The Organized Life, January Paint Bucket
Yay! We made it!! Happy 2021!!
This month we’re going to put an American twist
on recipes inspired by cuisines from all over the world,
and also lighten them up and make them healthier…
The flavor/theme of the month for January is
International
Appetizers
Artichoke Aoili Pizza, original recipe
Bacon Asparagus Brie Bites from Delish
Italian Sausage Meatballs from Happier than a Pig in Mud
Long Boy Burger Bites from Plain Chicken
Sides
Japanese Zucchini & Onions from Allrecipes
Irish Pub Nacho Potatoes from A Wicked Whisk
Thai Peanut Salad from Seeking Good Eats
Vegetable Egg Roll Skillet from Skinny Ms
Main Dish
Chili Pot Pies with Cornbread Crust from Sweet Peas and Saffron
Florentine Mushroom Gnoochi from HHjr
French Onion Chicken Lasagna Roll ups from How Sweet Eats

Biscuit Beignets with Praline Sauce from Kevin and Amanda
Here’s what I made from the December Paint Bucket
The flavor/theme of the month was White Chocolate Peppermint
I didn’t get a chance to make Pizza Wreath from Food Network
but HHjr made a delicious Evergreen Pastry Tree
You can use the tree shape all winter long,
or shape the dough into a wreath or any shape you want~
Also included in the post are several filling variations,
both savory and sweet!
I shared an original recipe, Club Sub Spirals
which are great for lunch, dinner and football watching
Snowball Party Mix from A Spicy Perspective turned into Reindeer Food,
a perfect party favor for the kids on Christmas Eve
Christmas Salad from Small Town Woman was the inspiration for
Holiday Salad with Bacon Asparagus Wrapped Croutons
The Bacon Wrapped Asparagus make a great appetizer too
Instead of Vermont Cheddar and Rosemary Scones from The New Vintage Kitchen,
{which sound amazing and I still want to make them!}
I made an old Southern Favorite
Melt in Your Mouth Magic Biscuits
Slow Cooker Mongolian Chicken from Slow Cooking Perfected
reminded me of a long time favorite at my house
Rock Star Short Ribs, the easiest dinner you’ll ever make!
For an easy and satisfying weeknight supper
I re-shared this from the Painted Apron archives
Sheet Pan Sausage & Marinara Sandwiches
Chocolate Peppermint Bundt Cake from Tastes Better From Scratch
inspired me to make
Chocolate Cake with Peppermint Snow
I made my own easy version of Peppermint White Hot Chocolate from Gimme Some Oven
Peppermint White Hot Chocolate
And here we go, onto 2021!
