šŸ³Comment LINK for this Sheet Pan Breakfast recipe! šŸ³Comment LINK for this Sheet Pan Breakfast recipe! Using frozen shredded potatoes really makes this one pan meal even easier. If you want to use shredded sweet potatoes or carrots and canā€™t find them frozen, you can definitely just add some fresh grated veggies to a bag of frozen regular potatoes. This recipe is also super versatile and you can add in bell peppers, cauliflower rice, or any veggie youā€™d like. I added some chicken breakfast sausage as well but you can leave the extra protein off or add bacon instead. As always, thereā€™s a #kidsinthekitchen section in the full blog post to help you find ways to have kids help make this recipe. Wouldnā€™t this be awesome for a breakfast for dinner too? Let me know if you have any questions or give the recipe a try! šŸ˜ŠšŸ’•

šŸ¦ Only 2 ingredients (plus optional toppings) to m šŸ¦ Only 2 ingredients (plus optional toppings) to make some yummy, gluten-free ice cream sandwiches. Great for a Passover friendly treat or fun dessert for kids to help make anytime! ā€¦. Ingredients: about 10 coconut macaroons, 1 pint ice cream (regular or dairy free), optional: dark chocolate or chocolate chip, and toppings (I used chopped pistachios and sprinkles). Hereā€™s how to make them: Makes 8 using a loaf pan or double the recipe and use a square baking pan. Line the pan with plastic wrap. Press store bought coconut macaroons into the bottom of the pan. I used 10. Take a little time to press the macaroons in evenly to you get a flat sheet. Pull the sheet out and repeat the process so you have top and bottom layers of macaroon. Layer in ice cream of your choice. Press down so you get a packed, even layer of ice cream that is about an inch thick. Place the macaroon layer on top of the ice cream and press down gently. Freeze the pan for at least 3 hours or overnight. Working quickly, cut into bars. I found a serrated knife works best. Place back in the freezer to keep cold. Melt some dark chocolate (I used a 4oz bar). Dunk or drizzle the ice cream sandwiches with chocolate and sprinkle on toppings right away before the chocolate hardens. Place back in the freezer as needed to keep the ice cream from melting. Store in a container or zip top bags in the freezer. Enjoy! ā€¦ #passover #passoverdesserts
