Since Mardi Gras is around the corner I wanted to share 10 awesome Mardi Gras recipes starting with my Healthier Hurricane recipe. Mardi Gras or “Fat Tuesday” is next Tuesday, February 12th. My kids always want me to purchase a King Cake this time of year. I am thrilled to find this Traditional King Cake recipe below as well as some other Cajun and New Orleans favorites. I have actually never been to Mardi Gras, but I love New Orleans and the excitement that Mardi Gras brings to the city. I will be celebrating at home by trying a few of these 10 creations.
