Leprechaun Candy or Glitter Grapes Recipe
The boys’ and I have been making these for the last few years as part of our St. Patrick’s Day celebration. They are sour and sweet at the same time…a very delicious snack!
Sour Patch Grapes (aka. Glitter Grapes or Leprechaun Candy)
Ingredients
Bunch of Green Grapes
1 pkg Lime Jello (green ) or Melon Fusion (more white)
Directions
1. Wash your grapes thoroughly, do not completely dry them – as you want them to be a little wet so the gelatin powder sticks to them.
2. Place the gelatin powder on a plate and roll grapes into the powder, completely covering. Using two spoons is helpful here. Or you can simply place the powder in a zip lock back, drop a handful of grapes in at a time and shake until covered.
3. Refrigerate for several hours.

Delicious & Easy Apple Cider Recipe!
Making apple cider is definitely a treat during Thanksgiving and Christmas. Here is a simple 5 ingredient recipe that is very delicious!!!
Ingredients:
(2) bottles of 64oz apple juice
1/4 cup maple syrup
the peel from (1) whole orange
6 cinnamon sticks
2 Tbsp. pumpkin pie spice
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a pot over the stove. Heat and let the mixture come to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 1 1/2 hours. The longer the mixture simmers, the stronger the flavor of the cider.
You could also put these ingredients in the slow cooker and let them cook on low for 4-6 hours. It’s pretty hard to mess this recipe up. I hope your family enjoys this cider as much as my family does!
Inexpensive Fall Soup Recipe!
I love this time of year because I can make soup more often and it’s typically a very inexpensive meal to prepare. I bought a 10/lb bag of Organic Carrots at Costco for $4.99 about a week ago. It’s A LOT of carrots, so I decided to try a Cream of Carrot Soup recipe and I LOVE IT!!!
It’s simple, delicious, and pairs very well with a sandwich! Here’s the recipe:
Cream of Carrot Soup
(Yields 6-8 cup servings)
Ingredients:
2 Tbsp. of butter
2 1/2 cups sliced carrots
1 large potato, peeled and cubed
1 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
3 cups chicken broth
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 cup milk or cream
salt and pepper
Directions:
Heat butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat; add carrots, potato, onion, celery, chicken broth, and ginger. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes. Uncover and cool for 15 minutes.
Transfer soup in batches to a food processor; blend until smooth. Return soup to the Dutch oven; stir in cream. Add curry powder, salt, and black pepper; cook over low heat until heated through, about 10 minutes.

Simple 5 Ingredient Fall Side Dish!
by Aimee at October 22, 2013 in Food, Gluten Free, Recipes
I would consider myself a simple cook. I like easy meals that don’t require a lot of fuss, especially during the week. Here’s a really easy and very delicious side dish you can make to accompany pretty much any meat dish, and it’s perfect to make during the fall when sweet potatoes are in season and cheap! PLUS, this recipe is gluten-free!
Ingredients:
sweet potatoes – I like the smaller size ones at Trader Joes
maple syrup or honey
apple juice
cinnamon
salt
Directions:
Peel and thinly slice your sweet potatoes and lay them in a baking dish, it’s ok to overlap. Pour apple juice over the top. I fill the dish about 1/3 of the way up. Then sprinkle the cinnamon on top and mix into the juice and sweet potatoes (I use my hands and rub it all in). Then drizzle maple syrup over the top and sprinkle with salt. Stick a lid on top and pop into a 375 degree oven for about 30-45 minutes.
Depending on how much you make will depend on how long your sweet potatoes will need to cook. I did not put exact measurements because it really isn’t going to make too big of a difference. It’s going to taste amazing because sweet potatoes, cinnamon, apple juice, and maple syrup is a great combination!
Let me know if you give this recipe a try!
