A creamy macaroni and cheese recipe that will satisfy both young and old made with Kerrygold cheese and butter from grass-fed cows. This mac and cheese reheats beautifully the next day with just a bit of milk or cream stirred in. Ole pointed out a few weeks ago that our children were growing up with a different food experience than either one of us had. Things like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, mac and cheese lunches and daily desserts are not the norm over here.
Rather than growing up on lunches made from blue boxes and smeared on sandwich bread, our kids are generally dining on leftover fried rice, sandwiches made from leftover meat and a variety of soups and pastas, which do, in fact, include macaroni and cheese every so often.So, when our Costco recently started stocking their shelves with Kerrygold products, I felt inclined to share one of my favorite macaroni and cheese recipes with you. The secret to this mac and cheese is in the farmhouse cheese that goes into the sauce. Good for you breakfast loaf « Haute Box. March 23, 2011 by allison n Raise your hand if you enjoy a warm slice chunk of quick bread in the morning or as a snack? Maybe it’s banana nut bread, blueberry bread, cinnamon swirl bread or pumpkin chocolate chip bread. My sweet tooth is growing just typing this.

Yipes! Guess what…Not this quick bread! This loaf contains only 1 tablespoon of oil AND zero butter and eggs.

I can see you sitting at home, staring at your computer screen, and scoffing at my bold statement. Driest pancake in the world? Yeah, right. How would you even know? But this is the truth, my friends. Let me share my story with you. A few years back, I made chocolate chip pancakes. Quickly flash to the next morning. Still cold. Confusion. Was the microwave broken? I got angry, as one will when they want food and want it now. When I took it out, the pancake was slightly less cool. It took me a few hours to realize what had happened. It only stands to reason that my pancake was so utterly dry that there wasn't enough water in it to be absorbed by the microwaves.
Thus, the world's driest pancake was born. And to think I took a bite... Luckily, this Garlic Parmesan Pull-Apart Bread is definitely not dry.

Eggs in a basket was the first meal I ever cooked. I was in 5th grade, and it was a Sunday morning at my best friend's house after a sleepover. We woke up hungry, and for some reason his parents weren't home.
This confused me--my parents would never do that--but more important than confusion was the fact that I was terribly hungry, and I didn't see how that problem was going to be solved, since his house never had any cereal in it. "We'll make eggs in a basket," my friend said, pulling out a loaf of bread, a jug of oil, and a carton of eggs. You mean, we'll be cooking? I wondered. This was a novel idea. The resulting breakfast was awesome: runny yolk and crisp bread dripping with oil (we filled the skillet so much oil it was basically deep-fried). Ideally, make this with slices of toast cut thick. I guess I have a fondness for very fast and simple eggs + bread dishes, my love of "eggy bread" evidence of this, which is basically French toast without sweetness or spices. #58 Asian-Style Dumplings and Prawns Soup. Homemade Samoas « Yeah, that’s right.
I made homemade Samoas. OK, so these are a bit more time-consuming to make than your average cookies (there are a few assembly-related steps), but they are so worth it.

Big Red Kitchen: Cinnamon Roll Pancakes. The original and unique Cinnamon Roll Pancake recipe created by Robin Sue! My little Deven loves pancakes and wants me to make them all the time, but I don’t often enough.
Late last night my friend had spotted this Cinnamon Bun Pancake Recipe from the blogisphere and posted it on her Facebook status suggesting for her daughter to make them. Wow, Cinnamon Bun Pancakes, that would be a winner in my house too. So I went to bed with pancakes dancing in my head. I dreamed up ways to make this pancake recipe look and taste more like a cinnamon roll. I wanted a Cinnamon Roll Pancake that had a Cinnamon Roll’s telltale swirl, here is what I did… I created a typical cinnamon roll filling and placed it in a pastry bag to be swirled over the pancakes as they cooked.
After pouring 1/4 cup pancake batter in a hot skillet, I swirled the cinnamon filling mixture over top. Mix until smooth and pour into a second pastry bag just like you did with the cinnamon mixture above. Another Thing of Interest! Pull Apart Lemon Coffee Cake. The title says "cake" but I really feel that "bread" better describes what this is. Sweet yeasty dough cut and slathered with butter and lemon infused sugar is baked and then spread with lemon cream cheese icing.
Once its iced you can just peel the slices off, no need to cut (who has time to find a knife anyways??) When I think coffee cake I think dense, moist, and sweet.. this is more soft, lemony, and sweet-ish. Bread is a better description. However, it really doesn't matter what you call it, its not going to be around for long after you make it. I found the recipe at 17 and Baking and I knew that I *had* to make it for brunch. The dough is a bit sticky so having a stand mixer helps form it without getting it all over your hands.
It also helps to have a ruler as a guide for cutting the strips of dough before stacking them and cutting again. This made the house smell amazing..bread baking + lemon sugar mmm. The loaf gets spread with lemon cream cheese icing while its still warm. 1. 2. Sausage Kebabs | The Family Kitchen. Broccoli Bites for Kids.

Steak au Poivre - The Showstopper. I have a comment on this comment, then I have a comment for the OP. To Amy: Removing to foil is simply a way to keep the steaks warm whilst resting (FOR 5 MINUTES AT LEAST… ALWAYYYS!). When the OP says remove to foil, he/she doesn’t mean to wrap them tightly. They mean to place them in a plate, and form a loose ‘covering’ of foil. This will simply trap some of the heat and allow it to remain warm, without trapping too much moisture. To the OP and to anyone else who decides to try ‘flambe’: It is important to note: When you add cognac or any other high proof liquour to a hot pan, then ignite, you are not burning the alcohol itself, per se. . - Never light alcohol while there is an open flame/heat source.
. - Notice how in the OP, they remove the pan from the stove and then light. . - Keep a heavy lidded pan nearby, just in case things Do go awry (if you follow the first 2 tips, they won’t) - Always have at least an ABC rated fire extinguisher within arm’s reach. How to cook perfect quiche lorraine. Ah, it's picnic time of year again: an excuse, for the lazy ("spontaneous") among us to empty our wallets on the counters of fancy delicatessens in order to furnish the impromptu "al fresco feasts" the media demands of us. (Somehow, it's easier to hand over a banknote for a couple of sausage rolls when the sun's shining.) While I'm a sucker for luminous green olives and pungent cheeses worth more than my flat, I can't muster any sort of excitement for a supermarket quiche, so sadly damp and flabby in its foil tray.
This classic French pastry has been done a major disservice by mass production: however imaginative the filling (I recently encountered one studded with meatballs, the memory of which still keeps me awake), they bear little resemblance to the delicately wobbling, full-flavoured beauties you can turn out at home. A quiche is essentially a rich baked custard, encased in crisp savoury pastry – even a real man should be able to see the virtues of that. A question of pastry Cream 1. Cheesy baked artichoke dip. In college i was a waitress and bartender at The Loring Bar & Cafe in Minneapolis. it is where i met alex, so it will always hold a very special place in my heart. it was a really great place to work - cool co-workers, great customers and excellent food. the one thing that we were known for was artichoke dip. i can't tell you how many times i ate that for dinner. it was incredible but since The Loring closed no other artichoke dip has even came close to replacing it. i have tried several recipes for artichoke dip that really sucked. too dry - to heavy - not enough flavor - i have covered them all. but this recipe is the last artichoke dip recipe i will ever need. it is similar to the Loring recipe - dare i say - it might be even better. let me put it this way - this is THE BEST artichoke dip!
I apologize for the weird measurements - i doubled the original recipe because it just didn't make enough! Alex did a beautiful job of modeling the dip :) Yield: Makes about 2 2/3 cups Preheat broiler. Broiled Lemon Herb Chicken. Sometimes it just pays to be nice. I like to regularly share links on the Facebook page, not only to other blogger's recipes, but also to familiar corporate sites and magazines, but especially to freebies and bargains. One day recently I shared a link about a Walmart rollback price for the fabulous All You magazine, a personal favorite of mine.
I was soon after that the recipient of a copy of the All You Eat Well Save Big Cookbook (available at Walmart, or used on Amazon) where I ran across this recipe for broiled chicken. One of the great things about this cookbook is it offers the best of All You magazine's low cost recipes, for some easy and basic weeknight dinners that are fast and all under $2.50 a serving. The original recipe for this one came in at about 73 cents a serving (for 1-1/2 pounds of thighs), and even with my adaptations not much more than that, so not only is it fast and tasty, but it's also economical!
Adapted from All You Eat Well Save Big Cookbook. Focaccia. This is the real deal focaccia. The kind infused with herb oil and left for a long cold rise overnight in the fridge to get the best flavor. It's soft, chewy, and savory all at the same time. You can pile on toppings like cheese and sundried tomatoes but I like it best plain and ready to dip into some oil and balsamic vinegar. There are a lot of recipes for quick and easy focaccia but if you have the extra time to let it rise overnight in herb oil it's worth it.
You get to reap the delicious delicious rewards for your patience. What gives the bread its flavor is a herb infused oil. EDIT: You won't use the entire cup of oil in the bread. 1/4 cup goes on the tray, then 1/4 cup spooned on top, then after the rise in the fridge you add UP to a 1/4 cup. To incorporate air bubbles into the dough and to further knead it the focaccia gets stretched and folded three times. First you stretch the dough out on a floured surface to twice its size. After 30 minutes you stretch and fold again. Focaccia. Herb Butter Mushrooms With Smoked Mozzarella. Bacon, Egg, and Toast Cups. Ratatouille’s ratatouille. Cruft: Lasagna Cupcakes.
