I am so excited to welcome Man Approved Diet as my first blog to have a sponsored post. Are you interested in seeing your recipe, craft, or anything about you on Nanny To Mommy? Please visit my Sponsorship tab today. :)
------------------
The Man behind the Man Approved Diet is my husband. He tastes every recipe on my blog, and a lot of them that don’t make it to the blog. Luckily he’s usually pretty easy to cook for. His only requirement is that I use cheese, bacon, ranch, or jalapenos in as many recipes as possible. Well, and that I always have some sort of back up meal in the freezer…
One of his favorite recipes is Bacon and Cheese Stuffed Meatloaf. Normally he doesn’t like meatloaf, but just add some bacon and cheese to it and it becomes one of his most requested recipes.
Ingredients
3 minced cloves garlic
1/2 cup chopped onions
6 slices center cut bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
2 tablespoons dry rub
3 diced plum tomatoes
1 pound ground turkey
2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Combine the diced tomatoes, garlic, breadcrumbs, ground turkey and barbecue dry rub in a large bowl.
In a saute pan, cook the bacon and onions until the bacon is crispy. Drain well on paper towels.
Line a bread pan with foil. Put half of the meat mixture in the bottom of the pan, creating a depression running down the center of the loaf. Fill the depression with the bacon mixture and half of the cheese. Cover with the remaining meat mixture, ensuring that the bacon and cheese are sealed in.
Bake covered for 30 minutes. Top with the remaining barbecue sauce and cheese, bake for another five minutes or until the cheese is melted.
To make it in the microwave instead of the oven, form the meatloaf in a microwave safe container. Cover it and microwave it for 18 - 20 minutes. Top with the barbecue sauce and cheese, cover and microwave for another 3 - 5 minutes.

I have never been a huge Valentine's Day person. I am in the belief that you should show love all year long BUT I love giving personalized cards now that I have a cute little face to put in all the frames. And my grandmother loves getting cards from us every holiday or any other chance we get. Shutterfly has many opportunities to share the love with their Valentine's Day cards, with 50 different styles and most with the ability to personalize with pictures, I know I will find something for everyone in my family.
They have amazing products that can be personalized and what I love are the coupon codes! I have know I have posted in the past on my Facebook Page the amazing deals I have scored using their codes.
4x5 cards. These are small cards that are great for giving out to co-workers and the little ones to give out at school. They are wonderfully different designs and even personalized ones.
The other award (and I have personally bought one of these in past for my husband) is a 5.5x5.5 Desktop Plaque. These are so cute. And very high quality. I absolutely love the one I bought for my husband for Father's Day last year.

My new sponsor has a GREAT gift idea for Valentine's Day. Datevitation is a Date Coupon Booklet that you can give to your spouse, friend, or other loved one. And they have TONS of cute dates that you can personalize.
Why did I pick this one?
Because Hubby and I use to go to the movies all the time before Sweet Pea. It's classic and we never get to go anymore. With this, I personalized saying that I would find our sitter, since I always make find one. :)
He loves sleeping in, but I always make him get up to spend time with us, so this one was kind of a no-brainer.
I hate Mexican and he loves it. Every time we go out he wants to go there. I have to be in the mood...to be nice and let him go. It's not that I hate it, if it were just margaritas we could go there all the time. ;) It just isn't worth the stomach pain and stench that comes along with it to me. But I love him so we can go one time. :)
This is Hubby's chore. So I will do it for him this time. :D
Hubby's FAVORITE vacation spot but the reason I put this here is because we can't afford Vegas even in the far off future but I wanted you to see how much variety were in these dates.
And what I loved the best was the option to pick 'private' date pages just for your significant other. :D
Plus the whole process was personalized and easy-peasy! I just picked the pictures or actions I wanted and customized the pre-written wording to include some of our little jokes. I cannot wait for it to come in so I can give it to him!
And because the people at Datevitation are so kind (and you know I love a good deal), they have offered to let y'all try it for yourselves! Books normally start at just $20, but as a special treat for my followers, you can use the code 'NANNYMOMMY' for $10 off your purchase so it makes for a thoughtful yet economical gift. So a custom, cute Valentine's Day gift for just $10!
And as if that wasn't enough, you can also enter for a chance to create your very own Datevitation 5 page custom book for free! Just enter in the rafflecopter below!
