Easy Parmesan & Spinach Tidbits

I wanted to have something to bring to parties that was delicious, easy to prepare, and could be made ahead of time and frozen. This recipe is wonderful, and can be used for both casual events and more formal gatherings. Offering a variety of dipping sauces can make these tidbits a special treat, or just serving them warm on their own with a hearty chili and crusty bread will please any guests you are entertaining.

Chocolate Hazelnut French Toast

A make-ahead breakfast means next-to-no fussing in the morning. For a fabulous combination, serve with some chocolate sauce.

Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse

 Just four ingredients! No one will believe how easy it is to make this delectable dessert.

Chai Mango Lemonade

Chai-infused simple syrup sweetens mango nectar and lemon juice for a tart and refreshing summer drink. For an adult version, add a splash of white rum or vodka to your glass and garnish with lemon peel.

Lamb Chops with White Beans

Serve this rustic, warming dinner with wilted spinach or rapini.

Curried Chicken Melts

Firm, thin sandwich bread is ideal for these party pleasers. They look prettiest when the bread is cut before topping. However, for speedier prep, top the whole slices, then bake and cut into triangles.

Vanilla Pudding

Boston Lettuce Salad with Green Goddess Dressing

This creamy, herby dressing coats tender greens perfectly. For less fat, use light mayonnaise and sour cream.

Fluffy Icing

This light-textured, not-too-sweet icing is ideal for the rainbow cake or to match a featherlight angel food cake. Freeze any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks and use to frost cupcakes.
