Irish Cream Cheesecake

Tue, 30 Dec 2008 19:24:50 -0500

We had a work gift exchange that involved "stealing" others gifts. Well, after all was said and done, I ended up with a huge bottle of Irish Cream Liqueur. This is great, but not if you don't drink like me! LOL!!! :-) I said to a few girls that I would find some yummy recipes that include Irish Cream and share it with them. Here is one that I ran across on the www.ifood.tv website. It appears to be slightly different from the other ones posted. The picture on the site looks incredible! ENJOY! -- posted by senseicheryl

Gravlax, Salt-Cured Salmon

Tue, 13 Jan 2009 19:06:35 -0500

With a sharp knife carefully slice on the diagonal to get slices as thin as you can without them falling to bits, leaving the skin. With practice you can become pretty good at this. Serve on bagels with cream cheese, a thin slice of onion and capers, and a squeeze of lemon. Or on toast, or crackers. The traditional Swedish way is on pumpernickel bread with equal parts dijon mustard, sugar, white vinegar emulsified with 3 parts regular olive or canola oil. -- posted by Kevinf

Mediterranean Dip

Mon, 02 Feb 2009 01:55:52 -0500

This is a Trader Joe recipe. It is such a delicious dip! I took it to a party and everyone wanted a copy of the recipe. The recipe suggests layering the ingredients into a pie plate or something sized similar. I made the mistake of thinking that was too big for the dip and used a smaller serving dish. By the time I was finished layering the ingredients, it was too full! I served this dip with pita crackers from Trader Joes, but you could use your own favorite dippers. This recipe looks unusual but it is knock out. -- posted by LifeIsGood

Corn and Black Bean Macaroni Salad - Tex Mex

Wed, 29 Apr 2009 12:23:11 -0400

Chill a beer for this nice and spicy dish! The elbows should be cooked al dente in well salted water to prevent broken mushy noodles. Do salt the water liberally. (2 teaspoons is not a lot once mixed with the rest of the ingredients) Seasons the pasta and avoids father salting in the recipe. This can be eaten as a side or a main balanced meal. I opted for yogurt and smart balance for better health. But you can use sour cream and mayo. -- posted by ~Rita~

Ceviche from Acapulco

Excellent meal for the summer, since there is no cooking involved and it is cool. Any thick, firm white fish can be used. The citrus juice cooks the fish. You can also add shrimp or scallops and substitute for part of the fish. This is adapted from "A Treasury of Great Recipes" by Mary and Vincent Price.

Tue, 30 Jun 2009 00:42:20 -0400

The name "Chocolate Banana Cake" does not do this dessert justice. Not even remotely.

Just incredible. Add nuts for extra flavor. The recipe comes from a Canadian Living cookbook and can be found on the Canadian Living website.

Lemon Verbena Ice Cream from a French Country Herb Garden

Tue, 30 Jun 2009 11:53:00 -0400

I grow many old fashioned and unusual herbs in my garden in France, and although many people know Lemon Balm, Lemon Verbena is not so well known, which is such a shame! For me the flavour is MUCH more lemony and intense than Lemon Balm - think lemon sherbet, and you have a good idea of what to expect! The plant has graceful pointed leaves that are a gorgeous pale green in colour. Just scrunching a leaf in your hand to release the aromas can help fatigue or a headache. This is an ice cream I came up with to refresh and revive even the most jaded of palates refreshing and with an amazing lemony zing! You should be able to source Lemon Verbena at any good Farmer's Markets - alternatively, make friends with someone who grows it! (Prep time includes the time to infuse the leaves to extract the flavour.) -- posted by French Tart

Spooktacular Halloween Pudding Cups

Sat, 31 Oct 2009 14:17:46 -0400

Super fun Halloween treats that the kids are sure to enjoy. Easy to make and look great to!! I got the idea off of another website that used chocolate pudding but I thought using vanilla and dying it orange would be really cool since the pudding and oreos together would be traditional Halloween colors. This recipe can be easily divided in half and so on. For the pudding I used the kind that you cook verses the instant. I think the cooked pudding has a much nicer and thicker consistancy. The amount below for the oreos is a guesstimate because it wouldn't let me put down 1 large package of oreos but either way just one regular package of oreos crushed is what you need. Enjoy! -- posted by mamawheezy

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 01:36:53 -0500

This is a fantastically airy and well spiced pumpkin pie. This recipe was entered in the Martha Stewart Show's first annual pie baking contest in November of 2009. Even those who do not like pumpkin pie will love this! Baked in a gingersnap cookie crust and topped with cinnamon, vanilla meringue, this pie is sure to please! -- posted by CoreyMB

Paula Deen Sweet Potato Balls

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 15:31:49 -0500

This recipe came directly from the FoodNetwork.com website, and they were highlighted as one of Paula's Thanksgiving 2009 foods in her Thanksgiving Special aired in 19 November 2009 on Food Network . The original airing of the "Thanksgiving Special" was 10 November 2005...just in case you want to look back in the archives! Some say the recipe is too sweet. So, you may want to test-drive the recipe for your own sweetness. These suggestions you might make as I did: I let the sweet potatoes fully cool before mashing, I omitted the orange zest and put just a small amount of orange juice (not a huge orange taste fan), and cut back the brown sugar to 1/3 of a cup. One reviewer said that she only used 1/2 of a large marshmallow after she had them oozing out with a full marshmallow. However, Paula Deen states that if you overcook your Sweet Potato Balls then the marshmallow will burst out of the ball. So be careful not to over-bake them if you choose a whole marshmallow. I chose to roll the balls in chopped pecans and then placed each ball in a cup of a nonstick muffin tin (the recipe made exactly 12 large balls--enough to fill a full tin). I also made some with the coconut mixture. Another option would be to roll them in oats, sugar, & cinnamon OR coconut & pecans. I put the filled muffin tin in the refrigerator overnight and baked the next day after removing my turkey from the oven. They came out perfectly! -- posted by McGowan Family

Fru... Fru... Fruit Salad!

Tue, 08 Dec 2009 17:06:23 -0500

As a child, I remember my grandmother making this salad for me. I do not 100% know the whole recipe but this is all I could remember. I love this salad because i never liked eating fruits when I was little. This is a salad that even a fruit hater like me would learn to love fruits. ENJOY! (: [ BASICALLY... This recipe you could use any fruits but the ingredients I put down is what i usually put in my salad. Sometimes my grandmother would put some cooked shrimp inside and it turns out amazing! ] -- posted by BOOMBAMBONBON!

Ed's Sugar Cookies

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 11:27:27 -0500

This is my husband's recipe and it has withstood the test of time. These delicious cookies are light & airy and fun to decorate. My husband is the Sugar Cookie king in our family and our grown kids still anxiously ask each year if Dad is making sugar cookies this Christmas :). Ed prefers using insulated cookie sheets. Yield and baking time may vary, depending on rolled dough thickness, the size of the cookie cutters and oven accuracy. NOTE: Chilling time is included in prep time. Overnight refrigeration is best, but if you are in a hurry, you can get by with chilling the dough for at least two hours. Do not skip the chilling step or the cookies may not hold their shape. -- posted by Kat's Mom

Cranberry Salad

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 01:45:07 -0500

Not your typical canned cranberry jelly that grandma used to serve. Thanks to my mother-in-law for this recipe. The nuts are optional and mostly change texture, not taste. If you can't find cranberry Jell-O, use two raspberry and one cherry. -- posted by Michael Wodnicki

Red Onion and Pomegranate Relish

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 01:49:47 -0500

I saw the idea on a cooking show but could not locate it anywhere online so I decided to experiment and came up with this recipe. It is so simple that I probably shouldn't post it but it is a nice accompaniment to many dishes. With the Pomegranate Arils the dish just sparkles and is very festive looking. -- posted by HuldaW

Source: Anne Lindsay's New Light Cooking This is a creamy sauce that is delicious with cakes, pies or fresh fruit. The other lemon sauce I have posted has eggs but this one is egg free! Cooking time is refrigeration time. -- posted by Dreamer in Ontario

Cucumber-Only Salad

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:28:26 -0500

Simple, without the onion and tomatoes that most cucumber recipes call for. A lot of people in my family hate the texture of those veggies so this is my alternative. Couldn't get any easier than this. -- posted by Stefanie828

A Trifle Decadent

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 20:08:23 -0500

This delightful, low-cal trifle comes from Canadian Homemakers Magazine /2004. Thickened yogurt and angel food cake replace whipped cream and pound cake to make a luscious light trifle. Berries can be frozen or fresh. Garnish with fresh berries and some mint leaf for a pretty presentation. The custard part can be made ahead of time and yogurt must be drained of it's liquid ahead of time -- posted by Inverchef

Animal-Free Raspberry Vodka Gelatin Jigglers

Fri, 22 Jan 2010 14:51:59 -0500

This recipe for vegetarian-friendly, alcoholic gelatin jigglers (think Jello Jigglers meets Jello shots) combines fruit flavored 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 the amount of boiling water to 2 1/2 cups. 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

Red Pepper Vichyssoise

Sat, 23 Jan 2010 23:31:30 -0500

This is a lovely soup to serve in the summertime, as it is served chilled. If you prefer, you can substitute sour cream for the creme fraiche. To make creme fraiche, just combine 1 cup of whipping cream with 2 tbsp of buttermilk. Once combined, cover and let stand at room temperature for 8 hours. This will make a cup of creme fraiche. Prep and cooking time does not include the chill time! -- posted by breezermom
