Fruity Frappe

1/2 can frozen lime juice
1/2 can frozen orange juice
1/2 can frozen lemonade
2 L Gingerale
3 L lemon lime soda

Add all ingredients into a large bowl. It's better to add the lemon lime soda just before serving to keep everything bubbling. I like to keep everything very simple when I throw baby showers, bridal showers, ...

Also, with the extra 1/2 cans of lime juice and lemonade I make lemon/lime juice for those that don't drink carbonation.

Easy Chocolate Fondue

1/2 c. half & half (cream)
1/2 c. chocolate chips.

Warm the cream on the stove (not boil) and slowly add in chocolate chips until they melt. You can make any quantity, just make sure that you have the same amount for each.

This is always a party favorite. I get compliments on my amazing fondue every time. If they only knew how easy it was.

Pork Chops Mexicana

4-5 Pork Chops
1 small can tomato sauce
1/2 packet of taco seasoning
3/4 c. rice
1 1/2 c. water
shredded cheese

Place pork chops in baking pan. Cover with all but shredded cheese. (Make sure the rice has liquid around it) Place aluminum foil over the pan. Bake at 35o degrees for 1 hr. Remove foil and add cheese. Bake for 5 mins.

Oreo Cookies

1 box Devils Food Cake mix
3/4 c. shortening
2 eggs

Filling:
3 oz. pkg. cream cheese
1/4 c. butter
1 1/2 c. powdered sugar

Mix together cakemix, shortening, and eggs, until moist; will be very thick. Roll into small balls and place on cookie sheet; slightly smash. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes only. Cool slightly and place on cooling rack. To make the cookie sandwiches, frost one cookie with filling; place another on top of frosted side.

I haven't tried it yet, but I'm optimistic.
