The Yogurt Shoppe Cafe Ranch Chicken

Wed, 09 Dec 2009 17:26:14 -0500

The Yogurt Shoppe Cafe is in Columbus Georgia and was established in 1987. Ranch Chicken is one of the popular items on the menu amongst many other delicious home cooked meals. One of my friends came upon the recipe in a local magazine and was kind enough to share it with me so I just couldn't wait to share it with you. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. -- posted by Bay Laurel

Bacon & Mozzarella Topped Portabella Mushroom With Pesto

Wed, 09 Dec 2009 18:27:38 -0500

This is a recipe to die for, quick to prepare, quick to make and can be done in large numbers. It is an ideal for breakfast, lunch or evening meal and looks special enough to serve to guests too. Low in saturated fat, this is ideal for anyone on a weight watchers or calorie controlled diet. Inspired by a lunch I had in an Italian Bistro, with the additon of Bacon. -- posted by JinxTheCat

Nif's Cure for Stinky Onion Fingers

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 20:46:43 -0500

Do your fingers stink like onions after you handle them? I had to list the ingredients the way that I did because I couldn't list the knife. I have never used lemon, but it can't hurt! :) You won't believe how well this works! It usually takes away the smell of garlic too. You can use a dull butter knife but if you are not comfortable using a knife, you can use some other resources of stainless steel. Enjoy! -- posted by Nif

This is a great gift idea, fairly simple to make and loads of fun to decorate! You can paint on letters on each carriage to form a name or just do an extra long train to have at a birthday party. Great addition to gingerbread house(s) to make a whole gingerbread village! **I use self-raising flour for this as it makes a more "bubble-like" 3D train but you can use plain.** THIS RECIPE MAKES GOOEY GINGERBREAD not hard!** This will make a very long train!! -- posted by JinxTheCat

Krumkake / Krumkaker

Mon, 21 Dec 2009 01:02:28 -0500

This is a VEGAN recipe for the Norwegian cookie that is baked on a cookie iron. This recipe is suitable for a pizzelle iron, as well. One cookie is a Krumkake, two or more are Krumkaker. I devised this recipe using vegan ingredients after being unable to find a krumkake recipe suitable to a vegan diet. The taste of flax seed is not noticeable in this recipe. These are delightful holiday treats! -- posted by hypnochelle

Taco Bell Chilito (Chili Cheese Burrito) Recipe!!!

Mon, 21 Dec 2009 01:09:08 -0500

For those of you who live in a place where Taco Bell does not sell their classic Chilito (and judging from Net, this includes alot of places), you can simply make them at home! This recipe is something I developed through trial and error. It is VERY close to the taste of the original. It also has that perfect "chilito" texture. Enjoy!! Important Note: The hot sauce called for in the recipe is Taco Bell's Hot or Mild Sauce (DO NOT USE the Fire sauce) You can make your own Taco Bell Hot Sauce: http://www.recipezaar.com/Taco-Bell-Hot-Sauce-45527 -- posted by 856969

Rat Mash (Grain Free Dog & Cat Food)

Wed, 23 Dec 2009 11:28:30 -0500

We have two chihuahuas and two cats, all under 8 lbs,(the rats, as we call them) that we make this dish for. This will feed all four animals for two meals. Dogs and cats shouldn't eat grains as they make them fat (just like what happens to people when they eat grains) and they're not easily digestable. Cats need a high protein/fat diet and it for sure won't hurt dogs to eat it either. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just like people, our animals get a varied diet. Try not to feed them the same meal day in and day out. Our pets have the softest, shinest coats, clean teeth, a healthy weight, don't have the bad breath and "wet dog" smell that grain fed animals have. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days. -- posted by ThatSouthernBelle

Escargot Vol-Au-Vent. Garlic Butter Snails in Mini Vol-Au-Vents

Mon, 28 Dec 2009 13:06:33 -0500

Garlicky buttered snails served in little light vol-au-vent cases, what a treat for all snail lovers! Living in France gives me access to some wonderful escargots, as well as superb garlic and butter too. These are just brilliant when served as appetisers for New Year or any other festive gathering. The beauty of these over the classic snails served in a baker or in their shells, is that you can eat the WHOLE thing! EVERY single bit of that naughty but exceedingly nice garlic and herb butter, all in one amazing mouthful! If you are unable to get hold of mini vol-au-vents, I have posted an alternative way to make your own little puff pastry cases, using readymade pastry for ease of preparation! Allow 2 to 3 per person if these are being served with other nibbles and appetisers. (Prep time includes baking the cases if not using readymade vol-au-vent cases.) -- posted by French Tart

I got this off of dogster.com. I made a batch and pinched pea sized pieces for training treats. It literally made several hundred. My dog loved it. I gave him a baked one while rolling the other ones and he just sat there looking expectantly at me, for more! He even liked it unbaked. Serving size depends on how you cut it. And prep time is obviously more if you're doing the pea size pieces. -- posted by WI Cheesehead

Natural Drain Unclogger

Tue, 05 Jan 2010 19:26:43 -0500

Based on a recipe from my Shaws grocery stores Wild Harvest November 2009 holiday pamphlet. It says, Along with potato peels and onion skins often comes a clogged sink. Thankfully, there is a way to unclog sinks without sending toxic chemicals down the drain and out into the environment. Cook time is boiling water time. I can honestly say that I use this regularly in my kitchen sink and it works as well for me as Draino did. -- posted by mersaydees

Copycat Cracker Barrel 40th Anniversary Double Fudge Cola Cake

Sun, 17 Jan 2010 23:57:49 -0500

Cracker Barrel brought back their famous double fudge cola cake for their 40th anniversary and I was able to give their version a try. It was quite different from most of the usual copycat recipes out there, so perhaps their current version has been somewhat adapted over time. There are no nuts in this version. I did base my version on one I originally found on copycat.com, and I think I have it just about right. Expect a very moist, rich, deep dark chocolate sheet cake with a very fudgey thick frosting. -- posted by HeatherFeather

Honey for Burns

Some properties in honey might contribute to its ability to fight infection and promote healing. Its high sugar content allows it to draw infection and fluid from wounds by a process called osmosis. Raw honey prevents bacterial growth through its acidic pH and through the work of an enzyme that produces small amounts of hydrogen peroxide. -- posted by ~Rita~

Vanilla Vodka Almond Jigglers

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 10:52:45 -0500

This recipe for vegetarian-friendly, alcoholic almond gelatin jigglers (think Jello Jigglers meets Jello shots) combines vanilla vodka, uses seaweed-derived gelatin called agar-agar (as opposed to nondescript gelatin, which is likely to be animal-derived), and reduces paper/plastic waste (no cups). The ratio of water to alcohol is 1:1, so these jigglers are quite alcoholic! For better taste/less alcohol, you might consider reducing the amount of alcohol to 1 1/2 cups and increasing either the amount of water or milk to 2 1/2 cups (I would increase the milk, for more body and color). Of course, it's all a matter of personal taste and preference. The agar-agar powder can be found at your local South East Asian market. -- posted by Thuha

When I inquired about a cookbook with the recipe, the waitress went & got the recipe from the kitchen. This is posted in the same manner I got it, but I'll tell you that finding 1 gallon containers of broth is difficult. So I use 10 14oz cans, it's a little more, but just as good. I also usually use 2 poblanos. Using ready to go chicken tenders is a big time saver. I just sautee them in a little sesame oil & garlic before I dice them. This soup is very tasty and borderline addicitive. I've made several times since I got back. It is absolutley delicious the next day and freezes well. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. -- posted by Tina & Angie

Poison Ivy Infusion Relief - Jewelweed (Impatiens Capensis)

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 12:11:20 -0500

There is an interesting anecdote attached to this one. One summer, we found a mysterious and attractive wildflower out back of my bf's mom's house. Later the same summer, I contracted a horrific case of poison ivy. Close to three weeks of scratching, squirming, Calamine-encrusted misery ensued. During a heatwave, no less. I tried everything available over the counter to no avail. Reading up on wildflowers out of simple curiousity - I fortuitously discovered this plant I'd been curious about was called Jewelweed, or Spotted Touch- Me-Not. The field guide I was reading metioned that it's considred an excellent treatment for poison ivy. Right in our own backyard! After doing some research on how to prepare the stuff for use, I found the following instructions at www.altnature.com. It worked within a couple of days after everything else had failed. That it could be frozen as ice cubes had added benefits on a really hot day. Best of luck with this and please let me know if it works for you, too. : ) -- posted by Cecily Parsley

Easy Hand Sanitizer

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 12:45:20 -0500

I wash and sanitize my hands frequently, because I work with animals. I needed something that could clean my hands but not dry them out. So I made this! My fiancee uses this as an aftershave, and sometimes uses it as a mouthwash. I'm not sure about that last bit, but it's definitely nice as an aftershave. Tea tree oil is a very strong antibacterial, antifungal, and has viricidal qualities, but it's not for those with very sensitive skin. I have fairly sensitive skin, and I can use it like this. Lavender and Lime oil are also good antibacterials. To make it manly, use cedar wood oil in place of the lavender. Do not use it if your life is in danger. -- posted by IndinaMarie

Bacon Cheeseburger Soup ( Paula Deen )

Wed, 03 Feb 2010 22:37:29 -0500

This recipe is from Cooking with Paula Deen magazine Nov/Dec 2009. This soup is warm and hearty. People of all ages loved it and it is a fast family supper. You can double it easily and freeze the second portion for later. It tastes more like a regular cheeseburger to me. I garnished mine with some cheddar cheese as well. Served with my Hamburger Bun Toasts recipe also from Paula Deen in that same issue that she used to accompany it. Hope you like it. Enjoy ChefDLH -- posted by ChefDLH

Hamburger Bun Toasts

Wed, 03 Feb 2010 22:51:37 -0500

This recipe is from Cooking with Paula Deen magazine Nov/Dec 2009. It is an accompaniment to Bacon Cheeseburger Soup Recipe#411645 I posted, also by Paula Deen. These delicious cheese toasts have a nice zip with the mustard and worcestershire sauce along with a hearty helping of cheese. They are perfect dunkers for soup especially the soup above as you feel like with the two it is a burger on a bun. Easy to make and fast to make. Fun looking and unique. Enjoy!

Smoked Salmon Spread With Pears and Horseradish

Fri, 05 Feb 2010 08:38:15 -0500

This is an Austrian version of a smoked salmon spread. Horseradish is very popular in Austria and is used in many dips and sauces. The salmon used in this dish is not Lox, this is slowly smoked Alaskan Sockey and is flaked rather than cut. Enjoy it with some crusty Ciabatta bread and a glass of fruity white wine. -- posted by gemini08

Burger King Original Zesty Sauce

Fri, 05 Feb 2010 09:14:48 -0500

I love Burger King's Zesty dipping sauce, offered with their onion rings... which used to be somewhat palatable (no further comments about the rapidly diminishing quality and portions of today's fast food restaurant chains...). On each BK visit, I would routinely purchase additional Zesty sauces so I could take a good supply home with me... until the simple solution came when I opened my last remaining packet... "I can make this myself at home!"... And I did... -- posted by Bazaar®

Spice Cake That You Don't Tell Your Guests is Tomato Soup Cake

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 10:50:30 -0500

Based off Recipe #28776 with notable changes made. These would make AWESOME cupcakes. I think subbing soymilk would work but I had regular milk on hand so I just used that. I love using sunflower oil but I'm sure vegetable or canola oil would work in this. I like this with chocolate frosting. -- posted by the80srule
