I am been asking other bloggers to share their recipes with me this summer. I promised to feature them in one of JDaniel’s muffin tin meals. I had three bloggers share their recipes. Two of the recipes have been featured already. The other will be featured next week. Mom to 2 Posh Lil Divas shared an idea rather than a recipe with me. Her idea was to spell Jdaniel’s name in French toast. I only have large letters in cookie cutters. The amount of French toast is would take to spell his name would be more than he would probably eat.
I decided to take her idea of French toast and search Pinterest to see what recipes came up. French toast on a stick stood out to me among the rest of the ideas I found. I had previously found a pasta salad on a stick recipe on Pinterest and pinned it to one of my boards on the site.
That gave me two meal ideas on a stick. Both ideas could be served at a brunch or a lunch. Voila! Brunch on a stick became the theme for this week’s tin.
JDaniel has fruit with French toast served on a coffee stirrer rather than a real stick. The pasta salad on a stick is made of cold cheese ravoli, pepperoni, and grape tomatoes.
There is a cup of syrup and a cup of Vidalia onion salad dressing and a cookie in the second row.
You may be asking what is Pinterest? It is a booking site that allows you to bookmark links you love and displays them on small boards. The boards are like bulletin boards. You can set up board for specific areas of interest. I have a board for Muffin Tin Monday Ideas and one for Read.Explore.Learn. Ideas.

If you are interested in joining Pinterest, please let me know. It is by invitation only right now, but I can give you an invite.
I would still love to try some of your recipes! If you have one you want me to try, please include the link to it below.

I’ve reading about your Muffin Tin Monday and don’t quite get the idea. Is it something like doing up a bento meal, only this is in a muffin tray? It looks interesting.

I love the idea of food on a stick! I make the kids fruit kabobs but never thought to put anything else on a stick. I’ve also recently heard about and signed up for pinterest but haven’t checked it out yet. I’m definitely intrigued!

Food on a stick is a great lunch box idea too! I got my son (elementary age) to eat fruit in his lunch that way with the grapes and strawberries. All his friends thought it was so cool. Then all the other children in the family starting wanting food on a stick! It is a great idea!

My girls are obsessed with all kinds of berries. So much so that they call cherry tomatoes “berries”. I recently bought Blackberries for the first time. Kate loved them but Maddie, not so much.

The Mommy Mambo says
A movie meal: Fill a muffin hole with popcorn. Another with chocolate almonds. A short can of rootbeer (it caffeine free) should fit as well. A few corn chips sprinkled with grated cheddar for Nachos in another. And lastly…..fill the remaining hole with two tickets for the two of you to enjoy a movie of his choice while enjoying your junky but semi-healthy Movie Meal!
