Create a Memorable Memorial Day

May 24, 2020 | Funtime, Recipes

While for so many, Memorial Day weekend is the official kick–off for the “summer season,” it is a very serious holiday, and we feel like it’s a great opportunity to let family and friends, and kids know what it’s all about.

Memorial Day is a time to honor members of the armed forces who have given their lives in service to our country. It also means an extra day to spend time with family—but how? Try one of these family friendly and kid-approved ways to enjoy your time. Create your own tradition this holiday! Plus, we’ve passed along some of our favorite little recipes to enjoy.

EASY TURKEY MEATLOAF

Apr 30, 2020 | Recipes

I never liked turkey meatloaf until I tried this recipe. It is so easy to prepare and everyone who has tried it really loves it. Young and old alike agree they want to “gobble it up”! I love it with mashed potatoes and peas.

THE BEST ROAST CHICKEN EVER!

Mar 26, 2020 | Recipes

an exclusive article from Laurie Burrows Grad, grandmother extraordinaire…*
A delicious recipe that says: ‘happy first day of spring’!
The key to this dish is to have the butcher cut out the backbone of the chicken to “butterfly” it. To butterfly a whole chicken means to remove the chicken’s backbone so you can open the chicken like a book, or a butterfly, and lay it flat – another term also used is to ‘spatchcock’. This is a basic recipe. If you would like to embellish it with rosemary or other herbs, feel free!

This is such a yummy and easy recipe to make for yourself, or double, triple, or quadruple for others. It’s truly delicious. What we love best is that it’s already to go in the am, and super easy to transport on those mornings when you know you have absolutely no time to stop and eat.

Double the recipe and have enough cold oats for the week!

So, if you’re at home today, this is the perfect time to drag out a heavy soup pot, pick some spices, and get something warm and comforting simmering on the back burner.
