Marshmallow Fluff Fruit Dip

The first time I ever had this dip was over a decade ago at my friend, Kelli's grandmother's house during the holidays. I was instantly hooked and I ate more than I should of... which resulted in a tummy ache. I remember her grandma telling me that it was just cream cheese and marshmallow fluff. Say what now?! I remember trying to making it home, but it just didn't taste as good as she made it. Isn't that just how it is?

Over the weekend, my friend hosted a game night and we were asked to bring some kind of a snack food. I've made cookies in the last couple events, but I wanted to make something different. Something simple. With me moving around furniture and turning the house upside down awaiting for my husband to come home (SOON!!!), something quick and easy is right up my alley. The dip was a huge hit and would make a great snack at home or to bring to a party!

Fruit Salad with Vanilla Pudding

Happy Easter! The sun is shining and it's absolutely gorgeous out. Spring is here and I am loviiiing all the sun. Too bad my house sits in the shade, but I'll be thankful when the temp rises. I've seen this fruit salad all over Pinterest lately and I knew I had to give it a go. Again, you know me and my love for simple recipes. Plus this doesn't require any cooking or baking time. I didn't follow the recipe word for word, I did add in fresh strawberry and sprinkle of marshmallows. I also only used about a tablespoon or so of the vanilla instant pudding. I will have to try this again, except with more fresh fruits.
