March Food Adventures

Some of our March culinary adventures...

First up, a Chocolate Bailey's Cheesecake with green mint frosting and candied mint leaves. We took this to a St. Patrick's Day party. It also had a chocolate graham cracker crust. Yum!


The other big adventure for March was the making of our own pita bread. The recipe didn't sound too difficult. People mentioned they had issues getting it to "puff up" in the oven. Ours ended up puffing perfectly, even without any extra tricks!

The best part... it was super easy to make! You mix the dough the night before and let it rise in the fridge. The longer the better. Then you form it into balls, let rise on the counter, roll out, let rise a few minutes more, then bake!



I doubt we'll ever buy pita bread again!
