This Triple Berry Salad with Lemon Poppyseed dressing is such a summer delight to enjoy or anytime berries are in season. It is SO easy to make. Melissa’s Produce makes it easy to stock up on berries too so you can enjoy this salad all spring and summer long. I will be enjoying this for as long as I can since August was a total bust for me with some fun tooth issues, so now I am ready to have ALL.THE.THINGS. I missed out on last month.

Heart Cake Pops for Valentine’s Day

By Erin

Who else is ready for some more Valentine’s Day treats? My favorite has to be these Valentine’s Day heart cake pops. These Valentine’s Day pops may be simple, but I think they are still so pretty! Who needs flowers when you can have some cake pops? 😉 Although I’d still accept flowers if anyone brought me some. <3

2 cups of melted red chocolate wafters

¼ cup of white chocolate chips

Sprinkles

Instructions:

  1. Melt white chocolate chips 
  2. Pour a small amount into the molds and scoop the melted chocolate up the sides. When you are scooping, make sure that you get the chocolate up the sides in the middle of the mold as well. In order for the cake pops to look complete try to get a good thick layer on the sides.
