Eeeek....So excited about how awesome this paper plate Hippopotamus craft turned out! My daughter has been requesting one of my favorites at bedtime lately,

I always come home with an empty container when I bring this dish to a party. It can be made ahead to free up time later. I serve it with pretty frilled toothpicks for a festive look. —Peggy Cairo, Kenosha, Wisconsin

Enjoy, Debs :) 5 Paper Plate-a-sauruses with templates Here’s an activity for all the dinosaur-loving kids out there. These paper plate-a-sauruses are based on the real species and all feature a colourful paper plate body with a paper cut-out head, legs and tail. They can help kids learn the real names of the dinosaurs and also have a fun, messy art and craft element to them. My friend’s 5 year old boy tested this idea out for me and absolutely LOVED the dinosaurs he made (a T-rex and a Stegosaurus), and suggested next time we could make a Pterodactyl and a Diplodocus. I’ve gone one better and created a Triceratops as well, so you have 5 dinosaur templates to choose from that you can make with your kids. My girls had fun making these too. You will need: • Paper plates • Coloured heavy paper stock for your dinosaur templates (at the bottom of the post) • Scissors and a hole punch (or googly eyes if you prefer) • Items to decorate your paper plates with. You can use anything you like, but we used paints and sponge stamps for ours. How to: Cut some paper plates in half and decorate them. We used paints but for a less messy option try pencils, textas, crayons or stickers. My kids loved stamping patterns with these sponge stamps, made by cutting simple shapes from a kitchen sponge. They are sooo quick and easy to make. Most of the templates work best by painting the back of the paper plate, but for the Pterodactyl the front side works best. Decorating the plates will keep them busy for a while … Leave the painted plate art to dry for an hour or two. Whilst they are drying you can cut out the paper dinosaur shapes from the templates below. For best results print them straight on to the heavy coloured paper stock. The Diplodocus is the easiest shape for little hands to cut out if you want your kids to do the cutting. The other templates are quite intricate and you will probably need to cut them out yourself. Once you have cut out the paper shapes staple them on to your dry paper plate. Punch a hole for the eye, or if you prefer stick on a googly eye These are the dinosaurs we made … Templates These templates are designed to fit a standard dinner sized paper plate.

Unveil the delight of Bacon Jalapeño Popper Eggrolls, a culinary masterpiece blending crispy bacon, spicy jalapeños, and creamy filling, all encased in a crispy shell. An irresistible treat that stands out in flavor and texture.

I think we can all agree that bacon is pretty irresistible as is. That crispy, crunchy texture and smoky flavor can liven up breakfast plates and add an extra oomph to salads and sandwiches. Which is precisely why it’s time to up the ante on your next batch of bacon with the help of a few rich, sweet, spicy, and savory upgrades. Even though it doesn’t necessarily come with a mild flavor, bacon is a total blank canvas.

Pork Potstickers are a traditional potsticker recipe with round flour wrappers filled with a pork and cabbage mixture, dipped in a homemade sauce. They are easier to make than you might think, and they taste better than any potstickers you may find at the store. You can even make your own wonton wrappers to use […]

These Lemon Oregano Mini Hasselback Potatoes are a yummy, crispier take on traditional Greek potatoes. I am the biggest fan of traditional Greek potatoes, but with the added crispiness of these mini hasselback potatoes, I’d argue that these are even tastier. Using baby potatoes makes this a perfect bite-size snack, appetizer, or side dish. Serving...Read More
