Strawberries and Cream Cake
This cake is a great way to finish off your Memorial Day feast next weekend. This is a variation of other poke cakes on the blog. Like the others, this cake is easy to make and tastes great. It is best to make this cake at least a day before you want to serve it. It gets better the longer it sits in the refrigerator. It takes a lot of will power not to just dive into the cake, but trust me. It is worth the wait!

Cowboy Beans
No BBQ is complete without some baked beans. These baked beans are one of the best we've ever made. I made these beans to go with our BBQ Ranch Pulled Pork. They were dynamite! They were sweet, smoky and tangy all at once. This is a great dish for a crowd. You can make them ahead of time and reheat them or even make them in the crockpot. I used bacon in the beans, but, feel free to throw in some of the BBQ Ranch Pulled Pork. It would be a great way to use up any leftover pork. You could make a meal out of these beans loaded with pork.

BBQ Ranch Pulled Pork {Slow Cooker}
We don't have a fancy grill that we can control the temperature on, so I made this pork in the slow cooker. I thought it turned out great. I prepped the pork the night before and refrigerated it overnight. I threw the pork in the slow cooker first thing in the morning and it was ready by dinner. It was fall apart tender! The BBQ sauce is a must with this pork - it is my new favorite. This will definitely be on our Memorial Day menu - it should be on yours too!

BBQ Seasoning
Memorial Day is right around the corner. I am already testing out my menu. I decided to make my own BBQ Seasoning this year. I love to make my own seasonings because you can control the amount of salt and other ingredients. This is great sprinkled on chicken, pork or even burgers. It will keep for several months in an air-tight container. This BBQ seasoning is easy to make, and it makes a great hostess gift or takeaway gift for your guests at your Memorial Day BBQ.

DiGiorno Pizzeria Pizza Giveaway!

The folks at DiGiorno contacted me to see if I would be interested in trying their new Pizzeria! Pizza. Since pizza is my favorite food, I said "YES!" DiGirono sent me coupons for two free pizzas.
The Pizzeria! pizza comes in 4 varieties: Quattro Formaggi, Italian Style Meat Trio, Supreme Speciale, and Primo Pepperoni. I chose Quattro Formaggi and Italian Style Meat Trio.

First up was the Quattro Formaggi. It was actually really good. It only took 18 minutes in the oven and we had pizza for lunch. We loved all the different cheeses and the sauce was really good. This got 2 thumbs up! I will definitely buy this again. It was my favorite of the two we tried.

Next we tried the Italian Style Meat Trio pizza. We both really enjoyed this variety as well. I really like the genoa salami - you don't usually find that on a frozen pizza.

I love how quickly the pizza cooks up. It only took 20 minutes in the oven.


We both liked the crust. It was crispy and crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. It wasn't too thick and tasted really good. I would definitely recommend keeping one of these pizzas on hand for a quick lunch or dinner. It is as good, if not better, than most delivery pizza.
The Giveaway!
DiGiorno is giving 5 lucky Plain Chicken readers 2 certificates for free pizza!

The contest ends on Friday, May 17th @ 11:59PM. The winners will be contacted by email and have 48 hours to respond. If winners do not respond within 48 hours, an alternate winner will be chosen. Good Luck!
