Almond cookie bites are a delicious treat that will be perfect for Valentine’s Day!  They’re easy to make and so yummy that they’re almost addictive!  The tiny bite-size goodies are one of my family’s favorite desserts.  The recipe makes a bunch so you can serve some and keep some in the freezer too.  I love desserts that freeze well so I can keep them on hand for impromptu get togethers or anytime you need a sweet snack.   With Happy Hearts Day approaching fast, I thought they’d be a delightful to serve or give!  I’m sharing the easy recipe today and I hope you love them as much as I do! Let’s celebrate Valentines with the yummiest little bites!

Brie and Berries for 4th of July!

June 28
No comments yet

Brie and berries is such a great combination!  Bake the cheese until it’s bubbly hot and serve it with berries in balsamic glaze and you have an appetizer that your guests can’t stop eating!  It’s perfect for 4th of July celebrations because the gooey fruit is in patriotic colors!  I’m sharing the super easy and delicious recipe but also a whimsical way to serve it for the holiday that’s not all star-spangled and red, white and blue.  I love traditional holiday color but sometimes it’s nice to change it up a bit!  You can still create a festive spread but put a new twist on it depending on what you have on hand!  The Fourth of July is just around the corner so celebrate easy with a whimsical snack table!

Chive Blossom Vinegar

Chive blossom vinegar is as pretty as it is tasty!  If you have chives in your garden, you can make this condiment to use for salads or summer recipes.  It would make a lovely gift too!  Other herbs will work well, so don’t fret if you don’t have the blossoms on hand.  I’ll share some other options in the post…the basic tutorial is the same.  What I love about this particular infused vinegar is the gorgeous pale color and mild onion flavor!  So lovely for using in light salad dressings and it will look pretty on the table too!  Lets add flavor from the garden…

Sausage Plait Tutorial

October 25
14 Comments

Have you heard of a sausage plait? I had never heard of one prior to a friend introducing me to this beautiful AND easy meal!  Honestly I didn’t even make the connection that “plait” means braid (I guess being a boy mom limited my braid-related vocabulary).  But that’s exactly what this meal is, a braided pastry filled with a delicious sausage and apple mixture!  It’s so simple to create yet I promise the results will make you look like an expert in the kitchen.  When you pull this baby from the oven it will appear like you slaved away baking this showstopper!  This lovely meal resembles a mummy of pastry dough which also makes it a perfect entree to serve at a haunted dinner party.  I promised I’d share the main event from my spooky soiree…and here is the simple tutorial for creating it!
