So naughty-so very, very naughty!!
Okay guys, I need a receipe for Center Cut pork chops - not boneless. And, our grill is broken - so it would have to be cooked in the oven.
I do my chops one of two ways - marinated in BBQ sauce or rubbed in spices - then covered and cooked at a low temp for a couple of hours. (I like for the meat to fall off the bone) But, I want to try something different.
Any ideas?
What about cooking them normally and before you serve place a blob of apple sauce on and a slice of cheese place back in the oven till the cheese has melted.
I always just cover mine with pepper and pineapple chunks.

Dip in cracker crumbs mixed with egg
Fry in deep fryer until done
Now fry french fries in deep fryer
Yum Yum, eat and enjoy
I have one for the grill - I don't have a name for it or exact measurements. But it is one that you can't really mess up. :)
Ingredients:
1 chicken breast (for each person)
1 small/med. Zucchini - sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 plum/roma tomato - sliced 1/2 inch thick
2 tablespoons basil pesto
Cooking spray
Heat your grill to medium heat
Make a grill packet with aluminum foil - spray the inside of pack with cooking spray. Place the chicken breast in the middle, then layer with the zucchini and tomato. Top with pesto. Close up the packet - throw it on the grill for 20 minutes (or until the chicken is done).
Then enjoy!
This is so good. I always put more pesto on mine - but I really like pesto!
That sounds wonderful!
6 medium size carrots , 1 can of pineapple pieces , 500 ml orange juice - Peel and grate the carrots very finely. Drain the pineapple pieces but keep the syrup one side . Combine the carrots and pineapples together with the orange juice, if the salad is'nt sweet enough you can pour some of the syrup in. Refridgerate at least 2 hours.
Wow, marily! Sounds delicious to me!
I would give you a greenie right now if I could!
It is delicious, and it can be prepared in no time, plus it's healthy too ;)

Coconut Shrimp
Ingredients:
1 large egg
2/3 cup beer
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, divided
2 cups flaked coconut
24 large shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, preferably canola
Procedures:
In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, beer, baking powder and 1/2 cup of the flour. Place remaining 1/4 cup flour in a shallow dish. Place coconut in a separate shallow dish. Dredge shrimp in flour and shake off excess. Dunk shrimp in beer mixture and turn to coat. Roll shrimp in coconut until all sides are coated.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook 2 minutes per side, until cooked through or opaque.
Serve with the dipping sauce of your choice. Pina Colada sauce is the best! (if you can find it). This dish goes really well with Pilaf. :)
Okay, it is 7AM here - the fact that you have your dinner planned already has really impressed me! :) I haven't even had my coffee yet!
Its 7 a.m. here too.. lol. I may be a nerd, but I plan out all of my dinners a week ahead of time so I don't have to struggle everyday with "whats am I going to make for dinner". Planning ahead is a good thing, but I know planning your dinners a week ahead of time is too much, its just a habit. It gets on my hubby's nerves sometimes because he has to decide what he wants and when.. lol. :p
I actually used to be that discplined. I made "menus" for a 2 week period. So, I would know what to buy at the store and then what we were having.
It's been so long since I have done it - I forgot!
It does make it easier though!
I even write down what we're having each day on my calendar so I don't forget.. lol. I will probably grow out of this obsession eventually. I'm glad someone else has done this before though, I thought I was weird.. lol. :)
My friend's mom used to plan meals for months in advance. It was quite creepy really :p
That makes me feel a whole lot better.. lol. :pQuote:

Meal planning is very organized I think. :)
Next time you make mashed pumpkin add a little bit of cinnamon, you'll love the flavour. If you bake a chocolate cake add a spoonful of finely grated orange zest and 1 cup of buttermilk
* 2 large ripe bananas
* 1/2 tsp vanilla flavouring
* 175g butter
* 225g granulated sugar
* 275g self raising flour
* 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
* 3 eggs (beaten)
* 100g chocolate chips
Grease and line two 8 inch sandwich cake tins with greased greaseproof paper.
Peel the bananas and mash until smooth in a small bowl with vanilla flavouring.
Gently heat the butter and sugar in a saucepan until dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in flour and soda. Beat in eggs and mashed banana. Cool slightly. Stir in chocolate chips, and spoon into tin.
Cook at 170C for 35 minutes or until skewer inserted into center of cake comes out clean.
Decorate with melted chocolate and bananas if you wish.
Just made this and oh my the smells killing me I can't wait for it to cool :D
There must be a time difference - or you are really gung-ho this morning.
This sounds terrific!
A question though - is bicarbonate of soda - baking soda? And is greaseproof paper parchment paper?
I ask because - if there is a way to mess anything up while cooking - I will be the one to do it! :)
Wow... I just discovered this sticky... IM so excited now.
the last time I made banana bread... I left out the flour on accident, must have just skimmed over it on the recipe... I got brown banana goo instead.. lol
Here is a personal favorite of mine:
Chocolate Éclair Cake
3 ½ cups milk
2 pkg Fr. Vanilla instant Pudding
1 Cool whip tub (about 16 oz)
1 Choc Icing tub
1 box Graham crackers
Mix milk and pudding until thick, then fold in thawed Cool Whip. In 9x13 pan, lay out crackers to cover bottom then scoop in half the pudding mixture. Add another layer another graham crackers, then the rest of the pudding, and one last layer of crackers (this is the layer I try to make sure is even & fully covered). Next you will need to heat tub of icing in microwave for about 15-20 seconds. Pour icing on top to cover entire cake. Put in fridge. Icing will harden again.
As side notes, I usually use the low fat cool whip, low fat graham crackers & even have used sugar-free pudding. I do however use whole milk or no less than 2%. The milk makes a difference but not any other ingredient. I even buy off-brand. I find heating a tub of icing easier & more quick and still taste good.
Correct on both counts ;) I have to say I didn't use two rounds just one rectaingle tin and its turnt out really yummy.Quote:

I've been wanting to try this with a cream cheese icing. I wonder if it will be any good. I guess I'll never know until I test it! :p
Here's a recipe sure to add inches to your waistline, but that's why it's so darn good!
I'm not a sweet freak, but I can't stay out of this cake!
1 Yellow Cake Mix
1 can sweetened condensed milk
8 oz of sour cream
1 small 12oz container of whipped cream
Sweetened coconut ( as much as you please)
1/4 cup sugar
Prepare Cake mix per directions. ( I like to add a handful of coconut in the batter ) When finished cooking, immediately poke holes with a toothpick and drizzle the entire can of sweetened condensed milk over it and wait for it to cool.
Mix together sour cream and whipped topping and sugar together. Refrigerate until cake is cooled.
When ready , spread topping on cake... it will be a rather thick layer.
Top with coconut. I top mine with both toasted and un-toasted. Adds great texture and the toasted coconut looks nice.
Keep refrigerated.
here are a few more from my "recipe book" cnt say where I got them all, its nothing but a binder full of bits of paper and napkins ans such I've pulled from different people :)
