Sharon Lurie brought us some wonderful menu ideas for a Purim Seudah – I just cannot wait to try out the Persian Carpet Rides, just because I LOVE the name!

PLUS some great ideas for your mishloach manot, purim decor andpurim packaging.

Our favorites this week from around the web:

Blogeats brings us a delicious recipe for Beet Tart with Blue Cheese, Goat Cheese, and Frisee.

If you are like me, you love brownies in ANY form. These quick and easy Mississippi Mud Brownies will not disappoint. You may have to share, so be sure to make a double batch.

We came across this Sparkling Champagne and Strawberries Jello and thought it might be the perfect dessert for your Purim seudah.

Melinda brings us Cauliflower Crust Cheesy Pizza which was inspired by her sister’s Paleo diet – no grains, only proteins, fruits and veggies.

And something healthy and light but oh so delicious – Pinto beans and yellow squashes with green dressing.
