This segment is sponsored by Leemore Media,
and the products you'll see Tis the
season of nonstop holiday parties.
And here, with all of her
holiday hosting essentials,
is lifestyle contributor Lee Morsus.
Hey, Lee Moore, good to
see you again. Good to see you.
And yes, I've got some easy ways to
entertain this holiday season. Well, I feel
like whoever is hosting,
and I do like hosting,
but you get stuck in the kitchen,
like that's the only thing
you see of the party.
Anything to save us time there.
Yeah. So, you know, you want to spend
more time with your friends and family.
Less time in the kitchen so I have
some hacks for you guys today.
My favorite hack is using the Rose
Gardens flash frozen pre portioned
garlic and herbs because you can.
It really saves you so much time.
You can have fresh garlic,
cilantro, basil, dill,
all of the simple pop of a tray
and it really helps save so much
time while you're prepping dips.
Or over here I made this delicious
pull apart cheesy bread with just
store bought biscuits inside of some
cheese and then on the top there's
just a little bit of butter with.
The Rose garden garlic and the parsley.
So easy to do,
so easy to make and it really just
takes like 5 minutes of prep.
There's no peeling, there's no chopping,
it's always available.
And you know one of the things
when you buy herbs,
there's so many of them and they
just rot in your refrigerator.
So a really great way to save you
some space in your refrigerator
and save you some time.
Over here I made a delicious French
onion dip with their sauteed onions.
I hate sauteing onions because it's
literally like a 45 minute activity,
but I love the taste of them.
So they're it's also.
Really great way to just enjoy
them without spending so much time.
And then you can get them right at
Whole Foods and at Harris Teeter
right in the freezer section.
Save even a few minutes.
It's going to help, right?
For anyone who's coming in that
maybe has a gluten free allergy,
is anything easy to to accommodate to a
bunch of different people who are coming?
Yes. So I know that so many of my
friends and so many people I know are
just gluten free and so I always like
to have gluten free options for them.
So here I have absolutely gluten
free crackers. They're light,
they're delicious, they just.
Happened to be gluten free.
They're made with potatoes so
there's no flour, soy, corn or rice.
So over here you can see I just bought
this really beautiful Christmas tree
platter right at the supermarket,
so it's not even fancy,
but they and then it's just in
the shape of a Christmas tree.
So then I made I just added some
Rosemary and tomatoes and cheese and
made it look like a Christmas tree.
The trick here is to just take a
piece of cheese and use a cookie
cutter on it like a star.
That's put that right at the top,
really easy and literally.
Takes 5 minutes to put together.
They have flatbreads as well,
which pair really great with
dips or anything else.
And then you can just get it right at
Whole Foods Safeway at Harris Teeter
as well. And then you also,
I mean gluten free is a big one.
Dairy free, I had to do that last year
in postpartum and dairy free is hard.
What do you recommend?
Dairy free is hard because so many
alternatives just don't taste great.
They don't over here.
This is planned out and
it's absolutely delicious.
You're going to love it.
Planned out oat milk is a dairy alternative.
That's. Delicious, but it's rich, it's
creamy and you can enjoy it by the glass.
So if you're having, you know,
like a coffee bar or a hot chocolate bar,
it really is great.
Or you can really impress your
friends and family with some of their
recipes they have on their website.
So I made these Mac and cheese
bites with the rich and creamy.
They're extra creamy.
It's so good. It's so delicious.
Over here I made some brownies
with their dark chocolate.
Really decadent, really delicious.
And planet Oatmilk is free from dairy,
but also lactose, gluten, nuts and soy.
It really can be enjoyed by
everyone without sacrificing taste.
Plus,
it's an excellent source of
vitamin AD and calcium,
and you can get more recipes
at planet dot dot com.
Yeah, sounds like you want to even
know what you're missing on that one,
because it just adds so much
for your appetizers there.
You always have the cutest things.
What are you recommending we do this season?
OK, so I'm always looking for ways to
elevate my dishes and things that,
again, won't take a lot of time to prep.
So what I like to always have
on hand is prosciutto de Parma.
It's an easy way to elevate
your holiday spread,
and they're just so many ways to serve it.
You don't even really need a recipe.
You can add it to their
coterie board over here.
I just added it to some blanched asparagus.
You just wrap it around
your favorite vegetable.
You can also make these delicious crostinis,
which I just have some.
You can do some fresh mozzarella,
or you can do like a burrata.
On the bottom I have the prosciutto Depalma,
some basil and prosciutto de Parma,
all natural.
They're no preservatives or additives,
but a lot of people are like,
well, which one do I get?
I never know.
So what you want to do is you want
to look for the crown to ensure
the prosciutto is from Parma,
and you can.
Find it right in your
supermarket. I hope your crew is
hungry with that spread that's
in front of you right now.
I know right now, like,
no one's allowed to touch it.
No one. Not until we're done.
But you're done here.
Thank you, Limor.
Good to see you again.
Thank you. I'll see you soon.
