Chicken and Dressing Casserole

by Rebecca March 26, 2020
written by Rebecca

I received this recipe from a friend. My entire family enjoys it and not to mention how easy it’s to create! Side Note: Should you want to, you may simply boil up to 4 or 5 boneless chicken breasts rather than using a whole chicken.

I had an identical recipe years ago but it never really was as delicious as I expected it to be. This one definitely did! Enjoyed every taste!  I made it the night prior to leaving it within the refrigerator overnight and put it in the oven once I came home from work. It was amazing!

How to make Gravy:

Melt butter in a saucepan over moderate heat. Whisk in flour and cook for two minutes.

Reduce heat to low and cook and stir until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 4-6 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, and season with salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper.

Serve the casserole with sauce on the top and a big side of sausage.

CABBAGE FAT-BURNING SOUP

by Rebecca March 26, 2020
written by Rebecca

This lockdown has taught me a lot of things. The most important thing is to take care of myself for the sake of my kids. See, I gained a lot of weight in almost 3 months. Last week I felt something strange. I got a little dizzy and I had this strange feeling on my chest while I was doing laundry. I knew what it was because I had this episode about 2 years ago. I knew at that moment that I had to reduce weight and eat healthy foods so I went online and searched a lot of recipes that would not only make me healthy but would also make me want to eat more of it. Something that I would have cravings for. I stumbled upon this specific recipe. It is delicious that even my kids, that are not fans of vegetables, by the way, loved it! I added the tomato sauce to make it more appealing in the eyes. It adds both color and flavor to the dish. When it comes to the broth, Chicken and pork work as well but I prefer beef because it has a little amount of fat content.

Health is wealth! Stay healthy and you all have a great day!

CHICKEN SPAGHETTI CASSEROLE

CHICKEN SPAGHETTI CASSEROLE: THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST DISH TO MAKE FOR THE MEN IN YOUR FAMILY: TRUST ME! MY HUSBAND AND BROTHER LOVED IT!

We loved this so much. I made it with 1 pound of spaghetti and increased the soup to two cans, instead of the recommended amount. I deboned the rotisserie chicken for approximately four cups and doubled the veggies. I doubled the cheese by 1/2 cup, and it was VERY good and creamy!

This is a great recipe. I used canned chicken. But, I didn’t have cheddar cheese in the house, I just used a pizza blend shredded cheese. We loved this so much and a great recipe if you have left-over chicken (also, instead of your typical pimentos, I instead used sliced green olives with pimentos).

REAL OLD-FASHIONED PORK CHOP CASSEROLE

by Rebecca March 26, 2020
written by Rebecca

With this dish, you can serve with rice. You can also try baking it with different vegetables, or potatoes. The whole household gave this recipe up a loaf. I cooked mine in the crockpot so the pork chops came out nice and tender. Next time I’d use half of the water called for so that the gravy is a bit thicker but most of us thought the taste was great! Thanks, to Sasha. I recommend cooking this at any cookout, as it feeds lots of men and women! My husband loved it and ate almost the entire dish! Your kids will love them also!

CRAB AND SHRIMP SEAFOOD BISQUE

by Rebecca March 26, 2020
written by Rebecca

If you’re a purist, you’ll know that a legitimate bisque is a seafood soup, but often uses to describe any creamy soup. The soup is French, but it is not clear where the word “bisque” originates. It derives from Biscay, as in The Bay of Biscay, a gulf that lies off Europe’s west coast, bordering Western France and Northern Spain.

This seafood bisque is from crab and shrimp, but you can choose to replace another seafood or add a third such as lobster, scallops, or solid, flaked fish. The soup is super easy to cook and prepare and is ready in 15 minutes. Serve with crusty bread or freshly baked biscuits. If it is the soup for lunch or the main course, add a salad.

Ingredients:

3 tbsp butter

2 tbsp chopped green onion

2 tbsp chopped celery

1 tbsp tomato paste

1 cup heavy whipping cream

8 oz crab meat

(4 to 8 oz) small cooked shrimp or other seafood

Note:

Feel free to add scallops or lobster in the small cooked bay instead of shrimps. Replace with finely chopped shallots the green onions. Garnish the soup with thinly sliced tops of green onions, cilantro, or parsley if desired. Or add a heap of sour cream and swirl it over.

Barbecue Ribs Recipe

Barbecue Ribs Recipe

Ingredients:

4 lbs of pork baby back ribs

salt and pepper to taste

2 cups ketchup

1 cup of chili sauce

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

4 tbsp vinegar

2 tsp dried oregano

2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

(1) dash hot sauce

Directions:

Preheat oven at about 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Season salt and pepper to the ribs. Place it in a shallow baking pan, let it brown for 15 minutes, in the oven. Turn over, then brown for 15 more minutes; drain fat.

Add and mix the ketchup, chili sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, oregano, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Put the ribs into the slow cooker. Pour over ribs of sauce and turn to coat.

Cover and cook at low heat for 6 to 8 hours or until the ribs are soft.

Tips:

The process is similar for all methods, allowing the ribs to cook low and slow so that the meat becomes buttery and tender, and finishing with sauce and grill (or broil).

Prepare the ribs by removing them from behind the silver membrane. You can just slip and pull one knife under it.

Inspect bone pieces/shards for the rib rack as they can still be present from the butcher cutting the ribs.

Cut the racks into handy pieces that fit in your slow cooker. Depending on the size, I do usually use half or thirds.

CROCKPOT PEPPER STEAK RECIPE

by Rebecca March 24, 2020
written by Rebecca

This recipe for a slow cooker pepper steak is simple to make and simply packed with flavor. Our entire family enjoys this Crockpot pepper steak recipe, and we have put it on the favorite rotation list for the season. I think he’ll love your family too! Serve with a salad over a rice bed, and dinner is over. We are making our rice in the Instant pot, so using my two favorite appliances, this dinner was crazy fast. The advantage of having this in the crockpot is that you cook this meat low and slow, it comes out much tenderer than just cooking it on the stovetop. Serve it as fajitas on top of rice or in flour tortillas. Making it is simple and always a favorite of the family.

Crockpot Pepper Steak Recipe

Ingredients:

1.5 lbs of beef strips

(1) green bell pepper sliced thick

(1) red bell pepper sliced thick

(1/2) onion sliced thick

1 1/2 cups of beef stock

3 tbsp of soy sauce

1/4 tsp ground ginger

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp black pepper

2 tsp brown sugar

Directions:

In a slow cooker put the beef, bell peppers, and onions.

Remove the beef and peppers with seasonings, brown sugar, and soy sauce.

Pour the stock of beef into a crockpot.

Stir to merge.

Cover and simmer for 5 hours or until the steak is cooked.
Serve with white rice.

Tip:

It will take an hour before dinner to prepare a thicker sauce. Add and mix a tbsp of cornstarch with 1/4 cup of cold water in a small bowl, stir well into the crockpot. Turn the crockpot to high and let the sauce thicken for the final cooking time.

When cutting steak, remember to cut for the tenderest cut of meat against the grain. For this, you could also use London broil or flank steak. Not enough time? Just buy fajita meat so that you can already cut the beef.

Mexican Restaurant Style White Cheese (Queso) Dip

by Rebecca March 24, 2020
written by Rebecca

This is an amazing, restaurant-style White Cheese (Queso) Dip. The garlic and onion powder makes it even tastier! I personally used a pound of Velveeta, which was awesome. My family loved it and thought it was better than going to a Mexican restaurant! I put this all over rice and burritos for a yummy meal. I will also be using this in my future family reunion, since my family loves Mexican restaurants and what else wouldn’t surprise them with this delicious Mexican-style cheese? Also, it’s very affordable to make and quite easy!

This recipe is very similar to white cheese served in other Mexican-style restaurants. The heat in the instructions can be adjusted by adding chili or cayenne pepper. If you have kids, you can keep it as is so they don’t burn their mouths! It can also be used for tortilla chips and other dishes you choose!

White Cheese Dip Recipe

White Cheese Dip Recipe

Servings: 8 | Prep 5 mins |  Cook 10 mins | Ready In 15 – 20 mins.

Ingredients:

1 pound white, deli-sliced American cheese

⅔ cup of milk or half-and-half

3-4 tablespoons of canned, chopped green chiles or jalepenos

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon chipotle powder (optional)

Directions:

About 1 – 2 slices are ideal and keep stirring until it’s completely melted and together.

If using a double boiler, heat the milk, chopped chiles and spices, then gradually add in the American cheese, 1-2 slices at a time, stirring until fully melted and absorbed together.
