My favorite uncrustable flavor is the PB and honey and I wish they sold it in the Costco-sized box. I saw someone say he’s tried every flavor and he still considers grape the best. Anyone that likes grape the best cannot be trusted. Grape jam is the worst! Would you agree? #midnight

My all-time favorite creamer is the silk oat creamer- maple brown sugar flavor. You can only get it during the fall, so I usually have to settle for the oatmeal cookie. The oatmeal cookie flavor is also delicious, but the maple brown HITS! Would you try the Dubai Chocolate flavor? #midnig

For the Full recipe, scroll all the way to the final slide for my handwritten recipe. I wish I could take all of the credit, but this is a recipe that Sarah from Broma bakery shared about a year or so ago, and I have probably made it at least once a month since that post. #midnightmunchie

My daughter was so embarrassed by my costume, but this is the first time I was actually so excited to dress up for Halloween because this meme had me laughing for days. #lemon8hasthefit #halloweencostume #lemon8challenge #emergingcreator #meme @Lemon8 Fashion

Five below had gingerbread bites and peppermint bites for four dollars each. I typically don’t like gingerbread, but I absolutely love peppermint and the peppermint ones were so good! They remind me of the peppermint, bark pretzels, but just missing a bit of saltiness. 10/10 #cookwithlemon8

First, you are going to start with Trader Joe’s spinach and artichoke dip. Warm it up as usual and then add one can of drained chicken. Then add 28 g of Parmesan cheese until the cheese is melted. Scoop with high protein tortilla chips. 59g protein, 590 cals #cookwithlemon8 #lemon8chal

Find my recipe in the third and final slide of this post. In place of using chocolate chips, I just used 200 total grams of the following: dried cranberries, toffee and chopped pecans. These are chewy, sweet and a little bit salty with the Maldon flaky salt. #tastecheckedonlemon8 #midnig

Brown butter chocolate chip cookies- recipe on the last slide. It finally rained and cooled down here, so naturally we decided to bake some brown butter, chocolate chip cookies, using Kerry Gold butter. What is on your to-do list today? #midnightmunchies #tastecheckedonlemon8 #lemon

I have been making a simmer pot every day, but still had more oranges than I was able to use. One way to use up those oranges is to slice them very thinly, place them in the oven at about 200° for about 6 to 10 hours or until they are completely dried. I learned that you have to cut them very th

Yesterday I showed you my dark chocolate roux that I used for my homemade gumbo, but here is the final product. This is after sitting in the refrigerator for two days, and it is even better than the night it was made. The flavors are bursting, the meat is tender and now I will be making roux in

I am ditching the rushed, overstimulated Mom trope, and I am focusing on prioritizing, healthy, nutritious, well balanced meals that are easy to make, and that meet my health goals. For lunch, I am having persimmons; dates with brie cheese, topped with flaky salt, and pumpkin seeds; artichoke bo

I tried making gumbo a few years ago, but missed some really huge components. I did not get my roux dark enough and forgot to brown my sausage. This time I got my extra chocolatey dark and I browned off my sausage, but next time I think I might exclude the sausage altogether. Any tips on get

If you are on Instagram, you should follow Tofu Mom! She has inspired me to focus on nourishing my body while also taking the time to myself. On today’s lunch plate, we have Korean pears dipped in fermented Korean chili paste. Dates filled with ricotta and brie cheese with flaky salt and p

I am Red Bull’s biggest fan, but they’ve been slacking lately and Alani has blown them out of the water with their coconut lime. But I think Red Bull might be back in it with this new flavor- berry and pistachio! During the first sip, I tasted mostly berry and then really taste the pistachio t

I went to the pumpkin patch and got these fresh apple cider donuts. If you cannot eat them fresh, add to the air fryer for 2 min at 350°F. They taste fresh!! #tastecheckedonlemon8 #fatkidatheart #lemon8challenge #cookwithlemon8 #crocktober @Lemon8 Food

I found some new things at Target, which is giving me some fun ideas! Love brie en croute- it’s like Brie in a croissant, good sweet and savory. #tastecheckedonlemon8 #lemon8challenge #fatkidatheart #cookwithlemon8 #crocktober @Lemon8 Food

I’ll be making gumbo for the second time- the first time I forgot to brown the sausage and threw out the entire pot. Any suggestions or tips to make sure it’s a success would be appreciated! Big or small- send me your advice!! #lemon8challenge #tastecheckedonlemon8 #fatkidatheart
