Chorizo con Huevos - Serves 2-4 people: 1 non-stick frying pan 6-ounces of Chorizo (1/2 of a 12-ounce roll of Chorizo...either de res-beef- or de puerco-pork ; it doesn't really matter. I use the 'Cacique' brand...) Flour tortillas - (At least 10) 4 eggs, scrambled Cook the Chorizo in a frying pan first. Let it melt in the pan*, then add the eggs (after they have been scrambled). Just use a fork and pretend like you are making scrambled eggs. The mixture should be totally solid and in small pieces when finished.** You serve it with warm flour tortillas.*** * : Each Stove/Oven is built differently. The best hint, that I can give you, is think of ice melting...by changing into water (slowly). When you are watching the chorizo in the frying pan, there is a chance that chorizo will burn. You have to stand in front of the stove while the chorizo is melting. Of course, if you have had the chorizo burn before, you will know when it is burning. ** : 'Chorizo con Huevos' actually looks like scrambled eggs. *** : You eat this mexican specialty like you would fajitas...2-3 tablespoons of chorizo and egg mixture is placed in a warm tortilla and eaten this way...Or just make a burrita out of the mixture. No other cooking required.

CARIBBEAN MEDLEY
Chicken and Waffles - I cooked chicken and waffles for dinner amidst a severe thunderstorm. The sky was an ominous shade of gray, dark as night, and rain poured down in sheets. Thunder rumbled overhead, shaking me in my shoes and sending the cats running harem-scarem around the house frantic with fright. Amidst all the craziness I found peace in preparing this. My kitchen felt like a safe and cozy cocoon. A shelter from the storm. And the comfort was in eating it. That's what chicken and waffles is all about - plain and simple home-cooked comfort. I added big bits of cooked bacon to my savory waffle along with a healthy dose of fresh, fragrant orange peel. And then I did something crazy - I ventured outside to grill up my chicken during a short lull in the rain. When I'm determined nothing is going stop me least of all a wild thunder storm! My first intention was to bake the chicken with a coconut-panko crust that would tie into the coconut gravy I was making. It was too hot and humid, I couldn't bear to turn on the oven. I've left the chicken out of my recipe - I'll leave that up to you. Grill it, bake it with a crispy coating like coconut flakes and panko, fry it, or use leftovers like rotisserie or roasted chicken. One of the best parts is the coconut gravy. Coconut milk leftover from my peanut butter sauce was crying to be used. Rich, creamy and so flavorful, this was the perfect home for it. I don't know if I loved the gravy more or the waffles with their bits of salty bacon and essence of orange that permeated through every last absolutely delicious bite! This waffle recipe stands alone as a perfect treat for breakfast. Just add a tablespoon of sugar to the batter and leave out the sage. Bacon Waffles(Basic recipe adapted from Betty Crocker)*Makes 6 Belgian Waffles--------2 large Eggs, 2 cups all-purpose Flour, 1 and 3/4 cup Milk, 1/2 cup Vegetable oil or melted Butter, 4 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon Sage, dried1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons grated Orange Peel from 1 fresh Navel Orange, 8 slices Bacon, cooked crispy and crumbled into bite-size pieces---------In a large bowl beat eggs with a wire whisk until fluffy. Whisk in the remaining ingredients just until smooth. Stir in the bacon.Heat waffle iron. Spray with nonstick baking spray.Cook the waffles according to your individual waffle iron's directions. -----Chicken Gravy (by Reeni) - 2 tablespoons Butter2 tablespoons Flour,1 cup Coconut Milk or Whole Milk, 1 cup Chicken Broth, Sea Salt and Fresh Pepper---------In a medium saucepan melt the butter, whisk in the flour and cook over medium-low heat for three minutes. Slowly whisk in the coconut milk and broth. Add a 1/2 teaspoon of salt and a few cracks of pepper. Bring to a slow simmer, continue simmering and whisking until it thickens. Taste and re-season if needed before serving.

Slutty Cheesecake Bars Are Three Over-the-Top Layers of Decadence Most Popular By Lindsay Funston Sep 8, 2016 5.3k • Often times, I hate the word "slut." Cringe when I hear it. Until it's used for dessert. Slutty desserts—coined by a British blogger when she didn't want just any brownie, she wanted a dirty one—are typically layers of brownie, cookie dough, and Oreos. Being a cheesecake fan, I ditched the brownie layer for cheesecake and (being a basic biotch) added some warm caramel. • http://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/recipes/a49102/slutty-cheesecake-bars-recipe/ [http://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/recipes/a49102/slutty-cheesecake-bars-recipe/_green] Jonathan Boulton I know, it's kind of absurd. Who needs a cheesecake bar to have all those extra layers? YOU. The answer is all of you. They're so good. And take, oh, 10 minutes to make. You pat down a log of cookie dough (don't forget to first line the pan with parchment or aluminum foil like I did in the video!), then top with a layer of Oreos and an easy cheesecake mixture (cream cheese, sugar, eggs, vanilla). • Jonathan Boulton Drizzle with caramel or chocolate sauce and watch how fast these get around at your next party. GET THE RECIPE HERE. Slutty Cheesecake Bars By Lindsay Funston These will definitely get around. Total Time: 0:45 Prep: 0:10 Level: Easy Serves: 8 Ingredients • 1 log refrigerated cookie dough (such as Pillsbury) • 20 Oreos, plus more crushed for topping • 2 8-oz bars cream cheese, softened • 1/2 c. sugar • 2 large eggs • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract • pinch of salt • Warm caramel, for drizzling Directions 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line an 8-x-8" baking dish with parchment paper or aluminum foil leaving a 2" overhang. Press cookie dough into bottom of baking dish. 2. Top with a layer of Oreos (break them up to form a single layer). Set aside. 3. Make cheesecake layer: In a medium bowl using a handheld mixer or stand mixer using the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. 4. Pour over Oreo layer and smooth top. 5. Top with more crushed Oreos and bake until the center is only slightly jiggly, 30 to 35 minutes. 6. Refrigerate until completely chilled, about 3 hours. 7. Remove cheesecake bars from baking dish and slice. 8. Drizzle with warm caramel and serve.

Tiramisu Cups Rather than dirty your pastry bag, snip a small hole in the corner of a plastic food storage bag and fit with a tip before spooning in the filling. If you don't have a tip, don't worry - you can still pipe the cocoa mixture from the hole.

Mashed Sweet Potatoes from WACH Lab Thanksgiving 2016 Needed: Huge Pot/Stock Pot Electric Mixer Hand-held masher One dull knife Large square container for mashing 11 medium to large sweet potatoes 6-8oz tub Land O’Lakes Olive Oil and Sea Salt butter, softened 1-3 Tablespoons of 100% pure Honey…to your taste Cinnamon, light sprinkle 6oz of Daisy Sour Cream 1. Wash with liquid soap and immediately rinse sweet potatoes…if you don’t rinse fast your sweet potato mixture may have a soapy taste to them. 2. Boil them in a huge pot/stock pot for 30-45 minutes. Check potatoes for being done by sticking a dull knife (not serrated knife) in the fattest part of each sweet potato, while it is in the boiling water of the huge pot. If the knife comes out easy while the sweet potatoes are boiling in the pot, take that specific one out of the pot and check the others and so on. I boiled all these potatoes 30-35 minutes then, checked them. While there was sweet potatoes in the pot, checked them with a knife every two minutes as the sweet potatoes cooked more and more. I also found out that you could over-cook them, so try not boiling them over 45 minutes or you will have a chiffon/meringue texture to your sweet potato, mashed potatoes. You can cook them by microwave…just to get them cooked faster and you may get rid of the little hairs that can ruin a great sweet potato mixture. If you think you have those hairs you should cut them out of the micro-waved sweet potatoes. 3. When they are all done boiling, let them sit on the counter top to cool off or in the pot add ice and water to fill the pot up to sit until the ice and water becomes just really cold water… Strain the sweet potatoes and peel them… 4. Line the bottom of the large container with on layer of boiled sweet potatoes after you peel off the skin and cut off a layer of sweet potato hair with the dull knife you are wielding. Time to mash them one at a time in the Large square container with your hand-held masher. Then use the electric mixer to get out any lumps leftover from the mashing. You’ll know when the lumps are out… 5. Add the softened Land O’Lakes butter and Honey to the mashed Sweet Potatoes. Stir well. Sprinkle Cinnamon lightly on them…mix well. 6. When you get to where you are going to serve these Mashed Sweet Potatoes, make sure the mixture is level, then add the sour cream evenly spaced and mix well. Reheat and serve. Enjoy! BASIC MASHED POTATOES - A simple recipe... INGREDIENTS: •2 pounds of potatoes •1 teaspoon of salt •1 cup of half and half (half milk & half cream) •6 tablespoons of butter •Salt and pepper, to taste--- PREP WORK - Peel and quarter the potatoes.---HOW TO MAKE AT HOME: 1. Add the potatoes to a large pot with enough cold water to cover them by an inch or so. Add salt and bring the water to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife. (About 15 minutes) 3. Drain the potatoes return them to the pot and cook the drained potatoes over low heat for a couple of minutes to evaporate some of the water still in the potato.4. Mash by your method of choice. (I prefer a potato ricer) 5. Blend in butter, half & half, and any other ingredients you prefer. 6. Season with salt and pepper.
HEAVEN
Humingbird Cake - Serves 18-20: Cake: 3 cups all-purpose flour. 2 cups granulated sugar. 1 teaspoon baking soda. 1 teaspoon cinnamon. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 3 eggs, beaten. 3/4 cup vegetable oil. 1 3/4 cups mashed bananas. One 8-ounce can crushed pineapple, with juice. 1 cup chopped pecans. 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Frosting: One 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature. 1/2 cup (1stick) butter, at room temperature (Please do not use an alternate source. Cake will not taste its best.) 1 pound confectioner's sugar. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1/2 cup chopped pecans. Preheat oven to 350*. Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans. For the cake, in mixing bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Add the eggs and oil and stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Do NOT beat. Stir in the banana, the pineapple and its juice, the pecans, and the vanilla. Divide the batter among the prepared pans and bake for 23 to 28 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool the cake layers in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a rack to cool completely. While the cake cools, make the frosting: In a bowl, blend together the cream cheese and butter. Gradually add the confectioner's sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla. Stir in the pecans, or reserve them to sprinkle over the frosted cake. Warning: Each Stove/Oven is built differently. There is a chance that this wonderful cake will not bake the same time amount in yours. I made this recipe into a bundt cake instead of having three layers like the recipe calls for. All the ingredients are the same. The bake time was increased to 55 minutes at 350*F. Of course, the amount of servings go down to maybe 5-12 servings...it just depends on how thick pieces are cut... Plus, I stored my bundt version in the refrigerator because I thought it might spoil sitting out since there is cream cheese, eggs and butter in it. ;O) FLOUR TORTILLAS - 2 cups flour. 2 teaspoons baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 2 tablespoons solid shortening. 1/2 cup, plus 2 tablespoons water. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt together. Add the shortening using your hands. Add the water, mix with hands until thoroughly mixed. Knead for about 3-5 minutes. Cover and let set for 7 minutes. Heat an ungreased cast iron skillet or griddle over medium heat. Break off a piece of dough about the size of an egg, be sure to keep the rest of the dough covered. Roll dough into a ball. Press dough on very lightly floured board. Roll out into a 7" diameter circle. Place on heated skillet. Heat for about 20 seconds, turn heat second side for 20 seconds or until browned. Place in covered dish. Continue until all dough is used. Fill as desired. *NOTE: These are great served warm spread with melted butter. You can also sprinkle some cinnamon sugar on top for a sweet treat.
