Pagans: Happy Lughnasad/Lammas/First harvest!-- any good holiday recipes?
Sabbat blessings everyone. I'm planning this weekend's holiday feast & have a full house and trying to think of something different or interesting.
We do brunch in the morning and skip lunch so I wanted to make appetizers... I've got a lot of eggs in the fridge so I was thinking baby veggie quiches? I've also got some black beans I made yesterday, so I was going to make a dip to serve with salsa and corn chips. Oh, and honey & apples are a must for the kids.
I'm not sold yet, and we have a big family with different tastes, so any ideas?
Dinner's covered, as shepherds pie with some fresh garden salad, baked home-made herbal breads and home-churned herbal butters is our tradition. Yum I haven't eaten today so thinking about it is making me hungry. For dessert the kids are making almond cookies with a pentacle press.
I was also thinking maybe a peach pie? Or maybe vanilla ice cream with grilled peaches over it? Something with seasonal fruit.
Any ideas for a non-alcoholic punch or soft drink? I'll be making mango & strawberry margaritas for the adults but wanted something special for the kids.
I have to go shopping in a couple of hours, any ideas would be great.
Thanks and enjoy your holiday.
Fireball: Happy August Eve!
Slave: Roast llamas on Lammas... yum.
Bonger: I harvest all my apples at Publix... I live too far south, they aren't locally grown.
Val: love the hat. Cranberry jam... on cornmuffins. MMmmm that might do for breakfast.
Praire: Thank you-- I've been Wiccan too long to let anyone bother me. Rolls off my back. Blessings to you and yours as well.
Sarah: Oh, that punch is sold! Good one!
Witchy Mel: Heck, jump on a broomstick and fly on over. I'll keep a dish warm for you.
Thanks everyone, have a great holiday weekend!
