Oreo Bark

Ok, so I am a fan of anything sweet, especially the white part of an Oreo cookie.  I scrape off the white filling and give the rest to Bill Lee.  So when I found this dessert, I just had to try it.  It is to die for and super easy to make.  However, I must caution you.  If you don't watch your chocolate chips in the microwave, you WILL burn them and smell up your house.  (Don't ask how I know this)


1 bag of Nestle white morsel chips
Oreo Cookies


In a microwave safe bowl, place half the bag of white morsel chips. 


Place in the microwave and heat for about 30-45 second intervals on a low power level (did mine at a three). 


After each interval stir your chips and place in the microwave again.  Do this until all your chips are melted down.  It took mine about 90 seconds to melt.


While chips are melting, place Oreos in a bag and smash to bits (I had fun with this part)!  Add as many as you would like.  I think I ended up using 5-6 cookies.


Take melted chips out of the microwave and mix in Oreo bits. 

Spread onto a parchment lined baking sheet.  I made mine relatively thin because it is a super sweet dessert and I don't want too much at once.


 Repeat process with the other half of the bag of chips.  Spreading the final product on the other half of the baking sheet.

Place in the fridge for ten minutes.


Take your bark out of the fridge and grab a knife.  I scored my bark on the top to size my pieces then broke it along those lines.  (At first, I tried just breaking it apart and ended up with tiny pieces and crumbs)

Your finished product will look similar to this.

Zucchini Boats

This has been a go to lunch item for me lately.  Quick and easy and DeLiCiOuS!


This recipe is for one person..two boats. 


1 Green Zucchini
3-4 Grape Tomatoes
Bread Crumbs
Water
Olive Oil
Garlic Salt/Powder
Salt
Pepper
Mozzarella Cheese


First: cut your zucchini in half lengthwise (I then cut off the ends...I don't like ends of foods for some odd reason). Then scoop out the seeds leaving a nice boat looking shape.


Second: place zucchini in an oven safe dish with enough water to cover the bottom of the dish.


Third: mix a little olive oil, garlic powder/salt (whichever you prefer), salt, and pepper in a small bowl.  Only make enough to drizzle over the top of your zucchini. 


Fourth: drizzle olive oil  mixture on the top of your zucchini.


Fifth: cut grape tomatoes in half. 


Sixth: top zucchini with halved grape tomatoes, and bread crumbs.


Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes.


Take out and drizzle with a little more olive oil, mozzarella, and stick in the oven on broil for about 5 minutes. 


Enjoy

Hey!

Hello Everyone!  I am going to give this whole blogging thing a try for a while and see how it goes.  I never seem to be able to stick to one thing for too long, so who knows.  Over the next few weeks I will be adding pictures, updates, and recipes.  Hope you enjoy everything as much as I have. Love and miss you all  :)


PS--I must give credit where credit is due.  Most of my recipes have come from Pinterest (which I am addicted to).  I will post a link directly to that persons page if the recipe came from them.  Trust me, I am not this creative with food to come up with these recipes on my own :)
