Let go my Eggo! 🧇 Just joking. Those are homemade waffles with ….. Whipped Strawberry Butter (<--- just can't quit the strawberries). Subtly patriotic is how I do. 🍓🫐🇺🇸🫐🍓 T-minus 3 days!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How to make Whipped Strawberry Butter 🍓🧈:
1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, rinsed, hulled & finely chopped
2 Tbsp. sugar
½ Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
Place strawberries with sugar and lemon juice in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring mixture to a boil, then lower heat. Allow strawberries to simmer for 10 minutes. Allow strawberry mixture to cool.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, whip softened butter until pale and fluffy. Add cooled strawberry mixture to butter, and whip until well combined.
Makes 4 servings.

Santa Claus has come to town! 🎅 Not "that" Sant

Santa Claus has come to town! 🎅 Not "that" Santa Claus, the Santa Claus melon. 🍈 #AD I found the most unique varieties of melons while at @Sprouts, my go-to source for specialty produce, including a melon named the Santa Claus! 😂 *Head to the blog for more info about where the name comes from, but in the meantime, feast your eyes on these Frozen Melon Agua Fresca Mocktails. 🍹 Similar in taste to the honeydew, you'll need only 4 ingredients to be well on your way to enjoying this refreshing and delicious beverage. Perfect for Father's Day this weekend! 🍈 🙌 🍈
***You'll need****
• 1 medium Santa Claus melon, cut into cubes (about 3 cups). • 2 cups cold coconut water
• 2 limes, juiced
• 1/2 cup 100% blue agave syrup
• Ice
1. Cut the melon in half and remove the seeds. Cut into slices. Use knife to slice underneath, right above the rind, and then cut into cubes.
2. Add 3 cups of melon cubes, 2 cups cold coconut water, the juice of two limes and 1/2 cup agave syrup to the blender. Blend until smooth and no melon chunks remain.
3. Strain through a fine mesh strainer and discard the melon pulp. At this point, you could serve over ice for a refreshing agua fresca or proceed to creating a batch of frozen mocktails. 4. Rinse the blender and return the melon mixture back to the blender. Add 3-4 cups of ice, depending on desired consistency. Serve with a melon ball, slice of lime, and sprig of mint; if desired.

Voila! You're all set. Cheers for making it to Friday!
