This article might be an unusual one, given the fact that I have always been posting about food and recipes in my blog. However, I always wanted to touch base, and post an article on health supplements and its usage. While there is no doubt about the fact that nothing can replace a healthy and nutritious meal or a peaceful 7-8 hours’ sleep or even a balanced and frequent workout. Yet the additional dietary supplements on top of our diet, are inevitable. There are significant advantages of including additional supplements in our diet. Trust me, this is the first-hand experience and I feel comfortable sharing my journey with it. This blog post is dedicated to it and I would like to highlight those.

Banana Pudding Dessert is a decadent dessert with layers of cream cheese, banana slices, vanilla pudding with whipped cream, and an optional peanut butter topping, all on top of a vanilla wafer crust. If you love creamy banana desserts, be sure to try my Ultimate Banana Pudding!
This Banana Pudding Dessert is the ultimate creamy banana treat that is layered with flavors, including an optional drizzle of melted peanut butter to top it all off! In addition to the homemade vanilla pudding in this recipe, you could also make homemade vanilla wafers and whipped cream if you are feeling motivated!
There are four important parts (layers) to this recipe–the homemade vanilla pudding, vanilla wafer cookie crust, cream cheese layer, and the toppings.
Pudding Ingredients (full recipe below)
Crust Ingredients
Cream Cheese Layer Ingredients
Toppings
It’s best to start with the homemade pudding first. This will need to chill for about half an hour after it’s made. While the pudding is chilling, you can work on making the other important parts to this recipe.
(Full recipe in a recipe card below) It’s really easy to make your own vanilla pudding. Pudding is a great dessert to have on hand, and most people like the smooth, creamy sweet (and sometimes even savory) treat. Plus, if you make a little extra, it’s nice to have as a snack or loaded with your favorite chocolate candy or treat.
While the pudding is chilling, prepare the crust. Did you know you can make your own homemade vanilla wafers? I have a homemade vanilla wafer recipe you might want to try for this recipe, or just to have some cookies on hand!
To make the vanilla wafer crust, add the cookies to a food processor and process until you have a fine crumb. You could also use a rolling pin to roll over the cookies that are in sealed plastic baggies to get them into fine crumbs. A hammer also works, but just gentle taps!
In a medium bowl, combine the crushed wafers and melted butter until the mixture is combined. Press the crust in the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan (no need to grease the pan). Chill the crust while you prepare the cream cheese layer.
To make the cream cheese layer, simply combine the room temperature cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar, and one cup of the whipped topping. If you forgot to take out the cream cheese to get it to room temperature (which usually takes about 30 minutes), unwrap the cream cheese and place it in a microwave-safe container, heating it up in 15-second increments until the edges are softened.
Once all the parts to this dessert have been made, it’s time to get it assembled and chilled so everyone can enjoy it!
Store the dessert, covered and chilled, for a couple of days.

Forget going to a restaurant, Mr.Steak brings you the most delicious meats right to your door step! We tried one of Mr. Steak’s curated boxes and here’s our review.
Our steaks are all sourced from ranches within a 250 miles radius Omaha, Nebraska, a region known as “The Napa Valley of Beef.” Our beef is pasture-raised and finished on grain to produce the highest quality levels of marbling. This ensures both tenderness and a distinctive, rich buttery flavor.
We feature USDA Prime beef, which is the top 2-3% of all beef in the nation. Each steak is hand-selected for marbling, texture, and tenderness before being aged in house and shipped to your door. All of our ranchers are committed to the most humane and ethical practices in the industry, many are multi-generational families, and some grow their own crops for their cattle right on the ranch.
All of our steaks are from the same local ranches that supply many of the finest steakhouses in America. I hope our bold, deeply flavorful and supremely tender steaks will elevate your cooking experience so that “You Too can be Mr. Steak.”
We chose to review the “Big Boy’s Bone-In” box:
The packaging is completely recyclable and the lining is biodegradable.
Tonight, we’re cooking the Bone-in Kansas City Strip and the 32oz Cowboy Steak…YES 32 OUNCES!!!
With meat of this quality, all you need is a simple seasoning blend of salt, pepper and a touch of garlic powder. No marinades.
Included in the box is a recipe for the Mr. Steak Magic Sauce, which is butter, garlic, grated parmesan and a little bit of truffle olive oil. I added in some freshly minced herbs from the garden. This is what we’ll use to brush on the steaks to finish.
I also threw on some russet potatoes (I threw the potatoes in the microwave for 5 minutes to give them a head start. Then rubbed olive oil, heavily sprinkled on salt, threw them on the grill for 45 minutes or so).
OH. MY.
Poor Duke. He was so patient, and so good while I took photos.
Superb. Excellent even marbling throughout. So much beefy flavor. Hands down the best steak we’ve had all year long.
I can’t remember the last time I stepped foot in a fancy steakhouse. I think it was last December. While I love the experience and ambiance of a high end steakhouse, it’s an expensive affair. Half the time, my boyfriend and I will whisper to each other, “our steaks at home are better than this!”
In addition, with the pandemic, restaurant closures, just the “unknowns” of eating out, we’ve gotten *really* good at grilling steaks at home with our wood pellet grill.
With Mr. Steak, you can get the exact same quality meats as the fancy restaurants. Mr.Steak can send you USDA Prime beef (top 2-3% of all beef) Each steak is hand-selected for marbling, texture, and tenderness before being aged in-house and shipped to your door.

Do I love quinoa? No.
Do I love this luscious and juicy summery salad, which does, in fact, contain quinoa? YES.
If you are a quinoa hater – I think I can get you on board with this salad. I really do.
This gem of a salad is a win for anyone who:
The amount of texture and flavor here is staggering. We have quinoa and corn making the base, marinated tomatoes as the juicy crown jewel, avocado to butter things up, shallot, chives, cilantro, lime zest and lime juice to wake you ALL THE WAY up, and Cotija cheese for just the tiniest bit of something creamy / crumbly (just omit if you’re vegan).
Let me just say this: it’s been a long time since I loved a quinoa salad as much as I love this one.
And maybe just a salad in general.
Healthy, but not too healthy. Punchy, textured, and craveable at all hours. Colorful and happy. Exactly how I like to eat.
And if you keep the avocados out until just before serving, it can be a lunches-made-ahead thing that will keep the mood high all the week long.
Quinoa, you win.
Prep Time: 30 minutes Cook Time: 10 minutes Total Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 6 generous servingsThe perfect summery quinoa salad – fresh corn, buttery avocado, nutty quinoa, juicy marinated tomatoes, and tons of fresh herbs. SO GOOD.

If you’re using regular tomatoes instead of marinated tomatoes, you’ll want to add some fresh grated garlic, salt, and olive oil to compensate for the missing juices!
