Chocolate Buttermilk Quick Bread #BreadBakers

Chocolate Buttermilk Bread
Chocolate Buttermilk Quick Bread iced or not will become your new favorite chocolaty treat! That’s a big claim considering this post is packed with delicious chocolate inspired breads!
March #BreadBakers is all about a double dose of comfort. You guessed it, bread AND chocolate!

There are times I seek out comfort food. Toast spread with chocolate works.

But chocolate IN the bread, well that is ultimate comfort, right?

So how could I pass on the Bread Bakers challenge for March? Use cacao, cocoa or carob in any form – powder or chocolate, as a filling, topping or in the dough!

Easy Chocolate Buttermilk Quick Bread blends the richness of buttermilk with dark cocoa for a satisfying chocolate experience. Drizzle glaze over top and sprinkle with mini chocolate chips. Guilty pleasure for sure!

Turnip Rutabaga and Root Veggie Beef Stew #SundaySupper

Turnip Rutabaga Root Vegetable Beef Stew

Root Vegetables. Can You dig it?

I’m super excited to see root vegetables get their own event! I’m rooting for those veggies that grow underground! All time favorites like potatoes, carrots and onions. Lesser known mainstays like turnips, parsnips and rutabagas are represented too!
I spent many years as a Master Gardener through Penn State. One of my greatest joys was watching children “dig” for dinner. I would fill a large sandbox with sand, potatoes, turnips, onions, carrots, radishes and let the kids dig and collect vegetables for our pretend soup. Some kids would be amazed when they realized these veggies they love grew underground!

We would sample everything from carrot juice to potato candy!

If you carrot all, you can’t beet root vegetables for color, taste and texture! 😉

Turnip Rutabaga and Root Veggie Beef Stew blends tender beef with root vegetables creating a savory broth. This stew is rounded out with fresh kale, spinach and a bit of red wine.
