Our Favorite Memorial Day Recipes

I have gathered some of our favorite recipes to help you kick off the start of summer! ☀

Memorial day weekend is upon us, so I thought I would gather up some of our favorite summer cookout recipes and patriotic desserts to share with y'all. While we are enjoying the holiday weekend, let's take a moment to remember with gratitude all those who served and died for our country and freedom. I just want to say to all the past and present servicemen and woman thank you for your service. ⚑⚑  

Pineapple Upside Down Bundt Cake

Making a Pineapple Upside Down Cake just got easier with this delicious Pineapple Upside Down Bundt Cake. 🍍🍒

Today I'm sharing a delicious twist on a classic old fashioned cake. My husband's favorite cake is a 🍍Pineapple Upside Down Cake 🍒 and I make a homemade version every year for his birthday. Traditionally, I bake this cake in an iron skillet, but I found this recipe for a shortcut pineapple upside down bundt cake using a pineapple cake mix and I couldn't wait to try it. The bundt pan indentations held the pineapple slices and cherries, perfectly and when the cake was inverted it turned out so pretty. 

My Texas Table - Favorite Spring Desserts & More

Happy Saturday friends!!!  

I hope everyone is having a great weekend. It's been quite some time since publishing my last issue of My Texas Table.  Sometimes life gets in the way and then a few things get put onto the back burner. No worries though, because I have promised myself to get it together and start publishing my monthly newsletters again. I've actually missed doing it, so let's get started.  

Chocolate Chip Buttermilk Banana Bread

Easily turn classic banana bread into Chocolate Chip Buttermilk Banana Bread! If you have over ripe bananas and buttermilk to use up, definitely make this banana bread. 

I'm always on the look out to find new uses for over- ripe bananas. Muffins, smoothies, pancakes and banana bread is a few of my family's favorites. Banana bread also pairs perfectly with so many ingredients that coming up with different banana bread variations is always delicious. A few of our favorites are Blueberry Buttermilk Banana bread, Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins and Chocolate Banana bread.
