Shirley J Review and Giveaway


A few weeks ago Shirley J sent me some of their new Universal Dessert Creme to try out along with the Universal Biscuit & Baking Mix.

The Universal Dessert Creme is an easy, just add water creme sauce. It's sweet and creamy on it's own but you can change the flavor by adding chocolate, vanilla, lime, etc. It can be used as a filling for pies, cake, pastries and much more. It's easy to make and can be adapt to work with most recipes.



I decided to try out the Shirley J 4-layer dessert from their cook book.
I couldn't believe how easy it was to make! Even the crust I whipped up in a few short minutes.

The crust is made by combing the Universal Biscuit & Baking Mix with butter and pressing into a pan. It doesn't get much easier than that.  I love that this mix can make anything from biscuits to pastries.

Shirley J Honey Wheat Bread


A few weeks ago I got to try out the Shirley J Honey Wheat Bread Mix.
I haven't ever been big on making bread from scratch. too much work for me.
I was thrilled to find out all I needed to make this yummy bread was water and yeast.
Simple as that.


It was so simple to make and I loved the soft texture and the sweet honey taste.
It would be perfect paired with a bowl of warm soup.

Shirley J Universal Cookie Mix

I am a big fan of Shirley J products and the latest one I tried did not disappoint! Shirley J Universal Cookie Mix is a new favorite of mine, it's a just add water cookie mix.
I know what you're thinking, just add water? Well believe me they are dang good.

The Universal Cookie Mix makes it easy to quickly whip up your favorite kind of cookie.
Grab what ever kind of bag of chocolates, cinnamon chips, nuts, M&M's you have on hand and mix into the dough. It's that simple.

I made mine with mini cinnamon chips, my favorite. With in minutes I was eating warm cinnamon chip cookies. I even had one or two for breakfast the next morning.

I didn't cook mine as long as the package suggested.
I always like to cut cookie baking time down a minute or two to make sure they are super soft.

Shirley J Review and Giveaway

Last week Shirley J sent me some of their Onion Seasoning, Pizza & Pasta Seasoning Mix and BBQ Sauce Mix from their gourmet line to try.

I have enjoyed using the Shirley J Universal Sauce, I love how easy and convenient it makes cooking so I was excited to try more Shirley J products.


The first thing I made was a Root Beer BBQ Sauce. Now I usually don't care for sauce while eating my meat. I prefer things on the plain side, with that said I loved the root beer BBQ sauce! I couldn't get enough. I even gave some to Brody and he loved it, he wanted to eat it with a spoon.
It takes five minutes to make and the only ingredients you need are Shirley J's BBQ Sauce Mix and root beer.
I love that I don't have to worry about shelf life, it will last over 30 years in the pantry and it's so easy I can whip up fresh BBQ sauce in five minutes.

We are big meat eaters in my family and love our steak (my husband is a butcher), So I wanted to try out the steak butter made from Shirley J Pizza & Pasta Seasoning Mix. It was very fast and easy to make. It was a delicious compliment to our steaks.
The Pizza & Pasta Seasoning Mix has a great flavor that is very versatile. Not only does it make a yummy pasta sauce it tastes great as a rub or a seasoning for vegetables.

The Shirley J Onion Season is the perfect seasoning to have on hand. Add it to your Au Jus, pot roast, soup or make onion dip. This week I am going to make some Onion Tartlets.

The more Shirley J products I try, the more I love them! They are all so versatile, convenient and taste great!

Next on my list to try Shirley J Hawaiian BBQ Meatballs


You can buy Shirley J products on the Shirley J website, through an Executive Chef or in their store.

Shirley J Review and Giveaway




A few weeks ago Shirley J sent me some of their Universal Sauce to try out. I had heard lots of good things about this cream based sauce and couldn't wait to try it!

My sister, Julie and I decided to experiment with a few recipes. We made Gnocchi Gratin, Alfredo Chicken Pizza and Creamy Baked Potato Soup. I couldn't believe how easy the sauce made the cooking.



Universal Sauce is a cream based sauce that serves as the foundation to countless recipes. All you have to do is add water. It was super easy to make and was completely lump free. We didn't have to worry about having flour, butter, milk, etc. on hand.

I wanted to learn more about the Universal Sauce so I took one of the free cooking classes at the Shirley J head quarters. It was such a great class and the chef was very fun and knowledgeable! He cooked chicken enchiladas, tomato soup and macaroni and cheese from the Universal Sauce in less than 45 minutes. They were all delicious.

I think the Universal Sauce will become a staple in my pantry and food storage. It's so easy to use and it's 1/4 the calories as a regular cream sauce. It also has a shelf life of 20+ years.

I can't wait to try out their other products!
