Happy Monday!!! I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! I enjoyed some much needed time with family and hope you did too!


With Thanksgiving over it (sad face), it is time to look forward to the next upcoming holidays. To get in the spirit I have tons (and I mean TONS) of special and fun holiday themed posts to share in the upcoming month. I also have lots of giveaways in store for you! Hip-Hip-Hooray!


First up a giveaway for Del Monte canned fruits and vegetables and a $25 Visa gift card! Continue reading below to find out how to enter the giveaway and make sure and check back later today for a favorite soup recipe using canned tomatoes.

Here is some information about Del Monte canned fruits and vegetables:

•Del Monte canned fruits, vegetables, and tomatoes contain the same essential nutrients as fresh varieties.

•Del Monte fruits and vegetables are grown in the best growing regions of the United States, providing consumers with a consistently quality product.

•The majority of Del Monte products are picked at the peak of ripeness and canned on the same day, to ensure nutrients and flavor are locked in.

For more information check out Del Monte:

•DelMonte.com

•Del Monte on Facebook

And if you are a fan of Del Monte be sure and participate in their current “Add Some Garden” contest and campaign.

    I added my Corn tamales recipe to the sweeps and I would like to share it here as well. It is a very simple and delicious recipe and an alternative for all those who don't like meat tamales. You Only need the tamales masa mix prepare as directed , mix it with a can of Del Monte Canned Corn, spread the mix on the husks and fold them. Steam for about 1 hour, you can serve them with salsa or dip, I personally like them with the avocado dip
