These are some ideas for Father’s Day I’m thinking about!
He’s somewhat difficult to shop for and I know he wouldn’t go out of his way to
try stuff like this. I think it would amuse him and he would be really
appreciative.
Panbury’s Double Crust Hand Pies (Choose 6)
$79 and free shipping
Southern Breakfast – Fluffy, creamy scrambled eggs, sharp
cheddar cheese, fresh chives, and local chicken sausage
Spinach & Feta – Fresh steamed spinach, chunks of creamy
feta cheese, green onion, and loads of fresh dill and fresh parsley
Chicken & Mushroom – Succulent chunks of roast chicken,
meaty mushrooms, celery, onion, fresh thyme, fresh parsley and white pepper in
a creamy white wine sauce
If you have been an earlier follower, you may have seen when
my dad recreated empanadas from a restaurant (insert link). He would love these
hand pies! He really has a strong appreciation for pies and pastries of all
forms. I chose these three because he does not eat red meat for health reasons
and these offer enough variety. I think he will really love the breakfast ones because
he is a strong supporter of chicken sausage and you don’t see it a lot in
breakfast options. I think Marie Callenders could go this route and do really
well. I like the idea of an elevated hot pocket.
McClure’s Bakery Whoppie Pies by the Dozen
$35 and free shipping
Red Velvet, Chocolate, Pumpkin
These are always a go-to at the Amish Market. I think he
would enjoy trying the different flavors. These are such a fun dessert that you
can’t just buy anywhere. I have made these for an ex once but it’s a lot of
work. I would have no problem buying a set like this. I like how thick these
look as well and you can freeze them as well. If I happened to be around when
he gets them, I'd try the classic and pumpkin version.
Arcangeli’s Bakery Artichoke Bread Sampler
$59 free shipping
Artichoke Garlic Herb: Signature Loaf
Pesto Artichoke: Zesty fresh pesto with a generous dose of
garlic and artichoke hearts
Cheesy Cheddar Artichoke: Fresh, seasoned artichokes,
parmesan cheese, garlic, and spices rolled into French bread dough and topped
with a tasty garlic butter sauce and fresh, sharp cheddar cheese.
Artisan Artichoke Focaccia: A traditional flatbread, topped
with artichokes, pesto, cheddar, jack, and provolone cheese
Having the bread pre-baked so you can still have that fresh-baked bread smell in the home is a nice touch. Dad loves some fancy bread he
can find at whole foods for breakfast or a snack. Artichokes are not
represented enough in baked items. It’s always olives. I also haven’t seen
bread like this before so it would be interesting to hear how these tastes if
I can’t get some from him. Which is possible, dad loves bread. I think he would
try the cheesy cheddar version first. I’m realizing all my choices are baked or
bread-based but it’s popular for a reason. Plus, this would last for a while.
The Panbury Pies look delicous! It's such a pity that they are only based in the US, my dad would love them!
