When we have a hankering for wings, this is one of the two recipes I turn to - the other being Lemon Garlic.
Flavourful crunchy breadcrumbs adhere to a mustard base - and you can get super creative with variations inspired by the mustard you use!

One of my MIL’s special event Hungarian treats were these... these - what to call them?? We always called them “sajtos” - which translates to “cheesies” - not a very sophisticated label. So in English, let's call them Hungarian Cheese Snacks.
Imagine these as part of a charcuterie / antipasto spread. Or - if it's a trend to serve wine with potato chips - surely these are more classy. When it comes right down to it, I can't think of any time when these would not be a big hit!

From time to time, my mother reminisces about "nuts and bolts" - the flavourful, crunchy snack she used to make for her euchre parties.
Nuts and bolts on one corner, and bridge mix on the other. No surprise, there are many variations of this recipe online. I finally found her recipe, and jazzed up the flavour a bit.

As the Holiday Season approaches, you may already be thinking about the need for appetizers. Here's one of my favourites.
Use ordinary cremini mushrooms or a fancier combo. This tastes best on toasted egg bread. Let guests serve themselves or prep a fancy platter for an impressive show.

I was tempted to call these 'Hi-Fi" Muffins - which they are, but went with the name used by the originator - Mairlyn Smith. Her motto is "Peace, Love and Fibre" - and these muffins deliver on the fibre! - and of course, the peace and love...
This post also reveals the secret to optimizing carb and sugar intake. You'll love these tasty treats that Mairlyn calls "pipe cleaners"!

Dips. They work well with crackers and veggies, and come in handy as a pre-dinner appetizer, a contribution to a pot luck, or for a wine and movie night - not to be confused with "Netflix and Chill".
I can remember when the most common "dip" was the combination of sour cream and a packet of dry onion soup mix. This is soooo much better - and better for you.
Celebrate the International Year of the Pulse with this!

Luka just marked her 10th birthday and her treat from the KB kitchen will be homemade doggie treats! I'm sharing two recipes that you may want to make for your favourite canine. The first are "Dog Breath Biscuits", and sad to say Luka is at times in need of these (wink). In theory, the fresh mint and parsley are supposed to do the trick. Luka loves them and is happy to perform her twirly dance to get one.
The second recipe - "Sweet Potato and Apple Treats" - is a newer one with fewer ingredients - faster if you are pressed for time.

Tortilla wraps have been a regular staple for decades now, and serve many functions.
These ricotta wraps have, for me, been breakfast, snack and lunch - and just recently an appetizer contribution to a social gathering. Ditto could apply to the more savoury wrap.

Do you have favourite ways of using wraps?
Are you still resisting the Chia Pudding craze? Chia "pudding" has a tapioca-like / "gloopy" look, but a smooth eating consistency. It can be eaten at any time of the day - even as a dessert - but seems most popular as a breakfast food.
