Hello lovelies! It's time for my cooking and baking update! I've definitely been having fun in the kitchen! Here are a few of the things I've made along with all the treats I whipped up when I hosted BUNCO {which by the way is SO MUCH FUN!}
Umm... you'll also see I have an obsession with QUINOA! Can't get enough! :)

{Southwestern Black Bean Salad -- recipe here; I added quinoa}
{White Chocolate Raspberry Bars -- recipe from Hugs & Cookies xoxo}
{Quinoa with black beans, corn, and tortilla chip pieces! MY FAVE!}
{Tropical Parfait from Red Mango -- I didn't make it but it's my fave and needed to share ;)}

{Mickey cupcakes for the birthday girl!}
CREAMY HOT SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE DIP

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese (about 4 oz.)
1 clove garlic, finely chopped (optional)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350˚.
In a casserole dish, combine all ingredients. Bake uncovered 25 minutes or until heated through. Serve with your favorite dippers.
