“The days are long, but the years are short.” ― Gretchen Rubin
Wow, no truer words were ever spoken. Especially for me this summer. I mean, I think every summer goes fast, but this is my first summer that has been bookended by school years in a very long time. Add to that the blur that is life with an infant, unpacking/repacking/unpacking/repacking/unpacking/repacking/unpacking to go to my mom’s, Minnesota, my mom’s and, well, umm, my mom’s, four weeks of camp for The Bug (which meant dropping him off and then turning around to pick him up three hours later), The Hubby getting Lyme, and suddenly I have a 5 1/2 month old, and I am trying to squeeze in haircuts, doctor appointments, new shoes, and back-to-school shopping.
Craziness!
But some days felt like an eternity. Awake at midnight, 3 am, 5 am, then not falling back to sleep before The Bug wakes up at 7:30. Feed the baby, feed me, feed The Bug, baby down for nap, deal with tantrums. Oh wait, baby still won’t sleep, epic 3 year old tantrum, make lunch. EXCEPT, oh crap breakfast dishes are still in the sink, they can wait till after lunch, but gotta feed the baby again.
Pick up Bug from camp, wrestle him out of the back of the van into the car seat, take Bug up for nap and read books. Bug’s not napping, oh well, leave him there till I feed baby AGAIN, get baby down for nap, get Bug up, start playing, WAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!
“No Mommy, he needs to sleep more!”
Why yes, yes he does, but not much I can do about that. Oh crap, the dishes are still there, clean up the disaster in the kitchen, feeding again, baths, make dinner, eat dinner, clean up. ANOTHER baby feeding, tell Hubby to bring The Bug up to bed because I.NEED.TO.CRASH!!!
Now give me some of these Greek yogurt cheesecake dips, because I am gonna blink again and it’ll be Christmas.
So when you are running around like crazy, and need a quick and easy dessert to bring to a Labor Day barbecue (or just for a fun treat at lunch time with your kid), I’ve got you covered. Just four ingredients (plus whatever you want to dip) and about ten minutes to make all three of these Greek yogurt cheesecake dips! By using whipped cream cheese, you really don’t even have to let it come to room temperature. If you only want to make one of the flavors, it’s just two ingredients, five minutes, and just dip a spoon – EASY PEASY!!
Plus, you know, Greek yogurt = healthy = eat the entire bowl. Heck, eat all three bowls – it’s the end of bikini season.

Thanks for stopping by!
Such a clever idea! I love cheesecake and these look delicious. I’ll take one of each!
Thanks, and so simple too!
hahah.. all over all 3 of these bowls. What a quick and easy dessert option, love it! And yes, greek yogurt = healthy= eat entire bowl! Thanks for sharing at Show Stopper Saturdays!
Krista @ Joyful Healthy Eats
Thanks!
Sounds yummy, being a Cheescake lover I know for sure that these should taste delicious… We have done similar things but never really called them cheescake but I know the feeling and for sure the taste. They look great and tasty.
I love cheesecake flavor but not traditional cheesecake, so I guess I call anything “cheesecake” if it has that flavor.
What a fabulous idea!!! These dips look great! And I love the idea of using Greek yogurt, that sounds REALLY good!
Thanks Maria! It is so yummy!
I love pretty much cheesecake anything, so this works for me! The ‘yogurt factor’ makes it healthier, so less guilt, and that makes me happy
“Healthy” cheesecake is never a bad thing!
This looks like a great idea for serving at parties and it sounds really yummy!
Thanks Tracy! And you can make any flavor you like!
Love this idea! Adding it to our greek yogurt love pin board! http://pinterest.com/cleanleanmommy/greek-yogurt-love/

Thanks! I have a Greek yogurt board too! 🙂
Brianne, I totally need to try these cheesecake dips! They would be perfect for healthy snacking while watching football. Thank you so much for linking up to Wake up Wednesdays! I’ll be sharing this on FB, Twitter & Pinterest!
Thanks Meghan. Gotta balance the heavier foods with a nice, light treat, right ?! 🙂
I love that quote–the days are long but the years are short. It really helps me keep the right perspective while the kids are young. I know I’m going to miss these days!
This recipe looks awesome! Pinnning it now and hoping to try out soon.
I’m stopping by from Whimsy Wednesday (#36 DIY Birth Announcements and 38 Bowl Licking Good Guacamole) Have a great week!
Thanks for stopping by. That quote is a favorite of mine too.
I love this idea and all of these flavors!! And did you say “pie crust sticks”? Yep, I would definitely eat the whole bowl(s)!!
Didn’t get to post pie crust sticks yet, but I will. Not really anything more than exactly what they sound like.
Yup, just give me a huge bowl of fruit and this dip and I’ll just skip lunch. 🙂
Sounds like a plan!
Oh, boy, do I remember those days! I can’t believe you have time to cook, blog and take photos….you go, girl!!
It’s hard, but it is my “me-time”!
What a fantastic idea, Brianne! It’s a cheesecake lover’s dream come true. You can try out different flavors with various cookies, crackers and fruits. Bravo for the recipes =)
Bravo, too, for all the caring work it takes to be a good mommy…I do hope you have a labor-free, restful weekend. (We can all pray for miracles, right?)
I know, I love that it is so versatile. Thanks, it has been a busy but nice weekend.
What a fun snack… dessert… breakfast! 🙂 Love the combination of flavors!!!
Hmmm, the leftovers might just be breakfast tomorrow…
First of all, your routine exhausts me just to read about it! It’s been a few years since I had 2 littles, and so it sort of raised the hairs on the back of my neck to remember how tiring it all was. Second, how clever of you to make 3 flavors using one base. Enjoy your weekend!
It’s exhausting, but at least it burns the dessert calories 🙂
“And now I am gonna blink again and it’ll be Christmas” = so true for me too. I still can’t get over that it is September. Seriously crazy how time flies. And I think chowing on these cheesecake dips is a great thing to do while pondering how quickly the days pass.
Thanks Renee! Time does go sooo fast. Especially as bloggers since we are thinking ahead.
Oh man, you say cheesecake and I am THERE!
Haha, I love anything cheesecake-flavored, but I am not a huge fan of actual cheesecake 🙂
Your daily gring is hilarious to read, though you probably wouldn’t agree…lol! Easy appetizers are always welcome!
In retrospect it is amusing, now that the baby usually sleeps a little better.
Thank you for participating this week! Sounds like you’ve had a busy summer!
Thanks for hosting!
