Don't forget to look for coupons in the store

The next time you go shopping, keep your eyes open to the possibility of picking up more coupons! They are all over the store and you never know when they might come in handy. I picked up this "salad guide" from Dole yesterday. It was in a little holder right next to the Dole salad display. There's lots of helpful information inside about their new salads and their system of the salad guide and such.....


but the most helpful thing to me was another .75/1 coupon! I'm going to hang onto this and hopefully Family Fresh Foods will have another salad sale of $1.50, making the salad FREE!

FREE taco at Taco Bell coupon!


Go over here to print a FREE Taco Bell taco coupon! This was available in the past, now it's been reset. FYI- the coupon expires a week from the time you print it.

Recipe of the week: Chocolate Raspberry Cheescake- Guest Post


Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake
** I thought you might like a decadent type recipe for Valentine's Day! (Something just a little more exciting than granola or wheat bread.) This too-die-for recipe is from my cute real-life sister, Lindsay!

Prep: 40 min Bake 65 min. + chilling Yield: 16 servings


1-1/2 cups oreo cookie crumbs

2 T butter, melted

4 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

1-1/4 c sugar

1 c (8 oz) sour cream

1 t vanilla extract

3 eggs, lightly beaten

9 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped

1/2 c seedless raspberry preserves

Topping:

6 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped

1/3 c heavy whipping cream

fresh raspberries and whipped cream, optional (but not really:)


Combine cookie crumbs and butter; press onto the bottom of a greased 9 inch springform pan.


In large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in sour cream and vanilla. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Set aside 1-1/2 cups; pour remaining batter over crust.


In a microwave, melt chocolate; stir in preserves until blended. Stir in reserved batter just until blended. Drop by tablespoonfuls over the plain better (do not swirl). Place springform pan in a large baking pan; add 1 in. hot water to larger pan.


Bake at 325 degrees for 65-75 minutes or until center is just set and top appears dull. Remove springform pan from water bath. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully run a knife around edge of pan to loosen; cool 1 hour longer.


For topping, place chocolate in a small bowl. In a small saucepan, bring cream just to a boil. Pour over chocolate; whisk until smooth. Cool slightly. Spread over top of cheesecake. Refrigerate overnight. Garnish with raspberries and whipped cream if desired.
Hi, I'm Lindsay. I've been married for almost 8 years to an awesome, funny man, and have 3 cute kids. I enjoy cooking, spending time with my family, and working out. I've recently discovered the joy of Mod Podge and I've been busily creating things ever since.
Heather and I are sisters (no family resemblance there, right:-) She asked me if I would post my cheesecake recipe for Valentine's weekend. It's so yummy, enjoy!
