But bow your head in gratitude to the cauliflower.
Mashed Cauliflower
You know when someone becomes dependent on a drug… because normal life just doesn’t cut it anymore. (Not making light of the topic, just making an analogy here.) Well that’s what happened to me this summer with fruit. I started roasting peaches, strawberries and figs and raw fruit just didn’t hold a candle.

Peeta's Stuffed Cheese Buns
Sorry I keep making a bunch of Peeta food. You may recall the goat cheese and apple tart from when The Hunger Games came out in theaters. Don't hate, but I'm not actually on "team Peeta". I mean, don't get me wrong, Peeta's a cool person and everything, but Peeta and I are like... the same person. We're both bakers, we have a great sense of humor, we're really eloquent and good with words (HA), and neither of us would stand a chance on our own in the hunger games. You know, sometimes I wonder if he's actually my great-great-great grandson.We keep it pretty minimal when it comes to toys for our kids on Christmas but yet somehow I feel like there’s STUFF everywhere! Anyone else feel this way? We’re swimming in Legos over here and just when I think I’ve cleaned up the last of them, I’ll step on one or one of my boys will drop their ships and Lego pieces go flying everywhere. I think my husband spent 6 straight hours on Christmas helping them build Legos. Seven layer dip is one of my favorites. But after a few people have dipped (hopefully not double-dipped), it starts to look like mush.

I think some of the first words out of my son's mouth were "fruit snacks!" My son easily goes through a box of fruit snacks a week.... or more (don't worry, I brush his teeth religiously). He can't get enough of them!

Soft, scrumptious, and sourdough: pretzels from your “discard” starter.
What is it about feeding sourdough starter that makes so many of us nuts? Discarding that initial cup of perfectly good starter to get the process going, right? I mean, it just doesn’t feel right, throwing away this starter you’ve been feeding, and coddling, and nursing into maturity with regular meals and draft-free, comfortably warm counter-time. Why is it, anyway, that feeding sourdough requires you to discard a cup of perfectly good (albeit unfed) starter as part of the process? Well, most people say it’s “so your refrigerator won’t be overrun with starter.”www.loveumadly.com/2012/04/100-pure-love-for-100-real-fruit-snacks/
Baked Oven Fries
Oven fries may seem like a simple side dish that just about anyone could whip up with no problem. At least for me, this was not always true. I have made baked oven fries many times in the past and they were always okay, but they weren’t “Oh my gosh, I love love love them” good. A large part of this was due to the fact that they had a mushy texture.Because I can't resist turning classics into miniatures, here's another mini dessert idea! I made cherry, apple and blackberry pies. You can use store bought crust and pie fillings or make your own from scratch. These mini pies can be made in a standard or mini muffin pan. I made both and prefer the filling to crust ratio from the standard muffin pan.

Soft Pretzel Bites with Cheese Sauce
I am a complete sucker for mall pretzels. And it’s a darn good thing that you’ll only find me at the mall once or twice a year because more trips would like equal more pretzels. And as much as I love them, I’ve only made them once before , admittedly to great success but since Kyle isn’t a huge fan (crazy boy), I haven’t made them again. But in all the years since I first made them, there’s been one recipe I’ve been saving and I finally decided to bust it out just in time to share it with you while you’re all getting crazy planning your Super Bowl (or maybe anti-Super Bowl?)Roasted Garlic-Thyme Butter - Condiment / Sauce - Dishes - Recipes
