Pie filling! This time it was three free cans of their premium Pie Filling along with some cuter-than-heck recipe cards and a really adorable kitchen timer.
I seriously can't get over how simple these recipes were to make! Ya know what though? Their recipes are always easy to make! That's why I love them. Love. Love. Love.
Here are some of my favorites...
This ridiculously delicious
Another absolute favorite was the Amaretto Peach Cobbler in the Awesome
that included the Sweet and Hot Slow Cooker Pork and Chocotinis! It was a very fun menu and really easy to make ahead of time for the party!
Perhaps my favorite post ever from Lucky Leaf has been the
These New Recipes for spring are so light and luscious, we might be having them all summer long! The first recipe I made was the Lemony Blueberry Layered Pie. Ladies...if you want your husband to fall over with happiness...go ahead. Use this recipe. When I pulled this creation out of the fridge the words that escaped his mouth were, "You blessed woman!" So ya know...he then sat down with the entire pan and ate it with a spoon. I guess he thought it was just for him. I did manage to get a small little nibble...and it was ridiculously divine! The second batch I made, I changed the recipe a bit for my family's preferences. I've made the adjustments below.
Lemony Blueberry Cheesecake
with Pistachio-Graham Crust
Adapted from Lemony Blueberry Layered Pie from Lucky Leaf
Ingredients
1 10-inch graham cracker crust in a springform pan (see recipe below for my homemade with pistachio)3 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened to room temperature
8-ounces sour cream
¼ cup powdered sugar
2 3.4-ounce box instant lemon pudding mix
2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest
¼ cup lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 21-ounce can LUCKY LEAF® Premium Blueberry Pie Filling
Instructions
Make your crust by combining:
2 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup fine ground pistachios, 1/2 cup melted butter and 1-2 T of water. Press into a 10 inch springform pan.
It helps to lightly mist your fingers with a little water so they don't stick.
Bake at 350 degrees for 101-12 minutes.
Allow to cool while making the filling...
Filling directions: Combine cream cheese, sour cream and powdered sugar in a large bowl. Using an electric mixer, mix at medium speed for 1-2 minutes, until smooth. Add pudding mix, lemon zest and lemon juice; mix until well blended.
I have boys. I will not tell you how much they laugh whenever they see this picture of me squeezing the lemon. If you don't understand...I'm not going to explain it to you either.
Spoon lemon-filling mixture on top and spread evenly. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour.
Spoon Lucky Leaf Premium Blueberry Pie Filling on top just before serving. Garnish with fresh lemon zest if desired.
The second recipe I did was the Cherry Coconut Squares. Um Wow! There are only 6 ingredients in these bars and so far, my boys have asked me to make them four times in the last four days. I have a teenage boy and one nipping at his heals. Tell me that they'll stop eating soon. It is starting to get scary. Speaking of scary. These coconut squares are the most delightful coconut shortbread imaginable topped with the super-fruit cherry filling from Lucky Leaf. I'm telling you...you can't lose!
That being said, these whip up in minutes, are delicious to make, and have made their way to the top of the list of "Best Things to Trade" at the lunch table.
My son says he can get premium trade-items from other kids whenever he brings them in his lunch box...and he still won't trade them with his friends!
There. That is the ultimate test right there! Punk my lunchbox. That's right. I'm super-bad!
