Lazy Irish Beer Bread – Only 3 Ingredients

You’re gonna’ love Lazy Irish Beer Bread. Great bread for St. Patricks day. It’s light and fluffy and closer to a yeast bread than a quick bread.

 

With just 3 ingredients it doesn’t get any easier!

It smells and tastes slightly of beer but so slightly that no one will know there is beer in it unless you tell them.

It’s light-textured inside, slightly crusty outside and about the same sweetness as any white yeast bread. And when it’s baking… Oh, the smell!!!

It also has some versatility to it. Try adding herbs like thyme or a pinch of rosemary. Seeds like celery seeds or caraway are great, too!

Purple Pickled Eggs Family Recipe

This Purple Pickled Eggs recipe is apparently a Pennsylvania Dutch recipe and has been in the family for a long time but I don’t know how.

 

Pickled eggs are something I ate at my Grannies house when I was growing up. So maybe the recipe was passed down on my maternal grandmother’s side of the family.

The longer the eggs sit in the brine, the darker and more flavorful they will get. Sometimes when I make them I add a few very thin slices of onion.

Pretty in Pink Pickled Eggs – Pretty and Delicious

Pretty in Pink Pickled Eggs are very similar to a recipe grandma made when I was little and I loved them. Delicious with a little heat!

 

These eggs are such a pretty color when they’re done and although they look nice they’re very spicy and bite you back when you bite into them!

They get their gorgeous color from the beets which are delish too. The onion rings can be used to garnish a salad as well.

Heck, use all the goodies from the jar; you just can’t go wrong with this one.

Make a great egg salad-a little mayo and sweet pickles-on wheat crackers!

They’re quite pretty sliced over a salad or as an appetizer on the buffet table or just eat the yummy things for no other reason than the fact that you want a cute, spicy, pickled egg!
