mmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!

So to beat a dead horse to death, one of my resolutions was to cook a new meal every week.  Maybe I haven't posted 4 times a week on life and other little musings but I have cooked a new meal or sometimes multiple new meals a week.  Thank you, Pinterest!  My stack of recipe cards is growing like crazy!  I have been super lucky with only one being a dud.  I was a total loser and didn't document any of the food we've made ...NEXT WEEK I WILL! So you must look at the original photos that I did.

1.  Our first recipe was Alfredo Sauce using Greek Yogurt instead of using heavy cream and cream cheese. I always try to cook as healthy as possible and Trent is a sucker for Alfredo.  I do use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth but most everything is the same.  Sometimes I add fresh pressed garlic for a little different taste.  I also LOVE to half the recipe and then use the rest of the sauce for white pizza...did I mention Trent loves Alfredo?!

2.  Spicy Thai Noodles.  Super easy, Super delish.  On this one, I was lazy and didn't include the carrots, nuts or cilantro.  Regardless, even without that so darn good!  Next time I will cut the oil down a bit but still so very tasty! Oh and there is a really cute printable recipe card...was that lame to mention?  We paired this with the next lovely item on the list...

3.Baked Coconut Shrimp = Heaven on EARTH!  So very good!!!!  Pretty darn easy too.  I didn't change this recipe at all...well I didn't make the pineapple salsa...is that changing the recipe?  If so, sorry.  Trent hates pineapple and really pineapple and jalapeno does not seem appealing to me either.  Takes a little time to coat each one but so worth it!  If you have ever bought these frozen, there is a lot of ingredients.  These little homemade suckers only have 4!!!

4.  Rolo Cookies well I really should change that to Dove Cookies.  I think Dove's with caramel is WAY better than Rolos...and at the time I first made these I couldn't find Rolos at  Target.  Lucky me.  So anyways, these cookies are gooey and tasty and soo very chocolately.  I, of course, cut the oil from 1/3 cup to a 1/4 cup.  The easiest recipe ever. PLEASE MAKE THESE!!!  DELISH!

Alright kids, that is what we are up to!  I will share more recipes soon, I am sure 4 is plenty for one post:)
