1. Cauliflower-Infused Pizza Crust

2. Savory Ice Cream

Savory ice cream is a treat you can find in any grocery store. It’s made with the same base as regular ice cream, but instead of sweetening it with sugar and vanilla extract, savory ice cream gets its flavor from cheese, herbs and spices.

Savory ice creams come in a range of flavors: bacon sundae, cheddar caramel swirl and even Spicy Sriracha Caramel are just a few examples.

But if you’re hesitant to try them, don’t be! Savory ice creams really do taste like the food they’re named after for example, if you’ve ever had blue cheese on your pizza then you’ll recognize that familiar tangy flavor when you bite into some blue cheese french onion dip flavored savory ice cream.

And don’t worry about being tempted by sugary treats; this stuff is packed with protein so it will keep you fuller longer than traditional desserts (you can thank those cheesy or meaty flavors for that).

You can find savory ice creams at most grocery stores or specialty markets like Whole Foods Market or Trader Joe’s. Consider serving your guests some alongside their next meal; it’ll give them something new to talk about at dinner parties!

Savory Ice Cream	Unique and unexpected ice cream flavors with a savory twist.
Spicy Mango Salsa	Tangy and fiery salsa featuring fresh mango and spicy peppers.
Truffle Risotto	Indulgent and aromatic risotto infused with truffle oil.
Basil Pesto Pasta	Fragrant and vibrant pasta dish with a basil-based sauce.
Teriyaki Salmon	Grilled or baked salmon marinated in a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce.

3. Nutella Bagel

You may be familiar with Nutella as a spreadable chocolate-hazelnut concoction. It’s been around for ages and it’s delicious, but have you ever tried it on a bagel? If not, prepare to fall in love.

Nutella bagels are just as they sound: regular bagels with a sweet cream cheese filling made from Nutella instead of cream cheese.

While similar to traditional “smear” or “cream cheese” spreads (which also contain nut butters), Nutella’s flavor is bolder than many other nut butters and the texture more spreadable than clumpy.

This means that when paired with a soft bagel and warmed up slightly in the oven or microwave, it makes for an indulgent breakfast food that feels like dessert first thing in the morning — try putting some fruit slices on top for even greater effect!

4. Cookie Dough Kebab

Nestle

If you haven’t heard, there’s a new dessert that has taken the country by storm. It’s called cookie dough kebab and it’s pretty much what it sounds like: chunks of cookie dough threaded onto skewers and dipped in chocolate.

Don’t let the strange name fool you—this stuff is amazing! If you’re looking for a fun new treat to try this year, look no further than your local grocery store (or maybe even your kitchen).

5. Gooey Grilled Cheese Burger

A Gooey Grilled Cheese Burger is a burger made with two beef patties, melted mozzarella and American cheese, cheddar cheese sauce and bacon.

The whole thing is topped with more melted mozzarella and American cheese, then drizzled with ranch dressing.

For those looking for this delicacy in Chicago, you can find it at Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria. They have three locations the first opened in 1971 so there’s no excuse not to try one (or several).

The cost of a Gooey Grilled Cheese Burger varies depending on what type of toppings you want on it (bacon costs extra) but expect to pay around $15 for one if you’re paying full price.

6. Carrot Fries

Carrot fries are a great alternative to potato fries. Carrot fries are easy to make, and they’re not just for snacking they can be used as a side dish too!

To make carrot fries at home: Peel the carrots and cut them into 1/4-inch-thick pieces (like you would for French fries). If you have time, soak the carrots in water for about 30 minutes so that they don’t brown as quickly on the outside.

Next, heat some oil in a skillet over medium heat until it’s hot enough to brown but not so hot that it burns the oil. Place your carrot pieces into the pan of hot oil and cook them until they turn golden brown on each side (about 5 minutes per side). Remove from heat when done cooking and enjoy!

You can also use this same method with other root vegetables like parsnips or beets—just peel them first before cutting into sticks or cubes!

8. Piña Colada Soup

Ingredients:

1/2 avocado, chopped and mashed with lime juice

2 cups coconut milk
1 cup pineapple chunks (or more)
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

How to make it:

In a blender or food processor, combine all ingredients until smooth and creamy. Add more coconut milk if you want a thinner soup; add less if you prefer it thicker.

10. Salted Caramel Pie

Salted caramel pie is a delicious dessert that’s easy to make and fun to share. The rich, creamy filling is made with egg, sugar, butter and heavy cream. The crust is made from flour, sugar and butter.

To get the best possible results when making salted caramel pie:

Use butter instead of vegetable shortening in your crust recipe. Butter adds flavor and moistness that you can’t get from vegetable shortening (which has no taste at all!). It also makes it easier to roll out if you’re using a food processor or pastry cutter/blender attachment for your mixer.

Use salted butter instead of unsalted for the filling because it will add more flavor and require less salt overall! Also note that some people prefer salted over unsalted because it enhances other flavors—so use whichever works best for you!

If you follow these tips while making this delicious dessert then no matter which way they slice it…you’ll be sure not only have an amazing time but also enjoy healthy eating habits as well!
