Healthy Peanut Butter Mousse
I whipped this up after school one day when I wanted peanut butter and a healthy snack. There are many other toppings that can be used with this such as Nutella®, extra peanut butter, granola, fruit, oats, graham crackers, cookies, or cereal. The possibilities are endless!
Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff
This crock pot beef stroganoff is an easy variation of a favorite. I used to prepare it the traditional way with sour cream but was out of it one night, so I used cream cheese instead. My husband and I liked it even better! Serve over hot cooked egg noodles or rice.
Black-Eyed Pea, Pork, and Mustard Green Gumbo
This is one of my favorite gumbos I make. The combination of ingredients may sound strange, but they go together so well and it is so delicious. Serve over warm white rice.
