Tired of the same old Christmas baking? These easy Chocolate Covered Rice Krispie Treats will shake up your usual holiday baking. The recipe comes together in minutes and is sure to impress. Your only problem will be keeping enough on hand for friends and family.
Do you have any special traditions on your birthday? For my Mom, she likes poppyseed cake with caramel icing. Her Mom used to make it for her every year, until one year she decided for some crazy reason that peanut butter icing would be much better.
My Mom can’t stand peanut butter.
Needless to say, my Mom didn’t get her special cake for years afterward.
Around 10 years ago, I asked my Mom what her favourite cake was and she told me about the poppyseed cake with caramel frosting. At first I thought it sounded kind of weird, but once I tasted it, I understood why it was her favourite.
Is there anything more exciting than Christmas morning? I don’t think so. What isn’t exciting is slaving over a breakfast that keeps you in the kitchen and away from all the fun. But who wants the same old on such a special day?
Enter my family’s version of baked eggs. It’s an easy and filling breakfast that assembles in minutes and requires little effort on your part.
Set them out with some bacon, toast, and a tray of fruit, and you have a delicious morning meal that gives you more time with your family.
Have you ever looked at those beautiful images of charcuterie boards on Pinterest or Instagram and wished that somehow you could put one together? But you felt so overwhelmed. How do I pick the meats? What about the cheeses? How do I make it look pretty? What about keeping costs down?
You’re in luck.
I’ve assembled an easy guide to make your perfect charcuterie board, including some options for my friends who don’t eat pork.
Don’t be intimidated. If you’ve made a meat and cheese sandwich or set out a plate of cheese and crackers, you can do this.
P.S.- It’s pronounced char-koot-air-ree. You’re welcome. 😉
