Orange Creamsicle Dessert

When Simply Orange Juice recently contacted me with the offer to send me product coupons for free samples, I first made an Orange Julius. My thoughts then turned to orange creamsicles and the idea of turning this orange-coated vanilla popsicle into a layered ice cream dessert.

Green Eggs and Ham

I made green eggs and ham again to celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday which is tomorrow {March 2}. This time I used spinach juice instead of green food coloring to make the green eggs. The natural dye of the spinach turned the eggs a beautiful green and you won’t even taste the spinach.

I typically make an assortment of flavors when I make ebleskiver but these Nutella-filled pancakes are so yummy that they deserve their own post. They are also a delicious way to celebrate World Nutella Day.

Ebleskiver

Ebleskiver are similar to the American version of pancakes except that they seem to be lighter and fluffier due to the egg whites being beaten into stiff peaks. I like to make an assortment of flavors when I make ebleskiver, leaving some plain and filling the others with a variety of ingredients.

Bran Muffin Hearts

Happy Valentine’s Day! For a quick, fiber-filled Valentine’s Day breakfast I made bran muffin hearts with my Mini Heart Baking Pan. If you don’t have heart pans you can bake part of the muffin batter in a 9×13 pan and cut out hearts with a cookie cutter.

Love Apples

Love Apples, otherwise known as tomatoes, were once believed to have aphrodisiac powers and were called pommes d’amour in French (literally, apples of love). It is a fitting name for a rich and creamy Valentine’s Day side dish.
