SNACK
Bolder Party Mix | Melanie Makes
What separates my Bolder Party Mix from the rest of the snack mix recipe contenders? Mine has more of the good stuff! I’ve upped the flavor ante by more than tripling the amount of the typically called for seasonings to add just a little more oomph in the flavor department.

SIDE DISH
Best Rice Dressing | Diary of a Recipe Collector
The perfect side dish to barbecues and baked ham, turkey, and chicken is rice dressing! This recipe is delicious, easy, and feeds a crowd.

DESSERT
Warm Caramel Carrot Cake | Garnish & Glaze

DESSERT
Chocolate Chip Picnic Spice Cake | Little Dairy on the Prairie
I’m not sure what I love most about Chocolate Chip Picnic Spice Cake! It’s a tie between the buttermilk vanilla icing drizzled all over the warm cake that settles in every single crevice, or the crunchy brown sugar, walnunt, and chocolate chip topping!
