April Giveaway! Happy Mothers Day to all the Divas!

As you may have figured out by now, we here at Swanky Aprons are all about helping women find their inner domestic diva, whether they can bake bread from scratch, or just order a pizza and look pretty. That philosophy is especially true when it comes to moms. If you have little satellites orbiting you all day, sometimes it is all you can do to squeeze in a shower, let alone look glamorous.  We think aprons are an easy way to feel more beautiful and confident, and we want to share that with a special mom.

In honor of the one person who loves you the most, we’re giving away a set of mama/daughter diva aprons. The grown up Domestic Diva Apron, and the Diva in Training apron. Both will come gift wrapped and shipped in time for Mother’s Day.

Day 4 of Recipes and Aprons: Everything Tastes Better with Bacon

This dip is always one of the biggest hits at parties, and no one believes how easy it is to prepare!  And, it’s made with bacon.  Do you really need to know anything else? 🙂

The Recipe: Bacon Cheese Dip

  • 2 cups mayo
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 bunch green onions (finely chopped)
  • 1 lb. bacon (fried and crumbled) If you’re in a hurry, you can substitute 1 cup bacon bits
  • 2 packages of cream cheese
  • 1 box of club crackers

Combine the cream cheese and mayo, and mix until smooth.  Add cheese, green onions and bacon (reserving some of each for the topping).  Spread into microwave safe baking dish.  Sprinkle remaining cheese, green onions and bacon on top.  Microwave on high 2 to 3 minutes before serving.

The Apron:  Domestic Diva  

After your guests taste the Bacon Cheese dip, they’ll be in awe of your mad kitchen skills.  Help keep up the pretense with our Domestic Diva Apron.  🙂

Have a Happy Tuesday!
