A Disney Christopher Robin Friendsgiving + Honey Glazed Salmon Recipe

Bring home Disney’s Christopher Robin on November 6th & Plan a Christopher Robin Friendsgiving

     

From the moment I first saw previews for Disney’s Christopher Robin, I knew this was one movie that I just had to take the kids to see. We loved it so much we saw it in theaters twice and we have slowly been waiting for the DVD release so we can watch it over and over again. Thankfully, we don’t have to wait much longer as Christopher Robin will be out on Blu-Ray / DVD Tuesday, November 6th. My friend’s at Disney Studios send me some goodies so that we could have a Christopher Robin Friendsgivng party to celebrate the release. Naturally I had to put these goodies to good use. I was inspired by one delicious recipes in the honey cookbook and immediately knew what recipe I was making for my Friendsgiving celebration – a simple but oh so delicious Honey Glazed Salmon.

Keto Friendly Tuna Stuffed Avocados

Trying to maintain a healthy diet and finding meals that I don’t get tired of quickly can be somewhat of a challenge. Especially at lunch time. Now that I’m trying out this Keto diet thing, it’s even a bit more challenging. I’m still new to the Keto lifestyle (only a week in) but I’m trying to make it easy on myself so I’m more likely to stick to the plan and not cave the minute things get hectic over here. I want something that is delicious and filling and easy to make. One of my go-to lunches even before I started Keto, was tuna salad stuffed avocados. They’re delicious, full of amazing flavor and they keep me full until dinner so I don’t end up snacking. So I just tweaked my recipe a bit and made them Keto Friendly Tuna Stuffed Avocados.

This Asian Style Spicy Potsticker Soup is a hearty soup full of rich flavor. It’s perfect on a cold night or a delicious way to celebrate Chinese New Year.

Spicy Potsticker Soup

I’m all for shortcuts in the kitchen. Dinner that taste like I spent hours cooking them but are ready in under 30 minutes are staples in my house. I just don’t have more time than that to spend in the kitchen. Life is busy and finding time to cook can be overwhelming sometimes. Soups are a family favorite because they are hearty, kids love them and on these cold days here in New Jersey, they’re comforting. With the Chinese New Year approaching, I wanted to make a soup with one of our favorite foods – chicken potstickers. They’re delicious by themselves but even better in this Spicy Potsticker Soup.

  • #ad I love to bake and create in the kitchen. Especially during the holidays. Growing up, I remember my mom and aunts always being in the kitchen whipping up something delicious at every party and family get together. Now it’s my turn. I’m the one in the kitchen whipping up delicious treats while my kids are running in to help or help sample the desserts. One treat I look forward to this time of year is a delicious glass of Coquito. If you’ve never had it or heard of it, it’s a Puerto Rican Coconut Nog. Think of it like an eggnog type drink without eggs and made with coconut and NESTLÉ® LA LECHERA® Sweetened Condensed Milk instead). It’s delicious but with the addition of rum, it’s not something the littles can enjoy. So I make it without the rum so everyone can enjoy it. But I also love to use La Lechera in other recipes, like these Spice Cupcakes with Coquito Whipped Cream. Y’all this is SO good! When I first made these, everyone devoured them in minutes. Now it’s one of my most requested holiday recipes! La Lechera is the perfect ingredient when I want to get creative in the kitchen and whip up special treats like this Coquito Whipped Cream. Truthfully, this time of year, I’m using the homemade Coquito Whipped Cream on everything! It’s amazing on a class of NESTLÉ® ABUELITA Hot Chocolate too! After a cold day, this might be my favorite way to warm up! All you need is 1 pint of heavy whipping cream, 1/2 cup of Coquito made with La Lechera Sweetened Condensed milk (grab the recipe on my blog) and 3/4 confectioners sugar. Chill your bowl in the fridge for 15-30 minutes before you start making your whipped cream. Once it’s chilled, add in whipping cream, Coquito and using the whipping attachment on your mixer, mix on high for 3-5 minutes. Once it starts to thicken, add in confectioners sugar and beat on high another 3-5 minutes or until stiff peaks form. Spoon whipped cream into a pipping bag and pipe on top of hot chocolate, cupcakes, use it to frost a cake or eat it right from a spoon! Sprinkle with cinnamon and serve! You can find everything you need, including the @lalecherausa right at your local @Walmart! • • • • • #baking #homemade #recipes

  • #ad After a busy day, there’s nothing I want more than to sit down to a relaxing dinner with the family. The reality is that I don’t always want to cook that meal.

The homemade taste means it’s a dinner my whole family will love and less time cooking in the kitchen means I can focus on creating memories with the ones who mean the most.

Michael Angelo's doesn't make any compromises, and they don't use artificial preservatives, flavors or colors for full, vibrant, homemade tastes in every bite. These easy, family-favorite and single-serve meals are ready in minutes. They pair perfectly with a fresh salad and some homemade garlic bread. Grab a loaf of bread, some butter and fresh garlic. Spread onto bread and place under broiler for 3-5 minutes. Find these Michael Angelo's Meals in the freezer section of Walmart and take the stress out of dinner time so you can relax and enjoy the moments that matter most. #KitchenCraftedItalian
  • Have you ever stayed at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa? This was our first time staying here and OMG I’ve been missing out all these years. Not only was this resort stunning, but the food was superb, the location on Bay Lake makes it a great spot for fishing and it’s on the Monorail. I’ve been spoiled and I don’t know how I’ll stay anywhere else when visiting Disney now! • • • • • • #disneyhosted #WDWResorts #disneysmmc #verymerry #disneyholidays #grandfloridian #anewdawnntravels #disneydream #travel #wanderlust #wanderlusting #familytravel #traveldiaries #traveldiary #travelblogger #bahamas #mytravelgram #mytripmyadventure #disneylife #disneygram #igdisney #disneyig #disneysea #disneyside #disneymom
