Key Lime S'mores

Behold the Key Lime s'mores! I found these marshmallows at Walmart and they taste just like a key lime pie - they are even tart in the center. They also make lemon meringue flavor but mine somehow never made it from the conveyor belt to my car? It's a mystery. This is such a fun and summery way to do s'mores - absolutely delicious!

Tip: In a hurry and want to save money? Buy generic brand fudge striped cookies instead of graham crackers and chocolate bars.

Place bars onto crackers and add marshmallows on top. Melt in micowave for 20 seconds. Stack like a sandwich - enjoy!

Toasted Meatball Subs

Really there is no special recipe for this, just an easy dinner idea that is sure to please! I buy the $4.00 bag of frozen meatballs from Walmart (Great Value brand). I also bought cheddar sub bread. I let the meatballs simmer in a pan of spaghetti sauce for about 10 minutes until they are nice and hot, then I open the subs on a cookie sheet and put some meatballs on them with a slice of cheddar cheese. Then I bake them until the cheese is melted. I top with sauteed mushrooms, you could also do jalapenos and olives and Greek peppers. Then I spread mayonnaise on the bread and viola! A masterpiece has been born :)
