“Frost yourself” Anyone know what movie that’s from?

One of the ways I love to dress up garnishes this time of year is by frosting them! Frosted cranberries and rosemary can be used on boards or even in cocktails!

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗹𝗹 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱:
1 baking sheet lined with parchment paper
1/3 cup of water + 1 cup of sugar
1 cup of sugar for rolling
Cranberries, blackberries, rosemary, whatever you are sugaring

𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀:
1. Combine the 1/3 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar in a small saucepan. Stir until all sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil for 2 min and then remove from the stove to let cool.
2. Make sure you wash and pat dry the cranberries and everything else you are planning to sugar.
3. Put the remaining 1 cup of sugar on a plate. Dip the cranberries in your cooled sugar syrup mixture and then roll in sugar on plate. Place on lined baking sheet to set. *Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days!

Truth be told I’ve never hosted my own Thanksgiving dinner, but don’t let that fool you. I can still make killer apps, sides, and salads! Take this 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗕𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘁𝘀 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗱 for example.

Thanksgiving gatherings might be a little differen

Thanksgiving gatherings might be a little different this year. If you’re having a smaller crowd try making these 𝗣𝘂𝗺𝗽𝗸𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗶𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗳𝗮𝗶𝘁𝘀 instead of making a full pie. Speaking of pies, what’s your favorite pie flavor to eat on Thanksgiving? It’s pumpkin for me! 😋

𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀:
1 1oz vanilla gluten free instant pudding mix
1 cup fat free milk
1 15oz can pumpkin
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
16 oz lite whipped topping
Toasted Oat Granola Macadamia Chunk

𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀:
1. In a medium sized bowl, mix together instant pudding mix and milk. Whisk until pudding mixture starts to thicken.
2. Whisk in pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice.
3. Fold 8oz of whipped topping into the pudding mixture.
4. Spoon 2 tablespoons of Toasted Oat Granola into bottom of glass. Top with 3-4 tablespoons pumpkin mixture. Add a dollop of whipped topping and sprinkle more granola on top. Add a dash of pumpkin pie spice on top to garnish.
5. Place into the refrigerator for 1 hour or overnight.

It’s officially soup szn and I just published a 𝘚𝘖𝘜𝘗𝘦𝘳 easy recipe on my blog that comes together in just twenty minutes.

Do you remember that homemade pesto we made this summer and stashed away in the freezer? It time to thaw it out to make this 𝙋𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙤 𝙏𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙞 𝙎𝙤𝙪𝙥!!

It’s been a minute (Ahem...weeks) since I’ve shared a 20 minute meal. I’ve been shoulders deep in cheese boards which has taken away time from focusing on blog posts and recipes. But it’s time to get back into the groove!

When your mom asks if the salad was a Half Baked H

When your mom asks if the salad was a Half Baked Harvest recipe and you reply with “No, it’s a @rightbackspatula recipe”, YOU KNOW IT’S GOOD!! @pmp1007 had seconds of this salad AND asked for the rest for lunch the next day. What else do I need to tell you to convince you this salad is delish?

This 𝗥𝗼𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗕𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗱 is served with a tangy homemade 𝗛𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗕𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴! Bites of tart apples, bursts of pomegranate arils, and salty, tangy feta. Pistachios add the most delicious crunch to each healthy bite!

An apple a day, keeps the doctor away! Caramel Pan

An apple a day, keeps the doctor away! Caramel Pancake Apples are a must this fall! 🍎

𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀:
4 honeycrisp apples
3/4 cup @flapjacked mix protein pancake mix [Cinnamon Apple]
1/2 cup cold water
1/2 cup @thetoastedoat granola [Macadamia chunk]
2 tbsp butter
Dash of cinnamon
Caramels, melted for topping

𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Peel the top of each apple. Using a knife (and maybe spoon too), hallow out the apples making a well to pour pancake mixture. If your apples don’t sit up straight you may need to slice a thin layer off the bottom to form a flat surface.
3. Mix together pancake mix, water, and 1/2 cup granola. Pour into apple holes filling about 3/4 of the way.
4. Melt butter and add a couple dashes of cinnamon. Gently brush the rims of the apples before placing in the oven.
5. Bake in a cast iron skillet or deep baking dish for about 25-30min.
6. Top with melted caramels and granola crumbles.
