Romantic Brunch Egg Chicken Veggie Tartlets sexy sangrias Msg 4 21+ #EntertainAndPair AD | Mama Harris KitchenOne of my very favorite ways of celebrating special days is making a special meal for the person being honored. For instance, for birthdays I make their favorite dinner and desserts. It’s how I show my family I love them, and it’s much more personal than packing up my family and heading out to dinner somewhere. I do the same for Father’s Day for my husband and it’s something the kids have picked up on. They do the same for me for Mother’s Day, and the wonderful thing about that is that we don’t have to fight the crowds on those busy holidays.

When Valentine’s Day rolls around, many restaurants begin serving a special menu and prices are sky high. So I take a bit of a different approach.

When my husband and I first got together I wasn’t much of a cook. There were about 5 dinners I had on constant rotation, or else I would order out. His way of wooing me was to cook for me, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. However, breakfast (or brunch) was always my jam. I’ve always loved to make breakfast, and in those early days of our relationship we loved to cook brunch together. We’d leisurely create our meal, helping one another cook ourselves a feast.

Those are some of my fondest memories.

My favorite photos of us from our engagement photo session.

In fact, my husbands enjoyment of preparing meals actually rubbed off on me, and helped me dabble into cooking. He is a huge part of my cooking journey, and as a result it’s a rarity that he has to cook anymore.

Since our love story began as a blending of our family, sometimes going out for romantic dinners (or brunch) just isn’t in the cards. We’ve always had children to tend to as well, so it was important for us to make them an important part of the foundation of our relationship. Sometimes that means we get creative with dates. We might go out to a movie when the kids are at school or have a late dinner together at home once the kids go to bed.

So I came up with a fun way to celebrate Valentine’s Day this year. I decided we’d enjoy the day at home, prepare some sexy sangria’s the night before and then the morning of Valentine’s Day we could work together to create this delicious and super easy brunch.

All dressed up, enjoying a rare night out.

To prepare the sangrias I wanted to get just the right wines. Something flavorful, but also fun and casual. I found The Dreaming Tree Wines in both red and white varieties. The north coast red wine is dubbed Crush, and it’s a red blend. The central coast white wine is dubbed Everyday, and it’s a white blend. I discovered that The Dreaming Tree Wines is a brand that is sustainably conscious from vine to table. The labels are made with 100% recycled brown paper, the bottles are 1/4 pound lighter than average, the bottles and corks are recyclable – all of this means they leave a smaller carbon footprint.

That’s a company I can stand behind!

Sexy white Sangria with the dreaming tree everyday white wine red sangria with dreaming tree red crush wine  Msg 4 21+ #EntertainAndPair ADThe Dreaming Tree Wines are a creative collaboration between the musician Dave Matthews and Sean McKenzie, who is an award-winning winemaker. Together they launched a collection of high-quality wines in Fall of 2011 that are also approachable.

Sexy white Sangria with the dreaming tree everyday white wine red sangria with dreaming tree red crush wine Msg 4 21+ #EntertainAndPair ADBefore I could use the wines in a Sangria recipe, I had to try them out first to see what sort of flavor notes each blend offered. I have to say I love the labels too. Very pretty!

The Dreaming Tree Everyday White Wine tasted clean and crisp. There’s fresh floral notes, as well as citrus and ripe honeysuckle notes with a bit of a zesty fruit flavor without being overly sweet. Oh yeah, this is my kind of wine!

Sexy white Sangria with the dreaming tree everyday white wine red sangria with dreaming tree red crush wine Msg 4 21+ #EntertainAndPair ADThe Dreaming Tree Crush Red Wine Blend is a combination of a few wine varieties. There’s Merlot, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel and Syrah resulting in a very unique blend of flavors. There’s raspberry jam and vanilla oak characters on the nose, with juicy mixed berry flavors. The flavor is rich, without being overpowering, and not too dry for this gal that’s not necessarily a red wine drinker. I actually quite liked it!

Sexy white Sangria with the dreaming tree everyday white wine red sangria with dreaming tree red crush wine Msg 4 21+ #EntertainAndPair ADI decided to play on those citrusy flavors with the Everyday wine and use some grapefruit, orange and lemons in the sangria. In addition, I added some apricot, apple and pineapple for a bit of a sweet punch and a few sprigs of mint for fun. In addition to the wine, I added some ginger ale and pineapple juice for a bit of a sweet fizz. This would be a wonderful sangria to serve on hot summer nights, but really I could enjoy it year round.

Romantic Brunch dreaming tree white everyday wine Sexy Sangria Msg 4 21+ #EntertainAndPair AD | Mama Harris KitchenSince the crush had a bit of a deeper taste to it, I played up the berry fruitiness of it by adding blackberries and blueberries. I also decided to add some mango and apples for a hint of sweetness. Topped with limes and a bit of rosemary and cinnamon sticks for depth, I mixed the wine with some orange juice to really make this a deep and rich sangria that would surely be unforgettable. This would be a great sangria to serve over the holiday season with the rich scents of rosemary and cinnamon.

Romantic Brunch dreaming tree red crush wine Sexy Sangria Msg 4 21+ #EntertainAndPair AD | Mama Harris KitchenAs for the brunch? I was inspired by some of my favorite omelet flavors, but decided to put it in a different form. This is incredibly easy and so fun to put together, leaving more time to snuggle with your love and really celebrate your romance. I combined cheese, spinach, deli sliced chicken and tomatoes with egg and herbs and put it on top of puff pastry to create these adorable little tartlets. They paired beautifully with the sangria’s!

 Romantic Brunch Egg Chicken Veggie Tartlets sexy sangrias Msg 4 21+ #EntertainAndPair AD | Mama Harris KitchenI just love how it all came out, so much flavor and beautiful colors between each of the sangrias and the delicious tartlets. What’s really awesome is if these tartlets are something I want to serve the whole family I just double the recipe and pop them in the oven! Super easy brunch and it’s totally open for customization! If you’re not into tomatoes you can change them out with something else, or if you want to make it vegetarian you could take the meat out.

Romantic Brunch dreaming tree white everyday wine Sexy Sangria Msg 4 21+ #EntertainAndPair AD | Mama Harris KitchenOf course, this would also be a great option for a weekend getaway with your love. Brunch and sangria’s on a lazy Sunday for Valentine’s Day.

Doesn’t that sound wonderful?

(AD) There has been a lot of cooking going on this year, so I’ve tried to make life a bit easier by getting creative with my leftovers. These pulled pork totchos are a great example of leftovers with a few key ingredients to create something new to keep our meals exciting. Adding a few key ingredients like @lamorenausa adobo peppers and jalapeños and carrots definitely livens up something simple. La Morena peppers are hand selected, using only the highest quality peppers to bring you authentic home style flavors of Mexico. I purchased my La Morena items from my local Safeway, but you can find them at your favorite grocery store in the international food section. #PayItForwardwithLM #VivaLaMorena #WeCanWithLaMorena 
 
INGREDIENTS:
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend + Pepper Jack)
- 2 cups prepared bbq pulled pork (check my pulled pork sliders recipe!)
- 1/2 can La Morena Adobo Peppers & Sauce
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 cup pico de Gallo
- 1/2 cup guacamole
- 3 chopped green onions 
- 3-4 La Morena jalapeños and carrots, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare tater tots as instructed, in air fryer or oven. Heat oven to 450°. 
Cover the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with the cooked tater tots. 
Top with 1 1/2 cup of cheese. 
Combine the chopped adobo peppers and sauce with the prepared bbq pulled pork. Spread the pulled pork mixture on top of the tater tots, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Top with sour cream, ranch, pico de Gallo, guacamole, green onions, and sliced jalapeños and carrots.

Enjoy!! 😋

Hello Instagram fam! 💖 There’s some new faces around here and it’s been a while since I showed mine!

I’m Dawn, creator of Mama Harris’ Kitchen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me! In this space I share my family-friendly recipes for all occasions, whether it be a 30-minute meal for those busy weeknight dinners or a full spread for entertaining a crowd - and everything in between.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen began back in 2012, in fact it’s 8 years this month! 🥳  What started as a way to document my newfound cooking hobby while managing my “new” life as a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 1 and 3 year along with teens and preteens, and it quickly grew into what it is now - a recipe resource for busy families like mine that enjoy flavorful and comforting home-cooking using pantry staples along with fresh and local ingredients as often as possible. 

🍿Five fun facts about me:
1. I LOVE elephants! 🐘 I collect a lot of elephant items, whether it’s trinkets or  artwork, notepads etc. I love what elephants symbolize and I truly love anything elephant related.
2. I’m a total plant lady! 🌱 I have about 35 houseplants, give or take, and there’s still more on the list of wants. Plants have become such a peaceful outlet for me, and I feel that they really center me within my space. I love the element plants bring to your space and the feel of your home with them in it, and new leaves are so exciting!
3. I have seven tattoos and I have plans for about eight more. 💉 Those that know me aren’t surprised, but those that follow me here tend to find it a bit surprising. 🙃
4. I’ve been a mother for a long time, over half my life! I’ve also been a lot of different “types” of mom - teen mom, single mom, working mom, stepmom, stay at home mom, PROUD mom, military mom, mother in law - the list goes on. No matter what, motherhood looks different for everyone and there’s unique challenges and experiences each mother faces. Please be gentle with yourself! ❤️At the end of the day we’re all just trying our best!
5. I’m a bit of an introvert, and often struggle with the “social” aspect of social media. I tend to go silent sometimes, but I’m working on it.

☀️Thank you for joining me here!
