Pierogi Lasagna I've been obsessed with potato based sauces the past few weeks, and even made a few that I didn't put up here. It all culminated with this amazing potato lasagna that tastes like a pierogi with every bite. Each layer of noodle gave way to a thick, creamy, cheesy cloud of potato deliciousness. Thanks to reader Chris for the Idea! To make your sauce, start by simmering potatoes in milk. Once the potatoes are cooked and mashed, toss in sour cream. Then the cheese goes in. Build up your lasagna with the sauce, noodles, and some caramelized onions and scallions. After it bakes, its browned and amazing looking. Thick, hearty, and delicious. Bacon obviously takes it to the next level.
Frozen Peach Bellini To me, a Bellini is the quintessential Italian cocktail. It’s refreshing, beautiful and oh so peachy! I’ve decided to do a twist on the classic with this recipe. A traditional Bellini is made using white peach puree, Prosecco and sometimes a dab of cherry juice to give it that glorious glow. This genius of a drink was first concocted by Giuseppe Cipriani, the founder of the infamous Harry’s Bar in Venezia {Venice}. So why didn’t he name the drink a Cipriani you ask ; ) Well I’ve read that it was because he was smitten with a painting done by Giovanni BELLINI & alas the name BELLINI ; ) Now you know! I love the classic but wanted to try a variation. I couldn’t locate any white peaches so I substituted. Make sure your puree is completely CHILLED as well as your Prosecco. Cheers! What You Will Need: What To Do: Place peaches, sugar into blender (food processor) and puree.

How to To Make Your Food Taste Awesome Posted by admin on Aug 19, 2012 in Food Preparation | 211 comments In case you are not skilled with the food recipes and preparation, listed bellow are some of the easy food tips to make your meals delicious easy way. No matter you prepare breakfast, dinner or just a snack, the easy food tips are here to make your food even more attractive and awesome. Idea by Janice Kamide Images Source BuzzFeed Skinny Mashed Potatoes Mashed potatoes are one of my favorite things to eat on Thanksgiving, but this year since I am pregnant and on a really strict low carb diet (for my diabetes) real mashed potatoes are out (bummer). I recently started researching alternatives to some of my favorite dishes because there is NO way my plate will be without a big ole pile of mash potatoes. I came across this recipe that uses cauliflower instead of potatoes. Hmmm not a big cauliflower fan so I wasn't sure. If there is a choice of either celery or cauliflower in a veggie dish 9 times out of 10 I will choose the celery. BUT I decided to give it a try since the reviews were outstanding. ***BEST MOCK mashed potatoes I have ever had! What you will need: 1 head of cauliflower 1 tablespoon of cream cheese1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese1/2 teaspoon of minced garlic1/2 teaspoon of salt5 or so dashes of pepperChives for garnish Directions:Wash and cut cauliflower into small pieces. These were seriously unbelievable!
