AmyA friend and I have this routine in which we go to the laundromat on the Sunday after pay day. Rather than change things up, we went to the laundromat on Easter Sunday. By the way, if you ever need time to yourself on Easter Sunday I recommend a laundromat. I decided that we could still enjoy a small Easter dinner at the laundromat. It's about the food and the company. The location is irrelevant. The Menu Muffin Tin Potatoes Gratin Light Strawberry-Spinach Salad Carrot Honey Loaf (the recipe for this will be posted on tomorrow's bake) Muffin Tin Potatoes Gratin From allrecipes To this I added chopped smoked ham. This may make a great dish for leftover ham. Bonus recipe: Light Strawberry-Spinach Salad From Taste of Home I am most pleased with this wee feast. NikitaYou may think you see a muffin here, but that is definitely NOT a muffin. On Easter morning, we went hiking up South Mountain to this hut on the top of the hill. It was an early start, and I knew we would not have time for breakfast before our hike. The night before, I made Baked Oatmeal. No flour because that's what makes a muffin a "muffin", right? This tasted like cooked oatmeal in the shape of a muffin. I used different toppings to change it up a little. This one pictured had little chocolate chips, but my favorite topping was blueberries. They were sweet and tangy which complimented the "quakerness" of the oatmeal. It calls for brown sugar and spices, so they are not really sweet (at least not as sweet as my Sunday Bakery submission for tomorrow). Give it a try when you need something on-the-go and full of fiber! GeorgiaNon-muffin muffin's. I can honestly say that when I think of muffins I think of breakfast or even brunch. So I was thrilled when I saw that the other ladies took the muffin tin to a whole new level by making something completely different. As for me.. I still went with breakfast. I made bacon egg and cheese with a (non) crusty grits base JenNon-muffin muffins! I found a recipe online for this week’s challenge using several things I already had on hand: Potato Topped Mini Meatloaves. Not sure that I have ever made meatloaf for my husband, despite him supposedly suggesting meatloaf many years ago. I don’t remember the conversation, but apparently I said I don’t make meatloaf. Lol The recipe calls for foil baking cups, but it worked fine with just cooking spray right in the pan - they came out easily with a big spoon. And the mess washed off the pan with hardly any effort. Conclusion: this recipe is a keeper!! Delicious. Although, piping on mashed potatoes seems a little silly. I will probably just cook meatloaf muffins then top with a plop of potatoes when I serve it. I also made breakfast for tomorrow morning at the same time. Omelets. In a muffin pan. Non-muffin muffins, two meals in a row! Hopefully they taste good. :) Jen Recipe: Muffins.. But not your mama's muffins.. How fun was this week coming up with new ways to use your muffin tins.
Until next week when Nikita has us all making crepes. Amy, Nikita, Georgia and Jen
