My Pinterest Thankgiving

I LOVE PINTEREST. And I'm not afraid to tell you. I pin and pin and pin, but do I really make that stuff? I did a few for Thankgiving and took pictures to share! Here are the potato skins/wedges I made. I put a piece of butter on each slice under the cheese and didn't put the bacon on until they were finished baking. They were seriously delicious and duh, super easy.

Next up, cupcake teepees. Seriously adorable, definitely not easy to make them stand up. I should have taken pictures of that... I tried with the round tin she suggested, but it wasn't working for me, so I ended up using a muffin tin and use a hell of a lot of tin foil to make them stand up while baking. It was a big mess early Thanksgiving morning. Thankfully, we only lost 3 in the baking process. They are super cute if you ask me, and pretty damn yummy, too.

And finally, these were supposed to be snackable acorns. But I used pretzels because cookies don't go over very well in my house (with anyone else but me). I think they were probably way more delicious with the nutterbutters. These were okay.
I also made the "best broccoli you've ever tasted." Quite honestly, it wasn't anything to write home about. I'd probably make it again, because it's different than steamed broccoli and just as tasty, but I couldn't see having this in replace of a steak as she was saying in the blog... It was good, but not THAT good.

Happy pinning everyone!

  1. yummy!!! I am just sorry I missed it all! The broccoli sounds great. I always steam mine with lemon juice/zest...it really makes the flavor pop!
