These gifts are so cute! #HyVeePartner I made three easy jar mixes with all @Hy-Vee branded products as an affordable BUT creative gift idea! #HolidayWithHyVee Save this post to come back to when you need a gift! Hot Chocolate Mix 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1 cup powdered milk 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips 1/2 teaspoon sea salt 1/2 cup miniature marshmallows Friendship Soup Mix 1 cup dried split peas 1 cup dried lentils ½ cup pearl barley ⅓ cup beef granules ¼ cup dried minced onion 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning ¼ cup uncooked white rice 2 bay leaves ½ cup uncooked small pasta Instructions for making soup: 1 pound ground beef, browned and drained 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes 3 quarts water 2 cloves garlic, minced or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1(15 ounce) can tomato sauce Salt and pepper, to taste Carefully remove pasta from jar and set aside. In a large stock pot, pour the remaining soup mix as well as ground beef, diced tomatoes, water, garlic, and tomato sauce. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Cover with a lid and simmer for 50 to 60 minutes. Remove bay leaves from soup and add pasta. Cook for an additional 10 to 15 minutes or until beans are tender and pasta is cooked. Add salt and pepper to taste. Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix 1 cup All-Purpose Flour 1/2 tsp Baking Powder 1/2 tsp Baking Soda 1/4 tsp Salt 1/2 cup Brown Sugar 1/2 cup White Granulated Sugar 1 1/4 cup Quick 1-Minute Oats 3/4 cup Chocolate Chips To Make the Cookies 1 stick butter 1 tsp vanilla 1 large egg Preheat the oven to 350° F. In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to cream together the softened butter, vanilla extract, and egg. In a separate mixing bowl, pour the ingredients from the jar and stir them thoroughly. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients and mix until well incorporated. Use a cookie scoop to make 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized cookie balls on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are slightly browned

I’m obsessed!! #garlandhack #christmasdecor #cozychristmas #christmasgarland #showercurtainhack #viraltrends #diydecor

Influencers are the “studies” 🤫🤣 But for real, Christmas is so much work to decorate for! It’s so much nicer to decorate early to enjoy it longer 👌🏼 No one says you can’t have your pumpkins outside & tree inside 😂 #christmastiktok #cozylittlechristmas #cozyvibes #cottagecore #christmasdecor

Halloween snack ideas!! 🎃👻🍕 @Hy-Vee has the BEST take & bake pizza and I cut some ghosts out of mozzarella to make it Halloween ready! Don’t forget to grab a few festive treats from the bakery too. #HalloweenWithHyVee #HyVeePartner Here’s the recipe for the Jalapeño Popper Cheese Ball I made with @hyvee branded products! 16 ounces Cream Cheese - softened 4 Tablespoons Sour Cream 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder 2 Large Jalapeños* - seeds/stems removed, finely chopped 2 Cups Shredded Sharp Cheddar (reserve one cup for coating) 3 Strips Cooked Bacon - chopped Salt/Pepper - to taste** Stem from a bell pepper Using hand mixer, mix cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and fluffy. Add garlic powder, jalapeños, shredded cheese, bacon, salt and pepper. Mix until combined. Using your hands form a ball with the mixture and roll it in the remaining shredded cheddar. Lay two long strips of plastic wrap in an ‘X’ shape on a flat surface. Place ball in plastic. Bring up edges of plastic wrap, close at the top tightening to create the cream cheese ball shape. Using kitchen twine, make a a pumpkin shape by wrapping the ball like a gift twice. Transfer to refrigerator and chill at least 1 hour to firm. Remove from refrigerator and cut strings to unwrap. Top with bell pepper stem. #halloweenideas #halloweennight #halloweenrecipe #cozynightin #cozyhome #halloweentiktok

#ad Sorry, I’ll be making mini food until further notice 🎂🍦🥗 I’m obsessed with the new Make It Mini Food Diner & Cafe sets from MGA’s Miniverse @Miniverse #ad When you open a ball you get everything you need and instructions for how to make them. I used a UV light to cure them, but you can also leave it on a bright window sill! I like making them into fridge magnets by hot gluing a little magnet on the back! I NEED to make them all!! 🛒Shop them now at @officialminiverse #MiniverseCafe #MiniverseDiner #MiniverseFood #MakeItMini #Miniverse
