Jamba Juice’s Pumpkin Smash Smoothie to Make at Home by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

Jamba Juice’s fantastic seasonal creation blends a pumpkin spice base with frozen yogurt and soy milk. It’s like drinking pumpkin pie through a straw!

Killer Hogs BBQ Sauce Recipe by Malcom Reed

Perfectly simple BBQ sauce recipe we use in competition BBQ contests. You don't need a complex list of ingredients to have a great sauce... you just need the right ingredients that focus on complimenting the flavor of the meat instead of covering it up.

Cajun Bread Pudding with Praline Sauce by Amos Miller

I am surprised more folks haven't tried this. I have been asked for this recipe more times than I can remember. I have served the following dish to more than 300 diners (at a time) and got a substantial number of raves, so I want to pass it on for anyone who wants something a little more like home, more New Orleans, more than a Red…

Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake by Dominick Costa

Summer is hands down my favorite time of year, especially being born and raised on the East Coast. I hate cold weather and snow and for me, fall and winter are just gloomy and depressing times of the year. On the other hand, I am very thankful for Pumpkin Season! I have already featured quite a few pumpkin recipes, but there sure…
