Fabulous Food

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...

WThis dish is a combination of a recipe I found online and some leftovers.  The recipe I went off of is here:  http://m.allrecipes.com/recipe/143394/grilled-garlic-and-herb-shrimp I found it very sweet so I added 2 teaspoons of garlic salt and one teaspoon of celery salt.  I made the sauce x3 and marinated the shrimp in it. I then cooked it in a frying pan and, near the end, I added some leftover chopped pork rib meat.  I then cooked 2 cups of rice and made two plates with rice on the bottom and the shrimp and pork on top.  This was delicious! 

So I didn't take a picture of this because I didn't think it would be good, but it was! This makes two servings.  Ingredients: 2-3 pieces of steak - whichever cut you like 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs 1/2 cup of flour 1-2 tsp seasoning salt 1 tsp pepper 1 1/2 cups of cooked rice of your choice 3/4 cup tomato sauce (I used Ragu) Start by cooking your rice - I had mine leftover so I just heated it when I was ready.  While that's cooking, cut your steak into bite sized chunks. Mix the flour, panko, salt and pepper together.  Coat the beef in the flour mixture.  Using a deep fryer (or oil in a pan), fry the steak until it's crispy on the outside - this doesn't take long.  Heat up your sauce in a pan or the microwave.  Layer the rice, then beef, then sauce on your plate and enjoy.  Add salt and pepper to taste.
