Let’s Discuss!
Over the last 2 weeks we tried 2 new recipes. And they are keepers! Here is what my family thought:
- Chicken Shawarma Crispy Rice Salad– When I think salad, I think of lettuce or greens. This is a warm, savory chicken combo is amazing! We loved the mix of flavors and textures. It would be good as a filling in a wrap, too.
- Snickerdoodle Bars– I was worried this layered dessert would take too long to make, but it was surprisingly easy. The crunchy Biscoff layer is so yummy!
I found some new dessert recipes over the next 2 weeks to try and I’m looking forward to making them. The Millionaire Brownies look really good. While I love making new desserts, my favorites are Lofthouse Cookie Bars and Reese Peanut Butter Bars.
