Game Night - Dice Cheese Blocks





The dice cheese blocks were pinspired by this pin here.  Unfortunately the pin link itself leads you to a blog round up which leads you to a dead source.  On the other hand, the pin image itself gives you the right idea just not the materials.  So here's my blog post on what I used an how I made it.


Pin Rating: 5

Ingredients:
  • Frozen Grapes (I had grapes left over from the PB+Chicken salad wraps 
    • Frozen grapes are easier to cut in my opinion and it also holds it's shape well.  You can also use olives but since I had left over grapes I used those instead.
  • Cheese block (Or some sort of soft cheese that you can mold)
  • Toothpicks 
  • Crackers
  • Dice (for a sample on where to place grapes if you care for accuracy)

PB+Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps




Pin Rating: 5

I feel like it's been a while since I had a pin rating post so I'm starting this off with a 5 pin rating post.  I originally pinned this recipe for PB+Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps because it seemed like a nice quick, easy and delicious recipe to try, and it was!  I'm sure I could have made this dish in one swoop, but since I was taking on so many different dishes the next morning before the party I liked this one because I was able chop and prep it and then refrigerate it.  The recipe card makes 1 serving but I multiplied it for the party so see my adjustments below.

Serves 3
Ingredients :
  • 1 1/2 cup chopped cooked chicken breast
  • 1/2 green apple
  • 1 bunch of grapes or 1/3 cup
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter 
  • 3 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • Iceberg lettuce
