Fabulous Food

I made this the other day and it's delicious. This makes about 5-6 servings Ingredients: 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts 3 cups of cheese or meat tortellini (or a combination)  1 large red pepper, sliced 2 cups of shredded cheddar (or cheese of your choice - Parmesan would be good) 4 TB butter or margerine Salt and pepper to taste 1TB flour 2-3 cups of cream (light or half-and-half is sufficient) 1/2-1 cup of red tomato sauce of your choice (I used a basil mix) 1. Boil some water and add in your tortellini to start cooking - it can take a while.  2. Cut the chicken into small bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper. Melt half of your butter in a large pan and wait for it to heat up. Once it's heated, add the chicken and cook until it's cooked through and browned nicely on the outside. 3. Add the rest of the butter and let it melt, then add the flour and mix thoroughly.  4. Add in your cream and cook for 3-5 minutes, unti...

I stole this from a website! But I want to keep a record for it and try it. I'll be making it tomorrow so I'll post any updates if I change anything.  Ingredients 1 c. diced onion 4 Tablespoons butter 1 cup sour cream* ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon dried parsley ¼ teaspoon turmeric ¼ teaspoon celery seed (or celery salt) optional: dash to ¼ tsp. cayenne Instructions Melt the butter in a heavy pan, then saute the onions over medium for a few minutes, stirring constantly. Turn the heat to medium-low for about 20-30 minutes. Stir occasionally and cook until browned and smelling amazing. The onions will have reduced to about ⅓ cup. Allow to cool, but not in the refrigerator (the butter will harden too much). Mix with the sour cream and all the spices. Allow at least an hour for the flavors to blend, and serve at room temperature if possible. Store in the refrigerator. http://www.eatingrules.com/2012/10/homemade-french-onion-chip-dip/

I made this cake for my daddy's birthday, and he's not big on sweets, so I decided to make it a fruit cake.  I'm not going to go through all of the ingredients because it's all pretty straight forward - I'll add links and info where it's needed.  You'll need: Ingredients to make 2 vanilla cakes 2 pints of strawberries (and other fruit if needed) 4 chocolate pudding cups (or 2-3 cups of pudding) 2 packs of dream whip mix and the ingredients to make it 1/2 cup of cream cheese 3-5 tbsp icing sugar This is a layer cake, so if you have two pans you can make the cakes seperately, or you can make one and cut it in half later. I cut mine in half.  You can also use and shaped pan you want - you'll just have to vary the baking times.  Begin by making your two vanilla cakes. Here's the site that I used for the recipe.  Just watch how long you leave it in - mine was done way before 1 hour even with the recipe doubled.  http://m.ricardocuisine.com/recette-detaill...

I'm not going to lie to you - I stole this recipe! BUT it's delicious so I'm going to share with you.  Here is the recipe from the website: "2 skinless and boneless chicken breasts 1 cup milk 1 egg 1 1/4 cups flour 2 TBSP powdered sugar 2 tsp salt 1 tsp pepper peanut oil (is best) or canola oil In a medium bowl whisk the egg and stir in the milk. Trim any fat away from chicken. Cube chicken into bite size pieces. Place chicken in milk mixture,and cover. Let it 'marinate' for 2-4 hours in the fridge. This will make the chicken very nice and tender. In a gallon size resealable baggie combine flour, powdered sugar, salt and pepper. Seal and shake to combine. Place about 2 inches of oil in a medium deep pot. Over medium high heat (more towards the high side) heat oil until hot. If using a thermometer let the temperature reach 375°. If you don't have a fancy gadget like most people, I always test my oil by dropping a few drops of water into it. You want it to si...

This is comfort food; there is nothing healthy about this.  I had a pack of nine of those small boneless pork loin chops and decided to do something super unhealthy with it! For 9 rolls, you need: 9 chops 1 package of garlic and herb cream cheese 1/2 cup of sweet BBQ sauce  1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese  1 teaspoon of garlic salt 1 pack of bacon Begin by tenderizing the meat to flatten it out. You can use whatever tools you have that work to do this; a meat tenderizer is ideal though.  Mix the cheese, cream cheese and garlic salt together in a bowl.  Spoon about a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture into the centre of each pork chop, and roll it up. Coat it in BBQ sauce.  Wrap two slices of bacon around each pork chop roll.  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through. If the bacon is not sufficiently crispy, put the oven on broil for a few minutes.

I had bacon and ground beef and wanted to make something. Easiest thing that comes to mind is casserole.  This is the most amazing casserole ever - it's definitely not good for you! Ingredients 1 pound of ground beef 1/2 large white onion - minced 1 tablespoon garlic salt 1 teaspoon seasoning salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper  2-3 cups of pasta shells (dry) 1 large can of pasta sauce of your choice 1-2 cups of cheddar cheese; shredded 1/2 pound of cooked bacon  Parmesan cheese to top Start by cooking your pasta and browning the beef. Season your beef with half of the garlic salt, and all of the season salt.  While the beef is browning in a pan, add the minced onion and cook until the beef is browned.  My bacon was leftover, but if you need to, cook your bacon as well at this time.  Cut the bacon into small pieces.  Drain the beef and onion; drain your pasta.  Take your beef and onion, bacon, pasta, and pasta sauce and mix it all together. Mix in half of yo...
