Caramel Apple Nachos






My sister shared a recipe for these Caramel Apple Nachos with me one weekend before visiting, and I think that we made them four times in the two days she was here.  It was amazing, and semi-healthy, as far as desserts go!

Caramel Apple Nachos
apples, any variety - Granny Smith would work well (I used Gala)
caramel sauce
white chocolate chips, melted
heath bar bits
pretzels

Slice your apples, then drizzle with melted white chocolate and caramel sauce.  Splash with toffee and pretzels and serve!  Then, try to resist the urge to lick the plate.  I was not successful at resisting that urge!  :-)

Cilantro Lime Rice (Chipotle Copycat)



Jason is slightly obsessed with this rice lately, and so I need to write the recipe down so others can use it too.  It is super easy and does add SO much flavor to white (or brown) rice, and goes well with all kinds of meals.  Yum!  

Cilantro Lime Rice
rice, cooked
olive oil
salt
garlic powder
chopped fresh cilantro

Make your rice in the rice cooker.  When it is done cooking, put it in a mixing bowl, give it a tiny splash of olive oil, sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, lime juice and then add chopped cilantro.  Viola!
