How many of you meditate? I’ll be honest, I’ve tried it and then stopped, tried and then stopped…you see where I’m going with this?! However, I find this 21-day meditation program and so far so good. I like that they are guided and my mind doesn’t seem to wander as much with these. So I thought — if I can do it, so can you!

Did you know that meditation is good for:

  1. reducing stress

  2. controlling anxiety

  3. lengthening your attention span - that’s got to be good right?!

  4. reducing age-related memory loss (umm…yeah that’s me)

  5. generating kindness and truthfully, that benefit outweighs all the others

This recipe comes from one of my favorite dessert bloggers — Cookies and Cups. She always tries a recipe over and over to make sure it is flawless. For instance, this one is the perfect ratio of Fruity Pebbles to Rice Krispies. I don’t usually add the extra marshmallows at the end but that’s just because I’m lazy. I told you I like things to be easy!

  • 10 cups mini marshmallows, divided

  • 4 cups Krispie Cereal

  • 2 cups Fruity Pebbles

  • ½ tsp salt

Instructions

Line a 9×9 pan with foil and spray lightly with cooking spray, set aside.

I like to give you recipes that I’ve actually tried, and this one is tried and true and a frequent flyer on my rotation. It fits my checklist for a recipe:

  1. EASY

  2. Fast

  3. Delicious

It makes a lot so you can serve a lot of people, freeze the leftovers, or cut it in half (for 4 people). It’s so so good served on a bed of salad if you’re trying to stay away from bread. This pulled pork recipe is full of flavor.

 

 

Ingredients:

For the pork:

  • 4 lb. boneless skinless pork shoulder cut into 4-5" pieces

  • pork rub spice mixture recipe below, or 4-5 tablespoons of your favorite pre-mixed pork rub

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 1 onion halved and sliced

  • 1/2 cup water
