American Gyros
Authentic Greek gyros are made with pork and chicken, but I prefer this version. It uses the same spices but is made with ground lamb and/or beef. Plus it's perfect for making ahead of time and heating it when you make your gyros. Don't forget to make tzatziki!
Honey Syrup
This honey syrup is a great syrup for pouring over gingerbread, but it is also wonderful in cocktails, on pancakes, waffles, or almost anything!
Oatmeal-Blueberry Muffins
