With Christmas right round the corner, it shouldn’t be any surprise that Moms have longs lists of people to bake and cook goodies for.
I, personally, have not been big on baking or cooking till last year when a little spark of interest was kindled. Since then I love whipping up culinary goodies of any shape, size or form and sharing it with anyone that crosses my path! (Yes, even the stove repairman has not been spared!)
While I love cooking and baking, I don’t (underline, stress on the word, put it in caps!) like cleaning up. I guess that’s why I’m such a huge fan of Handi-foil‘s convenient, recyclable, use and throw pans for more reasons than one…
1. They’re easy to use
2. Clean up is super easy (Hello trash can!) and
3. I don’t have to worry about politely asking friends for casseroles or baking dishes , after leaving food in the same for them!!
And with my baking and cooking plans this Christmas, the last thing I want need to worry about is clean up and keeping track of where my dishes/platters went!
So, what’s been happening in the kitchen?
Oh quite a bit, so far, considering we’re still about 12 days away from Christmas.
Trays filled with pasta goodness and whole wheat berry muffins did their rounds this past week…
And yesterday morning I decided to play around with a few recipes and put together what I like to call a…
Healthy Holiday Medley Bread.
And since I planned to share a loaf with a very sweet family we know, I pulled out my Handi-foil Loaf Pans without a second thought!

After lightly greasing the pans, I poured in the batter and waited as my oven did its thing!

The loaves baked perfectly and I admit, I did ravenously slice off a chunk before waiting for it to cool. (I promise I did wait for the rest to cool to slice with a little more dignity!)
Oh and did I mention, I did all my mixing using my spanking new KitchenAid mixer?
Am definitely in love with it!
This Mama is now so spoiled in the kitchen!

I love the EcoFoil pans- they’re so convenient. And definitely worth using so you don’t have to worry about taking dishes to family and friends houses for the holidays.
We definitely use all those in our house, especially during the holidays!
I am with you on the love cooking not cleaning…
I would use them for all the gluten free baked goods and casseroles we make around the holiday (pumpkin bread, banana bread, lasagna, etc…)

This year I’m making a sweet bread for some neighbors, this would so solve the problem of trying to get my pans back! Or really, just super simple clean up! Definitely love this idea.
These trays make holiday cooking look much easier!!

We like making either breads or cinnamon rolls in Handi-Foil containers for Christmas. Makes them so much easier to give out.

I’d use these for my sweet potatoes and ham that I’m taking to a relative’s house for our Christmas get-together. I also love to bake, so I’d use the others for cupcakes and bread gifts for neighbors. Thanks!
