Hot Mint Cocoa Toddy

Sunday was one of those days I just couldn't get warm. It was also the last day of our winter break, so I thought nice spiked cocoa would be just the thing. I found this on HamptonRoadsHappy Hour.com.

I like dark hot cocoa, so I went with that for mine and regular for Tim's. I didn't use the cinnamon stick, the ones I have are ancient. I garnished with mini chocolate chips instead of the grated chocolate. It made for a nice warm, relaxing afternoon :)

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites

I'm a huge fan of the Dunkin Donuts Power Breakfast sandwich, so when I started seeing ads for the new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites I stopped in and gave them a try. They were delicious, but of course, I knew I could make them at home. I started with the whites of six eggs. You can use pasturized whites if you don't want to do the whole separating, finding a use for the yolks thing. I beat them up with some salt and pepper. Next up, the tomato and spinach. I used grape tomatoes, seeded them and then chopped them into 1/4" pieces. I like baby spinach, and I took about 10 leaves and chopped those up into 1/4" pieces as well. I added that to the egg mixture. When you pour it into the pans, be sure that it all gets evenly distributed. They bake up pretty quickly, around 9 minutes or so. Dunkin gives you two egg bites, the mini donut serving size is three. I pop them in ziplocs in the fridge and just pull a bag and reheat them in the microwave for a quick

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Bacon and Cheddar Omelet Bites

Since I already came up with a version of Dunkin Donuts new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites for myself, I decided to make the other variety that they are offering, Bacon & Cheddar, for my husband. Super simple. Beat up some eggs with salt and pepper. Add in some shredded cheddar and a slice of bacon cut into 1/4" pieces (I used kitchen shears). Bake them for about 9 minutes in sprayed mini donut pans. They baked up light and fluffy. The bacon stayed crisp and there's just the perfect amount of cheese. I split them up into portions in zip top bags and that way we can just grab a bag and warm them up. My husband laughed when I told him 3 is the serving size. I'll definitely be doubling the recipe next time!

Lemon Pizzelles

One of the first cookies I can remember eating is a pizzelle, and I'm still a huge fan today. Even though you need a special iron to make them, the rest of it is really so simple. This time around I took the basic pizzelle recipe and instead of vanilla or anise, I used Adams lemon extract. I also used some of their yellow food coloring to distinguish them from my regular pizzelle.
