It’s easy to make a special flavored garlic butter with a few added ingredients. This dairy free butter spread is wonderful on rolls or biscuits.
Good Monday Morning! We had a super laid back weekend here, which was nice since next weekend will be hectic with Easter celebrations. We stayed around the house and played outside a lot, and grilled for the first time – yay! We also ordered Indian food yesterday because it was just that kind of day…the “I am so done with cooking right now” kind of day.
I’m keeping with the laid back theme today and sharing a super simple recipe. I love to make flavored butters, especially for holiday dinners or parties. They’re so easy to do, and add so much extra flavor to your dinner rolls or biscuits. I’m going to be making this green onion and garlic butter for Easter dinner. I will probably serve it on biscuits or on these super easy and delicious quick soft bread sticks.
My brother and his wife are vegan, so since we have similar diets, I am in charge of making a couple of dishes that will work for the two of them and for our family as well. This buttery spread fits the bill, and I will also be making a salad or side dish, too.
There’s really nothing to making flavored butter – let your butter (or in my case, vegan buttery spread) soften a little bit, and then throw it in the food processor or blender with your flavorful additions. I used green onion and garlic, but I also love to make garlic rosemary butter, too. The strawberry butter I made for this post is so wonderful for a brunch or breakfast. There are lots of possibilities!

I grow green onions in my garden every year, and they sprout up so fast I can’t get thru them fast enough. This is a great idea! I would definitely put this on meat and fish too. Yum!
