Jolene's Recipe Journal

  I've been looking for some different ways to have my waffles in the morning, and ran across this one in Cooking Light.     Very easy, and will be even more delicious when local berries are ready.   I made up the entire cream cheese mixture (minus the fruit) and stored the extra servings in the fridge in a small container and plan on changing up the fruit to whatever I have on hand, blueberries, bananas, apples, etc.  

I belong to a group on Facebook that shares what we are cooking for dinner.   Yesterday I posted that I took out thin sliced chicken breasts but had no idea what I wanted to do with them, and Chicken Cordon Bleu was suggested.    Perfect!  I had ham and cheese left over from my sister's baby shower, so I did a quick Pinterest search for a rolled-up version.  

We're all very excited that my sister is having a baby girl in June.   Her shower was this weekend, and there was soo much delicious food there.   Caprese Pasta Salad , Toll House Pie , Lemon Coconut Pixies & these Iced Oatmeal Cookies were my contribution.

I wanted to do a fun dessert for Cinco de Mayo, and went back and forth between making sopapillas and these Cinnamon Chocolate nachos.  I got a late start, so I used jarred hot fudge topping with a little vanilla stirred in instead of the from-scratch recipe.
