Who’s ready for summertime fun? BBQ’s and getting together with friends and family?

Summertime is perfect for bonding and fun over a great meal (and great dessert!).

In fact, as I write this, my family is preparing to go to a friend’s house tonight for a potluck! And I will be bringing the DREYER’S!

DREYER’S Butterfinger Peanut Butter Cup and BabyRuth Ice Creams are a perfect sweet treat! I love how with their delicious mix-ins you don’t need anything else. Just scoop up the candy inspired ice cream and enjoy.

DREYER’S has no artificial colors or flavors and is made with fresh milk and cream with no rBST (a milk production hormone). Awesome!

Simply swing by your local Walmart and pick up your package of DREYER’S Butterfinger Peanut Butter Cup (seriously, how could you resist?).

As well as the DREYER’S, I will be bringing my Cauliflower Rice Greek Salad. This salad is low carb, healthy and a great addition to any summer get-together.

If you haven’t tried Cauliflower Rice, you really should. You can either make it yourself by chopping up a head in your food processor. I grab mine in the frozen section of my grocery store.

Even my girls love Cauliflower Rice. Generally, I use it as a warm dish but I decided to try it out for Greek Salad, and it worked great!

Let me know if you give it a try.
