Rice Krispies Bird’s Nest Treats

(All posts may contain affiliate links or sponsored content. Please see my disclosure policy)  

Easter is quickly approaching and these Rice Krispies Bird’s Nest Treats are always a hit at my house. The boys love to help me make them and they are very yummy! You can change out the candies inside if you prefer something else over M&M’s.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 1 package (10 oz., about 40) JET-PUFFED Marshmallows
  • 4 cups JET-PUFFED Miniature Marshmallows
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
  • Bag of Speckled Easter Egg M&M’s

DIRECTIONS:

Melt the butter in the microwave for about 1 minute.

Add in the marshmallows and stir with the butter. Place back in the microwave for about 1 minute and 45 seconds. Stir together until completely melted together and smooth.

Place the Rice Krispies in the mixture and stir completely.

Have a 12-count Muffin pan already sprayed with Cooking Spray ready to go.

Take a generous amount of the mixture and place in each Cupcake slot.

While the slots are still soft, take a spoon and create a small hole in the middle of each one to form a nest or basket.

Let the nests harden for about 10-15 minutes. You can also go back at this time to adjust your nests and take out more of the mixture if needed.

Add in the speckled M&M’s to your nests.

Eat and Enjoy!

You could really use whatever candies that you like in the middle of the nests but I love these speckled M&M’s for Easter!

Spring Into Easter with Crayola!

Disclosure: I was provided with products from Crayola in exchange for my honest review.  All thoughts and opinions are own. Please see my disclosure policy)

My 13 year old son Drew loves rockets, space and drawing. When you combine those 3 things together, his imagination can run wild! One of our favorite tools for drawing has always been Crayola products. They offer a wide variety of crayons, pencils and markers that can make any drawing come to life!

Crayola recently introduced several new Signature Series products for 2019 and we were excited to try some of them! These products would be great fillers for those Easter baskets! I love that Crayola is always expanding their lines and bringing art to a new level!

Crayola has expanded its premium line of sophisticated art tools, Crayola Signature, with a new line of Pearlescent tools and Gallery Wall kit! Innovative, sleek and elegant, Crayola Signature products elevate coloring tools to a new level of artistry. Perfect for enthusiasts, crafters and hobbyists alike, the markers, colored pencils, paints and kits in this new line are designed for amazing results.

Signature Pearlescent Cream Sticks (SRP: $14.99) Crayola Signature Pearlescent Cream Sticks offer 10 creamy colors in a smooth formula that’s perfect for fine art or craft projects. These versatile art tools can be used dry or add a bit of water for blending and work great for other effects like edging, large area shading and water color effects like spritzing or dripping.

Drew was excited to choose the Crayola Signature Pearlescent Cream Sticks and the Signature Pearlescent Paint Markers. I was amazed at how vibrant the pigment was in the markers and the cream sticks are so cool as they can be used dry or wet! If you have a budding artist in your house, these items would be great additions for their Easter basket!

Review of the Tupperware Microwave Breakfast Maker Set

Disclosure: I was provided with the Tupperware Microwave Breakfast Maker Set to facilitate my review. All thoughts and opinions are own. Please see my disclosure policy)

I don’t know about you, but one of my favorite things to start each morning with is a breakfast of eggs. Whether they be scrambled, hard-boiled, over easy or even poached, I love eggs! They are such a great source of protein and energy to get my going in the right direction.

When my friend Leah, who is a Tupperware Consultant, offered to let me review the Tupperware Microwave Breakfast Maker Set, I was super excited to do so! This set allows you to make omelets, oatmeal and even french toast right in the microwave in just minutes! As a busy mom, this is right up my alley! Would you believe that I was able to make that gorgeous omelet in the picture above in the microwave? Yes, it is that easy! I simply added my veggies and 2 eggs to a bowl mixed them up and added them to the breakfast maker. I placed it in the microwave for around 2 1/2 minutes and voila! The perfect omelet! I can’t wait to try french toast for my boys!

With the Tupperware Microwave Breakfast Maker Set, you will receive a 1 3/4 cup breakfast maker and two Egg inserts that will allow you to make poached eggs and egg patties. Priced at just $29, I believe that this is a great value for the money considering you will use it multiple times a week. There is no reason to not cook a quick healthy breakfast! The Tupperware Microwave Breakfast Maker Set is dishwasher safe AND comes with a Lifetime Warranty. If for any reason it cracks, splits or peels, Tupperware will replace it for free! Wow-that is an awesome guarantee! 

How would you like to try the Tupperware Microwave Breakfast Maker Set for FREE? Yes you read that right! Right now when you book a Tupperware party with my friend Leah (it is easy to do and can be done right online) you will get one for FREE!

If you are interested in hosting a party with Leah or have other questions about Tupperware, please contact her, HERE. There are lots of other incentives when you host a party like hostess credit and half-price items so don’t hesitate to contact her.

I think that you will enjoy the Tupperware Microwave Breakfast Maker Set as much as I do and get a lot of use out of it! It really is a great item to have in your kitchen and will save you so much time!
