My Java Beef Flatbread Pizza makes a quick meal you will love. Flatbreads are a nice change from doughy type pizzas.

I blended a bit of Door County Wisconsin Harvest Blend grounds with the beef, peppers and onions as it fried. The smooth flavor comes through and goes so well with tomato and mozzarella.

Today, you can use more than 100 of our naturally flavored syrups, sauces and beverage bases in coffees, sodas, teas, smoothies, cocktails and more.

We like to think those awards mean we’re doing something right. Of course, you’re a big part of this too. If you love eating our cheese as much as we love making it, then we’ll get to keep doing what we do for generations to come.

I like using pumpkin instead of oil in fall recipes. It makes using fall spices so easy.
