Here are some scrumptious features from last week...
Okay all you cookie lovers, this is for you... IRISH BUTTER SHORTBREADS from STEAKNPOTATOESKINDAGURL. Just give me a cup of Irish breakfast tea with lots of cream and a jar of these cookie... heaven!!!
If you have not had ANISH PICKLED EGGS then you haven't had the best!!! Honestly, I live in the heart of Amish country and the pickled eggs here are famous!!! Thanks, Lynn from HAPPIER THAN A PIG IN MUD for bringing the best to OTMM!
Here are 50 + SAVORY MUFFIN RECIPES from our British friend at MUM'S MAKE LISTS. I adore what I call "formula recipes". This one is a winner!
EARLY SPRING CITRUS BARS from GREEN EGGS AND SPAN is a sweet treat I can't wait to make. Oh, YUMMY!
CRISPY GNOCCHI WITH PISTACHIO PESTO... really...? Now this is a recipe that would make me fall off the lo-carb bandwagon in a real hurry. Culinary perfection!!!!! I could gain 5 pounds just by thinking how much of this I could eat!!!! Thanks... I guess, HALF BAKED HARVEST!
You also need to check out Funfetti Sandwich cookies and 30 Minute Mini Muffins from HALF BAKED HARVEST last week!
I know so many of us love soup!!! THE SOUP DOCTOR'S EGG DROP SOUP from ON THE HOME FRONT is a keeper. Easy to make, this is a great pantry meal!
JAZZY GOURMET COOKING STUDIO shared these sweet and oh so fun BLUEBERRY ALMOND DELIGHT BITES. How cute are these!!!!
This week's Menu Plan comes from ONE MAMA'S DAILY DRAMA. I'd like to invite myself to dinner Thursday, please! YUM!
.
This week I'm sharing HOMEMADE PUFF PASTRY CUPS. These are impressive and so so easy to make!!!! I made them for a recent Bridal Shower and there seemed to be a hit!
Look for an upcoming post about the Herbed Chicken Salad in April.

ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting, Yvonne, always fabulous features and your recipes make me so hungry. xo
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for hosting, Yvonne! Your Easter menu sounds delicious! At my mom's house we always had to have certain things at holidays, but I'm finding that my crew just doesn't seem to care...as long as they like what I make. Maybe that will change as they grow a little older. Anyway, I hope you and your family have a wonderful Easter!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Nici
Thanks for hosting. I am praying we DO NOT get snow, I am scheduled to have 4 girlfriends for dinner tomorrow!!! My table is set and toda bought all the groceries. Have a good week, I am LONGING for Spring too!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XOXO
ReplyDeleteI had to chuckle when I saw your hamburgers on the grill, I've been craving one too! Thanks for the shout-out Yvonne and I'm hoping this is the last of the snow too:@)
ReplyDeleteHope you get some good weather soon, Yvonne! I remember chilly Easters when we lived in PA, OH and MI. Your menu and the features are wonderful. Thanks for hosting.
ReplyDeleteHi Yvonne...thank you so much for hosting. Super features and I just can't believe one of them is beet juice pickled eggs!I was just thinking about them the other day and that I haven't seen them in years...then poof here they are! You live in beautiful country...I don't know if I told you that I went to college at Millersville some 30 years ago...always loved the area.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful week!
XO Barbara
Hi Yvonne,
ReplyDeleteOur family is so steeped in tradition, sometimes I try slipping something new in the menu or replacing something and someone will always say, where is it, I just love that dish. We are having a very cold weekend but a burger on the grill sounds awesome.
I really enjoyed your Scripture post today, thank you. Have a blessed Easter with your family and thank you so much for hosting!

Oooh, those pastry puff cups look scrumptious! My daughter is having a bridal shower soon and these look like something I'd love to make! Thanks for hosting this delightful link-up. Each week there are so many wonderful posts!!
ReplyDeleteI am seriously drooling on my computer right now looking at your weekly menu!! This is my first time linking up and I'm so excited to check out some of the yummy stuff on here! Thank you so much for hosting!!!
ReplyDeleteBest,
Jen @ Yummy. Healthy. Easy.
Am partying over breakfast - making me very hungry for something more than porridge :-(
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for featuring the muffins - Alice @ Mums Make Lists xxx
good Morning Yvonne: Your menu for the week looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteWhen you try to bring up the fondue recipe you get the Chicken Soup
recipe.
I found one recipe for fondue that you posted for a tree trimming party.
Is this the same recipe?
Thanks again for posting a wonderful weeks worth of recipes.

I think everyone is ready for spring, including us down south where it's been a little chilly. Thanks for hosting as always. I brought a man-pleasing blue cheese stuffed burger with a port & caper sauce. Low carb too.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week.

Hi Yvonne,
ReplyDeleteI am sharing an Italian Rice Easter Pie and info about a very important event: Food Bloggers Against Hunger. Please help spread the word. Thanks.
That's so funny about your Easter menu, my family is just the opposite! If I did the same menu I would hear lots of complaints, they expect new and different for every occasion! Keeps me hopping for sure! Your menu does sound divine and something for all tastes. Have a great week and a very Happy Easter! {It's freezing and yucky in the South too}
ReplyDeleteJenna
Thanks for hosting. I'm looking forward to browsing the links for some new recipe ideas.
ReplyDeleteHi Yvonne. I just wanted to let you know that I will be introducing you to my friends over at my blog tomorrow (Tuesday) at our 3rd Girl Time get together. I know they will love you and your blog just as much as I do.
ReplyDeleteWould love for you to stop by tomorrow and check it out.
Thanks and God bless, Amy
