Appetizer ideas

This weekend I am having a birthday party for my sons and I came up with a few ideas for appetizers. I am very excited to try these! Do you have any good "picky" foods for parties?

HAPPY COOKING!!

Great Idea for your Kindergartener

Here is a GREAT idea for your active kindergartener.
Print out the sight words they are working on at school.


Put the print outs on one side of the room and you and your K sit on the other side.

Tell them the sight word you want to have them get. They run, get the word, bring it back to you and then you give them a treat ( example use a bag of fruit snack and give them one piece each time they get it right. Another idea would be to use seasonal items you can find at the $ section at target..small erasers, pencils, tattoos, candy corn, etc.)


My son would love this game since he has a hard time sitting for a long time and needs to work on his sight words for homework.

Every year for Christmas morning I have tried making a monkey bread overnight casserole and it never comes out good. So I am on the hunt for something new for breakfast. I am looking for something that I can make Christmas eve and then just pop it in the oven in the morning. What do you make for Christmas morning? 



Easy Potato and Bacon Breakfast Casserole

recipe from Our Best Bites
Ingredients:
  • 4 c. Southern/country-style hash browns (cubes), completely thawed (if they’re not thawed, they won’t cook correctly)
  • 1 12-oz. package bacon
  • 1 1/2 c. pepper jack cheese
  • 1 1/2 c. cheddar cheese
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 c. milk
  • about 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • about 10 turns freshly ground black pepper
Begin cooking bacon.  While the bacon is cooking, place the potatoes in a 9×13″ baking dish. Mix the cheeses together and sprinkle it over the potatoes. When the bacon is done cooking, drain it on a paper towel and reserve 2 tablespoons of the drippings. Cook the onions in the drippings for 2-3 minutes or until they’re tender and fragrant. Spread the onions over the cheese mixture and then sprinkle everything with the crumbled bacon.  Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper and, whisking constantly, pour the egg mixture evenly over the potato mixture.  Cover and refrigerate overnight or for 7-8 hours. (Picky Apple note: mine went straight from prep to the oven, and it still tasted great!)
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350.  Bake, uncovered, for 40-45 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly but not brown. Allow to stand for 15 minutes before cutting. Serve with fresh fruit.
