soy sauce peeled and de-veined • 1 tbsp minced garlic • 2 tsp olive oil Whisk the honey, soy sauce, garlic and ginger (if using) together in a medium bowl Place shrimp in a large zipped-top bag or Tupperware Pour ½ of the marinade mixture on top, give it all a shake or stir, then allow shrimp to marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes or for up to 8-12 hours Cover and refrigerate the rest of the marinade for later step (Time- saving tip: While the shrimp is marinating, steam broccoli and microwave some quick brown rice) Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat Place shrimp in the skillet (Discard used marinade ) Cook shrimp on one side until pink – about 45 seconds – then flip shrimp over Pour in remaining marinade and cook it all until shrimp is cooked through Serve shrimp with cooked marinade sauce and a garnish of green onion The sauce is excellent on brown rice and steamed veggies on the side Apple Crisp Dina Davis • 5-6 cups apples (peeled and sliced) • 1 cup flour • 1 egg, unbeaten • ½ cup-1 cup sugar to taste • Cinnamon to taste • ¾ cup melted butter Place apples in greased baking dish Mix dry ingredients in a separate bowl, add egg and mix with fork until crumbly Sprinkle over apples, pour melted butter over top, and sprinkle cinnamon Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes 3 Aunt Norma’s Carrot Cake Brenda Burk • 1 ½ cup oil • 1 tsp salt • 2 cup sugar • 1 tsp baking soda • 4 tbsp crushed pineapple • 1 tsp cinnamon • 4 eggs • 3 cups shredded carrots • 2 cups flour • 1 cup crushed walnuts (optional) • 1 tsp baking powder Frosting • 1 pound powdered sugar • 1 stick butter • 8 oz Philadelphia Cream Cheese • 1 cup crushed walnuts (optional) Mix oil, sugar, pineapple, and eggs together sift together all dry ingredients Mix everything together Add shredded carrots and walnuts Bake at 350° for 30-60 minutes or until top is brown and toothpick comes out clean When cake is done cover top with foil and wrap with large towel and put in fridge over night (this helps cake be very moist) add frosting 4 Avgolemono Soup (aka Egg Lemon) ♥ Amanda Hinkle • 2 large cans of chicken broth (not • 1 ¾ cup orzo low sodium) • 1 ladle of lemon juice • 4 large eggs Cook orzo in large pot of chicken broth until soft While cooking, blend eggs in blender Remove pot from heat Turn blender on the lowest speed and SLOWLY add hot broth from pot to the blender using a measuring cup (this is to prevent the egg from curdling) Once the blender is full, SLOWLY pour contents of blender back in the pot while stirring constantly(again, this is to prevent eggs from curdling) Add a ladle full of lemon juice and serve! You can add small pieces of chicken or more lemon to taste if desired Note: If you pour too fast, don’t stir and/or keep the pot on a hot burner, the eggs might still curdle The soup should be smooth and creamy If it curdles, it still tastes good, the appearance just won’t be as pleasing Don’t be discouraged if it doesn’t turn out perfect the first time Once you have it mastered, you will love it! 5 Ba’Nana Bread Allison Bower Adams • 1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour • 3 or 4 bananas, very ripe, mashed • 1 tsp baking soda • 2 tbsp crème fraîche • 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon • 1 tsp vanilla • ½ tsp salt • ⅔ cup walnuts (toasted and • 1 cup + 2 tbsp granulated white sugar chopped) or semi-sweet chocolate • 2 eggs chips • ½ cup vegetable oil • 2 tsp vanilla instant pudding mix Set oven to 350° Butter the bottom and sides of a 9”x 5” loaf pan In a small mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; set aside In a large mixing bowl, beat the sugar and eggs with a whisk until light and fluffy; about 10 minutes Drizzle in vegetable oil Add mashed bananas, creme fraiche, vanilla pudding mix and vanilla extract Whisk together until completely combined and smooth Fold in dry ingredients and nuts (or chocolate) until just barely combined no more flour is visible Pour into loaf pan and bake for about 45-60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean Bailey’s Chocolate Chip Dip Ruth Morgan • 1 8-oz package cream cheese, • ¼ cup Baileys Irish Cream softened to room temperature • ½ cup powdered sugar • ½ cup mini chocolate chips In a bowl, combine your cream cheese, powdered sugar, and Baileys and mix until smooth Baked Chicken ♥ Gina Pipkin • Bone in, skin on chicken breasts • Pepper • Paprika • Salt • Bisquick baking mix Mix baking mix and spices Dip chicken, both sides Place chicken in greased 9x13 pan Bake for 25 minutes at 425° Flip and bake another 20-30 minutes until golden brown Beef or Chicken and Noodles Robin Ward • Roast beef • Brand chicken soup stock • Orrington Farm Brand beef soup stock OR Chicken Orrington Farm • Reams frozen egg noodles Cook roast with beef soup stock in crock pot overnight Refrigerate broth until grease can be removed Heat broth to boiling, while adding water and soup stock according to package directions on the stock Cook noodles according to package 6 Best Banana Bread Gretchen Pike • 1 cup sugar • ¼ tsp salt • 1 cup mashed bananas • 1 ½ cup flour • 2 eggs • Nuts and/or raisins • 1 tsp vanilla • ½ cup shortening or margarine • ½ cup sour cream • 1 ½ tsp baking soda Cream butter and sugar Add beaten eggs and soda dissolved in sour cream Beat Add bananas, flour, salt and vanilla Mix Bake at 350° for one hour in greased pan or until toothpick comes out clean This makes three mini loaves Bake 45 minutes Best Potato Soup EVER Melissa French • 10-15 potatoes diced (I like bigger • Celery sliced (as much as you like) chunks, so they can cook down, • 14 oz can condensed milk and less cutting) • ½ cup flour • Medium onion diced • Shredded Cheese (4-8oz depending • 2-3+ Carrots sliced on how cheesy you like it) Peel and cut potatoes Dice onion Bring to a boil in large pan While these items are boiling, I slice up the other vegetables Allow the potatoes to cook to the texture you prefer I use larger chunks of potatoes so I can boil them longer if I need to When the potatoes are just about to where I like them, I add in the other vegetables I allow all vegetables to return to a boil and cook to texture In a side bowl combine the condensed milk and whisk in the flour (whisking the flour on the side allows you to by-pass chunks of flour, I know this from experience) Once the veggies are cooked to your liking, turn the heat down, remove and discard about 2 cups of the cooking water Slowly stir in condensed milk/flour mixture Stir and allow to warm Add cheese to your liking, stir, and ready to serve! (Of course it is better the second day, but be careful when reheating, the flour and cheese can burn easily ) Best Stuffed Peppers ♥ Kate Journey • ½ pound sausage • 1 can Rotel • ½ pound ground beef or turkey • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese • 6 large peppers (any color) • ½ tsp sea salt • 1 clove garlic
