We've been talking about the health benefits of olive oil and the reason why Rustic Olive's olive oil stands out above the rest with flavor and freshness.  But, it doesn't mean it has to be used for cooking only.  Have you ever thought about baking with it?

I have a spring form pan and have only made cheesecake in it.  Thanks to Taste of Home, I have another reason to dig the spring form pan out from the back of the cupboard.  I've never tried making a torte before but it looks fantastic and I'm excited to serve it on Thanksgiving as an alternative dessert to my homemade pumpkin pie.

Humidity is high and temps will be hovering around 90 again today, what can you make for dinner that won't require turning the stove or oven on adding heat to the home.  This delicious salad from Taste of Home should do the trick.  It's both cool and healthy!

Chocolate lovers unite!  I was scrolling through fb posts yesterday and came across this AMAZING recipe!  They were thinking when they decided to put chocolate, cool whip and cream cheese together with Oreos!!!  The only thing better than THIS, would be this without any calories.  But, trust me, totally worth it...ENJOY!

Of course, where there's fire, there's always the chance that something could go wrong. Which is exactly what happened at the Ozona Blue Grilling Co in Tampa, Florida on Saturday night.

With the Memorial week-end ahead, (and SO much to do), I thought I would share a SUPER easy dessert recipe that "looks" hard to make and reeks of summer goodie-goodness.  The Berry Bliss Cake!  You can even change out the blackberries for blueberries and it will be red, white and blue.....perfect!  Here's the recipe, but if you want a how-to video, just click on the delectable picture to

Kraft is ALWAYS very helpful making it LOOK like you're an expert in the kitchen, but Kraft also ALWAYS makes it easy too!  Like this bunny cake for your Easter dinner....really, it's just a couple of round cakes....if I can do it YOU can too!

Remember push-ups?  Wait, maybe I should be more specific....remember push-up ice cream?  I thought the packaging was cool, but didn't like the orange flavored ice cream....well, now I think I would dig these!  PUSHCAKES! Aside from some minor frosting sticking-to-the-top, I hear they are absolutely delicious!
