I have been making some version of this recipe for years, originally using canned creamed corn. Once I switched to fresh corn, I found the crunch that was needed for this creamy side dish. Pairing the corn with fresh basil from the garden is a classic summer combo.
My microwave is haunted. No, it really is. When I heat up anything, and then close the door after I've taken the food or coffee out of it, it starts up again, but only for a few seconds, like maybe six total, and then stops.
Somewhere down the line I picked up this habit of "loading" my drinks with fruit and herbs. I could probably link this on my mother for exposing me to sangria at such an early age. Or blame it on drinking the same boring glass of soda water for lunch for over a year that I was bound to start throwing extra things into it.
I believe that sipping iced tea is something very special. Its a simple life's pleasure that should be sipped slowly (ok, sometimes guzzled.) This Blueberry Ginger Iced Tea is certainly special & it would be as perfect sipped on a steamy summers day by the pool. Or served at a elegant gathering.
If you've been reading my blog for long enough, then you know I'm a big fan of using tea in desserts (see here, here and here). I've had a few tea bags of chai mix sitting in my kitchen and decided that a white chocolate ganache infused with all those spices and tea would taste amazing.
Hiya! Well this post took me a week. p.s. it's a long one Remember when we were in San Francisco last month? I happened to be browsing Buzzfeed and noticed an article about a San Francisco bakery having their recipe book stolen. They're big seller: cruffins. Cruffins?! You mean, a croissant muffin?
We are a huge fan of blueberry muffins at our house; usually a dozen muffins only lasts us through breakfast! I'm willing Spring to come early around here so I thought I'd add some lemon to my favorite muffin recipe. We'll see if it works! In my mind, Springtime and lemon just go together.
While everyone might have their own thoughts on the rest of the menu, one thing we can all agree on is that McDonald's french fries reign supreme when it comes to eating some perfectly crispy and flavorful potatoes. But what makes them so good?
We kicked off Salted Caramel Week on Monday with Salted Caramel Skillet Brownies. I hope you all had a chance to make them. They are pretty divine. Salted caramel week continues today with Salted Caramel Toffee Coconut Macaroons.
