Maybe because my husband made it and maybe because it involves grilling, I think this meal is a perfect choice for Father’s Day. These grilled lamb kebabs wrapped in warm pita and drizzled with creamy, garlic yogurt sauce are worthy of all the main men in your life.
Simply dip your favorite coffee bean into the melted chocolate of your choice for the perfect afternoon pick-me-up.
When thinking about {Puro Fairtrade} Coffee, one of the first things that came to mind was coffee cake, and specifically, Herman Cake. This cinnamon-swirled {friendship} cake is ultimately topped with a buttery caramel sauce and can easily pass as a dessert.
Almond poppy seed crêpes layered with almond whipped cream and raspberry freezer jam make a sweet cake worthy of a fancy breakfast or any other special occasion.
Churros con chocolate in cookie form are a fun addition to a party spread. Plus, Cinco de Mayo is tomorrow and if you can’t find real churros, these buttery, cinnamon-sugar cookies with or without chocolate are a festive way to celebrate.
For round two of the Ragú “New Tra-Dish” project, I have transformed eggplant parmesan into a low-carb, vegetarian lasagna. This eggplant parmesan lasagna may be hands down my favorite way to eat eggplant and I can honestly say that I do not miss the noodles.
I have had the opportunity to partner with Ragú to cook up some Italian dishes. As part of the “New Tra-Dish” project I was asked to select two of the Ragú Authentic Italian Recipes and create my own spin on them. First up, enjoy skillet chicken cacciatore as a hearty, comforting Italian chicken & vegetable soup.
Chocolate and hearts, a quintessential Valentine’s Day treat. With the big day quickly approaching I wanted to make a special breakfast. Chocolate waffles topped with homemade whipped cream and strawberry hearts did the trick.
I’m watching the snow continue to fall as we gear up for another fun day of skiing, sledding and tromping around the neighborhood. But first, we are savoring our morning waffles. Though it’s technically not a holiday, it sure does feel like a mini vacation around here.
As a kid it always seemed a bit crazy yet exciting and invigorating to get up so early on December 13, one of the shortest, darkest days of the year, just for breakfast. In fact, it always seemed dreamy and surreal. As a child my family celebrated Santa Lucia with some good family friends every year.
