A great party appetizer. Looks fancy but is so simple. Can you even handle the cuteness of these baby eggplants?
My favorite banana muffins, this time topped with cream cheese kisses. Mwah!
A quick and simple condiment that tastes wonderful served with any grilled meat, but it doubles as a marinade, too!
A lovely, tasty and easy dessert sure to impress your guests. There’s nothing better than pears and almonds. Yum!

Making your own yogurt is so ridiculously simple and tastes absolutely divine. You may never go back to store-bought again.

My version of my favorite sandwich from Panera Bread: their Mediterranean Veggie.

A fun cross between broccoli and cauliflower sassed up with some Indian flavor.

A hearty, and somewhat healthy take on using mixed beans. With added veggies and chorizo, this one is sure to warm the belly.

Break free from the green topless mermaid and save yourself some money at the same time. Make your own frappuccinos and mocha frappuccinos at home. Making these at home allows you the flexibility of controlling the amount of sugar, type of milk(s), and flavoring (therefore calories) to cater to whatever it is you’re craving.
Blend all the ingredients except the whipped cream and chocolate syrup in a blender for 30-45 seconds. Pour into a tall glass and top off with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate syrup. Best served with a straw. Enjoy!
Note: if you don’t have an espresso machine, use 3/4 cup of double strength (strong) coffee mixed with 1/2 cup of milk and increased crushed iced amount by 1/4 cup.
MOCHA FRAPPUCCINO VARIATION:
Prepare everything the same way as a regular frappuccino (recipe above) except reduce sugar to 2 tablespoons and add 2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup. Enjoy!
Other variations:
Use Splenda, flavored coffee syrups, or flavored coffee creamers for a portion of the milk. For a richer beverage, use half-and-half, or heavy cream for a portion of the milk.

This is just about the only way I’ll eat (or drink) white chocolate.

This looks delish – I might be making this tomorrow! Do you make the coffee ahead of time so it’s completely cooled before you blend with the ice, or do you allow the ice to cool it off? I’m a newbie to iced beverages like this so sorry if it’s a silly question!

Megandemo: If you are using coffee.. I would allow the coffee to cool slightly and combine it with the milk in a cup before dumping it into the blender with the ice. The key to making this drink taste like Starbucks is the ratio of ice to liquid when blending. You don’t want the ice to melt too quickly. Hope this helps!

I’m a Starbucks addict. My usual is a tall mocha frapp, double blended with no whip. It’s Christmas. I need more money. So I will be trying this out, hehe. I’m so excited, thanks for the share!

Didn’t taste like a Starbucks frappuccino but the taste wasn’t bad at all.

Just made this and was very impressed. Since my nearest Starbucks is 1.5 hrs drive away I’ll be relying on this over the the summer. Thanks!
