Pickle fans, take note! Increase the pickle taste in your Bloody Mary! The options are unlimited when it comes to serving with garnishes! I enjoy skewering pickled jalapenos, pickled onions, olives, and small dills to go with the food. Start with 1 ounce of pickle brine, and if you want a stronger pickle flavor, add another ounce. The flavor of pickle brine differs based on the brand.

Nice French Toast Bake. I thought there was a little too much butter, but I liked the walnuts on top.
