- 1 cup butter , melted
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Heat pizzelle iron. Drop batter by teaspoonfuls onto the center of the patterns, close the lid and cook for about 30 seconds. Test the cooking time on the first one, because temperatures may vary. Remove cookies carefully from the iron and cool on wire racks.

Raw Cauliflower Salad
With a lightly salty and almost crispy tangy dressing, this salad is easy to make. The onions are definitely optional, or use less if you like.
Instant Pot Crusty No-Knead Bread
Great crusty bread requires a great deal of time to make, patience, and the perfect environment. The Instant Pot® cuts the time by several hours and creates the perfect slightly moist, warm environment perfect for activating dough. This goes so great with a good slathering of butter or dipped in a warm bowl of stew!
Mint-Cucumber Mojitos
This refreshing version of mint mojitos features a springtime kick of cucumber. We love these at special gatherings and summer barbeques. A pitcher of this can be made a few hours in advance--just add alcohol at serving time.
