Take 5 Apple Salad {+ Candy Recipe Round-Up!}

November 5, 2018 / 0 Comments

As promised, I’m back with another version of the Apple Snicker Bar Salad from a few weeks ago!

And I must say, in my book, this version is an upgrade. Take 5s are one of my favorite – maybe even THE absolute favorite – candy bars, and they pair pretty perfectly with a bowl of apples and pudding.

Anyone else grow up eating this classic?

This is picnic and potluck food at its finest. It’s not high-class cuisine by any means and you won’t find it served at any formal event. But it’s easy, it feeds a crowd, it calls for chopped candy bars and it’s still considered a “salad.” This is an all-around win.

Are you a traditional Thanksgiving feaster, or do you prefer a more out-of-the-box dinner on Turkey Day?

I’m a big fan of the traditional Thanksgiving spread, but I also love getting creative with the menu. Lucky for me, I have a big family, so most holidays involve a little of both.

BOO!

Did I scare you? :)

It’s been a long year of doctor visits, fatigue, and unanswered health concerns, but I’m feeling a million times better after God healed me in an amazing way a few weeks ago!

After spending a week at Mayo Clinic, seeing various local and far-away specialists, quitting the full-time job that I was no longer able to handle, and trying every conceivable remedy to cure my overwhelming exhaustion, I quite simply felt like my body was slowly wasting away.
