📅 Food Holidays

  • March 19 is Oatmeal Cookie Day - the perfect time to stir up a batch of these old fashioned oatmeal cookies!
  • March 20 is National Ravioli Day. Make the easy skillet recipe below OR try this creamy ravioli soup!
  • March 25 is National Waffle Day. Use any leftover fruit salad to serve over these fluffy buttermilk waffles.

💭 Things to know

  • You can bake the base for the taco pizza ahead of time. I like to bake a few at a time and freeze them along with cooked and seasoned taco meat so I can throw together dinner in minutes.
  • Leftover fruit salad? Serve it over waffles for brunch or layer with yogurt for a delicious breakfast parfait.
  • Double the baguettes and save half for the fried chicken po' boys. Smear the bread with the leftover garlic butter before making the sandwich. SO good.
  • You can add leftover cooked chicken to the bbq macaroni salad to make an awesome lunch salad.
