I toasted the marshmallows on a cookie sheet under the broiler.  Easy and you can toast them as dark as you like. Allow the marshmallow to cool slightly before placing on top of the latte. 😉

Drizzle with chocolate sauce and sprinkle on graham crumbs.

Dig in!

Beef Black Rice Casserole

If you never had black rice, you are in for a treat. This hearty rice boasts a 100 gram serving of black rice has 8.5 grams of protein, 3.5 milligrams of iron and 4.9 grams of fiber. High in vitamin E, antioxidants, anti-inflammatory properties makes black rice an excellent choice for improving your diet.
Beef is an excellent source of vitamin B12 and very good source of protein, niacin, vitamin B6, selenium, zinc and phosphorus. It is also a good source of choline, pantothenic acid, iron, potassium and vitamin B2.
I use Certified Angus Beef® Brand roasts for best results.

Beef Black Rice Casserole makes an excellent soup too. Add extra broth to reach desired consistency.

Strawberry White Hot Chocolate

Posted on January 11, 2019 by Cindy Kerschner

Strawberry White Hot Chocolate serves strawberry goodness in a creamy white chocolate drink.  A delicious way to warm up this winter.

Part of Festive Foodies Winter Warm Up Drinks series.

Strawberry White Hot Chocolate

There’s nothing more inviting than a hot, sweet drink after shoveling snow. Also it’s most inviting after breakfast, late at night, midday, midnight, with a cookie or brownie, actually anytime.

It’s also Florida Strawberry season.  My favorite berries. I’m not being sponsored, it’s just my opinion. Fresh, juicy strawberries available now through early March. A perfect time to get your strawberry on!

Strawberry White Hot Chocolate

Strawberry White Hot Chocolate is a nice change from chocolate milk hot or cold. That bit of strawberry flavor puts the sweetness at check.

This drink is made with milk, white chocolate chips, fresh strawberries and a bit of strawberry jam. That’s it.

Strawberry White Hot Chocolate

Easy. Quick. Here’s the recipe!
