<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 2/3 cups quick-cooking rolled oats (<span style="color: #c27ba0;"><i>I used Old-Fashioned</i></span>)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">3/4 cup Sticky Bun Sugar (<span style="color: #a64d79;"><i>1/2 cup brown sugar</i></span>)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1/3 cup oat flour, or finely ground rolled oats (<span style="color: #c27ba0;"><i>I used King Arthur Whole Wheat flour</i></span>)<br />1/2 teaspoon salt</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, optional</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 1/2 cups nuts*</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 cup Raspberry Jammy Bits (<span style="color: #c27ba0;"><i>I used 3/4 cup</i></span>)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 teaspoon vanilla extract</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1/4 cup melted butter or vegetable oil ( <span style="color: #c27ba0;"><i>I used coconut oil</i></span>)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1/4 cup honey, maple syrup, or corn syrup(<span style="color: #c27ba0;"> <i>I used corn syrup but, think agave would work fine too</i></span>)</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">*3/4 cup sliced almonds and 3/4 cup unsweetened coconut.<br /> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly grease (<span style="color: #c27ba0;"><i>I used parchment paper instead of greasing the pan to make cutting the bars and lifting them out easier</i><span style="color: black;">)</span></span> a 9" x 13" pan. (<i><span style="color: #c27ba0;">Bars were thin, for thicker bars use a 7"x12" pan.</span></i>)<br /> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Stir together the dry ingredients, including the nuts and Jammy Bits.<br /> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In a separate bowl, whisk together the vanilla, melted butter or oil, honey or syrup, and water.<br /> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Toss the wet ingredients with the dry until the mixture is evenly crumbly.<br /> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Spread in the prepared pan, shaking the pan to evenly cover the bottom, and pressing in firmly </span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">(<i><span style="color: #c27ba0;">I used plastic wrap to help press the bars down</span></i>)</span></span>.<br /> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Bake the bars for 25 to 30 minutes (<i><span style="color: #c27ba0;">It only took me 22 min.</span></i>), until they're <b>just starting to brown</b>, and are bubbly around the edges.<br /> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Remove them from the oven and cool for 10 minutes.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Use a knife to cut the bars while they're still warm. Let cool completely before removing from the pan. </span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">(<span style="color: #c27ba0;"><i>I removed the parchment paper </i><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: #c27ba0;"><i>from the pan in order to cut the bars, and placed the paper and bars back in the pan to finish cooling.</i></span>)</span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The changes she made are in Italic and Purple.<b> </b> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The Taste: Although she used less brown sugar and less jammy bits, I think the sweet taste should be cut down a little more. But all in all these were delicious, and we would definitely <b>REPEAT</b> this using agave or honey in the place of the corn syrup and 1/3 cup brown sugar. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">ENJOY! Come again...</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Hi everybody :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I know it's been a while since my last post. I've been kind of busy around the house lately. But I do have a nice treat to share with you all today. My daughter and I were having some fun tweaking this <a href="http://lacreativitedelafille.blogspot.com/2012/05/brownie-in-cup.html">recipe</a>. This brownie was prepared in a microwave in less than 2 minutes. If you follow my blog, you'll know that I normally shy away from "microwave cooking," but today I'm taking the plunge. Seeing that the recipe didn't required eggs makes it so much easier for me to accept the challenge. (Cooking eggs, meats, or fish in the microwave is still taking me some time getting accustomed to.) </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Want a deliciously moist fudge brownie in less than 2 minutes? Well, let's get it started... </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Hi everybody :)</span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Summer is almost over and Fall is very near, YES :) This recipe is my celebration to the end of the sunny days, until we meet again Summer... Farewell. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Since I had so many views on the </span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><a href="http://incindyskitchen.blogspot.com/2013/08/mini-peach-cobblers-sweet-georgia-pride.html">Mini Peach Cobblers</a> ,</span> I decided to make another mini dessert, Mini Cherry Crisp Pies. These little pies have a flaky buttery bottom crust, a crunchy topping, with a sweet and tart goodness in the middle. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I wanted the taste of a crispy crunchy topping like in the </span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><a href="http://incindyskitchen.blogspot.com/2012/09/cinnamon-apple-crisp-three-days-til-fall.html" target="_blank">Cinnamon Apple Crisp</a></span> but with a buttery flaky crust like in the </span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><a href="http://incindyskitchen.blogspot.com/2012/11/classic-pecan-pie-with-twist-praline.html#" target="_blank">Praline Liqueur Pecan Pie</a>, so I came up with a combination of both.

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>What I Think:</b> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The Taste:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I love the sweet/tart balance of the cherry filling. The dried sour cherries and the cranberries help offset the sweetness of the others cherries just right. The dried blueberries added a nice touch too. Like I mention before the topping and the crust were AMAZING!!! REPEAT AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE! </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">ENJOY! Come again...</span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hi, everyone. I found the recipe for these cookies on the back of a bag of flour; the recipe is also available <a href="http://goldmedalflour.com/recipedetail.aspx?idrecipe=40697-2&idcat=7&cat=Cookies,%20Bars%20and%20Brownies" target="_blank">here</a>. I made the cookie dough one night around midnight and decided to bake the first batch the next morning, because the heat of the kitchen was too much, even at midnight. I refrigerated the dough until morning.</span></span> </span></span><br />

</span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Tip: Cookie dough can be covered and refrigerated for
up to 24 hours before baking. If it becomes too firm, let stand at room
temperature for 30 minutes before using.</span></span><br />

</span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Cookie dough can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 9 months. Thaw just until soft enough to handle.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>What I Did and/or Think:</b></span></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: purple;">I didn't add any chopped nuts. I really wanted to add pecans, but looking through the freezer for them made my hands numb. </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: purple;">Like before (I know my mom hates this), I did not measure the baking soda, salt, or vanilla. I was beginning to feel tired at this point, and did not want to bother with the teaspoons.</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: purple;">I used margarine. I also combined quick-cooking oats with old fashioned (about half quick and half old-fashioned). Finally, I added extra chocolate chips to the dough, since the bag was nearly empty after I added the cup.</span></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: purple;">These cookies were very tasty! I would love to make them again (but with pecans next time). </span></span></span><br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Hi everybody :)</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As you may know August is Peach Month, and since we Georgians pride ourselves on our peaches <i>and</i> are well- known for our peach cobblers, this recipe is so fitting for the occasion. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />
</span></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I so love baking in large batches, but I have such a small family with a member or two MIA (missing in action) more often than not. I'm starting to rethink my baking habit</span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">s.</span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> I spotted this recipe for </span></span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Southern Peach Cobbler</span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> on </span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><a href="http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Southern-Peach-Cobbler-2/Detail.aspx?event8=1&prop24=SR_Title&e11=peach%20cobbler&e8=Quick%20Search&event1" target="_blank">Allrecipes</a>, and made a few changes and adjustments here and there to make mini cobblers. Here's what I did...</span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Filling:</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">6 fresh peaches - peeled, pitted and sliced into wedges (Ga. grown; of course)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">2 1/2 tablespoons white sugar<br />
2 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar<br />
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Pinch ground nutmeg<br />
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">2 teaspoons cornstarch</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 1/2 tablespoons Peach Schnapps (optional)<br />
<b>Crust:</b><br />
1 cup all-purpose flour</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">2 1/2 tablespoons white sugar<br />
1/4 cup brown sugar<br />
1 teaspoon baking powder<br />
1/2 teaspoon salt<br />
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces<br />
1/4 cup boiling water</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Topping:</b><br />
3 tablespoons white sugar<br />
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).<br />
<br />
In a large bowl, combine the filling ingredients. Toss to coat evenly, mashing slightly. Cover, refrigerate, and let sit for about 2 - 3 hours. (This will allow the peaches to release more juice and the flavors to blend.)</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Hi everybody :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I been kind of on a mini blog vacation because of all this HOT weather we been having here... </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I have a surprise for you; my daughter is guest posting today!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Her name is Patrina, and she recently started her own <a href="http://trinamariesrecipes.blogspot.com" target="_blank"><b>blog</b>.</a> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">So </span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">without further ado, Patrina.</span></span><br />
<br />

I'm using a different font (and purple because purple is awesome). I guess my mom's recipe blog inspired me to create a blog of my own. <strike>Since I couldn't decide on a niche, I created a blog of random things (random thoughts, ways I've tried to make money online, giveaways I've entered, deals I've found online, etc.)</strike> </span></span></span></span><div><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br /></span></span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><b>[Updated hyperlink on 12/08/2021 to link to my newly formed expermental cooking blog, <a href="http://trinamariesrecipes.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Trina Marie's Recipes</a>!

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The other day, I was craving something (anything!) sweet. My mom keeps a lot of different baking chips </span></span></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">(chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, etc.)</span></span></span></span> in the freezer or pantry. I found an interesting <a href="http://www.verybestbaking.com/recipes/18478/oatmeal-scotchies/detail.aspx" target="_blank">recipe</a> on the butterscotch chip bag and decided to try it. </span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 1/4 cups flour<br />1 teaspoon baking soda<br />1/2 teaspoon cinnamon<br />1/2 teaspoon salt<br />1 cups (2 sticks) butter, softened<br />3/4 cup packed brown sugar<br />3/4 cup sugar<br />2 egg<br />1 teaspoon vanilla<br />3 cups rolled oats or quick oats<br />1 2/3 cups (11 oz.pkg.)Nestle Toll House Butterscotch Flavored Morsels<br /><br />Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.<br /><br />Combine first set of dry ingredients in a large bowl with a wire whisk.<br /><br />In a mixer with paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugars until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, blend well.<br /><br />Stir in flour/oat mixture with morsels until combined.<br /><br />Drop rounded tablespoon of dough on ungreased cookie sheets. <br /><br />Bake for 7- 8 minutes for chewy cookies; 9 - 10 minutes for crisp cookies. <br /><br />Remove and allow to cool on cookie sheets for 2 minutes. Remove to wire rack and cool completely before storing them in a cookie jar with a loose lid.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /><b>For Bar Cookies</b>: Grease 15 x 10-inch jelly-roll pan. Prepare dough as above.

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>What I Did and/or Think:</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I <i>mostly </i>followed the original recipe, except I did not measure the baking soda, salt, cinnamon, or vanilla. I just poured them in until it looked about right. I also used margarine and did not add the full 2 sticks.</span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">These cookies were amazing!

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I </span></span></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">love both butterscotch (sometimes to the point of secretly eating a couple of chips out of the bag...) and oatmeal, but I've never tried them together. </span></span> </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Hi everybody :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Graduation Day came and went and I'm back HOME! It's great being back. I've been so busy lately organizing after coming back home; trying to jam an apartment into an already packed house is hard work. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">My daughter's ankle is still on the mend, but she's walking a little now, so her walking boot is useful after all. :) She will be taking the Bar Exam soon. I'm going to be the proud mother of a lawyer, y'all!! </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Enough talk about me and my family; now, on to the recipe, Chunky Chocolate Cookies. These cookies are made with a cake mix, so they are so easy to make for busy moms on the go. The nuts can be omitted and the chips exchanged to suit your taste. Let's get it started... </span></span><br />

They are peanut butter cookies with just <i>three</i> ingredients and contains <i>no</i> flour! Super easy right? I know. So, let get it started.</span></span></span></span></span></span> <br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">Preheat oven to 350 degree. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper. </span></span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">Combine all the ingredients in a medium mixing bowl until well b<span style="font-size: large;">lended. </span> </span></span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Drop cookie dough by tablespoonful onto prepared sheet. Use tines of a fork dipped in sugar to make a crisscross pattern on top of each cookies if desired.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Bake until golden brown, about 12 - 15 minut<span style="font-size: large;">es. Yield<span style="font-size: large;">: 2 dozen.</span> </span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Well, I did make a few changes to the three ingredients formula by adding brown sugar for a more chewier texture and and vanilla. The changes I made are in<b> <span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><b>Bold</b></i></span>, <span style="color: #a64d79;"><b><i>Italic</i></b></span>, </b><span style="font-size: large;">and<b> <i><b><span style="color: #a64d79;">Purple</span></b></i>. </b></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">For <b>Easy </b><b>Peanut Butter Blossom</b> version: Shape the dough into 3/4" ball before baking. Bake for about 8 - 10 minutes on ungreased cookie sheet. Press chocolate kiss into the center of each cookies, like in the instructions found <a href="http://incindyskitchen.blogspot.com/2012/08/peanut-butter-blossoms-old-time-favorite.html" target="_blank">here.</a> Yield about 3 dozen.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Today's post is about eggs, I'm making an omelet. Omelets are very simple to make and easy to customize to your taste. The most important thing to have when making omelets is a good <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_4_5?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=omelet+pan+nonstick&sprefi" target="_blank">nonstick pan</a>.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Hi everybody :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Springtime is in the air and nothing says Spring like a down home picnic. When I think of picnic one of the first thing that come to mind is potato salad.</span><span style="font-size: large;"> This is one of those recipes I'm sure everyone like to change or add a special ingredient to make it there very own. I like to keep it simple; not only with the ingredients, but my way of mixing it. Here is my version of the Southern Classic...</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">5 lb bag <span style="font-size: large;">russet</span> potatoes, peeled, diced & cooked </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> 1 cup mayonnaise, use more if needed</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 - 2 tablespoons pickle radish </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 teaspoon celery salt, see below for <span style="font-size: large;">homemade</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1/4 teaspoon freshly grind Black Pepper </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 large <i>or</i> 5 <i>mini</i> sweet bell pepper(s), (<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">2</span>/<span style="font-size: large;">3</span></span> - <span style="font-size: large;">3/4</span> cup) diced </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 tablespoon prepared mustard</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">2 tablespoon finely chopped onion </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">4 hard-boiled eggs</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Paprika </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In a large combined the mayonnaise and the next 6 ingredients, stirring until combined. Add the potatoes. Peel the eggs and dice 3 of them, saving one for garnish. Fold in the diced eggs to potato mixture. Slice the reminding egg, place slices on top of the salad, sprinkle lightly with Paprika. Refrigerate for about 2 hours for flavors to mellow. Serve.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Hi everybody :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Before we get to the recipe, I will not be posting as much for the next few months. My daughter fell and broke her ankle Sunday, so I'm going to have my hands full helping her recover from surgery while she's finishing college. I will try to post at least once or twice a week, so please bare with me.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Now on to the recipe...</span> </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Looking for a great dish that helps make meal planning easier? I may had the solution for you. Not only is it easy to prepare, it's a great recipe to make-ahead too, because it can be frozen and reheated for later. These pork chops are simmered in a sweet sauce to perfection in minutes. The sauce is similar to a sweet sauce I make to do oven BBQ chicken, only without the heat. I love the sweet-n-spicy combination. Let's get it started...</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">1 - 2 tablespoons milk or cream, enough to make it drizzle
Whisk together cream cheese, sour cream and powdered sugar. Add enough milk or cream to make it drizzle. Drizzle over buns. Sprinkle with <span style="font-size: large;">sliced almonds<span style="font-size: large;">, if desired.</span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Hi everybody :)</span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Before we get to this recipe, I like to tell you how I came up with it. This salad was inspired by a Chicken Fajita dish at my local Winn Dixie. It contained grilled chicken strips, sweet bell peppers, red onions, zucchini slices, and this sweet and spicy red sauce that blends it all together. It cost about $5.30 per pound. I would buy this mixture, not to make fajitas but to add to pasta to make a delicious salad because I love the combinations so much. Now, I put my taste buds to work to reproduce that great favor and can make it at home for less :) This is one of my favorites pasta dishes, mildly sweet with a little heat<span style="font-size: large;"> :)</span> Here's what I did... </span></span> <br />

Being too delicate and super-thin the dough would stick to parchment paper the standard solution <span style="font-size: large;">for a</span> <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">tricky</span> dough.</span> But I thought I coul<span style="font-size: large;">d do it my way and use the </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Silpat-Bread-11-6-x-16-5-inches/dp/B005LZP15I/ref=sr_1_" target="_blank">Silpat for Bread</a></span> <span style="font-size: large;">without any problems.

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Since the cheese itself is <span style="font-size: large;">salty</span>, use a light hand when <span style="font-size: large;">s</span>prinkling the coarse over the before baking.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan or Asiago cheese over the top of each sheet of crackers before baking.<br /><br /><u>To Make Ahead:</u><br />In s<span style="font-size: large;">t</span>ep 3. do nor let the dough rise but <span style="font-size: large;">refrigerate</span> it<span style="font-size: large;"> </span>overnight or up to 16 hours; let the dough sit at room temperature for 30 minutes then continue with step 4.</span></span><br />
