Beef and Oats Sliders #SundayFunday

The addition of oats to this ground beef keeps the meat juicier and adds extra fiber to make them more filling.  I used one pound of ground beef and a 1/4 c. of oats and ended up with 6 delicious sliders in under half an hour.  You can't get carryout that is as quick or as good.

Ribollita, A Murder in Chianti and The Weekly Menu

This hearty dish is more of a stew than a soup.  Chock full of vegetables, white beans, kale and bread it is a one pot meal that is perfect for Meatless Monday or as a Lenten Meal.

Light and refreshing this cocktail is the perfect start to your Easter festivities or any Springtime Celebration. Key lime, blood orange, and kumquat juice sweetened with a bit of brown sugar and mixed with Rum before being garnished with fresh mint,  this cocktail is as lovely to look at as it is to drink.

Today is the final day of Spring Sweets Week.  I hope you have enjoyed it as much as I.  Since it is Friday, I am celebrating with a cocktail.......
