Chicken Broccoli Burritos

This is a simple, yet tasty take on burritos. Perfect for a quick weekday meal.
I love this recipe because it's so easy to put together with just a few ingredients and it's much healthier than my favorite burrito at our local TexMex joint! If you can find Wegmans' Sante Fe salsa, I highly recommend using that - delicious! It's also simple to adapt if you want a vegetarian version - skip the chicken and add more broccoli.

Slow Cooker Mediterranean Chicken

This is one of my favorite winter slow cooker recipes! I picked up the original recipe years ago from some magazine that I've since lost and made a few adjustments:

My local Wegmans sells butternut squash already prepped into chunks, so this is a quick, easy meal to pull together.

The recipe is available to download here.

Bon Bon Cookies

The focus of our Christmas cookie trays each year are our Bon Bon Cookies. They're a light lemony flavor that are wonderful with coffee after a holiday meal. They also make elegant desserts for a bridal shower or wedding when topped with silvery sprinkles.
This recipe makes a lot - over 200 cookies - but it's easy to adjust down into smaller batches.

Mountain of dough, ready to roll......

The perfect shot glass to cut out the bon bons....

Hot cookies sliced and ready to be filled with jam...  Slight pressure on either side opens up the "mouth"...

Happy filled bon bons...

Iced, sprinkled, and plated...
