Mango Peach Almond Pound Cake Trifle


Today after my vendor event with the Forest Service I had some left over Absolutely Almond Pound Cake. My husband loves this dessert and since it was already cubed I decided to whip him up something special!

Mango Peach Almond Pound Cake Trifle

Ingredients:
1 Mango - diced
2 Peaches - diced
Absolutely Almond Pound Cake - bake as directed on box and cube
Cool Whip - omit this for dairy free (mine was just as good!)

Directions:
Layer ingredients and serve chilled. Any fruit will work! I used fresh but frozen or canned can also be subbed.

Perfectly Potato Cheddar Quiche

Sorry about my lack of posting recipes lately. Truth is nothing new has been happening in my kitchen with being pregnant and all. Now that I am finally well into the second trimester, currently at 18 weeks I am finally starting to cook again for my family. My husband couldn't be happier! If you would like to hear more about our baby adventure make sure to check out our family update blog at: Life As A Gunn.


Here was tonight's dinner - This recipe is of course from Tastefully Simple using our Perfectly Potato Cheddar Soup Mix. It is a standard item and the only soup you can purchase year round in our catalog.


Perfectly Potato Cheddar Quiche

Ingredients
1 cup dry Perfectly Potato Cheddar Soup Mix (note this is NOT a dairy free product)
1 1/4 cups hot water
3 slightly beaten eggs
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
3 - 4 strips cooked, crumbled bacon
9-inch prepared pie crust


(can sub the cheese out with Daiya or just omit to help the dairy factor)

Directions
Whisk first 3 ingredients in medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Let stand 5 minutes. Place cheese and bacon in pie crust. Pour egg mixture over bacon mixture. Bake at 400° for 45 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting. Makes 4 servings.
