Table for 7: BBQ Beef Biscuits We get a bit tired of just meatloaf and meatballs when it comes to ground beef/turkey dishes.

Spicy Black Bean Stuffed Peppers I like to stuff stuff. Chicken, turkey, tacos, bras, cookies, potatoes, brownies, bellies… any old thing, really. It’s almost always a fabulous idea (well, not the bra one). So go. Spicy Black Bean Stuffed Peppers Preheat your oven to 400°F. Cut a long slit, lengthwise, along the center of each pepper. Heat olive oil in a medium sauce pan set over medium heat and add your chopped onion. Add the garlic and stir constantly for 30 seconds, just until fragrant. Add your drained and rinsed black beans along with 1/4 cup water. Stir in your spices. Cover, set the heat to low, and let the beans simmer in spices for at least 15 minutes but the longer the better. After simmering, the beans should be thick and slightly mushy. Add corn and stir to combine. Divide the bean mixture into each pepper and sprinkle them with Colby Jack cheese.

Cornbread Fritters Quick and Easy Recipe Corn Bread Fritters I'm a big fan of corn bread and I suppose it stems from my youth where often times our evening meals consisted of corn bread and milk. Mama made our corn bread in a black iron skillet and I liked it hot right out of her old wood cook stove. Sometimes I would watch as she mixed the corn meal adding the milk and sometimes an egg with her hands and the hot pan had grease saved from cooking country cured ham or bacon saved from breakfast and added to the cast iron fry pan. I also have come to like corn bread fritters. Fried Cornbread Fritters Recipe Ingredients * 1 1/2 cups - hot water* 2 cups - self-rising cornmeal* 2 - eggs Directions Mix together and fry in an iron skillet with 1/2 cup cooking oil. Some folks like to add whole kernal corn. Serves 4-8 from The Tammy Wynette Cookbook"Queen of Country Music"
Gnocchi Mac & Cheese Ahhhh mac and cheese. Those mere words stir up feelings of comfort...home....the food you loved as a kid. If you asked a 100 people what their favorite comfort food was, I'm guessing close to half would say mac and cheese. Why is that the combination of cheese and pasta can make our mouths water? I'm all about trying different kinds of mac and cheese recipes and this one was no exception. I saw this one on Noble Pig's site and knew it would be in my oven. The gnocchi get's a little puffy in the oven and the cheese get's a little crunchy. It's heavenly.

Perfect Mac-n-Cheese « My Cooking Quest November 13, 2008 by joejhorn A few weeks ago I started a quest for some good mac and cheese. Nancy makes a killer mac-n-cheese but I wanted my own. I’m sure I frustrate the crap out of Nancy sometimes because I’m always looking for something better when it comes to food and recipes. My first attempt was with a Jamie Oliver version that didn’t include a bechamel sauce but instead called for mixing the cooked pasta with the cheese and then baking it. The second version, I made a few nights ago for my best bud Chad, Nancy and the boys. Chad is up from San Francisco and has been visiting for the past week. Last night was particularly funny though since you can customize your player characters. Well back to the mac-n-cheese. Chad, who is like me, super-competitive and a bit of a perfectionist said “Let’s do it again and do it right this time!” Perfect Mac-n-Cheese (serves 4 as a side dish) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beecher’s Flagship Cheese Sauce (makes 4 cups) Remove from the heat.
Braided Spaghetti Bread » The official blog of America's favorite frozen dough We are carb lovers at our house, so when I saw the Braided Spaghetti Bread recipe in the Rhodes Home Baked Family Favorites with frozen dough cookbook I knew we would love it. This is a really simple recipe; it just takes a little planning for thawing the dough. It will take 2-3 hours for the bread loaf to thaw to room temperature or 1-2 hours for the rolls to thaw to room temperature. You will need: 1 Loaf Rhodes Bread Dough or 12 Rhodes Dinner Rolls, thawed to room temperature6 oz spaghetti, cooked 1 cup thick spaghetti sauce 8 oz mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/2 –inch cubes 1 egg white Parmesan cheese Parsley flakes Spray counter lightly with non-stick cooking spray (or use parchment paper). Roll loaf or combined dinner rolls into a 12x16-inch rectangle. Cook spaghetti according to package instructions. Remove wrap from dough. Make cuts 1 ½-inches apart on long sides of dough to within ½-inch of filling. Begin braid by folding top and bottom strips toward filling. This was fantastic!
