Pumpkin Pie French Toast

With autumn official here, the pumpkin recipes are coming out.  Already my kiddos are telling me no more pumpkin! But, I can not help myself, I love pumpkin. Not only does it taste wonderful, it make a moist and yummy baked good.  My sister asked for a pumpkin french toast recipe and I thought I had already posted this.

With this recipe, I made a cinnamon syrup that really works well with this.  I think next time, I might add a little nutmeg as well to add to the flavor.  Nothing better than french toast with a hint of pumpkin and warm cinnamon syrup to start the day off right.  I hope you enjoy this as much as we do,  Stay turned for more pumpkin recipes, despite my kids complaining!

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Use Ghiradelli Milk Chocolate Chips and you will have achieved chocolate chip cookie perfection!

Sour Cream adds to the creaminess and takes the sweetness down a notch.  The frosting is still plenty sweet but not sickeningly so.  Butter Vanilla Emulsion is my other secret weapon that really elevates the flavor of this frosting! It can be found on Amazon, or in a craft store like Michaels,  but...
