Here’s what I made from the July Paint Bucket

Street Corn Nachos turned into Chili Lime Corn & Queso Nachos {psst, you need to make this}

Blueberry Cornbread from Southern Bite, turned into Buttery Blueberry Cornbread {psst, you need to try this too}

Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower from Bon Appetit is a healthy, easy peasy, tasty side dish

Homemade Tater Tots turned into Tater Crabs

Pulled Pork Torta from Cooking in Stilletos turned into BBQ Pork & Corn Torta

Raspberry Whipped Sensation Pie turned into Inside Out Berry Pie
