It’s like Groundhog’s day up in here with the number of Christmas celebrations J and I are attending.
We have his family (Christmas Eve), my immediate family (Christmas Day but no presents), and my immediate family plus relatives in from Texas (New Year’s Day with presents!).
So, at this lovely WIAW shindig, hosted by the gracious party thrower Jenn, I present to you Christmas #1:
White Chocolate Puppy Chow from Averie’s recipe for a friend’s Wine & Dessert Party
Alligator Jerky for snackage on the way to the festivities
Roasted veggies for my Christmas Eve Dinner
Hot Fudge Pudding Cake for Christmas Eve Dessert (I did not partake but I was told it was yummy … p.s. i love making desserts for non-family members because they’re too polite and will ALWAYS say it’s yummy!)
Christmas Day Lunch BBQ
Thanks for linking up my white chocolate puppy chow. I hope it was a hit at the party.
All the other food looks wonderful! Yum!
are you kidding? everyone loved it! my bf took it to his work the next day and i said it was cereal so it’s ok to eat as breakfast!

A great twist on the original.
Loving that white chocolate puppy chow!

The puppy chow looks yummy! Thanks for sharing the link!
the puppy chow IS awesome - i hope you make it because it’s so easy & a crowd pleaser!

Puppy Chow is amazing. Want to know something even more amazing? Take Cinnamon Toast Crunch and cover it in melted white chocolate, then cinnamon-spiked powdered sugar.
Trust me.
I have nothing to say about the alligator jerky. Except I kind of want some. Even as a sort-of vegan.
holy goodness of snack mix that sounds awesome. i was also thinking of taking that cookie cereal and covering it in cookie butter!

Hot fudge pudding cake?! YUM!
i know! the picture doesn’t do it justice! it was cake on top with this hot fudge-y pudding baked underneath!
>________________________________
The roasted veggies look delicious!
they were! there’s something about roasting that makes vegetables absolutely delicious! i’ve turned my whole family & bf into roasted vegetable converts!

Hot fudge pudding cake?? I’m trying just for this week to not eat desserts. Just this one week
haha, i like that you’re abstaining BEFORE new year’s resolutions!
love it!

You’re so disciplined not to partake in the cake
. But I love BBQed veggies too so that looked SUPER tempting!
i actually don’t really like cake or sweets that much so it’s no biggie not to eat it - plus i’m lactose intolerant so i was also preventing a HUGE stomach ache!

I want that puppy chow!!!
oh it’s so good & easy, too! my friends loved it!

Alligator jerky!? Sign me up. I’m loving it
And asparagus? Loads of it?
Your blog is my new best friend!
i loved that alligator! i’m on a mission to eat as many random things as possible … and well on my way! i loved the asparagus, too, unfortunately it reaked havoc on the bathroom the next day! … asparagus pee… TMI?
