top with your icing.
Enjoy!
The peanut butter bars can stay fresh. If kept the refrigerator for two weeks. If you keep it out, it will be good and fresh for one week.

It’s almost back to school for EVERYONE! Some kids already started… Let’s make this the best school year and give them some really cool after school snacks that are FUN and HEALTHY (well, mostly)
Apple and raisin pinwheels
Cut an apple and core it
Then take the skin off the apple
Make sure you then take the apple and put it in a bowl of lemon juice so the apple won’t brown
Take your tortilla and cut the tortilla in half then
Now spread strawberry cream cheese on it
Then you can take your apple slices and place them on the tortilla
Then whether you wanna put raisins or dried cranberries put that on your tortilla.
Now you’re gonna roll the tortilla towards you to make a pinwheel sandwich
Oatmeal cookie banana and peanut butter sandwiches with chocolate granola
Take two soft oatmeal cookies, whether store-bought or homemade
Spread a peanut butter on one side place your chopped up banana onto the peanut butter
Put some granola in a plastic bag and then crumble it up into little tiny pieces
Now you will place those crumbled up granola pieces on the other side of your oatmeal sandwich with peanut butter .
Then you make a sandwich and place them together .
You can watch the video of me making it on my Tiktok –
Everyone loves a good s’more in the summertime. Here is the EASIEST way to do that and there’s no baking or prep you need to do for it.
Buy the fudge stripe cookies
Buy marshmallow fluff or creme
Buy graham cracker crumbs
Now I like to have the cookies cold to do this, so store them in the fridge the night before then take 2 cookies and open them open chocolate side up. Now spoon on a heaping spoonful of your marshmallows fluff or creme. Place the other cookie on the top gently and then roll the sides in the graham cracker crumbs,
Serve!
They are delish! Enjoy.
