Fri-yay calls for savory croissants! 🥐
.
BLOG —> https://sliceofjess.com/cranberry-feta-goat-cheese-and-pistachio-croissants/
.
INGREDIENTS:
1 Sheet Puff Pastry, thawed
2 tbsp. Honey
2 tsp. Olive Oil
¼ cup Whole Honey Roasted Pistachios
2 oz. Crumbled Goat Cheese
2 oz. Crumbled Feta
⅓ cup Dried Cranberries
1 Egg + 1 tbsp. Water, lightly beaten
Dash of Powdered Sugar, for garnish
A little Pink Himalayan Salt, for garnish
.
DIRECTIONS:
1. First, thaw the puff pastry in the refrigerator. Once thawed, roll out onto a cutting board. Next, evenly cut the puff pastry sheet along the lines. This will leave you with three even pieces.
2. Cut each piece diagonally, creating triangle shapes. This will give you 6 triangles.
3. Mix the honey and olive oil. Layer the inside of each triangle with the mix. This will help the additional ingredients stick.
4. Layer each triangle with crushed pistachios, feta, goat cheese, and dried cranberries. Making sure to leave a little bit of the crushed pistachios left for the final layer.
5. Roll the stuffed croissant by starting with the larger side of the triangle.
6. Some ingredients might fall out. That’s ok! Just tuck them into the sides once you have rolled them into the croissant shape.
7. Mix together the egg and water. Brush each croissant with the mix, then lightly sprinkle the tops with pistachios. This is optional, but makes them prettier.
8. Bake in a 350F preheated oven for 25 minutes on a lined baking sheet.
9. Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Decorate each with desired amount of powdered sugar and a light dusting of salt. Enjoy immediately.

This Homemade Mac & Cheese has a whopping 30 grams of protein per serving! In my blog I list every ingredient that I grabbed from my local @earthfare to make this happen. So creamy, dreamy, and family-dinner friendly!

FOR THE HOMEMADE MAC AND CHEESE:

1 cup Crushed Butter Crackers
½ cup Grated Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp. Melted Butter
.
DIRECTIONS:
1. Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a large stockpot. Once boiling, add the dried pasta and continue to boil until al dente according to packaged directions (this time will vary by shape).
2. Once al dente - DO NOT DRAIN - add the whipped cottage cheese, garlic powder, sharp cheddar, gruyere, optional goat cheese, and Greek yogurt. Mix together, taste, and add salt + pepper per your preference.
3. If you’d like... the mac and cheese is ready from here. However, if you want to bake it, go ahead and preheat your oven to 400F.

INGREDIENTS:
• 2 cups Shredded Cheese

2. Grab a non-stick 12-cup muffin tin. Fill each cup with a big pinch of shredded cheese. Top each cheese cup with two or three dill pickle chips. Next you’ll sprinkle on your favorite seasoning blend into each cup and top with more cheese to cover the pickles.

4. OPTIONAL: After they have baked, removed each cheesy pickle chip from the muffin tin and place them in the air fryer at 400F for 5 minutes for extra crisp.

A few years ago I used to make sourdough loaves for my family and neighbors on the regular. Been thinking about getting back into it again. I’m not a baker but I loved baking bread. The smells remind me of my early teens, as we had a bread maker that my dad would set overnight and I’d wake up to savory warm smells in the morning. My own bread making days were in a Dutch oven, but I also have a bread maker I should try to utilize from time to time. Do you all like baking your own bread at home? Do you want to learn about my sourdough recipe? Let me know! Happy Sunday! Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend.
