Roasted Sugar Snap Peas

Happy Taste of Home Tuesday!  I can't believe it's been 3 years since I was selected to be a Community Cook for Taste of Home magazine! I started reading them way back in the 90s when my Gram subscribed, and I've got almost every issue back to the premiere.  I've had two recipes published and have made more than 225 recipes from the magazines, cookbooks and their website.  They're always winners with my family!

I hit the local farmstand over the weekend and they had beautiful sugar snap peas, and it only took me a few minutes of searching my pinterest board to decide what to make.  I love roasted vegetables so much more than boiled or steamed ones.   These Roasted Sugar Snap Peas are super fast and super delicious.  I was unable to find a shallot, so I used Bermuda onion instead.  

To be honest, I made them in the afternoon so I could take pictures intending on eating them with dinner.  They didn't last that long.  Crisp but tender, perfectly seasoned.   The Test Kitchen knocked it out of the park with this one, and it definitely is going into the menu rotation.

    Mmm! Sugar snap peas are on of my favorite veggies, but I hardly ever get them. I really need to change that! These look fantastic!

      They're one of the few green veggies I can get my kid to eat, so I try to grab them every time I see them :)

    LOVE sugar snap peas, but I usually eat them raw with hummus. Definitely going to try your recipe - I'll see if I can convert the rest of my family into snap pea lovers :-)

      Oh, I've been eating lots of hummus with cut up bell pepper lately, I'll definitely have to try it with snap peas! Thank you!

    I never thought of roasting snap peas. I think so many people just think of stir fries and salads with this vegetable. I am betting the flavor is phenomenal!

    We've been growing sugar snap peas this year, as we have the last few years, and love them. We usually eat them raw or occasionally stir fried but haven't tried roasting. One to try when we get some more!

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites

I'm a huge fan of the Dunkin Donuts Power Breakfast sandwich, so when I started seeing ads for the new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites I stopped in and gave them a try.  They were delicious, but of course, I knew I could make them at home.  I started with the whites of six eggs. You can use pasturized whites if you don't want to do the whole separating, finding a use for the yolks thing.  I beat them up with some salt and pepper.   Next up, the tomato and spinach.  I used grape tomatoes, seeded them and then chopped them into 1/4" pieces. I like baby spinach, and I took about 10 leaves and chopped those up into 1/4" pieces as well. I added that to the egg mixture.  When you pour it into the pans, be sure that it all gets evenly distributed. They bake up pretty quickly, around 9 minutes or so.  Dunkin gives you two egg bites, the mini donut serving size is three. I pop them in ziplocs in the fridge and just pull a bag and reheat them in the microw...

Stuffed Waffles

I wasn't sure I was going to blog these stuffed waffles since it was the first time I tried using the new iron but since I'd already taken the pics as I went I figured, why not? They aren't perfect but they are delicious! I'd seen videos floating around TikTok and Instagram of people making stuffed waffles so I hopped over to Amazon and ordered the Elite Gourmet version.  The instructions were fairly straightforward but there was no recipe so I made up a batch of Classic Waffle batter. Then I scoured the fridge for things to stuff them with.    First up, some leftover taco meat from the previous night and Fiesta blend cheese,  pepperoni and mozzarella cheese and lastly some strawberries and cream cheese.   For the taco stuffed I added the taco meat and cheese in the middle and then set out some salsa and sour cream to top them with.  Learning curve lesson 1- make sure your ingredients are all room temp before you start, they will bake much quicker....

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Bacon and Cheddar Omelet Bites

Since I already came up with a version of Dunkin Donuts new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites for myself, I decided to make the other variety that they are offering, Bacon & Cheddar, for my husband. Super simple.  Beat up some eggs with salt and pepper.  Add in some shredded cheddar and a slice of bacon cut into 1/4" pieces (I used kitchen shears).  Bake them for about 9 minutes in sprayed mini donut pans. They baked up light and fluffy.  The bacon stayed crisp and there's just the perfect amount of cheese.   I split them up into portions in zip top bags and that way we can just grab a bag and warm them up. My husband laughed when I told him 3 is the serving size.  I'll definitely be doubling the recipe next time!
