Trish's
Holiday Pin It and Do It Challenge officially ends on Monday, so I'll wrap things up by sharing a few Christmas week pins. After my somewhat disappointing attempts at
fall decor, I decided to return to recipes. All photos are from Pinterest... I was too busy cooking.
Sweet Potato Cauliflower SoupWe love soup, and I wanted to have a couple varieties on hand when the girls came home. Twin A's request for sweet potato soup lead to one of my first
pins (pinned 34 weeks ago via
Care onto my
Soup & Stew board), but the soup actually tasted more like cauliflower than sweet potatoes. The garam masala, purchased especially for this recipe, added depth to the flavor. Only one of the girls liked it as much as I did and my husband didn't even try it. I'm not sure whether I'll make it again.
Brie and Raspberry Phyllo CupsA member of my book club always brings these tasty treats to our summer pot luck dinner. I wanted to serve them as an appetizer on Christmas Eve, but wasn't sure of the baking time or temperature. I went searching for a recipe and
pinned it - simple, elegant, and delicious.
Green Beans AlmondineAlso prepared for Christmas Eve dinner, but I've never used an actual recipe. The shallots were a flavorful addition. I will definitely use this
pinned recipe again.
Gingerbread PancakesAs soon as I
repinned this recipe from
Amanda, I knew it would be served for Christmas breakfast. We substituted plain Greek yogurt for sour cream. Topped with sauteed pears, this recipe is definitely a keeper!
Broccoli Cauliflower CasseroleI needed a vegetable casserole for Christmas dinner and decided to try something new.
This pin from McCormick was a big hit.
These five recipes, combined with my
fall pins, land me in the 'Pin Obsessed' category - very fitting! Thanks again for hosting, Trish.
