Vanilla Iced Coffee

While I am not a coffee drinker, I am slowly becoming obsessed with iced coffees.  A coupon for a free Dunkin Donuts Iced Coffee every Monday for two months came in the mail and I just started falling in love.  However, I do not want to spend a lot of money (or points) drinking these fancy ones too often so I wanted an easy recipe to make at home.  This is the perfect pick-me-up before work or just because :)

Okay so this isn't a recipe as much as an OMG you must try this post.  This isn't sponsored or anything, this is simply my current obsession.  I'll admit I am just like everyone else and in love with pumpkin during this time of the year.  So of course when I saw the pumpkin spice bagel thins at the grocery store, I could not pass them up.  Pair a toasted pumpkin spice bagel thin with a cinnamon cream cheese laughing cow wedge and oh my goodness!!!  I won't lie this is definitely my motivation to wake up for work in the mornings.  It is that good.  And for only FOUR points plus, you can't beat it.

Easy Cheesy Orzo

I am currently obsessing over food trucks.  I love how they take typical foods and give them a fancy twist.  Here is my take on typical mac and cheese.  This orzo is so rich and cheesy, it is the perfect side dish with burgers or chicken.  I made it with the french onion burger bites and it was definitely a delicious meal!
