Easy Bisqusteaz Belgian Waffles

The best Belgian Waffle recipe I’ve ever had. This recipe simply mixes 1 part Bisquick & 1 part Krusteaz Waffle mix together with a couple added ingredients.

Belgian Endive With Roquefort Dressing

This is from my 365 Ways to Cook Vegetarian cookbook. Posting for ZWT3. “French tradition warrants that this salad be served on Christmas or New Year’s Eve in French homes… The slightly bitter taste of the tear-shaped Belgian endive marries itself well with Roquefort cheese and a strong-flavored vinaigrette. To clean endives, wipe them with a damp cloth. Don’t soak them, since they tend to absorb water.”

Red Light Cocktail

This cocktail owes its cheeky name to its sexy scarlet color and its naughty alcohol content, with splashes of both jenever (Dutch gin) and orange liqueur. Calling jenever Dutch gin is a retronym, but I’ve done so purely for clarity. After all, gin originated in Holland. Genever was introduced to England by King William III, who was a Prince of Orange (the Dutch Royal Family) by birth, before he became the King of England. The British, with their love of abbreviations, changed the name jenever to gin. (There are many brands of Dutch gin, but the most common for Americans is probably the Ketel brand.) Taken from dutchfood.about.com and posted for ZWT.
