If you’re addicted to food blogs, you’ve probably read The BakerMama, Maegan Brown’s 11-year-old site for family-friendly recipes that include those for food boards, party spreads and small bites. In her blog, she also loves to share stories about her daily life in Dallas with her husband, Brandon, and their four kids: Baker, Bryce, Barrett and Brookie.
Brown’s just released her third book, “Brilliant Bites,”which is filled with 75 recipes for small bites that allow guests to graze lots of simple and very clever takes on everything from Blooming Onion Bites, Pancake Taco Bites and Banana Split Bites to Pumpkin Pie Bites, Apple Fritter Bites and Eggs Benedict Bites. My new story for The San Diego Union-Tribune’s Food section takes a look at Brown and Brilliant Bites, with recipes for three perfect holiday brunch bites.
