Pantry Recipes: Homemade Maple Syrup

At my place there are a lot of nights where breakfast becomes dinner. Between having breakfast for breakfast, and breakfast for dinner, we tend to go through a lot of maple syrup. I wanted to try out a homemade syrup recipe, just a basic Maple to start. It turned out great and it was very simple to make. I’m willing to bet that some of you have the majority of the ingredients in your pantry like I did. No candy thermometers necessary, just stir continuously

Easter Brunch – Spinach, Bacon and Swiss Quiche

Quiche

Quiche tends to get a bad wrap. Heck, even I wasn’t a fan of quiche, until I tried this recipe. Imagine a flavorful, creamy quiche filled with small pockets of cream cheese, bacon and Swiss.

I think I may be addicted.  If you think you can handle the temptation, this would be a perfect dish to take for an Easter brunch

Yeah, me too.  As parents, we tend to care for our children first and forget about our own needs, like eating a good breakfast.  In fact, 90% of consumers believe that breakfast is important yet over half of Americans are still not eating breakfast on a regular basis.  Fortunately, Quaker has created a genius tool for this dilemma called the Breakfast Building Tool. The Quaker Breakfast Solutions page has a nifty breakfast builder where users can customize their families

Valentine’s Day Conversation Heart Pancakes

009

Breakfast is always a challenge here before school, so I thought I’d start the day out with a little Valentine’s Day surprise! I used regular pancake mix and mixed in a few drops of NEON food coloring. (McCormick) I then poured the batter into a ziplock bag and cut off a corner so I could squeeze out the batter into a heart shape. You could just make round pancakes and use a cookie cutter as well. I was happy with colored heart pancakes, but then

If you are like me and have tried more than a few bundt cake recipes, you may be looking for something different. This is a recipe I’m willing to bet most people haven’t tried before, which is a shame. If you are feeling ambitious, add orange zest to either the cake or the glaze for a delicious zip of flavor.
