Adrian got this recipe from his Lithuanian friends while he was at Cedarville. This is a comforting soup and reheats very well. Eat on its own or with a side of brown/sourdough bread and butter.
Lithuanian Fish Soup
Peanut Brittle with Pretzels
Every year we try to learn a new candy recipe. This is our recipe for this year!
Chocolate Covered Macadamia Nuts
Momma and Daddy used to get a tin of these during Christmas. They are extremely easy and remind me of Christmas past.
Do not use “cheap” chocolate. Be sure to use your favorite! If you prefer a higher chocolate ratio, use equal parts nuts and chocolate.
Ferrero Rocher, Homemade
We made homemade hazelnut butter spread and reduced the sugar. Megan suggested replacing the wafer cookies with rice crispies to see if they stayed crunchier.
Breakfast Sausage
We wanted to find a good recipe for breakfast sausage that did not contain sugar. This one is simple and freezes very well.
The optional ingredients will change this from a mild recipe to a spicy one.
Chocolate Chip Cookies with Hidden Peanut Butter
Sugar Coated Cranberries
A recipe from Oma. After the first “pop” we were hooked!
“Spicy Texas Trash” Chex Mix
Oma made this mix from a recipe that Aunt Judy gave her. The recipe makes a lot, so cut in half if needed.
Box sizes are approximate, adjust as needed.
Fig Salad with Spinach, Pecans and Pomegranate
Andrea made this recipe for a dinner her class hosted. I liked it so much, I keep asking for the recipe.
This makes a lot of salad dressing, so make it ahead and just use as needed.
Rye Bagel Chips
Instead of buying our normal bagel chips, we attempted to make our own. We made our simple bagel recipe replacing the whole wheat flour with rye flour. We should have added some molasses for color. Then we cut the cooked bagels into thin slices and dehydrated. Easy! The hard part is keeping the kids away from snacking on them.
