Sweet Peas Parma


It's Taste of Home Tuesday! I pinned this recipe a while back, hoping to make it with fresh spring peas.  Sadly, an extended winter has put all produce a bit behind, and I really wanted to get this on the menu.   Using the "steam in bag" frozen peas makes it super-fast and easy. 

One other slight change, and that was to use a handful of heirloom cherry tomatoes, quartered instead of a medium tomato. I loved the colors it added. The crispy prosciutto was amazing, it was hard not to eat it all straight out of the pan.  Before I would have counted frozen peas as on the lower end of my favorite vegetables list, but this recipe definitely changed that.

  3. We enjoy peas, but tend to be pretty boring about how we fix them. I can't wait to try them like this!

Strawberry Pizzelles

Pizzelles are one of my favorite childhood cookies and I'm constantly looking for ways to put a new spin on them.  Since one of my favorite summer fruits is strawberries, I swapped out the vanilla in the original recipe with strawberry extract. 

Easy Stuffed Waffles with Sweet and Savory Fillings

Stuffed waffles are a fun twist on the classic waffle—crispy on the outside and packed with tasty fillings inside. I recently got a stuffed waffle maker, and I’m loving how it turns waffles into little pockets of deliciousness! The best part? You don’t need a strict recipe because this is a perfect “clean out the fridge” meal. Grab whatever leftovers or fillings you have on hand, stuff ’em inside, and waffle away! Here’s what I tried this time, but feel free to get creative and make it your own.
