I have to tell you – I was so excited when I got my first bag of Watkins pizza crust mix (whole wheat of course!) It was so easy to make – add water, knead, let rise. I went out and picked banana peppers, green pepper, red pepper, fresh basil and some roma tomatoes. I sliced all the peppers so thin, did a chiffonade on the basil and did rounds of roma. The crust spread out on my pizza stone so nice. Then, the Watkins garlic grapeseed oil – just a thin layer – I put all of the veggies on, sprinkled a little freshly grated asiago cheese and some 2% shredded mozzarella – :15 minutes later I had a pizza you would’ve paid $25 for at Pizza Fusion!!! Unbelieveable!
I can’t tell you how glad I am that Watkins is here for us all. Gourmet, affordable and organic. It’s so important to feed your body the fuel it needs.
Have I told you lately that I’ve lost 40 lbs? If that’s not incentive – what is? Follow me people! To good health!

I have a confession – sometimes I’m a lazy cook. It’s true. Creative, but sometimes – just not into it. Last night I was SO tired and faced with making dinner when I really wanted to be floating in the pool, what to do?
Here’s what I did – I spiced it UP!! I made pan-fried green beans and used Watkins Liquid Garlic with Watkins Pepper and Sea Salt – then I microwaved (yes, I did…) baked potatoes and topped them with leftover Watkins Crab Snack Dip from a party we had this weekend, threw Ribeye steaks on the grill, seasoned them with the Watkins Organic Beef Seasoning – then served them with Watkins Steak Sauce!! Everything was ready in less than :30 minutes and the flavors just exploded! It was one of the best dinners ever.
You can pull this off too! Just visit the new Watkins site (links are on the right!) and see all the products just waiting to spice up your life! Remember, we’re Independent Associates #383996.
Oh, and if you see my family around – don’t tell them about me being lazy, it’s our secret!
Thanks!

One of the best things about being a kid was that every year on my birthday Mom made my favorite dinner – BBQ Ribs. Oh, I love BBQ Ribs! Tender, juicy, fall off the bone sweet ribs – just a touch of charcoal – oh, my!
I love ribs so much I worked for a rib restaurant for 14 years. I KNOW how to cook them. The key? The perfect sauce!!! I’ve tried them all – tangy, vinegar base, rubs, mustard, molasses, hickory, designer “apple infused” – bourbon – all of them. Well, let me tell you – I’ve just tried Watkins new BBQ sauce – it’s now my “perfect” sauce! It’s so good – after basting there was a little left in the bowl – and I scooped it back into the bottle! Seriously!
June is BBQ month and Watkins is featuring their sauce this month. Try it, you’ll love it. Just follow the link on our page and order some. Of course, our Associate number is 383996 – let me know what you think!
Oh, and if you do – drop me a line and I’ll share my rib cooking secrets with you!
