Holiday Hacks
Simple seasonal solutions
(firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwired) -- 11/28/16 -- (Family Features) The air is getting cooler, leaves are changing colors and days are getting shorter. All of these seasonal changes signal that the holidays are fast approaching. While many people love gathering with family and friends at this time of the year, entertaining can take the jolly out of the holiday. This year, take the stress out of hosting with these five simple holiday hacks.
One month before your holiday gathering, buy nuts - almonds, pistachios, walnuts - in bulk. Pour the nuts into screw-top mason jars, label with brightly colored tape and store in your pantry. When guests stop by, bring out a few jars, unscrew and serve with seasonal cider.
Candy cane flakes work wonders - from holiday drinks to topping off cakes and ice cream. Crush candy canes in a blender or smash between paper towels and store in an airtight container. Simply sprinkle for seasonal ease and festive yum.
Buy flavorful refrigerated salad dressings - think sriracha or ranch - and use to top salads or potatoes, or as a quick, delicious dip. One jar offers many solutions.
Be prepared for unexpected gift-giving moments and keep several simple and affordable gifts on hand. Pour local honey into mini mason jars, wrap the neck with holiday twine and include a message that works for all, "Have a BEE-autiful Holiday."
For entertainment ease, keep versatile products on hand, like Simply Artisan Reserve , a soft, finely crumbled cheese in a shakable jar. Sprinkle the cheese on flatbreads, sliders, desserts and more - and enjoy the flavor in every bite. With just 15 minutes of prep, you can make a seasonal dessert that looks like you spent all day in the kitchen.
