Quick and Easy Cheese Board and Home Grocery Delivery Special! Impress your family and guests by putting together a quick and easy cheese board for your next holiday party or family feast. This post is sponsored by Albertsons and Safeway but all opinions are my own. The holidays are here, ready or not! I love a holiday party and over the years I’ve learned a few tricks on how to make it easy and painless! One of my very favorite things to serve at a holiday party is a cheese board. It is always a crowd pleaser and the perfect guest whether it be a family gathering, an office party or a neighborhood potluck. People love to gather around the cheese board and try all the different cheeses, meats and other offerings. I love to keep all the ingredients for the cheese board on hand during the holidays because whether it is an unexpected guest or the arrival of out of town guests for the holidays, being able to put together a quick and easy cheese board in a matter of minutes is the perfect way to make them feel welcome. My kids love it when I have a cheese board waiting for them when they arrive home after a long flight. They are always hungry! Today I’m going to share with you how I quickly and easily put together my cheese board. Thanks to Albertsons and Safeway it comes together in literally minutes. One trip to your local Albertsons/Safeway store and you’ve got everything you need. If you don’t have time to actually go to the store many of the stores have grocery delivery service available!!

Use the code SEASONSEATINGS. Valid until 1/4/18. A good cheese board of course starts with cheese! I used a variety of cheeses from the O Organics® line and the Lucerne line. One of my favorites is the white cheddar cheese! The trick to a good cheese board is a good selection of cheeses! Be sure and check the deli section of the store for even more variety of cheeses. A little drizzle of something sweet over the cheese is an amazing combo. If you haven’t tried it, you must. Honey and jam are both good choices! A blackberry or raspberry jam is my favorite. In addition to a variety of crackers (I used the O Organics® Pita Crackers), I like to add in some nuts (almonds) and dried fruits (dates and apricots). I just add them in and around the other items on the board. I love the whole board to be covered with goodness. We also like some meat on our cheese board, especially my boys. You can fine a nice selection in the deli section of your local Safeway/Albertsons. Another favorite thing I add to my quick and easy cheese board is some hummus and baby peeled carrots, perfect for dipping! The final touch on the cheeseboard is some fresh fruit and herbs. I love to use dark purple grapes, a pomegranate and pear or apple slices. Just fit them in and around everything else that is already on the board. Fresh Rosemary or Sage make a lovely final touch to the cheese board.

Peanut Butter Pie This Peanut Butter Pie is light and fluffy and full of peanut butter goodness. Crushed peanut butter cups on top are the perfect topping!Originally posted Oct. 14, 2009 I originally made this peanut butter pie for a pie competition at church. I didn’t win but my dish came home empty so I call that a winner. This last week we had a Christmas dinner at church and I was asked to bring a dessert so I decided this pie worked for a church dinner before, it would work again! The pie dish came home empty once again! Original post: At church this weekend we had a party. Everyone was to bring a homemade pie or homemade soup. There was going to be judging and prizes awarded! I decided to take a pie. My competitive edge went into high gear and I began searching through pie recipes. I decided not to do pumpkin or apple because I figured that everyone would do either pumpkin or apple given the time of year. A few weeks ago on my Beach Babe escape weekend we had enjoyed an amazing piece of peanut butter pie and it had been on my mind ever since. In my recipe search I came across a recipe for peanut butter pie I have had in my files for years. It had been ten years or more since I made it but I remembered it being pretty good so I decided that it would be my pie contest entry. The original recipe called for a graham cracker crust but since I can’t eat peanut butter without chocolate I made my crust out of chocolate cookies. (you can use Oreos too) All I had in the cupboard was natural peanut butter so I added a little bit of salt – about 1/4 tsp. and a little bit of sugar (just to taste) to sweeten it up a bit. If you using regular peanut butter you will not need to do that. The filling is a combination of peanut butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar and whipped cream and makes a nice light and fluffy filling – yum! I added extra whip cream on top and some broken up Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups for an extra peanut butter punch and besides that it looked prettier. Now wouldn’t you pick this pie as a winner? Well, the judges didn’t -so sad! An apple pie was the winner! I think this recipe is a real winner though. So next time you get a craving for peanut butter and chocolate give this a try!

Easy Apple Pie This easy apple pie is delicious but the best part is there is no pastry crust and it’s easy! Today’s recipe is my favorite apple pie. If you follow me on Instagram you may have seen my IG story where I was preparing this yummy pie! Not only is it yummy but if you are not a pie maker and the thought of making a pie crust scares you – this is the recipe for you! No rolled pie crust – you don’t even need one of those store bought ones either. This version of apple pie is similiar to a French Apple pie with a yummy crumb topping. But not only do you use the crumb topping on top – you also use it for the bottom crust. Yum! Oh and did I mentioned this crumb topping is FULL of butter and sugar – yum, yum!! My friend Kim Shaw shared this recipe with me years ago and it is my favorite apple pie to make. It is especially great during the holidays when you’ve got lots of other goodies to make too. I use a potato peeler to peel my apples and then my favorite apple corer. I slice the apples to be about 1/4″ thick. I like to use granny smith or honey crisp apples for my apple pie. Of course this pie is perfect served ala mode!

Crumble remaining dough on top by breaking it into small pieces.

Candy Cookie Pie Have leftover Halloween candy? This Candy Cookie Pie is the perfect solution? This post contains affiliate links. Now that Halloween is over and done you may still have some candy hanging around. Since I don’t have any trick or treaters at my house anymore, I always hope for a little leftover candy after the trick or treaters have come. I also tend to over buy on the Halloween candy so I make sure I have leftovers! I also hate the idea of running out of candy and having to turn trick or treaters away! When my kids were at home I had one child who liked to go trick or treating but didn’t really like candy so there was always lots of leftover Halloween candy. How did I raise a child you doesn’t like candy!?!? Today’s recipe for Candy Cookie Pie is the perfect solution to that leftover candy! This pie is so good that you are going to want to make it even if you don’t have leftover candy, you’ll go out and buy some just to make it!! It is simple to make too. All you need is a store bought graham cracker crust, store bought sugar cookie dough and candy! You can use whatever combination of candy you like. I used my favorites, Twix, Peanut Butter M & M’s and Rolos. The pie goes together super easy too. You can have the kids do it! Gently press your cookie dough into the pie crust (it may crack the edges of the pie crust a bit) Then press your candy into the cookie dough.

Have leftover Halloween candy?  This Candy Cookie Pie is the perfect solution?

Now that Halloween is over and done you may still have some candy hanging around.  Since I don’t have any trick or treaters at my house anymore, I always hope for a little leftover candy after the trick or treaters have come.   I also tend to over buy on the Halloween candy so I make sure I have leftovers!  I also hate the idea of running out of candy and having to turn trick or treaters away!  When my kids were at home I had one child who liked to go trick or treating but didn’t really like candy so there was always lots of leftover Halloween candy.  How did I raise a child you doesn’t like candy!?!?

Today’s recipe for Candy Cookie Pie is the perfect solution to that leftover candy!  This pie is so good that you are going to want to make it even if you don’t have leftover candy, you’ll go out and buy some just to make it!!  It is simple to make too.  All you need is a store bought graham cracker crust,  store bought sugar cookie dough and candy!

You can use whatever combination of candy you like.  I used my favorites,  Twix,  Peanut Butter M & M’s and Rolos.  The pie goes together super easy too.  You can have the kids do it!

Gently press your cookie dough into the pie crust (it may crack the edges of the pie crust a bit)  Then press your candy into the cookie dough.

Bake at 350 degrees F or until the cookie is golden brown and the center is firm.

Then slice yourself off a nice big piece,  top it with some ice cream and chocolate sauce and you’ll be in heaven!

The only other thing you will need is a fork!
