Party pancake


So we have a new (and we would say better) way of doing pancakes! Here is all you do: buy pancake mix, check! Add a little vanilla extract (if you like). We add an egg too so there is more protein, and follow remaining directions on box. Keep in mind if you add the vanilla and egg you won't need to add as much liquid to the mix. Now here is the part that makes this special: mix and put in a greased MUFFIN TIN! Then add some meat, we prefer sausage- yum yum! But you can add anything. Just plop in right on top! Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes or until the top is lightly browned and BOOM! You have the best on the go pancake breakfast! 
We add a little butter and dip in syrup, or but some jam or jelly on it. Perfect! So now we have a good breakfast to keep our energy up... We are at war with the squirrels... 

Best bite!

So mom made this amazing appetizer! And it was SUPER easy and tasted delicious. It was a combo of all our favorites: crab Rangoon and bruschetta. Woooowie!!!!
All you have to do for this is cut the crust off white bread and smush it down (love doing this to my peanut butter sandwiches). You put olive oil on both sides of the smushed bread, and stick it in a muffin tin so it makes a cup. Then mix some cream cheese with italian seasoning and garlic powder. You want enough cream cheese mix to plop and small spoonful in each cup. Then bake! We tried the oven at 375 and that was WAY to hot, so back it down to 350 and check it to make sure it's not burning: you just want to brown the edges. Maybe 12 minutes. Then take a slice of mozzarella cheese (we used the ball and sliced it up) and a salted slice of tomato. Drizzle a smidge of balsamic vinegar an BOOM! You have the yummiest appetizer ever! Super simple and clean to eat: even mommy didn't drop any on the floor!
Catch you later!
