More 4th of July Recipes!
Happy 4th of July Everybody!
We are in the heart of summer in the Midwest and my very favorite holiday is almost here! I love spending time in the sun, especially near the water, and entertaining family and friends. You create the best memories when you are all together on a beautiful 4th of July afternoon watching boat parades on lake and playing back yard games.
This year I decided I don’t want to be caught up in the kitchen on the 4th of July because I don’t want to miss all the fun that’s going on outside. So, I came up with some easy and tasty ideas that I want to share with you so that you can enjoy the fun happening in your own back yard!
Let’s get started… I decided this year that I’m finding recipes that I can make in advance that are also quick and easy. First step is the entrée! I’m going to serve Country Style BBQ Rib Sandwiches. I wanted the ribs to be so tender they would just fall apart, and I succeed! You can go boneless in this recipe but with the bone-in you get so much more flavor. And with only 3 ingredients to make the ribs, it doesn’t get much easier than that! Grab some dollar buns from any of our Bakeries and coleslaw from our Deli bringing the ingredient list up to only 5. I call that a win!
Next up, I wanted to prepare an appetizer to share. For all you Buffalo Wing lovers this recipe is going to blow you away! This Layered Top The Tater Buffalo Dip is perfect to make the day before and keep chilled until you’re ready to serve. Serve with some crackers and celery and you’re ready to go. You can even get the celery pre-cut in our produce departments!
Now I always like to have some kind of special drink for my guests on the 4th of July and I wanted to really play up the 4th of July theme… so, I got a little creative this year! I decided to do a layered drink and tie in the Red, White and Blue colors. This drink is called the All American and it tastes as good as it looks! Plus, it’s also really fun to make! I wanted to use a taller glass when serving these drinks, so I doubled the recipe. You can use a shorter glass when preparing these drinks too!
Now to garnish the drinks all I did was take a Kemps All American Popsicle and put it right in there! What better way to celebrate the 4th of July? They’re red white and blue, they make a great garnish for this fun drink, plus, they’re awesome for the kids and a cool treat on those hot summer months!
Have a great and safe 4th of July family and friends celebration and we will see you soon!

Memorial Day Entertaining
Hello Everybody!
It’s Memorial Day Weekend and this is the kick off to summer! This is the weekend that the cabins are opened, camping starts and we are entertaining our family and friends.
The weather isn’t always the greatest this weekend, so you kind of have to play it by ear. That’s why I try to come up with food that you can grill outside of the weather is great or you can also make inside if Mother Nature isn’t playing nice! I can hardly wait to make these recipes again. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Cuban Sliders
This time I have a Cuban Slider Recipe that I went crazy for the first bite I had. It makes several servings making it great for bigger get togethers. Plus, it is super quick and easy to make, so you’re spending time with your guests instead of in your kitchen!
I had a Cuban Sandwich about a year ago for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it. When I saw this recipe for sliders I knew I just had to try it. I will be making this recipe several times throughout the summer because it is just that good.
Fresh Summer Salsa
Next, I make this Summer Salsa Recipe every time I’m at the cabin entertaining because my guests absolutely love it and request it every time they come over. I can promise you that there are no left overs and your guests will be happy! It goes great with basically anything and it is even better when the fresh vegetables come from your garden later in the season. Swap the Pineapple with Mango if you prefer, or toss a little of both in for an added twist!
We also don’t have all the time in the world like we want, so when I’m short of time I stop into anyone of our Deli Departments. They have a wide variety of salads, smoked beans and fruit salads that go great with any meal!
Have a Great Memorial Day weekend and enjoy the kickoff to summer! We waited a long time for warm weather so let’s enjoy it with family and friends!

Happy Easter!
Happy Easter!
Jayne
Only one wish… let the snow be gone! It’s been a long winter and I’m really looking forward to those beautiful spring days, the smell of fresh grass in the air and those beautiful tulips. Easter is fast approaching and I’m trying some new recipes this year for my Easter meal. I want to share those with you and let you know how easy they are to prepare.
Let’s start with the appetizer. We all know once Easter is here we have so many of those hard-boiled eggs and we are looking for ways to use them up and not waste them. One of my favorite appetizers is Deviled Eggs and I decided to spice things up and make them a little more exciting. You gotta try this recipe… you’ll never go back to regular, boring Deviled Eggs again! 
Now let’s move on to the main entrée, the ham!! If you haven’t already make sure to check out our Four Brothers Ham because the flavor is unbelievable. When I’m getting it ready I just can’t help but slice a piece off before I place it in the oven because I can’t resist sampling. Now what’s a ham without a sweet and savory glaze drizzled over it? Every year I try a different recipe and each year I say it’s my favorite. This year I found this Apricot Glazed Ham recipe and again I have to say it’s my favorite.
When my family has ham it’s a must that we have some kind of potatoes so here is a recipe that’s so cheesy you can’t stop eating it. I have made this Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes recipe several times and I’ve used the cheese sauce over fresh broccoli or cauliflower too, so the sauce is very versatile!
Don’t forget to use Crystal Farms Shredded Cheese in this recipe! And while you’re at it, they’re also giving away a $100 gift card so you can buy everything you need to make these Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes for Easter this year and more! For your chance to win, enter here!
Last but not least I always need a vegetable because no only is it so healthy for you but it brings color into your meal. This year I found a new recipe for Candied Carrots and it really is like eating candy. It’s amazing!!!
Now the best part, the goodies!!! Make sure to stop into any one of our Bakery Departments because I am so excited to introduce new items for your Easter Dessert. We have several flavors of cream cakes and I think the best are the Pistachio Bars. For the kid’s we now have Unicorn Cookies which they will just love. Don’t forget to check out our new Upside-Down Pineapple Cake and our Easter Cupcakes too!
Have an AWESOME Easter and enjoy your holiday together with family and friends!

Valentine’s Day
Happy Valentine’s Day!
It’s the perfect day to show your loved ones how much you care by sending a card or flowers or just making a nice romantic meal at home. I usually try to make something easy because I don’t want to spend the entire night cooking. I’d much rather spend it enjoying each other’s company! So, I found a recipe that I thought would be perfect for the evening because I love seafood. Each year I usually have some kind of either seafood or steak and this year I wanted to try something different so I decided to make scallops instead of the usual lobster or crab legs. This Buttery Garlic Scallops recipe I found is perfect because not only is it very easy to make but it tastes so delicious!
I always like to have a side salad with my pasta dishes, and I also wanted this to be a quick and easy recipe. I knew I hit the jackpot when I came across this Beet Salad recipe! It is so quick to put together and I just love beets! The honey and orange juice dressing adds the perfect touch of sweetness to it too.
Now all you have to do is serve a great bottle of wine with the meal to top it off. There is a newer wine called “Federalist” and it is a Zinfandel and it goes great with this meal. This is one of my all time favorite wines!
Last but not least you just have to stop into anyone of our Bakery Departments for your Valentine’s Day treats! They have so many Valentine’s Day themed goodies including sugar cookies, heart shaped cakes, giant cookies, dream bars, and more! And you can even get them personalized with custom messages or designs, just ask any of our bakery staff and they’ll help you out!
What a perfect meal for a perfect evening! Happy Valentine’s Day and enjoy!

Football Time!
Jayne
It’s time for some football and time to start planning your Big Game event! Weather it’s at your house or if it’s potluck at a friend’s house, appetizers are a must. Sometimes I think it’s more about the food than it is the football game but that’s ok, because who doesn’t love a great spread of food along with a great group of friends to have fun with?
Don’t forget to grab plenty of chips, pretzels and crackers… You definitely don’t want to run low on those during the game! And maybe a few cupcakes or cookies as well for anyone with a sweet tooth.
I’ve already started planning my menu and here are a few easy recipes that I plan on making for the game.
Mexican Buffalo Chicken Dip | Broccoli Cheese Spread | Honey Glazed Meatballs
Enjoy the game and here is hoping your favorite team wins the big one!!!

Jayne’s Holiday Appetizers
Jayne
Hello Everyone!!!
It’s the holiday season and it’s the biggest time of the year where we invite our family and friends over to celebrate with some holiday cheer. The lights are up and the smell of cinnamon and nutmeg swirl throughout the house making it so inviting. It’s also the time we really like to WOW our guests with delicious food and spirits.
Throughout the holidays everyone is so busy, and we would all love to take the time to make the fanciest foods and impress our guests but let’s face it, we just don’t always have time. So, I put together some appetizer ideas that are easy and elegant so you get that WOW from your guests and the best part is, they will think you worked all day to put them together! It will be only you and I that will know that these recipes are easy peezy!
Here is my first appetizer…
I absolutely LOVE BelGioioso Fresh Mozzarella! It’s the prefect snack, because it’s so light and has a mild flavor and such a creamy texture! There are so many things you can do with it. I got a package of Crostini’s from our Bakery Department add a slice of BelGioioso Fresh Sliced Mozzarella then I top it off with a variety of items from sweet to salty and they all taste amazing! There’s something for everyone making it perfect for Holiday gatherings. Here’s a few of ideas that I tried with my fresh Mozzarella:
- Zucchini ribbons and roasted red pepper slices
- Diced assorted fruit (Strawberry, Kiwi and Pineapple)
- Hard Salami with Pickled Asparagus
- Prosciutto slice with Green Olive Bruschetta
- Salami and chopped olives (Green or Black)
My next Appetizer is Antipasto Bites. So elegant looking but so easy to make. I found these fun skewers with a cute knot on the end that added an even more elegant look! I highly recommend the fresh basil on these as well, it really compliments the fresh mozzarella pearl very well! Again, there are so many items you can place on your skewers so get creative and add color. Don’t be afraid to mix and match items or try using different types of olives and meats to add more variety for your guests.
Now I have exciting news for the holiday!!! BelGioiso Master Cheesemakers is proud to present their newest cheese “Artigiano” which means “Artisan” in Italy. They have 3 new flavors.
- Classico – It is pleasantly nutty and sweet and perfectly aged.
- Vino Rosso – Soaked in fine Red Wine with Sweet notes & Nutty Flavor
- Aged Balsamic & Cipolline Onion – Enrobed in Balsamic Vinegar with a hint of Cipolline Onions. Slightly Sweet & Savory Flavor.
The best way to eat Artigiano is with the rind. This is where the aged Balsamic and onions soak into the cheese and create a distinctive flavor. The white dots on the rinds are calcium crystals and that is a sign of properly aged cheese. They add some pleasant crunchiness to the firm, crumbly body. I love this cheese because it’s easy to cut up into pieces and put on a fancy serving tray with some nuts or crackers for your guests to munch on.
Now clearly at any party your guests get thirsty and I have the perfect item to serve at your next party. It is so refreshing, and the flavor profile goes with anything. Kristian Regal is a healthy, non-alcoholic, all-natural, sparkling juice with no preservatives or artificial flavors. It has big flavor but not a whole lot of calories. This year for your holiday needs they have just added two new flavors to their family.
- Strawberry Apple Lemon (my absolute favorite!!!!)
- Apple Mango Passion Fruit
It’s great for the upcoming holidays, anniversaries, family reunions and the best part is, it’s great for any day of the week!
I hope you have a very safe and happy holiday and I wish you all a very Happy New Year!!!
