Beet Pickled Eggs
My family always had these at family functions. They are perfect with just a sprinkling of fresh salt, or made into deviled eggs.
Salty and rich brie cheese with tangy blueberry jam baked in a rich puffed pastry. Perfect for a party or a brunch.
A warm, gooey toasted sandwich of blackberry preserves and hearty cashew butter that has been buttered and griddled. Try it with almond butter also!
The combination of salty salami, rich ricotta and tangy Florida Blackberries make this a perfect cocktail hour bite.
Earthy blueberries provide a contrast to the rich and smooth musky brie.
A fun breakfast treat. Make in advance and freeze or just reheat in the oven or toaster oven. (Reheating in a slot toaster is not recommended). Make the dough yourself, or use pre-made dough.
Try with other fillings and flavors!!!
Creamy tangy goat cheese and blueberries, topped with crunchy toasted walnuts to add elegance to any party.
