LEMON HUMMUS with ROSEMARY PITA CHIPS

May 4, 2019 by Sarah Baade 3 Comments


I’m an introvert… most of the time. We all have our moments of being outgoing, right? I have no problem taking charge during appointments at work. I can lead a camp song like I was born to do it. Even public speaking doesn’t bother me much. Growing up though, I was a painfully shy child. I can remember hiding behind my parents’ legs or behind furniture just to avoid interacting with people. Even now, my natural instinct is to cuddle up at home and watch a movie or spend time with my family. But life really is about balance. I have extrovert friends who I know I can call at the last minute when I really want to get out and do something. I don’t think those friends even realize how much they help me to break out of my routine and reach for my goals.

A few months ago, I heard about a new group here in San Antonio called Florecer Femme.  This is really a community of women who support and encourage one another to flourish and become strong female leads of their own lives.  When I saw they were having a launch event last November, I immediately knew that I wanted to go. I connected with one of my extrovert friends and we purchased our tickets to attend the event. Then it happened, my friend ended up not being available to go with me. The introvert in me panicked a little bit and made up excuses for not going alone. I ultimately channeled the outgoing side of my personality and boldly walked through the doors of that event all on my own. I’m not saying networking in a room full of people who brought their own friends was easy but it was definitely doable and it formed some relationships. Here I am, six months later, creating light refreshments for the latest Florecer Femme event.  I hope that my own experience can give you courage to walk confidently into whatever might be intimidating you and take charge of your own path. Make those connects, start that project, ask for that promotion. However you are looking to grow, I believe you are capable!


For the Florecer Femme event, I served Lemon Hummus with Rosemary Pita Chips (seen below), Rainbow Fruit Salad, and Honey Date Nut Bars. If you have tried these recipes, I’d love to hear from you! You can comment below or tag me on Instagram @sliceofhoney #sliceofhoney.

Tips:

  • If you don’t have a food processor, you can blend the hummus in a blender just don’t go overboard or you’ll liquefy it.
  • For the pita chips, you can use dried or fresh rosemary. If using dried, you’ll want to add a little extra to make sure you get the full flavor of the herb.

BRUNCH MADE EASY

April 19, 2019 by Sarah Baade Leave a Comment

Hello brunch season! Easter. Mother’s Day. Father’s Day. Bridal showers. Baby showers. Brunch season is most definitely upon us. First and foremost, I love brunch because of the food. You can combine your favorite breakfast items with your favorite sweets and cocktails (or mocktails). But I also love that brunch is such a laid back, relaxing meal to share with loved ones. There is almost an assumption that people will graze on the spread of delightful dishes as they spend quality time catching up with one another. Fellowship.

Let’s spend our brunch season focusing on exactly that, fellowship. I’ve gathered some of my favorite recipes to make meal prep as easy as possible. In fact, the majority of what I’ve selected can be made a day or two in advance. I’d love to hear about your brunch adventures! Feel free to comment below or reach out to me on instagram!

Quiche and potatoes are about as traditional as you can get with brunch. This Broccoli Cheese Quiche with Sweet Potato Hash will help you keep that tradition alive



These Savory Spinach Turnovers look impressive, as if you’d spent all day making them but they’re actually ridiculously easy to make. I like to make them a day ahead and then warm them slightly when I’m ready to serve them.



Vibrant colors and flavors make this Rainbow Fruit Salad a huge crowd pleaser. Berries, peaches, kiwi, etc. How could you resist?


Feel free to customize this Vanilla Almond Granola or keep it as it is. Either way, it would be delicious served over yogurt.



This recipe is the first one I ever posted on my blog, it is also from my grandmother’s recipe box. Aside from being sentimental about these Farm-Style Biscuits, they are a favorite because they don’t require yeast. No yeast means they are super easy to make!



I created a few different mocktails for this post but the Sober Sangria is my absolute favorite. You can mix it up the night before so you’ll be ready to start filling glasses as soon as your guests arrive.
The bright lemon flavor of these Lemon Iced Ginger Cookies will have everyone reaching for more.
