MINIMIZE PERSPIRATION...MAXIMIZE INSPIRATION!
Hey “ya’ll”! I was down south last week and I’m having trouble transitioning back to “you guys”!
Last week was a wonderful time of renewal and growth. I hope to share more about it in the near future. But I promised in my most recent post that I’d get you up to speed on the whole recipe front! [Read more…]
Confession Time.
Skipping breakfast is one of my bad habits. There, I said it.
Here is my struggle. I get up in time to eat but my stomach just doesn’t feel ready and by the time it does I am hurrying out the door and looking for the most convenient thing to grab. But since I know the benefits of eating a good breakfast I have worked to break this bed habit and today I’m sharing my newest favorite! [Read more…]
The weather is getting chilly in South Dakota. That means several things:
I came close to posting a simple “Howdy doody I hope you’re having a great Labor Day!” but then I decided the day off might lend you an opportunity to bake. If that is the case than, girlfriend, you NEED this recipe.
Truth is I can hardly take it. Fall is SO close. My sons tell me I can’t light the pumpkin candle yet. They are still trying to eek out a few more summer activities. They’ve got seven days and than I’m lighting my candle regardless. [Read more…]
This bad boy has coconut instead of cocoa and an added touch of cinnamon (unlike the Zucchini Cake recipe I shared earlier in the month.)
These bars not only make the tummy feel warm but they capture that perfect “fall feeling” for the last of the garden zucchini.
If you click here for your printable pdf and start peeling that zucchini you’ll be eating warm, gooey bars in about 60 minutes. That deserves a “Bam!”
Your DoAhead Friend,
These bars are delicious with a cream-cheese frosting but are just as tasty with a light sprinkle of powdered-sugar!
The DoAhead for this recipe is much like the zucchini cake. You can grate your zucchini and freeze it in advance. You can also bake the bars and freeze them.
Be sure to utilize the following thawing instructions so you don't end up with "mushy" bars!
1. remove the bars from storage, uncover and place on a cooling rack.
2. Lightly drape a tea towel over the top.
3. Once bars are fully thawed and there is no trace of condensation place them in airtight storage (a baggie or container.)
Today’s DoAhead Dining post is from my amazing BIL “Uncle Greg”. Greg is our family’s resident “Emeril”. He. Can. Cook. He loves to create new concoctions in the kitchen and although we may be biased, we think He does it incredibly well! I consider myself lucky to feature some of his gems here on DoAhead. Today he’s sharing a tasty Rhubarb treat! Here’s a quick word from Greg! [Read more…]
