Mabon Recipe

Pomegranate Sorbet

Ingredients:

2 C. pomegranate juice
1/3 C. orange juice
1/3 C. cranberry juice
1/2 Tsp. lemon juice
1/3 C. sugar
1 orange
Mint leaves
Fresh pomegranate seeds

Preparation:

Blend all the juices and the sugar in an airtight container. Cover the container, and then freeze for four hours. When the mixture has frozen solid, use a spoon to break it up into small chunks (not smooth). Re-freeze for a few more hours.

To serve, scoop the frozen sorbet into cups or glasses, and garnish with slices of orange, mint leaves, and the extra pomegranate seeds.

Ostara Recipe

Bird Nest Cupcakes

Ingredients:

Cake mix or scratch cake
White frosting
Grated coconut
Green food colouring
Marshmallow chicks (yellow, pink, white, blue or lavender)
Jelly beans

Preparation:

Bake cupcakes according to directions. Allow to cool completely. Frost with icing tinted green with the food colouring.

Place the desired amount of coconut in a plastic bag and add a small dab of green food colouring. Close the bag and mix and shake until colour is evenly distributed. If you use liquid colouring spread the coconut out on a paper towel so it dries a bit.

Sprinkle coloured coconut on top of frosted cupcakes and place a chick in the centre. Add a few jelly beans around the chick, so that they look like eggs.
