It’s time for Karen’s Killer Fixin’s! Over the years, I’ve filled two 4-inch, 3-ring binders with my own creations as well as recipes my family and friends were willing to share with me. I simply love to cook and want to share that love with my readers.
So every Friday, I share one recipe I think you and your family might enjoy. It might be a main course recipe. A cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes my eye and fancy…which today is PUPPY CHOW.
Despite its name, this snack is NOT for the dogs! <g> As we approach the holiday season, it’s always nice to have a supply of snacks on hand for when those last minute holiday guests stop in for some eggnog. This is a great sweet snack and easy to make. Just be sure to make at least two batches because it will disappear faster than you can say, “The dog’s just snatched the turkey off the table!”
All kidding aside, just a friendly reminder: Keep your dogs and cats healthy this holiday season. Don’t allow them access to chocolates and nuts and other
goodies we all love because many of these flavors, like chocolate, are toxic to our pets!
I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s.
Happy eating!
Karen
