Soda bread is bread that is leavened with baking soda instead of the yeast. This bread was first found in Ireland in the 1830’s, and continued to be a staple in the community mainly as a practical necessity.

SALADS IN A JAR
Spring into spring with this simple salad refresh!
I think of salads as having six main ingredients. The first two are always leafy greens and sliced Persian cucumbers, but the other four can be almost anything you want!
Also, here’s a tip to make life a little easier…Whenever you make a salad, get a few 1-quart mason jars and fill them with the contents of the salad for you to enjoy later, making sure that the wettest ingredients are at the bottom of the jar. Here are two of my favorite salad combinations in a large bowl size as well as quantities for filling a mason jar.
Hope you enjoy!
RUSTIC APPLE TART
Raise your hand if you’re intimidated to make an apple pie!
Don’t worry, apple pies intimidate me too! Did you know there is a simplified way you can make almost any fruit pie? It’s called a galette, although I prefer calling it a “Rustic Pie”. Rustic means plain and simple so making a pie that tastes incredible but that is “plain and simple” to make, should take some of the intimidation away. Try it! And let me know how it goes.
Hope you enjoy!
