Twice-Baked Potatoes

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 17:28:41 -0500

These twice-baked potatoes, stuffed with cheddar cheese and bacon, are just the way my mother used to make them. I always loved the addition of the green onions. When you are feeling indulgent (these potatoes may not be for the weight conscious!) and are in the mood for a good steak and potatoes, try these! They are also good served alongside prime rib, chicken, or pork (even good all by themselves). Double or triple the recipe for your dinner parties. And, they can even be prepared upto 2 days ahead...just cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to do the final bake. -- posted by Alan in SW Florida

Super Easy Pasta Carbonara

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 17:31:04 -0500

This recipe is from The Silver Palate cookbook. It comes together very quickly - especially if you precook the bacon. I usually do it on the weekend in the oven, remove, drain and paper towels on a plate in the fridge. For the weekday meal, I take the bacon out of the fridge, rough chop it and microwave for about 45 seconds. It's easy and delicious. -- posted by Elle Anderson

Caribbean Grilled Pork With Pineapple Salsa

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 18:52:26 -0500

The ripe, tropical flavors of this salsa couldn't find a better partner than the curry-inspired rub. Tastes wonderful on pork, chicken or turkey! Recipe from Pamela Anderson & Fine Cooking 79, pp. 42 July 1, 2006 edition. Have tweaked the recipe a bit!! See if you like it! :) -- posted by Manami

V's Simple Savory Mexican Quiche

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 08:42:45 -0500

This quiche is beautiful & delish! If you crave something savory for breakfast try my simple quiche. These are ingredients I always have on hand and can whip this up a head of time or in the morning. Measurements can be altered to taste. If you like spicy, savory add more, if not, add less. The salsa gives this quiche a nice kick and the flavors of cilantro, sausage and potatoes add to the taste and textures. This is a family favorite in my house. Great for overnight company as it feeds alot. Serve with sliced avocado, sour cream or salsa on the side. -- posted by Vseward (Chef~V)

Sweet Pork Stew

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 08:44:22 -0500

I found this recipe in a Life magazine a few years ago. As the article says, it is just as good with a glass of wine and guests as it is with a cold beer in front of the TV. -- posted by Bread'n'Butter

Pigs in a Blanket for Big Kids....also Called Hogs in a Sleeping

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 10:46:32 -0500

My mother used to make these for card parties. I make them on those nights when the hubby and I want munchies and not a big meal. I have also made them for football parties, and people love them. They are super easy, but really tasty. Some tasty sausage choices are the chicken habanero with jack cheese, jalapeno and cheese, turkey n cheddar, or just regular smoked sausage. You will find them over next to the hot dogs, and there are usually 4 or 5 to a package (Johnsonville or Bistro Sensations are good). -- posted by CharlieGal

Saté Burgers

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 19:36:49 -0500

Peanuts, cilantro, brown sugar, lime juice, and fish sauce create the flavors of the Indonesian meat skewers called saté. Using equal amounts of ground turkey and pork keeps these burgers lean. Serve on a bed of brown rice with spinach and lime wedges. From Cooking Light. -- posted by SweetJezebel

This is a great cheeseball recipe I picked up somewhere over 30 yrs ago. It's still a family favorite! This one is better if you let it age a day or so to let the garlic age in. -- posted by Chef TH

Brunswick Stew, Quick-Cooked

Mon, 09 Nov 2009 10:49:35 -0500

As a southern girl, I love good Brunswick Stew. This is a quick cooking version that can be thrown together in a relatively short time and can be used as a "base" if there are other things you like to add to your stew. The recipe displayed here uses store-bought prepared pork barbecue, however, if you have left-over pork or beef barbecue, use it by all means! TIP: if you have ever used Emeril's "Essence" in any of your cooking, sprinkle the chicken liberally with it before adding to the stew. -- posted by libragay42

Chestnut Stuffing With Pancetta and Fennel

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 00:02:58 -0500

I love chestnuts! This is difficult because I don't love preparing them & I really dislike getting chestnuts that turn out to be moldy. To avod the dissappointment of moldy nuts & the pain of burned fingers I will splurge & get jarred chestnuts. They are spendy so they fall into the "very special occasions" category. Oh so good. I jumped on this recipe when I read it in The Seattle Times. They attribute it to "Sunday Suppers at Lucques: Seasonal Recipes from Market to Table" by Suzanne Goin with Teri Gelber. Thank you Suzanne & Teri. I can't wait to try it. -- posted by Buster's friend

Breakfast Burrito (With Pepperoni & Peppers)

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 00:11:17 -0500

Breakfast burritos are fast & easy to make. What makes this one unique from others is the greek seasoning & combination of vegys. I found this on another web site & find it really tasty when I used my favorite pepperoni. You could substitute sausage or salami instead. -- posted by Mustang Sally 54269

Paula Deen "pig on a Stick" With Dipping Sauce

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 00:25:27 -0500

This is a variation on Paula Deen's recipe. Her recipe calls for making your own jerk seasoning. I just use a store bought blend. This recipe was a huge hit at my party! People were waiting by the oven for the second batch. You can cut the recipe for the dipping sauce in half if you don't think you will use it all. I had a lot leftover. Many people ate the pork straight up with no sauce. Thanks Paula! -- posted by Chef #1107673

Roasted Cranberry Spiced Pork Tenderloin

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 08:58:05 -0500

Spicy, savory, and easy. Just pan seared and finished in the oven. Garnish this with walnuts, a creamy gorgonzla dip and you have an amazing easy main course. Add some savory scalloped potatoes and roasted green beans for a great dinner. And a salad and some fresh bread for a great dinner party. TIP: Make both the blue cheese dip and the cranberry sauce ahead of time. That way, all you have is to cook the pork. Just a little planning makes for an easy dinner. -- posted by SarasotaCook

Homemade Pizza

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 12:33:45 -0500

I was trying to come up with something quick and inexpensive to cook for my family but something with a ton of flavor. I just threw this together. My family loves this pizza. Better than anything you can buy. This is my family's favorite. But you can really make it with whatever you have around the house. I use mango salsa for a little fruit taste but you can use any kind of salsa, tomatoes, even spaghetti sauce and it will still taste great. -- posted by Chef #553668

Chorizo Tomato Sauce (For Pasta or Chicken)

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 12:47:12 -0500

I'll continue to tweak this one, I'm sure, but this is my current version. At these amounts, it makes a good bit of sauce. Number of servings listed is my guesstimate for pasta, which is what I originally came up with this for. I had some leftover in the fridge this afternoon, though, and tried it over a leftover chicken breast. Yum! Makes me wonder what else this might work on... -- posted by Cluich

Red-Cooked Pork Chops

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 18:57:07 -0500

"Red" refers to a Chinese style of cooking where the food is cooked with soy sauce (the chops will turn red). Meat must marinate 2-4 hours. The original recipe called for 2 Tbsp minced onion in the marinade as well, but I leave them out as I don't like onions. -- posted by The Wallaces

Honey-Mustard Pork Roast With Bacon

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 01:27:16 -0500

I saw Giada from Food Network make this and it looked so delicious I had to try it, and it was FANTASTIC! The directions on the FN site do not say to lay the twine in the pan FIRST, THEN add the roast, then the bacon. But this is how she did it on the show and it looks much easier to tie it up that way. I also double the garlic as we love garlic. I hope you try this for any special occasion. Time does not include resting time. -- posted by Scoutie

Noah's Ark Stew

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 00:52:46 -0500

This is pure comfort food! The sweetness of the roasted vegetables and apples complements the succulence of the meat and beans. Either leftover or raw meat can be used. Although roasting the vegetables adds an extra depth of flavor, this can be easily adapted for the crockpot. The family lapped it up. Enjoy! -- posted by Danska

Pork Roast to Die For

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 08:05:35 -0500

I needed something tender and delectable--moist and melt-in-your-mouth like, that didn't require a whole lot of fuss. One pork roast and a crock pot's help later, perfection. I can't even tell you. How. Good. It. Really. Is. NOTE: When I say "boneless pork roast," it must be one of a boneless "blade/Boston/shoulder" cut. Every store labels them differently, but look for at least one of these labels. If it doesn't say that, don't bother. The roast should be well marbled, and have a decent layer (1/4-inch?) of fat on one side. -- posted by Battle in Seattle

Dutch Oven Camping Breakfast Love

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 08:17:50 -0500

Not the most descriptive recipe title, perhaps, but this is what my friend calls it and I like the name, so there you go. Nothing wakes up your camp-mates like the warmth of a campfire and the sounds and smells of sausage, bacon, and veggies. You will NEED a REAL camping dutch oven (get the cast-iron kind with the little legs and the lip on top for putting coals on the lid - if you camp much, this is well worth the investment). You will also need two hot-pads, tongs, and a heat-resistant spatula. A long-sleeve shirt and leather gloves are recommended so that you don't singe your arms and hands. Note that preparation time consists mostly of letting the fire mature. -- posted by Da Huz

All American Corn Dogs

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:15:21 -0500

I don't often deep fry food at home, but these are so worth it! These are a staple at fairs and theme parks across America. You could use an 8oz box of jiffy corn muffin mix instead of the first 6 ingredients but you probably won't find this outside of the US.

I recommend serving with a dollop of sour cream. And cornbread. All amounts for seasonings are estimates--I tend to season as I go and according to taste; I have a feeling these are underestimates. I will be sure to update the next time I make this with adjusted amounts. I used a smoked (pre-cooked) ham steak for this; I have also made it with other kinds of ham, with turkey sausage, and without meat altogether with positive results. -- posted by Tlharin

Crock Pot Chinese Pork Stew

This Crock Pot Stew is easy to make and allows the meat to become very tender while cooking. It has a Chinese taste due to the fish sauce and goes great with rice. -- posted by ChrisI

Feijoada (Brazilian Black Bean and Mixed Meat Stew) With Orange

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:17:55 -0500

Traditionally eaten on Wednesday's and Saturday's throughout Brazil with white rice and oranges (amongst other things), this special and rich meaty slow cooked stew has a depth of flavour using simple ingredients that could bring 'ooohs' and 'aaaahh's' from across the Atlantic I'm sure. I save my version for special occasions when I want a really hearty shared meal and I love the way the beans melt into the sauce lending their luxurious almost creamy texture to the finished dish. Originally this was made by African slaves using fatty offal scraps and as tasty as it was (I've tried this version and it is pretty good!) many people nowadays, including myself, make it lighter and use better quality meats. The Orange and Coriander salad is not compulsory but comes very highly recommended. Absolutely Outstanding. -- posted by robd16

Meatball, Chestnut and Red Wine Braise

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 18:19:40 -0500

I love chestnuts but I rarely buy them fresh and why should I when the vacuum packed ready peeled ones are so good? Braised with meatballs, onions and red wine, this hearty dish is perfect served with mash potato but I also serve it with white rice if the mood takes me as it often does (it's something about the sweet red wine flavour chestnuts and the rice that I love) This is a real winter warmer y'all and perfect after having been out in the cold. Enjoy! -- posted by robd16
