Quick Chicken-And-Cheese Tamales

Mon, 17 Nov 2008 01:26:25 -0500

Inspiring Idea To make his tamales, Guillermo Pernot of Cuba Libre in Philadelphia mashes masa dough and a slow-braised pork filling together in a saucepan instead of assembling the tamales one by one. He also steams the tamales in aluminum foil instead of the traditional corn husks Quick Take Grace Parisi mixes store-bought rotisserie chicken and cheddar cheese into a quick dough, then she wraps the tamales in plastic before steaming them.

Turkey Sloppy Joes

Thu, 27 Nov 2008 15:24:24 -0500

I adapted a popular beef slow cooker recipe to the stovetop and modified the ingredients to better enhance ground turkey (beef base--beef bouillon concentrate--is key for making it taste like hamburger). Even my picky six-year old gobbled this up. My search for the perfect recipe for sloppy joes is finally over! -- posted by Picholine

Almond Chip Cheese Ball

Tue, 02 Dec 2008 00:48:23 -0500

I grabbed this from a recipe book at my mother's when I was raiding her cookbook collection. It sounds like it could be good for a party and is a change from the savory cheese balls. The book suggests serving it with ginger snaps and vanilla wafers. Cooking time does not include overnight chilling time. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

Hummus is one of my favorite foods and I also love deviled eggs. So, when I saw this in a flyer handed out for the 'Summer Fresh Hummus' company I wanted to jot it down. You could surely use the discarded yolks for something else so it doesn't feel wasteful. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

Sun, 21 Dec 2008 01:09:42 -0500

Very moist and cheesy burgers! Perfect for your cookout or anytime. These were featured on the local news for tailgating recipes for the Packers at Lambeau Field.

It took some tweaking but I have turned this into an art. This can also be made in the microwave!! -- posted by College Girl

Bacon and Horseradish Deviled Eggs

Tue, 30 Dec 2008 21:23:51 -0500

Come on,you know that sounds good! I developed these after attempting to overcome an addiction to bacon and horseradish dip I developed on my recent trip to the States. You can even make these vegetarian by using the Bacos bacon bits that are made out of soy instead of the actual bacon. The recipe can be scaled up pretty easily for bigger crowds. Also, this is one of those times when I am not totally clear on how to translate an ingredient from UK to US. I used what is called 'horseradish sauce' here in the UK. Which, I remember being somewhere in between prepared horseradish and horseradish cream in the States. So, I put one but you can probably use either. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

Famous Football Day Cheesy Potato Casserole

Wed, 31 Dec 2008 18:13:33 -0500

My friend Misty made this every Sunday when our families got together to watch football. She would never give me the exact recipe until she moved away and felt sorry for me! It is sinfully good! She likes it with the corn flakes but I prefer Ritz crackers on mine. If you use Ritz crackers you really don't need to saute' them in butter. I like to use a 9x13 glass pan and I wait for it to cool down so it cuts into more precise squares. I hope you enjoy! -- posted by 861236

Fried Green Tomato BLT (Bacon, Lettuce & Tomato Sandwich)

Sun, 11 Jan 2009 20:10:38 -0500

A terrific Southern twist on the classic BLT. The tang and crunch of the fried green tomato gives a wonderful balance to the bacon, lettuce, and mayo. For a crowd, increase the ingredients and put out the cooked bacon, lettuce leaves, and fried green tomatoes separately... and, let everyone build their own sandwiches. Great football fare!! -- posted by Alan in SW Florida

Creamy Coleslaw With Bell Peppers & Red Onion

Fri, 16 Jan 2009 19:19:25 -0500

Although I usually think of coleslaw as a summertime side dish, it seems to go really well with my Super Bowl spread. I serve pulled pork with baked beans and some of this lovely, creamy coleslaw, then sit back and collect the compliments! Again, this makes a LOT, so adjust accordingly. This recipe is easily increased or decreased. Use a 16-ounce package of coleslaw mix for every six guests. -- posted by JackieOhNo!

Best Shrimp Creole Ever

Tue, 20 Jan 2009 18:09:22 -0500

My all time favorite recipe. It's great for parties with no specific meal time. I like to have it finished cooking about 30 minutes to an hour before anyone arrives and just keep it warm on the stove with rice, bowls and spoons on the counter next to the stove. As people get hungry they can help themselves. People who say they don't care for shrimp creole usually ask me for a copy of recipe after they try it. I read about half the other Shrimp Creole recipes and did not find any prepared like this one. The veggies stay crisp instead of mushy like other shrimp creole recipes I have tasted. I like to use small ( 50 to 60 per pound) raw shrimp that I clean myself. But the lady I got this recipe from likes to use leftover boiled shrimp and my neighbor I gave the recipe to like to use frozen pre-cleaned shrimp. It's good with any of them so choose what you prefer. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. I think you will. -- posted by Chef #1135408

Roasted Red Pepper Subs

Thu, 22 Jan 2009 01:08:18 -0500

When the occasion calls for a sophisticated sandwich, simply layer roasted red peppers, olive paste, goat cheese and peppery arugula on a crusty baguette. Found it when I was rummaging through some "old" recipes in EatingWell Magazine, January/February 1998. We enjoyed them thoroughly! -- posted by Manami

Tonight, I was feeling a bit hungry (because our dinner wasn't the best!) and one of my friends promised that each time she goes to the store she'll bring me fresh berries. Today, I received blueberries, blackberries, red raspberries, strawberries and grapes - so I decided to mix them all up & make some kind of cream for it ;). Not bad!!!

New England Lobster Roll

Tue, 27 Jan 2009 00:24:13 -0500

As soon as I land at Boston's Logan Airport, I rent my car and head to "Kelly's" on Revere Beach for a lobster roll (I'll have a roast beef sandwich later.) And being a lobster roll purist, no celery or lettuce for me...just lobster on my roll! Now,when I have the urge to splurge, I make them myself. After making these for friends, they've offered to buy the lobster tails, if I'll make them again...how can I say no to that offer? :) -- posted by Alan in SW Florida

Super Bowl Chili

Fri, 06 Mar 2009 17:32:51 -0500

This is the recipe I make every year for the Super Bowl, for my boyfriend and two dozen or so of his closest beer-drinking, football-watching friends. The problem with trying to find a good chili recipe is that what makes a "good" chili is a personal opinion; my idea of a great chili may be very different from yours. My chili is heavy on the meat, garlic and spice; rather rich-tasting, hearty, thick, fiery, and smoky. If that sounds like something you'd enjoy, I'm also going to include plenty of advice on how to adjust it to meet your tastes. Enjoy. Notes: To cut down on fat, lean, turkey/chicken Italian sausage can be used, without affecting the flavour or texture of the final meal. Extra-lean beef can also be used. -- posted by ClarenceKitchenDiva

Kinda Sorta Tex Mex Burger

Tue, 05 May 2009 17:17:30 -0400

I threw these together tonight when getting in the mood for ZWT5. When I think 'Texas' I often think of good BBQ and beef. When I think of Mexico I tend to think of a bit of heat and fresh tomatoes and avocado. So, I threw them together to make one yummy burger. So, it may not be real tex mex but it comes out of the ideas of Texas and Mexico that float around in my,admittedly odd, brain. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

Pumpkin Fluff Dip

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 14:15:34 -0400

This is a Midwestern classic apparently-- a school chum from Iowa told me about this recipe that's popular around fall and early winter, from having leftover cans of pumpkin from stocking up on sale but not wanting to make any more pumpkin pies-- they're popular for high teas, luncheon spreads, Superbowl parties, Thanksgiving and Christmas, or sitting on your can watching The Golden Girls. :D Since I didn't want to use actual marshmallow Fluff...this is my fluffy adaptation of this recipe that came out HEAVENLY. I could eat a drum of this stuff and not get bored of it! One 15 or 16 oz can of pumpkin works, or you can measure out 2 cups from a 28-oz can. You can also use 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice for the spicing but it tends to be overpowering, the subtler cinnamon and nutmeg is better. -- posted by the80srule

Rachel's Fried Ravioli

Tue, 13 Oct 2009 15:49:37 -0400

Very yummy and easy fried ravioli. Feel free to use your own homemade ravioli, I had coupons for Buitoni so I got their whole-wheat 4-cheese ravioli, it turned out great. Using this to make fried gnocchi works well too! (I especially love frying up whole wheat pumpkin gnocchi.) Makes an awesome kid pleaser, comfort food, and party favorite. -- posted by the80srule

This is a delicious appetizer to take to parties. For a taco dip, you could substitute cheddar cheese for the mozzarella, and salsa for the pepperoni and tomatoes. -- posted by Lainey6605

Artichoke Spinach Dip With Roasted Red Bell Peppers

Recipe courtesy Guy Fieri, It is easy - 6 minute prep time and it can be made ahead of time. Once you have prepared it, you need to warm it but that's free time to do other things. I have tweaked the recipe to suit our needs. :) -- posted by Manami

Don's Queso Dip

Wed, 30 Dec 2009 02:00:10 -0500

My dad started this recipe in our family. I grew up making it with my dad and after his death I have continued to make it. I have tweaked it to suit my family. Great to make for the Superbowl or a casual get together. All the spices are to taste. The measurements below are estimates, I rarely measure. Feel free to cut back on the Jalepeno if you don't like your food spicy. Also, instead of just plain ground beef, I have made it using left-over chili, just cut back on the spices then.Use more or less Milk to make cheese as thin/thick as you like, keep in mind the salsa will thin it out. You can use Pepper jack Velveeta if you cannot find the Mexican style. Also, leftover chili or 1/2 lb ground beef and 1/2 lb Chorizo instead of ground beef has had awesome results in my household, just cut back on seasonings. My mother likes to put this into a Crockpot to cook while she makes dinner. -- posted by Bekahbv

Chipotle Lime Wings

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 00:50:04 -0500

A smoky wing with medium heat. This way of preparing the wings is lower fat than deep fried and not as messy if you marinade them overnight and don't coat them in sauce again before serving. Also, if you are not able to find Tabasco Chipotle you can use any hot sauce with a little liquid smoke added. Toss them in a crock pot after they bake and they get extra tender and flavorful. -- posted by Scott Johnson

Spicy Coleslaw

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 10:04:22 -0500

I am a single woman living on my own. When I come home from work the last thing I want to do is slave over a hot stove or spend hours making dinner. I need quick and easy options. I try to utilize as many "convenience" items as I can in order to help spend less time in the kitchen and more time relaxing. I like to keep the condiments from takeout and fast food places if I think I can use them for something else. I like to experiement with recipes and make them simple. This has to be one of the easiest recipes I make. The only thing that might be a problem for some people who want to make it, is you need to be near a Chick-fil-a. I use their spicy dressing. I don't normally like typical coleslaw dressing, so this is my little spin on it. I also like to double and even triple the recipe up for family bbq's and potlucks at work. Feel free to add your own items that you like....diced red onion, julienned bell peppers, etc. That's what is so great about recipes, you can make them your own. Enjoy! -- posted by Chef #188403

Chicken Seafood Gumbo

A northerners attempt at good gumbo soup. Uses chicken, shrimp, crawfish and andouille sausage. Easy to make, basically dump and go. I make it in a 12 quart roaster oven. Can easily make smaller amounts by division. -- posted by SAM the Nuke [:-{)
