Recipes that have come in handy lately


Yogurt pops.  Are you ready for a great recipe that your kids will love?  And they'll think they're getting a dessert when it's really just yogurt and even your baby loves them, who happens to be teething and so this cold stuff helps soothe the pain?  Are you ready?  Are you?

1.  Buy some yogurt. 
2.  Dump it into ice molds.
3.  Put in a stick of some sort.
4.  Freeze. 

Wallaa.  Good stuff.

 Okay and my next big reveal is called Easy Pizza Rolls.  Here we go.



1 loaf frozen bread dough (or just make your own dough)
4 oz cream cheese
one 6 ounce can tomato paste
2 t. dried oregano
1 t. garlic powder
1 t. onion powder
1 1/2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
1 c. chopped pepperoni

1.  Preheat oven to 375degrees.  Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
2.  Roll out dough into a rectangle and make it as thin as you can.  Spread with cream cheese and them tomato paste over the cream cheese.  Sprinkle evenly with spices.  Top with cheese and pepperoni.
3.  Roll up jelly-roll style, starting at the long end.  Cut log into 1 inch think rounds just like making cinnamon rolls.  Place on pan and bake for about 20 minutes. 

We ate a few for dinner one night and I froze the rest.  I have two bags of these in my freezer right now.  These are great to grab when you are in a hurry.  Lizzy also likes them in her school lunches, just cold. 

Enjoy.
