The Weekend Dish: 1/6/2024
Hello to the first weekend of 2024!
This holiday season just absolutely flew by and I feel like I’m still playing a bit of catch up in terms of getting back to regular life. How will you be enjoying your weekend? I was hoping we’d get a wonderful snow storm, but it looks like the big snow is going to miss us.

What I Bookmarked This Week
Love this very different spin on brie for a fabulous appetizer >> Whipped Brie with Rosemary Maple Bacon
I made this creamy pasta dish (mine was creamier than the pictures looks!) for dinner this week and it was super easy and delicious. I left out the Italian seasoning.
Talk about melted cheese goodness >> Baked Gruyere in Pastry with Rosemary and Garlic
I’ve never seen cinnamon rolls rolled like this and honestly, it seems pretty genius and like a much better technique!
Big Mac sliders, yes please!
Have a delicious weekend!
Any chance we get the shortcut back for The Weekend Dish? I’d like to be able to access it without from the website and not from an email?
The issue hasn’t been acknowledged despite many people commenting on the link’s absence for over a month… at least.
Either announce this content requires an email address to access or put the shortcut back. But to make content difficult and frustrating to find is perplexing and then to just ignore repeated questions about it is baffling. :(
If you click on the search function at the top right and search for weekend dish, it will come up.
Hi Elizabeth, I’ve been having some issues with that shortcut (as well as a couple of others); the easiest way to see it is to bookmark the following page and check back on Saturdays: https://www.browneyedbaker.com/the-weekend-dish/ (that will show all weekend dish posts) or to sign up for my newsletter; you will receive it in your inbox every Saturday. You can sign up here >> https://www.browneyedbaker.com/instant-updates/
I apologize for the inconvenience and hope that helps!
I recently started managing cutting cinnamon rolls the way it is pictured here.
It is so much less messy and the rolls are perfectly shaped.
I was interested in one of the Instagram comments about putting a tray of water under the pan so the rolls steam in the oven as they bake. I can’t wait to try this technique…a great reason to make sweet rolls very soon!
