Golden Rules of Food Safety
IF IN DOUBT, THROW IT OUT! If you have any
question in your mind about the freshness or safety of eating a food product,
throw it out. It is better to be safe than sorry!
Picnic Safety Tips
There
is nothing more American than the picnic. Picnics can take on many forms,
such as the community picnic, friends and neighbors, tailgate parties, or
ball games. There is also one sure thing at every picnic-lots of good food.
The important point is to have safe and healthy food, not food that can
cause food borne illness. Always prepare and store food properly.

Crusty Dinner Rolls with Baked Eggs and Herbs
This is a fun breakfast that the kids or grandkids love to
help with. I like my yolks to be just set, but not runny. That way, I can
pick it up and eat it out of my hand. Our grandkids prefer it that way, as well.
Nuvolone - Cloud Soufflé - Egg Soufflé
This egg dish will really impress your family and guests as it tastes as
good as it looks! Very gourmet, but also very easy to make!
Apple Pancake
The smell of the apples
cooking in the oven will drive you wild, let alone the taste of the pancake
after it is baked.
You couldn't serve a better pancake recipe to your family and friends
for breakfast or brunch. |

is one of those recipes that you will wonder why you didn't try it
sooner. Men especially go wild over this bacon, and this bacon will be a huge hit
with them! Excellent to serve for a brunch or special occasion breakfast.

Harvest Cinnamon Rolls
These are absolutely
wonderful cinnamon rolls - very rich and delicious! The best part about making this cinnamon roll recipe is that the dough can
be mixed and the rolls filled, shaped, and frozen. The night before
I need to bake them, I take them out of the freezer to thaw and rise. When I awake in the morning, I just bake. So
easy to make and so rewarding!

More Beverage Ideas:
 Italian Affogato - Affogato al Cafe
Affogato means "drowned" in Italian or
"drowned in coffee." It is a dish of perfect, preferably
smooth ice cream, drowning in a cup of espresso - like a decadent coffee
float!
 Hot Chocolate
There is a difference between hot cocoa and hot chocolate. The
terms are often used interchangeably, but technically they are as different as white chocolate and bittersweet chocolate. Hot cocoa is
made from cocoa powder, which is chocolate pressed free of all its richness, meaning the fat of cocoa butter.
 Chai Tea - Masala Chai - Spiced Milk Tea
Chai, pronounced with a long "i" as in the word tie, is the actual word for
tea in many countries. It is also called masala chai (Masala meaning
"spiced"). It is a centuries-old beverage from India which is
basically black tea brewed with selected spices and milk. The spices
vary from recipe to recipe, but is traditionally consumed hot and sweet. Play with the
flavors and make this tea your own! This is a great alternative to
coffee.
