Baked cheese balls OK, so we did the experiment with the egg roll wrappers and string cheese to make baked cheese sticks and they turned out alright...but nothing to write home about. These, my friends, were not the same outcome. Yes, I used the leftover string cheese from the above recipe. Yes, I used the leftover mix of breading from my baked zucchini chips that I kept in an airtight container in the cupboard until I figured out what to do with it. And, yes, marrying those two ingredients together made the best homemade cheeseball I've made to date. Booyah! Cut your sticks into balls, dip in skim milk, and toss in the breading.... I actually don't know how long I baked them because I watched them the whole time thinking they were going to cheesily explode in the oven because how could the cheese not just melt instead of staying in between the teeniest layer of breading that I could barely see after I put them on the greased baking sheet? Don't mind the shadows in the pictures, they're irrelevant.
The Food Gospel According to Ruth: Caprese Dip Well I am pretty sure this one speaks for itself! I recently saw this on Pinterest and knew it was something I needed to have pronto! Caprese ANYTHING has long been a favorite of mine. Here is what you do...are you paying attention? Get one large log of fresh mozzarella, cut it into cubes. Cook in the oven at 350 degrees until the cheese is completely melted and bubbly. Serve with french bread. Well my friends, you have just found heaven in a casserole dish!
Cheesy Garlic Sticks All righty. Cheesy Garlic Sticks. I make them all the time. I don't make my own pizza dough. When you get your dough, it may need to be 'proofed', which just means it may need to rise. Next up for me to decide on was the type of cheese. After that, I grabbed a spoon and my jar of minced garlic from the fridge (I know, I know, but I love that stuff), I drizzled just a little bit of the garlic infused oil on the pizza, as well as some of the minced garlic itself. I've also added dried garlic powder to this, in addition to the garlic oil / minced garlic, to make it extra potent. All in all, I thought it tasted fantastic. Cheesy Garlic Sticks Makes 1 pizza Ingredients 1 premade pizza dough from a pizzeriaolive oil for brushing dough1 ball of mozzarella (not the kind in water, the kind that is vacuum sealed), you will use about half of a ball, depending on the size of it1 tablespoon minced garlic, with flavored oilItalian spices DirectionsPrepare the crust: Transfer to a baking pizza pan.
Coconut-Lemon Meltaways Whew! It's good to be back and even better to be toting a recipe that I'm super excited and proud of!

Mango Crisp with Macadamia Nut Crust Crisps are among my favorite desserts and although I have been enjoying apple and pear crisps I have been looking forward to spring and summer crisps. Not too long ago I came across the concept of a mango crisp which sounded really good. I had never even thought about using mangos in a crisp and I just had to try it. Now that the mangos are in season I got the chance to make one. I had also recently come across the concept of adding nuts to the crust of a crisp and I thought that adding some macadamia nuts to the mango crisp would be a good ideal. Continuing with the tropical theme I also thought that some coconut would do well in the crust. Ingredients:1/4 cup sugar1 tablespoon cornstarch1/4 teaspoon cardamom (ground)5 cups mango (diced)1 tablespoon lemon (juice)1/2 cup flour1/4 cup rolled oats1/4 cup coconut (unsweetend)1/4 cup macadamia nuts (toasted and chopped)1/2 cup brown sugar1/3 cup butter (melted) Directions:1.

Three Cheese Baked Ziti You should know that I love Oprah. Love Oprah. Love Oprah. I know that I’m not alone. I assure it’s not. I’ve been watching for nearly a lifetime, after all. I have often disagreed with her, found her to be spinning a story in the wrong direction, and thought a show should have addressed more angles of a subject, but then I remember that she’s just one person doing the best she can. And the fact is, she’s someone who has shared her feelings, her assessments of trends, news, and changing times, and much of her life, openly with millions. I’m grasping for the point I began the post with, but as is so often the case with my Oprah love rants, I’ve lost it. Ah, yes. In between spoonfuls of cold chocolate cream, I told Daniel, “You know these are really points to consider…” Spoonful of dairy. “I mean, I don’t think it would be all that strange or difficult to cut out animal foods.” Gulp of chamomile tea with a splash of cow’s milk. “Don’t you think? I just about swallowed the spoon. Here we go.
