Cinco de Mayo is only 2 days away, are you looking for a quick and easy recipe to add a little fun to your fiesta? How about a Cinco de Mayo inspired Jello Salad… no worries it is just the colors NOT the flavors that go with this special day. But I bet some jalapeno jello would be kind of fun…lol. Maybe I will have to try that next year.
Make 2 packages of jello per package instructions in two bowls (one red one green). Let jello set up and firm, then cut them into cubes. In a clear serving dish layer the green jello in the bottom in a single layer. Next spread half a container of Cool Whip to form a white layer. On top of the cool whip spread out the red jello cubes, and top with an even layer of cool whip.
Easy as that you have yourself a Cinco de Mayo Jello

I have posted my Butterscotch Sweet Roll Recipe before, I love them but they take 6 hours – overnight to make. So I created a QUICK and EASY version that tastes just as good and it is so much faster. Best part is they only take 5 ingredients to make!
Pecan Butterscotch Rolls Recipe ~ Quick and Easy with only 5 ingredients
You will need
- 1 Grands Flakey Biscuits 16 oz (cut the biscuits in half)
- 1 small box “cook & Serve” Butterscotch Pudding powder plus 1/4 cup water (Not Instant! ! !)
- 1 cube melted butter (1/2 cup)
- 1/2 c. brown sugar
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. First take your butter and grease the bottom of a 9X9 inch baking dish. Then sprinkle the nuts in an even layer over the bottom of the baking dish. Take the raw biscuits cut in half and put them in rows, evenly spread on the bottom of the pan on top of the nuts. I put them cut side up (s0 the rounded edge is facing down). Set aside and work on topping… in a medium sauce pan add butter, brown sugar, butterscotch pudding powder and water. Stir over medium heat till butter is melted and it starts to boil. As soon as it starts to boil take off heat and pour over the top of the biscuits in the pan.
Put in oven and bake for 17-24 minutes. If you use a convection oven they should be done in 17 minutes, a standard oven will take a bit longer. Take out of oven, at this point you can flip them onto a serving dish so they will be sticky side up. OR you can serve them right from the pan. Best when eaten warm.

Spring is here which means strawberries are at a stock up price. I showed you how to freeze strawberries earlier this week. But lets face it FRESH is the best way to eat them. My kids love chocolate covered strawberries (but lets face it those are a lot of work). So instead we make inside out chocolate covered strawberries. Chocolate in the middle instead of the outside, plus easier to eat for little fingers. You can also make these ahead of time for a party, and put them in the refrigerator.

Simply wash the strawberry, take the core out with a veggie peeler and fill with chocolate or nutella. Quick easy and a very tasty treat. To melt the chocolate I put a few chocolate chips in a freezer bag and melted them for 30 seconds in the microwave, squished them up then melted them again. Cut the tip off the edge of the bag and filled the berries. Or you can put Nutella in the bag for the same idea.
