I am so excited that we are kicking off #BrunchWeek today. It is one of my favorite community blogger events and this is my 4th year getting a chance to play with some of my favorite food bloggers. Who doesn’t love brunch, right? This year’s #BrunchWeek has some new sponsors including Michigan Asparagus. So, to kick it off, I knew I wanted to incorporate some delicious spring asparagus in my recipe. To go with, I wanted to also make sure to add a bit of cheese (my fridge is packed with Cabot cheese for days – I love using it in recipes). I was marinating on ideas for brunch that I haven’t tried here before and I have been obsessed with the flavors of spinach and artichoke lately. I thought – what if we take that combo and add some crisp spring asparagus and sharp cheddar cheese and bake it in a perfect breakfast casserole. A few tinkerings with this recipe and this Spinach Artichoke and Asparagus Strata is ready for the #BrunchWeek brunch table. …

December 22, 2016 By Aly Leave a Comment

For a holiday sweet treat, this rich and creamy Chocolate Swirled Peppermint Crunch Semifreddo is the perfect make-ahead dessert

Disclosure: I was sent the OXO products showcased in this post to assist with this recipe. As always, my opinion and adoration for OXO is all my own.

For the holidays, I am a firm believer on making things ahead. So many holiday dishes can be made ahead from my favorite cranberry relish to dessert and today’s recipe is one you are going to love. We will be spending the holidays at my family’s cottage so a bit of preplanning is a must. This Chocolate Swirled Peppermint Crunch Semifreddo will be the perfect sweet dessert to end the holiday meal reminiscent of a favorite holiday ice cream cake from childhood.

OXO is a brand I trust and use on the regular – both in my kitchen in Philly and at my family cottage in Connecticut. OXO sent me their Glass 1.6 Qt Loaf Baking Dish and Glass 9″ Pie Plate along with some of their favorite essential pastry tools including their SteeL Pie Server, Double Pastry Wheel and 1″ Pastry Brush with the challenge – whisk up a perfect make-ahead recipe for the holidays that can go from freezer to oven or vice versa. I accepted the challenge and put these tools to the test.
