Mint Lemondade

Mint Lemonade (stolen from Kelly)

Recipe for Mint Lemonade:

• 4 cups water
• 2 1/2 cups fresh squeezed lemon juice (8-10 lemons)
• 1/4 cup finely diced mint
• 1 cup sugar

First, prepare your mint. You can de-vein the mint leaf, so it doesn’t taste too earthy, then dices it up super fine.

Then squeeze your fresh lemons. I highly suggest an automatic lemon squeezer, making the process of squeezing 10 lemons a snap.

Then add your water and sugar and blend.

Now start sipping! The blend of lemon and mint is delicious. I also love the green flecks of mint that come out. You can strain the mint if you don’t want it to show up, but I think it makes the drink all the more fancy. This is one of my new favorite drinks. I love all things sour and this lemony drink fits right in.

Going Private

OK, fair warning...
I am putting my blog to private. I am doing this, because I want to put some recipes on here that I am vamping up on my own & I don't want to go into The Elephant Bar or some other restaurant to find my recipes on the menu.
So, if you want to still get my recipes, go ahead & request to be on my list. But you have to promise not to use my recipes as your own, nor sell them!
Thank you all for your support, it is amazing to me that i have so many people read my food blog!

It's Dip!

Mmmmm, I LOVE dips!!!!! Their fun, versatile and yummy!
Last week I went to LIFT, a Women's Retreat with some friends from church. Monica brought some bagel chips & a cream/feta cheese & cucumber dip from Sam's Club.
So Monday, I went out & went to Costco, on a hunt for the dip...NO LUCK =(
So, I bought my own ingredients & made my own!

Ingredients:
1 block Neutsafella Cream Cheese, you know, the lowfat one
1 cup Feta Cheese
2 cloves garlic pressed
2 TBS olive oil

Blend it all together & enjoy with Pita Chips!
It is THE BOMB!!!!! My new dip,,,Yeay!
