Family Fun Friday: Copycat Recipes

Celebrate with Food!

copycat recipes

Hey moms!  Here is a great dish for movie night, a weekend lunch, or an after school playdate: Restaurant Style Loaded Bacon Nachos by Do It All Working Mom. Nachos…and BACON! Winner 🙂

Save some bucks…on Starbucks!  Make Starbucks Strawberries Creme Frappaccino at home. Thanks to Frugal Coupon Living, you don’t have to give up your Starbucks to save money…just make it at home!

Here is a great treat for summer.  It is over 90 degrees here in Arizona already! So if you’re already roasting like us, Copy Cat Chick-Fil-A Frosted Lemonade by Raining Hot Coupons will help you cool down.

I love that Wheel-N-Deal Mama knows about the Arizona heat!  But it’s a dry heat? Puh-leeeze! Her solution? Homemade Choco Tacos! I think this would be a fun project for the kids to help with too!

But for serious summer fun, my kiddos would always pick an M&M’s Ice Cream Sandwich Cookies Family Night Treat. I Dig Pinterest shows us how!  I think my kiddos would have fun making them with me, but a hard time waiting for them to come out of the freezer!

In order to end on a healthier note, I chose a Paleo-friendly recipe for Homemade Granola Bars.  Blogging Mom of 4 says these hit the spot when you have a chocolate craving…yum!

When the first day of school is also the day your When the first day of school is also the day your firstborn drives herself to college, it’s a lot. We moved her stuff into her dorm last week. Today she got up early to say goodbye to Dad (too early! Not pictured 😂), her brother, her doggo, her piano, and her momma. Before she left, she made blueberry scones to share with her little bro @sjoshlafont —they homeschool and relocated together, went to @westminsteroakmtn together, and have shared a love of music, Legos, superheroes (and villains), Transformers, and so much more. She played my favorite song. She even made banana bread to bring to her new roomie. @graciethenerd You are my little nut brown hare, and I love you to the moon and back. Auburn University is a better place because you are there! ❤️

Also, so grateful for the wonderful school where she spent the last four years—the perfect place to land after years of homeschooling on the move. “For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.” (Ps 100:5) #curatingthegood #graduated🎓 #wisebeyondheryears @graciethenerd @lafonte04 @westminsteroakmtn
