Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread

Cheaters Homemade garlic bread

Hello, Pretty ladies.

Today’s Sunday recipe is one of my Family’s all-time favorite garlic bread! I shared a little of their reaction below. I hope you try this recipe, and let me know in the comments. Have a great Sunday. 

 

Homemade Garlic bread!

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread! This is so dang good I have to make two loaves for this Family of 7!

Garlic Bread Recipe:

Loaf Rhodes Frozen Bread

One cube butter

One tablespoon of  minced garlic

 Tablespoon (1) Garlic Seasoning

1/2 Teaspoon Italian Seasoning

NOTE: This Bread is not for someone on a diet 

How to:

First, Place the frozen loaf on a cooking sheet lined with parchment paper, and cover it with a linen dishtowel.

(or cheesecloth) let rise. (follow directions on the bag) Bread rising usually takes ALL day. I’ll get this ready at about 9:00 am to make for dinner around 6:00 pm. When risen, bake at 350 until golden brown. (follow the directions on the packaging.)  While Bread is baking, melt a cube of butter in the microwave, then add garlic and seasoning and mix. 

When the Bread is out of the oven, brush on a heavy coating of the Butter mixture. Let excellent for about 10-15 minutes slice (Bread will still be warm and will sink, it’s ok), then coat each piece with more butter mixture. Serve hot and almost gooey. 

Family’s reaction:

This Bread is a family favorite, and when my family sees it on the counter in the morning, they jump for joy. They’ll eat two whole loaves; if I made three, that would get eaten too. It’s so rich, soaked in butter and garlic. It’s heavenly! I serve this Bread with soups, Pasta, and even salads. If you watch my stories, and I hope you do, you’ve seen me make it several times while staying at home was in place. ( heck, probably one of the reasons I’ve gained 10 pounds!) 

How did it get its name? Well…Cheaters because, well, you cheating and not making the loaf from scratch! Nobody’s got time for that! Insert Giggle! Hence, I named it My Cheater’s homemade garlic bread.

 

Thank you

How to Make Easy Creamy Garlic Mushroom Pasta

Hello pretty Ladies, 

 Today’s Sunday Dinner recipe for my series on Instagram, “In the Kitchen with D’Arcy.” It is A delicious and easy Creamy garlic mushroom pasta.  View the Video Here.  If your family is anything like mine, they love a good pasta dish, and this one is rich and delicious, with great flavor. It’s also very easy to make, yet it tastes like you’ve been slaving in the kitchen for hours. I like to serve it with a fresh green salad and garlic bread. Enjoy

 

How to Make Easy Creamy Garlic Mushroom Pasta🍝

Sauce Recipe:

1 cube butter

1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic

1/2 cup diced onions

2 baskets of Mushrooms (I like to mix two mushrooms of choice)

2 cups heavy cream

Romano cheese 

Parmesan cheese

Asiago cheese

2 teaspoons Italian seasoning 

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup of White wine (if you wish)

Freshly cooked bacon crumbles

Start by sautéing onions with garlic in butter over medium-high heat. Cook them until translucent, and then add the mushrooms. Season everything with salt, and black pepper, then cook until the mushroom has reduced in size and become golden brown. (Add 1/2 cup of wine if you wish)

Next, add cream and cook until the liquid is

Creamy After, add the cheeses, 1 at a time, and lower the heat to medium. Simmer the sauce for 3- 5 minutes or until the cheeses are melted.

✨Pasta cook as directed on the package

I used Fresh pasta from @duecucina in @shoptotemlake 

Cooking with a @hexclad pan from my Amazon shop.

A Year of Cabana Life Resort Wear

A Year of Cabana Life Resort Wear

Cabana life resort wear year recap

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Are you headed on Vacation? Sharing today A Year of Cabana Life Resort Wear. Resort wear with Cabana life SPF 50 clothing for the whole family, perfect if you’re headed somewhere warm🌴✨ In 2023, I know I have planned a couple of vacations. If you follow me, you know I love to travel and am always looking for an adventure.

I am sharing a year recap of Vacation resort wear🌴🌸 The piece I love traveled so well, looked great, and you could wear it from the pool to lunch or shopping! I was lucky to have traveled a ton in 2022 from Florida, California, Idaho, Montana, South Dakota, Wyoming, Nevada, Seattle, and several weekend getaways. Cabana Life clothing came with me on every trip.

Protection from the sun without having to apply harmful sunscreens is essential, as I have dealt with skin cancer. 

I love that most of the pieces can be transitioned to other seasons and dressed up or down! Check out my Travel recaps for more on every 2022 travel destination. Not only do I share how I styled each piece and what I loved about it for that trip, I give you some great travel tips and must-visit places to eat and see.

A Dutch Dish:

Chicken Schnitzel with Homemade mashed potatoes and baby peas! Served with or without gravy! One of  The Vandenberg’s favorite dinners and makes a perfect Sunday dinner! This Chicken is so good you won’t want to eat Chicken any other way😉

I know some of you are going to comment… Schnitzel is a German dish…yes, it is with pork! The Dutch created the twist with Chicken 😉 My hubby’s family has been making it for years, which is one of our family’s FAVORITES.

So, pull out some chicken breast and make this yummy Sunday dinner❤️

Chicken Schnitzel Recipe for Sunday Dinner
Chicken Schnitzel Recipe for Sunday Dinner

 

Recipe: 

-4 Chicken breast (pounded out thin)

-3 eggs (whipped) add salt pepper

-Bread crumbs (about two cups) 

We like Italian by Progresso  (a tip I add a tablespoon of garlic salt & onion powder)

-Butter- to fry Chicken in, about 1/2 cube per side…

Pound out chicken breast (thin). TIP: (cover in Saran Wrap) to avoid splattering ✔️ crack eggs and whip with a fork in a bowl. Add bread crumbs and seasoning to a separate bowl—dip chicken in egg, then bread crumbs. Heat the skillet, add 1/2 cube of butter, and let it melt. Add Chicken, flip when golden brown, and add the rest of the butter… done when both sides are golden brown.

Serve with Homemade mashed potatoes, baby peas, and gravy.

 

Let me know if you try this recipe in the comments. What would you love a gift guide of? I’d love for you to tell me in the comments. You can also find me on Instagram, Pinterest, Liketoknowit, Amazon shops, and Facebook.

8 Must Have Best Sellers

Hello pretty ladies, 

I hope you are having a great week. I went from A business trip in Washington creating content to a business trip in California for the Amazon creator summit this week. It’s been a whirlwind, and I can’t wait to share all the exciting content and things I’ve learned with you in the upcoming weeks. So today, I am sharing this season’s must-have gifts, also best-selling. 

 

This season 8 must-have Gifts🎁 You know those gifts that everyone wants? Those gifts you have to search out, wait in lines, and that sell out so fast because everyone wants them?🎄  These are on that list for teenagers and adults. 8 Must Have Best Sellers/ Top sellers 🖤

8 Must Have Best Sellers

8 Great gift ideas they really want:

Spanx faux leather leggings–

Faux Leather that flatters. This best-selling style features sleek, smoothing faux leather fabric that shapes and lifts and our contoured Power Waistband for core compression. I size up and love these with an oversized sweater and blazers with button-ups! Styling Inspiration HERE HERE
 

Lululemon Sherpa belt bag–

Why this is perfect=Phone, keys, wallet. Keep them close in this versatile belt bag that helps you get out the door and on to your next adventure. great on vacation or running errands. comes in black, brown, or ivory. Here is the Amazon Dupe for $27.00 HERE

 

 

Volcano candles–

Best known for their iconic Volcano scent (have you smelled an Anthro store?), Capri Blue is so much more than a candle crush. With 1,000+ 5-star reviews (and counting!), the Mississippi label’s intoxicating fragrances, striking vessels, and clean formulas – proudly designed and poured in the USA – create an evocative experience for the senses. 

 

Buttery soft blanket barefoot dreams and dupe…

Add cozy detail to your living room or bedroom décor with an irresistibly buttery soft blanket from sumptuous microfiber for around-the-clock cuddling. Barefoot Dreams is worth the price, but I have to say the dupe is on Major sale right now and so good! Grabe the Dupe HERE

 

Chanel Hand cream–

LA CREME MAIN TEXTURE RICHE absorbs quickly while restoring and protecting. Skin feels comforted and appears visibly nourished. Renewing and brightening iris pallida protects the skin barrier and helps diminish the appearance of dark spots. Hydrating and softening May rose wax leaves a moisturizing, protective veil on the skin for lasting benefits. Shea butter and glycerin moisturize skin and help maintain optimal hydration levels.

 

Silk hair scrunchie–

Mulberry silk scrunchies for hair keep all hair types healthier and more manageable by reducing the friction that leads to frizz, breakage, and hair loss. Celestial Silk scrunchies are more comfortable than normal hair ties and help prevent hair creases. Not just practical – silk is always luxurious at $17.99

 

Stanley 40oz cup–

Shop Stanley insulated drinkware & gear! Quencher H2.0 Travel Tumbler lets you sip 40oz of your favorite drink through a reusable straw.

—It’s no secret I love bread and butter with a pin —It’s no secret I love bread and butter with a pinch of French flaky salt-

Let me tell you, @bonruebakery
Does it right✔️

They Started with a baguette….🥖 and grew to a full French Bakery … serving beloved French pastry’s, breads and delicious sandwiches and salads.

Using the best French ingredients- Down to the delish French milk chocolate for their chocolate croissants 🥐 

Ben and I had the pleasure of attending a fun “French flea market” pre-opening event. To preview and sample the menu.

We made it a Date-night, with incorporating a beautiful scenic Fall🍂Drive to attend this fun event. Perfect evening🖤

Gorgeous drive, yummy food, great music and amazing local vendors- from local honey and jams, delicious olive oil & vinegars, beautiful flowers, and handmade cards. 

Thank you @bonruebakery for hosting us, for a little touch of Paris in the heart of Provo,Ut.

Stay tuned for @bonruebakery opening in more locations in Utah .

Meanwhile TODAY October, 10th is the grand opening of their Provo location 

Located across the street from BYU…

Do you have a small grandchild or baby? This is Do you have a small grandchild or baby?

This  is a fun and easy project
To capture their small foot print forever 🖤

Turning those tootsies into a spooky little treasure to cherish for Falls to come.

Make on for yourself and one for the parents😉

You’ll need:

-A fun nature print or vintage barn canvas… Something that looks like fall without being Halloween.

-I found a barn canvas at vintage market days and I found a fun print I could frame for my DIL.. Search vintage shops, goodwill and even the big box shops have affordable framed canvas, that could work

- Washable white paint , I used

-Med size foam brush 
-Paper plate

I put little man in the high chair with a snack and painted one foot at a time, lifted him out and pressed foot on canvas. 

Remeber to have artwork upside down, so the toes will be the bottom of the ghost on the Art. 

I then placed him in the chair again, did the other foot and repeated with the other foot. 
Pressing this foot a little higher than the other..

Making it look like two little ghost flying:)👻👻👻

-When dry 

- With a black sharpie pen put two dots on the heels of the foot print🖤

Enjoy….

Do you like little seasonal projects? Or projects you can do with your grandbaby?
