From delicious drinks and yummy dishes, holidays are a warm reminder of fond family memories. I love the fact that now I can create my own memories (and dishes to share!) with Charlie and Jack. When we get together with our extended family, every person brings their signature creation and it’s always a treat to enjoy all of our favorites on the same day.
If you’re looking for something fresh and delicious to add to your upcoming holiday party, Organic Valley has some great options to add some new flair to old favorites.
Some of the recipes have been handed down from generation to generation, such as Apple Oatmeal Muffins from sixth generation organic dairy farmer Abbie Corse. And, no holiday tradition is complete without the eggnog.
Farm-fresh organic milk and cream, organic egg yolks, and fair trade organic vanilla extract and nutmeg make Organic Valley’s organic eggnog extra special. For more recipes, cooking videos, coupons, and a sweepstakes to win $12,000 for kitchen appliances, please visit www.pastureperfectholidays.com.
