Lifestyle: Everything is Peach-y!

by / Monday, 08 April 2013 / Published in INSPIRATION STATION, Lifestyle

Thanks for stopping by Lifestyle Monday.  We cover a broad range of topics that just may enhance your life in some small way.  

I just made a Peach Surprise.  It’s a recipe I got from a friend a few years ago.   I remember waking up to the smell of this wafting in the air, during a girlfriends retreat at the beach.  

It is soooo yummy, I wanted to share it with you.  The bonus, is that it’s relatively healthy and super easy to make.

You only need 6 ingredients

Here’s the recipe:

  • 1  large can of peach halves
  • 1/2 cup of butter
  • 1/2 cup of brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup of oats
  • 1/2 cup of granola
  • 1/2 cup of pecans

1. open and drain your can of peach halves and place them upright in a baking dish. 

1. Mix the remaining 5 ingredients together in a bowl.  To soften the butter, zap the mixture in the microwave for a quick 5-6 seconds so it’s easier to stir.3. Once mixed, top each peach with a rounded Tablespoon of the mixture4. Continue until all have been topped5. Place the dish under the broiler until the top becomes crisp (this doesn’t take long so be sure to watch it)

6. Once done, serve it up with your favorite ice cream

Side Notes:

  • Serve this with vanilla yogurt for a healthier alternative (great for brunch)
  • Replace canned peaches with fresh ones, when they’re in season…your taste buds will thank you!

As for decorating…  

How you feel about peach in your home?

Soft pastel peach can add softness, feminity and vibrance all at the same time.

Is there a space in your home, that could use a little peach-y-ness?  How about a  ghost chair for your home office, or a chest of drawers?  A table lamp might be the perfect punch of color for your teenagers room.
