Deliciousness in a mug!

2011-09-29T11:12:00.002-05:00

For starters, I found this on the internet, unfortunately I have no memory of where. I wrote it on paper by hand and then tried it later. It is yummmmmmy.

Nutella Mug Cake

1/4 cup self-rising flour *
1/4 cup sugar (regular white granulated sugar)
1 egg
3 TBSP cocoa powder
3 TBSP Nutella
3 TBSP milk
3 TBSP oil

Mix all ingredients well in a mug (extra tall mug works best **)

Microwave for 1 1/2 to 3 minutes - in our microwave it works best at 2 minutes, start with 1 1/2 minutes and check it if it is still not done, add 30 seconds at a time until done.

If you want you can add whipped cream on top. We tried it with and with out, personally I like without better.

* To make self-rising flour: for each 1 cup of all-purpose flour add 1/2 TBSP baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt - mix well, keep in a container to use as needed.

** If you only have regular-sized mugs, just place a plate under the mug so you can still eat the parts that overflow. It will look like a volcano of Nutella cake!

Enjoy!!!

Yummy Chocolate Chip Cookies

2010-03-02T16:55:00.005-06:00

From the kitchen of Abby Schlag

1 1/2 cup butter (softened)
1 1/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cup brown sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla
2 eggs
6 cup flour {recipe actually originally has 4 cups, but Abby told mee-Marcia-to add more, and after trial and error, I came to 6 cups.}
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
4 cup (2 bags) chocolate chips

Cream: butter, sugars, vanilla, and eggs.

Add flour, soda, and salt (it will be very dry and crumbly like)
Add chocolate chips (Marcia does this by hand [I suggest maybe a robot]){Marcia likes to use one bag semi-sweet and one bag milk-chocolate}

Marcia flattens out dough by hand on parchment paper and then cuts it into equal sized portions. Bake as many ad you want and freeze the rest, so you can bake as many as you want later.

350* for 11-13 minutes {Marcia discovered that it really turns out to her liking best when sticking to only 12 minutes, allow 10 minutes to sit on the cookie sheet before moving unless you intend to eat right out of the oven, but after 10 minutes, they are still warm}

Makes about 6 dozen

- Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone[iPod actually, and I only added the stuff in brackets and am posting this because nobody else would and I just recieved it in the mail today finnally and I make no claim to it and do not know who Abby is and if you are Abby thanks for the recipe.

Three Meet Stromboli!

2009-08-30T17:34:00.003-05:00

Well, I have made this several times and have had rave? reviews, and also requests for the restipe.

So here goes:

This starts with a bread doh! The recipe comes from "Taste of Home" and says to use frozen bread dough, I did that once and it was good, but I find that if I use the No-need dough that I use in pizza bread or cinnimin roles it works just as well and is much faster, so I will reproduced it here.

1 Tbs. dry yeast- this is a packet of yeast
1-1/2 cups warm water
2 Tbs. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup melted buter, margarine, shortening- I usually use margerine
1 egg, slightly beaten
3-1/2 to 4-1/2 cups flour-(whatever it takes to get it easy to handle.)

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the other ingredients in order given, mixing well after each addition. Add enough flour to make a soft dough that can be shaped with your hands.

You then roll this out jelly-roll style? a 12 by 15 rectangle or whatever shape you get, mine usually ends up looking like the state of Oklahoma or something.

Then you place your meat on it, the recipe I use makes 4 loafs but I still use about the same amount of stuff four 2 loaves. The "toppings" list is as followes:

1/2 lb. sliced deli Salami

1/2 lb. sliced deli Ham

1/2 lb. sliced pepperoni

1/2 lb. sliced Provolone Cheese

2 cups. 8 oz. shred. Mutzerella Cheese

1/2 cup parmasian or Romano Cheese

1 Tbs. garlic Powerder

1 Tbs. dried oregano

1 tsp. dried parsley flakes

1 tsp. pepper

then it says an egg yolk beatten to brush on for a shinny coat, I did this the first time, I don't think that it needs it. I don't like making the mess.

First you layer the meats I do strips along length wise in kinda a 3-row pattern then put the provalone on then what I do is mix the Parmasean cheese with the seasonings and sprinkle about.

Then you would roll it up, pinch the edges to seal, Place upon a cooking surface/pan/sheet seem side down

Bake at 375 desgrees FAranheit for 25 to 30 Minutes.

Enjoy

Rice and beans Jacob style

2009-06-04T11:55:00.008-05:00

We (Jacob) make this in the rice cooker.

-First cook rice

2 1/4 cups dry rice and the needed water. There is a line in our cooker that we fill it up to.

When rice is finished cooking
-add one can tomato sauce -8 ounces
-add one can Mexican Chili Beans (bigger than 8 ounces, but can't remember the exact size we use, because we are out of that can, but I think it is about 15 ounces)
-add spices to taste, Jacob normally uses Ancho chili powder, (regular) chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder (or crushed garlic or both) and sometimes paprika.

Mix well, or you will have parts that are plain rice.

We like this for a dinner option. It makes 7 cups cooked and is 339 calories per cup.

We like to put a dollop of sour cream on top of it on our plates. Jacob likes to add a splash of Tabasco on his, Gavyn might like that.

We took this to the Lern Prickett Family Reunion, it was in the big orange bowl.

Left overs can be kept in the fridge for about 3 days and then ought to be eaten or disposed of at 3 days. Jacob did some reading about rice, and I guess it really is not safe to eat rice (any kind) that has been cooked after more that length of time.

Got any ideas

2009-04-17T09:52:00.002-05:00

We are kind of stuck in a rut about meal planning. It's hard because The Boy has decided to be extremely picky. Do y'all have any ideas on good foods that my family might eat?

Pat's Dill Rolls

2008-08-24T23:01:00.002-05:00

A good friend of mine who passed away a few years ago, had this recipe and they are very tasty. Now my mother-in-law makes them for many occasions. Here it is:

Makes 75-100 rolls (depending on the size you cut them out there are a lot more, or less :) )

¾ cup hot water

6 Tbsp butter or margarine

3c. (24oz.) small curd low fat cottage cheese

Melt butter in hot water in microwave. Mix water with cottage cheese in food processor or blender. Blend until smooth. Warm mixture in microwave to warm bath water temperature. Pour into large mixing bowl add:

3 Tbsp dry yeast

2 Tbsp dill weed

3 eggs (room temperature)

Mix well, add:

3 c. flour

¾ tsp baking soda

3 Tbsp sugar

1 Tbsp salt

Blend well; add enough flour (1-3c) to make a moderately stiff dough. Knead until smooth. Let rise in warm draft free place until double, about an hour.

Punch down dough. Roll out on a lightly floured surface to about ½ inch thickness. Cut with small biscuit cutter, place on lightly oil sprayed baking sheet. The rolls can be close together but not quite touching. Let rise until double about 20 minutes. Bake at 375 for 12-15 minutes or just until the edges turn golden. Do not over bake.

Remove from oven and brush tops with butter.

Southern Chicken Roll-Ups

2008-07-16T17:08:00.002-05:00

6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (1 1/2 lb.)
6 slices Swiss cheese (I use pepper jack because I think Swiss is NASTY!)
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp pepper
2 tbsp butter or margarine
3/4 c chicken broth
1/2 tsp dried oregano

Flatten chicken to 1/4-inch thickness. Place a cheese slice on each. Roll up jellyroll-style. In a shallow bowl, combine flour and pepper. Add chicken and roll to coat. In a skillet over medium heat, cook chicken in butter until browned, about 10 minutes, turning frequently. Add broth and oregano. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Simmer for 12 to 14 minutes, or until chicken juices run clear.

Super Easy Chicken Manicotti

2008-04-25T21:53:00.003-05:00

Well this is one from a Betty Crocker(she is so hot) cookbook, for spending 30 minutes or less in the kitchen, we have found several good recipes in it so far and we had this one with Dad, Diane, and Mallory plus Gavyn was here with us(Me, Ginny, and Skyler) for the night.
It calls for 14 mannicottie shells the package came with sixteen and so that is what we used, one and a half pounds of chicken tenders the bag was a pound and ten ounces and just used what we used, a thirty ounce jar of spasketty sause the jar we used was 26 ounces, I noticed after and I would probably like to use a little more but everyone else said it was fine you you choose, um... two cups of mootzerella cheese
and some olives I think I don't have the recipe in front of me and am doing this from memory, it is super easy and probably could be easier than we did it even
Now with all of the ingredients gathered, you spread about a third of the sause on the bottom of a 9 by 13 pan or whatever, it says ungreased, (oh, yeah, some garlic salt) sprinkle garlic salt on the tenders and stuff them into the manicottie, both ends if needed, I did it when they were frozen and did one and a half per pasta shell, I am thinking maybe next time to thaw out the chicken and see how that works, I only broke a couple this time and seeing how sometimes you have several broken just opening the package I did good, now with all of these stuffed place them in the pan on the sauce, cover with the remainging sauce add olives and coat with the cheese, place in the fridgereater covered with foil over night, allow to chill for no more than 24 hours, about an hour before you want to eat preheat the oven to 350 degreeze, and bake it for about an hour covered.
Bone apple tight

Carrot Pineapple Muffins

2008-04-22T15:32:00.002-05:00

1 cup sugar (I use 1/2 brown sugar and 1/2 white sugar)
2/3 cup vegetable oil or canola oil (I use unsweetened applesauce instead)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon (although I'm not a huge cinnamon fan I think it could use a little more cinnamon)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup grated carrot
1 cup drained crushed pineapple

Stir together sugar and oil. Then stir in the eggs until well combined. Add the vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir into sugar mixture just until combined. Add carrots and pineapple just until combined.
Spoon into greased muffin tin, filling to top. Bake in a preheated 375 degree (F) oven for 20 minutes or until done.
Cool in pan for 5-10 minutes, then remove to a rack to finish cooling.

Even Matt and Gavyn ate these and seemed to enjoy them. I have found a way to feed my boys vegetables!! I think that raisins would be pretty good in these also.

Turkey-Cranberry Ravioli with Buttercream gravy

2008-02-11T20:36:00.000-06:00

This is our modification of a Giada De Laurentiis original. It's Marcia's second favorite dish (after my homemade fettucini alfredo, of course!)

Ravioli
1/4 Pound ground turkey, preferably dark meat
2 TBS chopped fresh cranberries (or some pulverized whole berry cranberry sauce will work if you can't get fresh berries)
2 TBS grated romano cheese (you can also use an "italian blend" that's cheap at stores)
1 TBS bread crumbs
1 TBS chopped fresh parsley
1 egg
Salt
Black pepper
20 store-bought wonton wrappers

Gravy
3 TBS butter
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 TBS all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 TBS heavy cream (usually sold as "heavy whipping cream")
1 TBS chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/4 TSP Salt
1/4 TSP Black pepper

To make ravioli:
In a medium-sized bowl, stir together the turkey, cranberries, cheese, bread crumbs
, parsely, and egg. Add a couple pinches of salt and pepper, to taste.

Place 10 wonton wrappers on a work surface. Brush lightly with water using a pastry brush. Place 1 tablespoon of turkey mixture on each of the wonton wrappers. Top with another wonton wrapper. Push out any air bubbles and press around the edges tightly to seal.

To make the gravy:
In a heavy skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Lightly sautee the garlic. Add flour and stir until cooked, about 1 minute. Now you have garlic roux. Slowly add the chicken broth to the roux, stirring quickly to avoid lumps. Ass the cream, parsley, and salt and pepper and cook (DO NOT BOIL) for 2 minutes, stirring often.

In the meantime, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the ravioli and cook until tender, but firm, and the turkey is cooked - about 3 minutes. Drain the ravioli, and serve immediately with the gravy. Delicious!

Tips:
Make sure the cranberries are very finely diced.
Start the ravioli boiling while the garlic is sauteeing.
Have everything for the gravy measured out and ready before you start making it, and it will all be done at the right time.

We had this pizza for lunch. It was pretty good. However neither Matt nor I likes blue cheese so I used ranch dressing instead. For the crust I used the recipe that Rick posted: Pizza from scratch. That too is very delicious. It was a very simple and filling meal that I had to share.

Beef Taco Skillet

1/2 cup water
6 flour tortillas (6 "), cut into 1" pieces
