Blogmas Day 6- Pizza Quesadillas

Hey Guys,

So lately I've been loving making the Old El Paso Quesadilla Kits and I saw a pin on pintrest that was pizza quesadilla's, so I thought that I would share it with you all since I like them so much. I cant remember who's board I found the recipe on but they are easy to cook and yummy to eat.

What you will need:-
Soft Corn Tortillas (two for each quesadilla)
Tomato Puree
Grated Cheese
Any Filling
Butter or Oil

Step 1- Put a pan on medium heat and add your oil or butter till its melted.

Step 2- Get a tortilla wrap and put cheese on top of it.

Step 3- spread a small amount of tomato purée onto the other wrap.

Step 4- Put the wrap with the cheese on in the pan till its melted and the wrap has gone brown on the bottom. 

Step 5- Take the cheese wrap out and put the other wrap with the tomato purée on in the pan. 

Step 6- Put the cheese wrap on top of the tomato purée wrap till its stuck together and all hot. 

I know this wasn't to do with Christmas but I hope you like this idea and if you try it don't forget to tag me in Instagram and leave a comment if you have any other cook quesadilla ideas for me. 

Question of the day- what is your favourite winter food?

Blogmas Day 5- Pre-Christmas Christmas

Hey Guys,

I wanted to share a little family tradition that my sister, her husband and me have created over the past few years and its called Pre-Christmas Christmas, which is basicly a mini version of christmas on the last weekend before December starts or the first weekend of December. We usually go to Bakwell Christmas market on the Saturday and then on Sunday have a mini christmas with a christmas dinner, secret Santa and putting up christmas decorations in her house. So I thought I would show you her christmas tree, my secret Santa gifts and my Christmas dinner!

We decided this year we wanted to fill the tree with as many baubles as we possibly could without it looking silly and I think we did quite well. 

Sorry if you are a vegetarian, but this is meat central! I had pigs in blankets, stuffing, Turkey with bacon on it, roast potatoes and gravy. It was definitely one of the best Christmas dinners I've ever had. 

So my secret Santa match this year was my sister and she got me this beautiful scarf, I've been wanting a new one for a while. She also got me an amazing book that we found in a second hand book shop and it's called Simon's cat. I love this book because it reminds me of my cats so much! 

I hope you liked learning about one of my family traditions if you have any cool traditions then don't forget to leave them in the comments and make sure to come back tomorrow for Blogmas day 6! 

Question of the day- Do you have any christmas traditions?

Blogmas Day Two- The Christmas tag

Hey guys,

Today I decided to think about my favourite parts of Christmas by doing a Christmas tag

1.  Do you prefer a real Christmas tree or synthetic tree?

I prefer a real Christmas trees instead of synthetic but I have never had a chance to have one we always have had synthetic but once I get my own house I plan to get real Christmas trees every year as a new tradition. 

2.  You're in a coffee shop, it's December, what do you pick?

I would definitely choose a hot chocolate and if they did any special kinds then I would choose one of those Costa is usually my go to for the special hot chocolate.

3.  What's your favourite colour scheme for decorating the tree?

Well my colour scheme last year was red and silver so it will probably do that again this year with a few special decorations with it.

4.  Giving or receiving?

I would have to say I love receiving gifts but its a lot better giving gifts I love buying things for people and seeing how happy they are when giving them to people.

5.  To mince pie or not to?

Not to for sure I don't like them at all I prefer something chocolatey 

6.  What's your traditional Sunday lunch?

My traditional Sunday lunch has got to be chicken, vegetables, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, and gravy
  

7.  Christmas day fashion?
It has to be something cute and comfortable like a cosy jumper, leggings and cosy socks. 

8.  What's your favourite Christmas song?

I don't have one in particular but keep coming back over the Christmas season and you will see 10 of my favourite songs. 

9.  What's your favourite Christmas film?

It has to be Elf ! There will also be a top 10 christmas films blog post over the christmas season so keep your eyes out for that.

10.  Open presents before or after lunch?

My family have always opened our presents before we have christmas lunch preferably as early as possible.

I hope you like this tag and I want everyone who reads this blog post to do this tag if you have a blog. I hope you are all having a good day and don't forget to do your christmas challenge of the day if you are joining in on it.
