Summer Perfect Grilled Peach and Prosciutto Salad

May 25, 2015 By Autumn Rose Reo 27 Comments

Bite into the perfect summer salad with this grilled peach and prosciutto salad.

An avid grocery store fan, I probably go 3-5 times a week. Not just because I don’t always meal plan well and have to pick up a few last-minute items, but because I simply enjoy it – at least most the time.

However, Market Street is one my favorites. I even drive about 15 minutes out of my way because the experience itself is so enjoyable. From the moment you enter the doors, you receive smiles from the staff, opportunities to enjoy the food, you casually fill your cart and then when you finally resolve it’s time to leave, there’s never a long wait to check out AND someone insists to take out your bags. That’s the way it’s always been when it started as United many years ago in West Texas. When I was growing up that was the only grocery store we knew of and that’s what they did then and now. That’s sweet, right?

Just like summer time.

And you know what else is sweet?

Sugar Tree by Kingsburg Orchards at Market Street. The fruits are the exclusive, non-GMO plant breeding program that offers the most unique and exciting fruits available through cross-pollination using bees. From peaches, nectarines, and more, Sugar Tree got me thinking about all kinds of ways to taste summer… through the flesh of a juicy fruit.

I knew that I wanted to try the succulent peach in a recipe that allows it to shine – as the entrée. However, after an incidental run-in with a friend that also owns a few restaurants, I remembered a recipe she used to make on TV that always made me thirst for summertime with grilled peaches. But with my own twist that’s always a crowd pleaser…bacon.

Well, actually better than bacon…prosciutto.

Taking inspiration from my Italian vacation a few years ago, I wrapped the sweet fruit in prosciutto and then paired with spice of red onion, creamy bleu cheese and a little champagne balsamic for a summer dish you’ll crave on the hottest summer days for this grilled peach and prosciutto salad

Grilled Peach and Prosciutto Salad

Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale

2 cups of Arugula or mixed greens

1/4 red onion, sliced thinly
1 tablespoon balsamic dressing

Instructions

First, over high heat on a grill or a stove-top grill (this is what I use), cook peaches until you see grill marks (2 minutes.)
After peaches are slightly cooled, wrap peaches with prosciutto.
Next place greens over a bowl/plate, next a few red onion rings and then crumble bleu cheese.
Then place wrapped peaches over greens.
Lastly, add balsamic dressing or glaze to taste.

Get What You Want at What You Want at Rooms to Go {Sale}

The first time I purchase my first piece of furniture I was around 25 for our first home. I felt like such a big kid and thought, wow – I’m going to have this piece of furniture forever!

Fast forward – one husband, one dog, two cats, and two kids later, and you realize that no matter how durable and great quality your furniture is, the wear and tear of kids, pets, that unfortunate accident when you all played basketball in the living room and your own style changes, makes it necessary to replace and update your furniture from time to time.

And now is a really good time at Rooms To Go. With 10 locations in DFW, more than 20 locations in Texas, and in 10 states nationwide, this Memorial Day weekend there are tons of great sales happening at Rooms to Go with more than 25 coupons to help you save on furniture (DOWNLOAD THE APP or PRINT THESE NOW!)

Lucky for me, I was able to get a sneak peek in store at some of the amazing sets and pieces available for the four-day-only Memorial Day sale. And I found out that while this sale is available both online and in store, remember items may vary based on location.

I could have outfitted my entire house with a whole new look with some of the new trends and offerings especially with the e isofa line . Step aside Starbucks; with isofa you can customize your couch, not just your coffee. Just choose your style, your color and your pillow pillows and in just few days you’ve got a custom couch made just the way you want it. For those of us that can never make up our mind or are often saying “If I could just have that one, in this other color” the isofa line is made for you.

No one can miss the Cindy Crawford HOME or Sofia Vergara Collection offerings at Rooms to Go!

DID YOU KNOW?
You know you’ve seen the commercials of the two of them battling it out for beautiful furniture!?! Well many of the Rooms to Go commercials including the Sofia and Cindy one was filmed in DFW? Cindy Crawford has partnered with R2G for several years to create her classic home collection and the new Sofia’s line adds a whole new level of modern sophisticated selections at Rooms to Go.

If you’re not in the business of a living room or bedroom change, perhaps your dining room or kitchen can use an uplift (especially if you’re one chair down like we are because it’s broken and can’t be fixed.) I eyed several new styles that I’d love to replace my dining room furniture including bench seating like both of these beauties, also on sale this weekend for only $888.

Remember that Father’s Day is just a month away, so now’s the time to get something that dad will love like a new recliner. At buy one recliner, get one 50% off you can actually afford to buy one for each of you! I’m still deciding on two different styles.

Which one do you like best?

Or you can get a blended leather chair and ottoman set for as low as $250!

Or you could just go get him a new TV and a whole new living room. The packages included in this sale are pretty crazy with everything you need to decorate your living room with a couch, loveseat, tables, lamps and more with a 65-inch LED Smart HDTV (I may have not needed a TV, but an upgrade to this one makes it a win-win for less than $2,000.

Smart Home: Four Must-Haves to Automate Your Home

May 15, 2015 By Autumn Rose Reo 11 Comments

Don’t you wish everything ran on a remote?

Well…actually nowadays most everything does and I love it. Home automation is no longer something we wish for and somehow can’t believe we ever did without it! It’s the real deal after a trip to your favorite home-everything store, a few steps to get your connected and you’ll have a smart home.

You know the commercial where the mom and dad are sitting on vacation and realized the kids went home and left all the lights and water running. Then with a quick touch of the phone, the dad is able to turn it all off and resecure the house? As a parent that video is REAL and so is remembering all the times you forgot if you turned off the iron, locked the door or wished you turned on the air conditioner on high before you get home in the middle of a sweltering August day in Texas.

It’s absolutely genius that now all your need is a few of these amazing smart devices and a little help from Siri to never have to turn on the fan or flip a switch ever again. Ready to go shopping at Nebraska Furniture Mart, but don’t know where to start?

Here’s Five Must-Haves to Automate Your Home

Air Conditioner/Heater
Featured: Nest Learning Thermostat

In the south, we are good friends with our thermostat. With freezing temps in the winter and blazing days in the summer, the temperature in your house is more about keeping your family healthy than it is about comfort. And that saying, “don’t like the weather in Texas, just stay around a little while, it”ll change…” it’s totally true. So when you wish you could turn on the heater because the temps have changed 30 degrees since you left the house, with the help of thermostat controls like Nest, it can happen even if your 100 miles away. Nest auto-schedule “learns” your family’s temperature preferences and programs itself in just a week, but also helps keep energy consumption low when there’s no one home.

Lightbulbs
Featured: AwoX StriimLIGHT Color Bulb with 13w Bluetooth Speaker

Lightbulbs aren’t just for illuminating the room anymore; they also become your new stereo system, setting your mood for a party, studytime or when you need to play music to get your child to sleep, but you still want to have your phone with you. While there are several on the market, I loved the AwoX StriimLIGHT Color Bulb with 13w Bluetooth Speaker so much that I recommended it for a stocking stuffer for the whole family. So easy to install, you just place the bulb in one of your regular light sockets and screw it in. Yep, that easy. It provides enough light to keep the room lit as well as immediately synced with my smartphone. I was instantly listening to Rob Thomas broadcasted throughout the room. There’s no need for a bluetooth speaker in every room, just install one of these and viola, you have a new stereo system and multipurpose lightbulb.

Smoke Alarm
Featured: Insteon Smoke Alarm and Bridge Kit

I cannot count on my hands how many times I wondered if I turned off the stove, the coffee pot or my curling iron and thought I could be burning the house down as we speak. No need to worry with the new age of smoke alarms like Insteon Smoke Alarm and Bridge Kit . Now you can get a text or email in case of smoke, carbon monoxide, low battery, all clear, or error messages and it can also be linked to lights or other Insteon devices to turn on lights instantly in the event of an alert.

The Full-Meal Deal
Featured: Insteon Start Here Home Automation Starter Kit

Ready to automate the whole house? With the Insteon Start Here Home Automation Starter Kit, just connect the HUB to your existing home router and start adding devices for total home connectivity. This kit includes the HUB and two dimmers modules which allow you to remotely control one or more lights, regulate the thermostat, monitor water leaks, and with the smoke alarm bridge, you’ll even know if there’s a fire when you’re not home.

It is as easy as just flipping a switch to make your home safer, more comfortable and cost efficient.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun: 80s Night Pizza Party

May 11, 2015 By Autumn Rose Reo 23 Comments

This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and TONY’S® Pizza, but all my opinions are my own. #PMedia #BigPizzeriaTaste
http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV

Finding time just for the girls is next to impossible…and that’s if it ever makes it on the books, right?

As moms we are so centered on making sure the rest of the family gets their perfect balance of learning and fun time with others, we normally sacrifice our own. But it’s not “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” when you reconnect with your friends, it’s also about your own personal wellbeing and setting a good example to your children that life isn’t just about working ALL THE TIME. However, a party doesn’t always have to look like it came off Pinterest. Sometimes you just have to put a date on the calendar, send out some texts and say “come on over!”

And that’s exactly what I did a few days ago when I found myself without a huge list of to-dos…I sent out a text and said let’s do it old-school and remember what it was like before Internet, kids and responsibilities and eating pizza was the purpose of the party: 80s Pizza Party!

With only a few hours to spare before the gals showed up, I went to Walmart to pick up a few key things for an 80s theme including TONY’S® Pizza (now 30% larger and with pizzeria taste!)

And one new item that I didn’t get to enjoy while I was growing up in the 80s – an adult beverage. Keeping up with the evening’s theme I grabbed two ingredients to make our own wine coolers – filling up the glass with a little rose and a splash of sparkling strawberry lemonade (less than $.64 at Walmart.)

While I knew the night would be full of fun and laughs, setting the tone for the evening I found the perfect set of 80s movies with greatest pizza moments of all time.

Mystic Pizza (where we all fell in love with Julia!)
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
Dazed and Confused
The Breakfast Club

Instead of drinking every time we hear a word, we’d eat pizza every time the stars in the movie did, too.

With the help of TONY’S® Pizza and Netflix, I had a fun party in less than 30 minutes. And for less than $3 per pizza, the whole party only cost about what it did for a pair of Keds, circa 1988. Now don’t wait for the special occasion, just send out some texts, download this coupon to save $.75 off any TWO Tony’s Pizza (now until 6/30/15 and while supplies last.)

Don’t you wish life was still as easy as a party with pizza, popcorn, pop and popular quotes?

Celebrate Mother’s Day with a Night Out

May 7, 2015 By Autumn Rose Reo 16 Comments

I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Calvin Klein. I received product samples to facilitate my review as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation. #IC #euphoria4moms

I don’t intentionally mean not to make time for date night, it just happens. We’ll it actually doesn’t happen and that’s the problem.

We both know that it’s important to spend time together away from the kids to concentrate on celebrating parts of our marriage. But it seems so counterintuitive that the thing that is supposed to be a treat – something to look forward to that doesn’t require me to cook, clean or work, but instead have a good time, shouldn’t be so much work to make it happen. Finding the time, a babysitter, what to wear, what to do, where to go, and making sure things are good for the kids, etc. is a lot to coordinate and that’s just to get out the door. But I made a commitment that this time we wouldn’t let it just pass by on the calendar, we would go, experience something new, put on some and do it when we never go out – a weekday.

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, we would celebrate with a night on the town to FINALLY go to one of the “bucket list” restaurants we had been eyeing, Clark Food & Wood Co. And I would make it a point to dress up, wear something new, instead of something I had owned for years, and feel good about myself – you know, like you would have done when you first started dating and a date was a really big deal.

Ironically, when I went to look for a dress at, I was surrounded by young girls, having their makeup done, their hair done and beautiful dresses…it was prom season and I was smack dab in the middle of the beauty portion. However, it kinda added to my preparation period to and now I also wanted to make our night memorable, too. While our evening didn’t call for sequins, I wanted something when I slipped it on it made me feel alluring, sexy and make my husband drool – just a little. A few sprays of euphoria Calvin Klein, with its exotic florals and hints of mahogany wood, was exactly the right touch to make this day the “every day special occasion.”

The night at Clark Food and Wine Co. on Lower Greenville was ideal with the perfect patio temperature to enjoy eating outdoors and taking our time to exploring the menu that’s designed for sharing. Starting with craft cocktails including roasted bone marrow with truffle, grilled Texas Bobwhite quail, and a mind-blowing charcuterie with a rabbit and pork pate that I couldn’t stop eating and a buttermilk bleu cheese with honeycomb combo that could be dessert within itself.

We tried things we don’t normally eat and best of all, there were even options for those are gluten-sensitive so we didn’t have to make big exceptions to the dining experience. Kinda like a song, the evening was right, the food was right and the delicious Sangiovese we enjoyed down to the last drop made the night one for the books. While we bit into the bites of housemade picked and caper berries, we actually had the opportunity to talk about things that weren’t work or kid related, but us – the ones we met when we first met and decided to create a family together.

[Tweet “Celebrate #MothersDay w/ a Night Out! @Dillards, @clarkfoodwineco & #euphoria4moms #IC #ad”]

While I’ll love the Mother’s Day cards the kids will give me on Sunday with the breakfast of Pop Tarts they’ll make, this Mother’s Day it was nice to celebrate a night out with the other part of me that made me a mother…my husband.

Make your Mother’s Day mean more when euphoria Calvin Klein. Now through Mother’s Day, purchase a large spray from the euphoria Calvin Klein fragrance collection at and receive a complimentary live orchid.

Urgent Care For Kids at Your Door in an Hour

May 6, 2015 By Autumn Rose Reo 18 Comments

Ever been thrown up on by your kid?

Funny how it never happens during the day when the pediatrician’s office is open, but rather after hours when you have little to no option to take them anywhere. AND after cleaning them up, you up and everything else up, you then get to go to some dodgy after hours care place and wait your turn all while holding your sick kid in your arms in the middle of the night. Not to mention if you have more than one kid and a single parent, you’re loading up the whole gang for the trip – and we aren’t talking about a vacation.

Those are the days (and nights, actually) that put the CHALLENGE in www.mamachallenge.com.

But we’ve got a solution and it comes at the click of your finger.

What’s the best gift you’ve been given for Mother’s Day?

Some moms may receive a piece of jewelry. Others might unwrap an appliance like a mixer or a vacuum. And others, well we don’t necessarily get anything at all.

Ironically it’s not that we expect something huge or extravagant. However, something like flowers or something that makes us feel good about ourselves goes a long way to say “thank you,” “I love you” and “you’re special.”

This Mother’s Day say all of that and more with one purchase for euphoria Calvin Klein.

Now through Mother’s Day, buy a large spray of euphoria Calvin Klein fragrance collection at Macy’s and and you’ll also receive a beautiful live orchid with your purchase.

Many women work to find a fragrance that personifies them and gets people to notice when they walk into a room because the scent is intoxicating and calls for attention in addictive way. With a long day of diapers, dishes and making dinner, it’s an incredible feeling of escape with just a few drops of euphoria Calvin Klein to make you feel mysterious, sexy and feminine.

With creamy notes of pomegranate, persimmon touched with rich black orchid and the champaca flower, euphoria Calvin Klein is a unique scent featuring seductive florals and exotic fruits. The signature of the scent is based with a sexy liquid amber and mahogany wood.

The heart of euphoria Calvin Klein is captured in the unique bottle inspired by the sophisticated design of the sensuous orchid with an amethyst color with a sleek silver top.

Best of all with this special coupling Mother’s Day is taken care of for you and him…

Cheer Up with Cherries: Gluten-Free Black Forest Brownies

April 24, 2015 By Autumn Rose Reo 25 Comments

If life is a bowl full of cherries then I know why I’m so giddy to share these next two dishes featured the sweet-red fruit.

Yes, it’s cherry time and Market Street has delicious cherries in store ripe for the picking.

But other than the beautiful color and stems make for hours of fun, what do you really know about cherries?

Did you know?

Potassium: Cherries are a good source of potassium. 1 cup = approx. 270 mg. Potassium plays an important role in muscle, heart, kidney and nerve cell function. It also helps counterbalance sodium, which helps maintain water levels throughout the body.
Antioxidants: Cherries contain Beta Carotene, Vitamin C and Quercetin. Combined, this trio can help prevent cancer, heart disease and can also help slow the signs of aging.. Also cherries have heart-health benefits because Anthocyanins (antioxidants) give cherries their red color. Those antioxidants may help reduce inflammation and cholesterol.
Melatonin: Cherries contain melatonin (which helps regulate sleep cycles) and may be helpful for getting a better night of sleep and fighting jet lag.

And cherries aren’t just good for you to eat….they also keep you full longer with high fiber and lots of water content.

[Tweet “1 cup of cherries contains 90 cal., 3 gr. fiber + can prevent overeating. #MarketStreetDFW #Ad “]

All this talk about cherries stirred up a severe craving for black forest cake. Unfortunately, since we’re trying to be a gluten-free, black forest cake seemed a little out of the picture (and way more work than I was willing to give that day.) However, a recent find at Market Street, my go-to resource for tons of GF sweets and pastas, I found a great mix from Namaste. Using the mix as the base, I cooked up the cherries with a little sugar and covered the top of the dough with the cherry concoction followed by some large dark chocolate chunks for good measure.

After about 30 minutes in the oven, I almost couldn’t take the aroma of the chocolate and cherries any longer. The smell was intoxicating so I could only hope the taste was at least half as good. Too bad I had to let ’em cool just enough to sink my teeth into…

HEAVEN. Chocolatey, cherry fabulousness. Like really. That good. And only a few ingredients until you have one of the best desserts I’ve eaten in a long time.

Gluten-Free Black Forest Brownies

Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale

2–3 cups fresh pitted cherries
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon almond extract or vanilla

Brownie Mix:

1/2 package of Namaste Foods Gluten-Free Brownie Mix
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine cherries, water, juice, sugar and cornstarch.
Bring to a boil; reduce heat and cook about 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
Stir in almond extract.
Allow to cool slightly before using.
Meanwhile, prepare brownie mix as instructed.
Fill mix in a pan.
Drop tablespoons of cherry filling across the top (12-16 piles across the top.)
Using a knife, swirl cherries across the top in a swirl pattern.
Sprinkle chocolate chips across the top.
Cook for 35-38 minutes in the oven.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.

That’s not the only thing that got the cherry juices flowing…just check out the Cherries Jubilee Grilled Cheese I made for the 2015 Grilled Cheese Recipe Showdown, now until May 12.

With a $15,000 grand prize it’s worth an afternoon of cheese, bread and whatever else you think will make an award-winning grilled cheese. If you don’t do it for the contest, then at least make sure you don’t let Grilled Cheese Month get away from you without a little celebration (although a grilled cheese never needs a reason to be celebrated!)

And if you are still craving cherries, Market Street has many cheery cherry recipes on Pinterest.

Fight Hunger Spark Change to Donate 75 Million Meals with Walmart

April 20, 2015 By Autumn Rose Reo 20 Comments

In Arlington, Texas, we are all about teams…

AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys

Make a difference with the #FightHungerSparkChange campaign at Walmart, now until May 3. Learn more at http://wm8.walmart.com/Hunger

Globe Life Park, Home of the Texas Rangers

Walmart, Home to the Fight Hunger Spark Change campaign

Our local Walmart is planted directly in between Globelife Park, home of the Texas Rangers and AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys. However, this time our team is setting out to fight hunger with the Fight Hunger Spark Change campaign.

When you look around you, wherever you are, at the store, at work, at school it’s hard to think that 1 in 6 of those people you are looking at, talking to or passing in the hallway or in the aisle is struggling with hunger.

With such astronomical proportions, it’s really hard to even begin to think how you can help.

However, now until May 3, by just buying specially marked items you already buy regularly at Walmart, snap a shot of six friends or by just making a donation at your local Walmart, you can make a difference to FIGHT HUNGER SPARK CHANGE to have 75,000,000 meal donations to local food banks with Feeding America.

Yes, it’s that easy to make a difference!

1) For each participating product purchased at Walmart now May 3, suppliers will make a donation to help secure one meal* on behalf of local Feeding America food banks. Together with Campbell’s, ConAgra Foods, General Mills, Kellogg Company, Kraft and Unilever, Walmart hopes to secure 75 million meals* by the end of the campaign. For more information and a list of participating products, please visit walmart.com/fighthunger.

2) Walmart customers can donate to their local Feeding America food bank at the registers of any participating Walmart.

3) Share the movement on your social media channels to generate a donation.

Here’s how it works:

Take a picture of six people who commit to solving hunger
Post your picture on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and connect it to the hashtag #WeSparkChange—make sure your post is public so it can be seen and counted
Share your post
Walmart will donate $10 for every qualifying post, up to $1.5 million**

We’re only half way there today and only a few weeks left to help make it to 75,000, o00. I know you’ll be doing some grocery shopping in the next three weeks – just make sure to grab the boxes with the sticker “FIGHT HUNGER SPARK CHANGE” and your item = one meal.

If you don’t think hunger is a problem for you or those people are around you, you might want to think twice.
