Healthy holiday date bark!🎉 Traditional pepper

Healthy holiday date bark!🎉

Traditional peppermint bark is high in sugar and pretty much contains no nutrition — this holiday date bark is such a good, more nutritious and delicious DUPE that I’ve been obsessed with as an after dinner snack all week! 😍

Dates — give this treat more fiber plus other vitamins and minerals and give this bark such a good carmel-y flavor
Almond butter — give this treat more vitamin E, magnesium and plant-based protein
Chocolate — I used hukitchen melted in the microwave in 15 second increments!
Pomegranate seeds — these beauties are packed with antioxidants and vitamin C and give this bark a nice crunch on top
Pumpkin Seeds — also add to the crunch factor plus are a good source of fiber and lots of vitamins and minerals!
Unsweetened coconut flakes
Flakey sea salt

Freeze for 10 minutes — cut up and enjoy! Store in the fridge to snack on!

Whether you’re cooking for just yourself or a cr

Whether you’re cooking for just yourself or a crowd this holiday season, food safety is SO important! 🍽️🎉 #sponsored

I’m excited to partner with trust20usa to spread the word about their training programs and resources available to food industry professionals and home cooks like us who want to expand our knowledge of food safety and food allergy safe cooking. 🥘

From danger zone temperatures to cross-contamination no-no’s, it’s important to be aware of potential food safety risks in cooking and baking to ensure the food you’re making is safe to eat! 💯

And chances are you or someone you know has an allergy to tree nuts, wheat, sesame or any of the other top 9 food allergens which makes it even more important to be aware of how cross contamination occurs and how to prevent it for everyone’s safety. 🥜

trust20usa’s courses are broken down into bite-sized sections with interactive scenarios that are relevant to today’s food safety concerns and cover industry regulations and best practices. Head to their website today to learn more about their trainings and resources!

Appetizer pumpkin! 🎃🦃

I had to make this pumpkin idea that is almost too cute to eat! 🥰🎃 Save for a fun & easy app that will look beautiful on your holiday table! Pumpkin butter goes so well with the melty brie & puff pastry 🧀

I’m not the original creator of this idea (trying to track them down to give credit!) but major props to them for this super cute & delicious idea! 🎉

I thawed puff pastry and then added pumpkin butter to the inside along with brie cheese. Then folded up the edges (cut a little off the ends if needed) then used bakers twine to make the pumpkin lines and brushed with an egg. Baked for 20 minutes at 400 and topped with a cinnamon stick and sage for the stem and leaves! 🎃 Enjoy!
