This ranch dressing is better than store-bought versions and doesn't contain MSG (which I recently discovered is in many commercially-produced varieties). I also love the fact that it is made using light sour cream instead of mayo.
With St. Patrick's Day still on my mind, I decided to make Irish Soda Bread. Irish Soda Bread is considered a quick bread because there is no yeast and therefore it doesn't need time to rise. Simply mix the ingredients together and bake it in a greased pan. The result is a large mounded loaf of bread with a golden, crusty exterior and a dense, scone-like interior.
Adding sweet potato or pumpkin purée to your buttermilk pancakes is a great way to sneak veggies and vitamins into your family's breakfast. You can make the pancakes any time of year but they are especially comforting during the autumn and winter months.
These basic buttermilk pancakes are a cinch to make. You can mix the dry ingredients the night before so that they come together quickly on school mornings and busy weekends.
The combination of peanut butter, bananas and maple syrup is one of my favorites. You can either add mashed bananas and peanut butter to the pancake batter or slather the hotcakes with peanut butter and sliced bananas, or both.
