When it comes to parties and serving food, I am definitely a semi-homemade kind of girl. I have a few things in my repertoire that I do well and I like to stick to them. Here are 2 recipes (if you can even call them that) that I get lots of requests for:
Champagne Mocktail - great for showers or to make a preggo friend that can't drink at your party - or, like my friend C, at her own birthday celebration!
- Start with a champagne glass, add fresh raspberries to the bottom
- Pour in 1/3 cranberry juice
- Top of with Welch's Sparkling - available in the juice aisle at the grocery store
Chocolate Banana Eclair Pie - so simple, yet so amazing!
- 1 box graham crackers
- 2 3 oz instant pudding mix - one vanilla and one banana
- 3 cups milk
- 1 8 0z container of Cool-Whip
- 1 16 oz container of chocolate frosting
- line the bottom of a 9x13 pan with graham crackers
- Combine pudding mix and milk in a large bowl - stir and follow directions on box. Mix in whipped topping and beat with a beater on medium until blended and fluffy
- Spread half mixture over graham crackers
- Add another layer of crackers, whipped mix and top with a final layer of crackers
- Spread chocolate frosting over top and refrigerate until set
Hope you enjoy these simple recipes as much as my friends do!
