There are just some classics that should always be on the menu around the holidays. For me, it’s pigs in a blanket.
However, just because they’re classics, doesn’t mean we can’t amp up the flavor in them. Enter: The Party Pigs….
Seasonal
Pumpkin Chai Poptarts
Even though it hit 90 degrees last week in DC, I am still hopping on the pumpkin train in the kitchen hoping that sends some signals to mother nature to cool it off a bit. Should work, right?
