When I was a child, I use to always look forward to getting some Peeps from my Nana at Easter time. While I try to avoid them now because they are loaded with SUGAR, they are CUTE and they do taste good. What I didn’t know is Peeps are made for more than just Easter.

Below are different foods that I have found online using Peeps that I might want to copy to surprise my kids with!

Peeps Stuffed Rice Crispy Treats

Chocolate Dipped Peeps

Peep Sushi

Strawberry Cheesecake

Tuxedo Peeps

If you have been following my blog, you might already know that I LOVE to cook. I am always in the kitchen trying new recipes as well as making my own that my family enjoys.

While I do enjoy cooking, there are days when the canned meals and frozen meals come in handy, especially those busy days when you don’t have much time to come up with a home cooked meal.

My daughter Hannah LOVES the Chef Boyardee products. My other children like them as well, but they happen to be one of Hannah’s favorites.

When I go grocery shopping, I usually grab a few cans of the Chef Boyardee Beef Raviolis to keep on stock in the pantry. On the weekend when it is lunch time, I often will ask the kids what they want to eat. Miss Hannah will usually grab one of the cans of raviolis which means a lunch for Hannah in just a couple minutes.

Since my children enjoy eating these products and are products I grew up eating, I thought it would be fun to make my own recipe using the Chef Boyardee Beef Raviolis. One thing that my entire family likes is lasagna, therefore I created an easy lasagna made from the Chef Boyardee Beef Raviolis that also includes some other yummy ingredients.

Yesterday was my daughter Hailey’s birthday. We had some friends over for dinner and I shared with them my Easy Ravioli Lasagna Recipe that was a HIT. I will definitely be making this again! Check out my recipe below:

 
What I LOVE about this recipe is that the kids at their SPINACH and never said a word. I think this is the only way that I can get the whole family to eat spinach 🙂 .  There are lots of other recipe ideas using the Chef Boyardee products on their website too.

Last week I bought some Pillsbury Crescent Rolls to make a recipe with on This Mom Can Cook. After making a appetizer dish with the rolls, I visioned making a dessert with these rolls too! I have a cupboard of goodies and put together something sweet!

Here is my recipe with Pillsbury Crescent Rolls.

Lay down the Pillsbury Crescent Roll dough on a plate!

Add the goodies. I added marshmallows, white chocolate chips, peanut butter chips and Hersheys mini kisses!

Roll the Pillsbury Crescent Rolls up and pinch seams to seal!

Once baked, remove from oven and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
