Double Chocolate Peppermint Pancakes
When Mike and I moved in together in 2017, I started a new Christmas tradition for us. Like most good traditions, the one I started involved food. You aren’t shocked, are you? You shouldn’t be. The tradition is that I make some kind of sweet tasty delicious breakfast for us on Christmas Eve morning. Since […]
Air Fried Apple Stacks with Maple Almond Butter
Do you have more apples than you know what to do with because you’ve spent all your autumn weekends apple picking? That sounds nice, but honestly I can’t relate. I’ve never been a big orchard fruit picker unless we’re talking about picking up fruit from a farmer’s market or a grocery store. In that case, […]
Peppermint Cookie Bark
Any kind of chocolate bark is a favorite of mine during the holiday season. As a bonus, it’s super simple to make and it’s a great thing to make with kids. It’s great for holiday bake sales and it would make a thoughtful teacher’s gift as well. So here is my spin on peppermint bark! […]
Candied Nuts
Is it even the holidays if there aren’t Candied Nuts at your parties and gatherings? I’m going to say no. Definitely not. So I’m here to make your day, yet again! These Candied Nuts are a cleaned up version of the crap you see in stores around the holidays. My spin on Candied Nuts contain […]
Vegan Hot Chocolate
Happy December! Writing that freaked me out just a little bit. 2019 has really flown by so far and there’s no sign of it slowing down whatsoever. Holiday recipes are in full swing over here in The Hungry Hungry Hiker kitchen and what better way to kick off Christmas recipes than with classic hot chocolate? […]
Holiday Leftover Egg Cups
You’re soon to be staring at a huge pile of leftovers that likely took several people hours to prepare. The big meal is great. It really is. But I’m glad to see that, as the years go on, leftovers are getting more excitement and attention than ever before. Turn some of your leftovers into a […]
Stuffed Meatballs with Cranberry Orange Relish
Happy Thanksgiving week! I seriously can’t believe it’s here already. Today I’m bringing you a new idea for a holiday appetizer. Did your mom finally text you back and now she’s demanding that you show up with an appetizer in hand? I’m here for you. I’m on dessert duty myself this year, but if you’ve […]
Autumn Superfood Salad with Maple Mustard Vinaigrette
A few years ago I was having a nice, relaxing, weeknight catch up with my good friends Dave and Chad. It was November, just a few weeks before Thanksgiving, and we were sharing our menus with one another. After I finished telling them what I had planned for the biggest meal of the year, Dave […]
Stuffing
Happy Thursday! I’m happy you’re here, and I’m happy to remind you that Thanksgiving is exactly two weeks from today! 2019 is basically over, it’s fine. I am having a blast creating new Thanksgiving recipes! I think it’s mostly due to the fact that Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, as explained in a recent blog […]
Brown Butter and Herb Mashed Potatoes
I consider myself somewhat of a mashed potato connoisseur. Growing up, my favorite meal was Mrs. T’s pierogies. My second favorite meal was rotisserie chicken, mashed potatoes, and garlic green beans. My third favorite meal was meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Are you sensing a common theme here? In case you’re struggling, I’ll answer my own […]
