Food Blogger Picks for Holiday Feasting
Dec 02, 2015
Happy December! You survived Thanksgiving and the resulting turkey-induced lethargy. Now it’s time to make room in your refrigerator—and your belly—for more holiday delights. We’ve rounded up four food blogger recipes that fit the bill for festive entertaining. Bonus: they all feature the wholesome, nutritious goodness of Libby’s® Vegetables, so you can make it through this second round of feasting food coma-free.
Carrot Soup Shooters
Lisa of Snappy Gourmet is the mastermind behind these Cinnamon Carrot Soup Shooters with Maple Glazed Bacon. It’s the type of recipe that sounds—and looks—impressively complicated, but in reality takes less than 30 minutes to pull together. The presentation is where things get fancy: homemade carrot soup (made with Libby’s® Sliced Carrots) is served in a shot glass and topped with crispy, sweet bacon.
Sweet Pea Casserole
Tiffany over at Eat At Home perfected the creamy-crunchy combination in this Creamed Sweet Pea Casserole. The recipe coats Libby’s® Sweet Peas in a special homemade sauce and sprinkles the mixture with French fried onions.
Skillet Corn Bread
Jen and Sia, the duo that runs Thrifty Northwest Mom, concocted this Old Fashioned Skillet Corn Bread. It’s made with Libby’s® Whole Kernel Sweet Corn and tastes just like that bread your grandmother used to make: sweet, moist and perfectly crispy on top.
Green Bean Casserole Tartlets
We have Becky at The Two Bite Club to thank for these Green Bean Casserole Tartlets made with Libby’s® Cut Green Beans. It’s an adorable and tasty twist on an old holiday favorite.
