Wendy's Spicy Chicken Fillet Sandwich

Wendy's Spicy Chicken Fillet Sandwich
Not only a great sandwich, but also great topping your favorite salad greens with this!

• 1⁄3 cup frank's original red hot pepper sauce
• 2⁄3 cup water
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 1⁄2 teaspoons salt

• 1 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper

2. Combine the pepper sauce and water in a small bowl.
3. Combine the flour, salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, onion powder, paprika and garlic powder in another shallow bowl.
4. Pound each of the chicken pieces with a mallet until about 3/8-inch thick. Trim each breast fillet if necessary to help it fit on the bun.

Momofuku Compost Cookies




1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated (white) sugar
1/3 cup light brown sugar, tightly packed
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup butterscotch chips
1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
2 heaping tablespoons old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup potato chips
1/2 cup mini pretzels

Combine the butter, sugars, corn syrup in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and cream together on medium high for 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add the egg and vanilla, and beat for 7 to 8 minutes (yes that long).

Reduce the speed to low and add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix just until the dough comes together, no longer than 1 minute. Do not walk away from mixer or overmix. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.

Still on low speed, add the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, graham cracker crumbs, oats, and mix until just incorporated, about 30 seconds. Add the potato chips and cereal (or other add-ins) and mix on low speed until just incorporated, taking care not to overmix or break too many of the chips or cereal pieces.

Using a 1/3 cup measure ( or 2 3/4 ounce ice cream scoop- yes this is huge) portion out the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet. I portioned it onto a plastic-lined plate. After portioning the dough, pat the top of the cookie dough domes flat. Wrap the sheet pan (or plate) tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 1 week. Do not bake your cookies from room temperature – they will not bake properly. I waited 36 hours before baking.

Heat the oven to 375F. Arrange the chilled dough a minimum of 4 inches apart (basically you are baking 4 cookies to a sheet for the average home-baker) on parchment or Silpat-lined sheet pans. Bake for 16 minutes (Christina calls for 18 minutes but mine were very crispy on the edges at 16 and I wish I would have pulled them at 14-15 minutes as I prefer underbaked cookies). The cookies will puff, crackle, and spread. After 16 minutes, they should be very faintly browned on the edges yet still bright yellow in the center. Give them an extra minute or so if that’s not the case. Note that because of the high butter content in these cookies, they will be prone to burning around the edges; watch them closely.

Cool the cookies completely on the sheet pans before transferring to an airtight storage container. At room temperature the cookies will keep fresh for 5 days; in the freezer, they will keep for 1 month.

Makes 8 very large cookies

Need home made bread in no time? ('No bake' flat bread)

Hiya, here is what you need:
-flour
-salt
-water
-large non-stick frying pan (e.g. wok)

Prep dough: 5minutes
Leave dough: 20minutes
Cook: 5minutes

Super simple:
Flour + some salt + water = dough.
Roll flat little ball of dough.
Cook it in the wok, without any oil.


Here is the longer version:

No need for quantities, you will know as you go. I just put 1 1/2 cup of flour, add a little salt, and add a little water. I have extra flour and water at hand.

Leave for about 20 minutes.

Come back and heat your wok. No oil, no nothing.

Flour your hand. Flour a wooden chopping board. Take a small ball from the dough. Roll it flat and thin.

Put the disc of dough in the hot wok. It cooks in seconds. Flip it and cook the other side, literally in seconds.

They are ready when there are some dark patches on either side. Set aside to cool and cook the rest the same way. :)

Next time, try adding some flavour: oregano and other herbs, desiccated coconut and raisins (peshwari naan?) ... etc!:mrgreen:

Little Debbie Swiss Roll




1/4 cup dutch processed cocoa powder
1/3 cup cake flour
1/4 t. salt
1 t. baking powder
1/2 t. instant coffee
4 eggs, yolks and whites in separate bowls
1/2 cup sugar

1) Line a half-sheet pan first with cooking spray or vegetable shortening then with parchment paper across the bottom of the pan. The cake sticks very easy so it is important to make sure the sheet is lined properly or you will end up with a torn cake.

2) Pre-heat the oven to 425 degree.

3) Sift together the dry ingredients (cocoa, flour, salt, baking powder, and coffee) and place in a small bowl to the side.

4) In a mixer with the whisk attachment whip the egg whites until they are at soft peaks. This is also sometimes referred to as wet peaks. You will know they are ready when you remove the whisk and the egg whites form a Dairy Queen ice cream cone like curl. If they fall quickly and don’t create the curl keep going… if they stand straight up in the air… I’m sorry… start over :(

5) In a small mixing bowl mix the egg yolks and sugar together until they become pale yellow. Add the dry ingredients to the egg yolk mixture. The batter will be stiff – don’t worry it should be.

6) Mix in half the egg white mixture until completely incorporated and the batter becomes easier to work with. Finally fold in the last half of the egg whites. Don’t over-stir the second half.

7) Pour onto the greased and parchment paper lined pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly so you do not end up with a big cake on one side and a cracker like cake on the other. Because the egg whites were whipped it is important *not* to bang the pan in order to get the batter to settle. Simply use a spatula to spread. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until the cake is sponge-y to the touch.

8) Remove cakeDSC_00471 from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for a few minutes. Tip the cake over, remove the cake, pull off the parchment paper, and roll up into a tea towel to cool. This gives the cake form memory and will keep it from cracking after you have filled it with icing and roll it up. Allow the cake to cool for 20 minutes.

9) After the cake has cooled spread the Little Debbie Creme Filling (recipe below) evenly across the entire cake. Roll the cake up (remove the towel!!) like the pictures above.

10) Place the cake on a wire cooling rack set on top of the half sheet pan. Pour the chocolate ganache glaze over the top of the cake and allow to cool. If you are a big chocolate lover thten after the first layer of glaze has cooled go ahead and pour another on top for a thicker layer of icing.

Slice the cake to serve and pretend you are back in the 5th grade with the best lunch box treat there ever was!

Creme Filling

yields 1 batch
1 stick butter, softened
1/4 cup vegetable shortening
1 small (8oz) jar marshmallow creme
1 t. vanilla
1/4 t. salt
1 cup powdered sugar


1) Whip together the butter, shortening, creme, vanilla, and salt. Slowly add the sugar. If you are in a humid climate you may need to add up to an extra 1/4 cup powdered sugar to get the right texture.

Chocolate Ganache Glaze

1/2 cup heavy cream
4 oz (about 2/3 cup) dark or milk chocolate roughly chopped (or chocolate chips)

1) Heat the cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Quickly remove from heat and pour in the chocolate. Stir with a whisk until all chocolate has melted.

Blackened Chicken
1/4 teaspoon paprika
A pinch of salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme
A pinch ground white pepper
A pinch of onion powder
For the Pizza
1/3 Cup Smoked Gouda
1- 1 1/2 cups Mozzarella
2 Pieces Turkey Bacon (Or regular), cooked and chopped
1 Chicken Breast, cooked and shredded (see recipe above)
1/4 Red onion sliced ridiculously thin
1/4 Bunch of Cilantro, chopped

For the Crust
Add yeast to warm water & allow to sit for 10 min. In a large bowl, combine flours and salt. Add the yeast mixture & stir to form a soft dough. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, adding more flour as needed. Coat a bowl with olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turning it once to coat with oil. Cover and let rise in a warm place. The dough should double in volume (1-1 1/2 hours). Flatten the dough and divide in half. Shape each piece into a ball & let raise for another hour. Add toppings and bake at 425 for 15-20 min.
For the Blackened Chicken
Mix together the paprika, salt, cayenne, cumin, thyme, white pepper, and onion powder. Oil the chicken breast with cooking spray on both sides, then coat the chicken breast evenly with the spice mixture.
Cook in a med-high skillet one minute on each side and finish in a 350 degree oven about 20-30 min.
For the Pizza
After rolling out the crust place a layer of BBQ sauce on the dough. Sprinkle the chicken, onion and bacon and top with cheeses.
Bake at 425 for 10-20 min depending on the size you made your pizza. Just watch until the cheesy is bubbly and beginning to brown. Remove from oven and sprinkle with cilantro.

Tips for salvaging foods that are too spicy

1) For some Asian dishes, as well as certain chilis and stews, adding a scoop of peanut butter will help smother the flames. (Who knows, you might even end up liking the extra flavor and creamy texture.) Also try cashew or almond butter. Tahini is another option.

2) If you have more of the recipe’s ingredients on hand, toss ’em in. Or improvise, and add an additional ingredient that will play well with the recipe while neutralizing the spiciness. Good candidates might include broth, canned beans, potatoes, tomatoes, corn, avocados, coconut milk, and cooked rice.

3)Now here’s some news you can use. Turns out, the fiery chemical in hot chilis, capsaicin, likes to bind itself onto a compound in milk, which neutralizes the burn. Add a generous dollop of sour cream or yogurt to scorching hot chili or stews, or even a touch of milk or cream. For best results, though, go with full-fat dairy. For tomato sauces and stews that don’t want dairy, try shredding some cheese on top.

4)A sprinkle of sugar or honey should do the trick. Or add a touch of sweet ketchup. If it’s a tomato-based sauce, stir in a little more tomato sauce and maybe a titch of sugar.

5. Add a squeeze of lemon or lime. Bonus Benefit: A little lemon juice can also brighten up flavors. If it’s a tomato-based sauce, adding more tomato sauce can help. Also effective, a dash of vinegar.


Peanut Butter and Jelly Bars




1 stick (1/4 lb.) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups strawberry preserves
2/3 cup salted peanuts
2/3 cup peanut butter chips

Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and lightly flour a 9-by-13-inch baking pan.

Using an electric mixer on medium speed, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Lower speed; add egg, vanilla and peanut butter and beat until combined.

In a separate bowl, sift flour, baking powder and salt. On low speed, slowly add flour mixture to peanut butter mixture. Mix until just combined. Set aside 1/2 cup dough.

Using your fingertips, press remaining dough into an even layer in pan. Spread preserves over dough. Crumble reserved 1/2 cup dough over preserves and then sprinkle with peanuts and peanut butter chips.

Bake until golden and bubbly, 45 minutes. Cool on a wire rack and cut into bars.

Starbucks Vanilla Spice Latte




Vanilla Cardamom Syrup

1 cup water
1 cup sugar
1/4 tsp ground cardamom plus a few smashed pods
1/2 tablespoon vanilla

For the Latte

3-4 teaspoons Vanilla Cardamom syrup (or to taste)
1-2 shots espresso
1 cup hot frothed milk
Whipped cream, for topping
Vanilla Sugar, for topping

Make the syrup. In a saucepan bring the water, sugar and cardamom to a boil. I ground the cardamom as best as I could. In the end I also tossed a few sightly crushed pods in to infuse. Let boil for two minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Strain the mixture and pour into a sterilized jar. Keep refrigerated for up to one month.
Make the latte by pouring the espresso and syrup into a mug. Top with the hot frothed milk and foam. Add a swirl of whipped cream if desired and a sprinkle of vanilla sanding sugar. I didn't have sanding sugar so I used some vanilla powdered sugar.

Southern Pulled Pork Sandwiches




Pork
1 (5- to 6-pound) bone-in pork butt roast, trimmed
Kosher salt
2 cups wood chips
1 (13 by 9-inch) disposable aluminum roasting pan
Barbecue Sauce
1 cup ketchup
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon pepper
Other
Hoecakes (see below)
Dill pickle chips
Coleslaw

1. FOR THE PORK: Using sharp knife, cut 1-inch crosshatch pattern about 1/4 inch deep in fat cap of roast, being careful not to cut into meat. Pat roast dry with paper towels. Place roast on large sheet of plastic wrap and rub 2 tablespoons salt over entire roast and into slits. Wrap tightly with plastic and refrigerate for 18 to 24 hours.

2. Just before grilling, soak wood chips in water for 15 minutes, then drain. Using large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil, wrap soaked chips in foil packet and cut several vent holes in top.

3A. FOR A CHARCOAL GRILL: Open bottom vent completely. Light large chimney starter three-quarters filled with charcoal briquettes (4 1/2 quarts). When top coals are partially covered with ash, pour evenly over half of grill. Place wood chip packet on coals. Set cooking grate in place, cover, and open lid vent completely. Heat grill until hot and wood chips are smoking, about 5 minutes.

3B. FOR A GAS GRILL: Remove cooking grate and place wood chip packet directly on primary burner. Set cooking grate in place, turn all burners to high, cover, and heat grill until hot and wood chips are smoking, about 15 minutes. Turn primary burner to medium-high and turn off other burner(s). (Adjust primary burner as needed to maintain grill temperature of 300 degrees.)

4. Unwrap pork and place fat side down in disposable pan. Place disposable pan on cooler side of grill. Cover grill (with lid vent directly over pork for charcoal) and cook until pork registers 120 degrees, about 2 hours. Thirty minutes before pork comes off grill, adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 300 degrees.

5. Transfer disposable pan from grill to rimmed baking sheet. Cover pan tightly with foil and transfer to oven (still on sheet). Cook until fork inserted in pork meets little resistance and meat registers 210 degrees, about 3 hours.

6. FOR THE BARBECUE SAUCE: Meanwhile, combine all ingredients in medium saucepan and bring to boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, whisking constantly, until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Transfer sauce to bowl and let cool completely.

7. Carefully remove foil from disposable pan (steam will escape). Remove blade bone from roast using tongs. Immediately transfer hot pork to bowl of stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment. Strain accumulated juices from pan through fine-mesh strainer set over separate bowl; discard solids.

8. Mix pork on low speed until meat is finely shredded, about 1 1/2 minutes. Whisk pork juices to recombine, if separated, and add 1 1/2 cups juices to shredded pork. Continue to mix pork on low speed until juices are incorporated, about 15 seconds longer. Season with salt to taste, adding more pork juices if desired. Serve pork on hoecakes with barbecue sauce, pickles, and coleslaw.

Hoecakes

Sometimes called Johnny Cakes this is about as Southern as it gets
You can have this with soup, chili and stew or any meal for than matter. You can also make a sandwich.

1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup self-rising cornmeal
2 eggs
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil, (or bacon grease)
butter, (or oil) for frying and more for spreading

Mix well all ingredients, except for the frying oil. Heat the frying oil or butter in a medium or large skillet over medium heat. Drop the batter, by full tablespoons, into the hot skillet. Use about 2 tablespoons of batter per hoecake. Fry each hoecake until brown and crisp; turn each hoecake with a spatula, and then brown the other side. With a slotted spoon, remove each hoecake to drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

All American Cheeseburger with Herbed Shoestring Truffle Fries




September 18th is National Cheeseburger Day

Burger
2 tablespoons corn oil
2 large yellow onions, finely chopped
Thousand Island Sauce (see below)
2 pounds ground beef chuck (preferably 80 percent lean)
4 hamburger buns, split
1/4 cup sliced dill pickles
3/4 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
4-8 thin slices tomato
Fresh ground pepper
Salt, to taste
8 slices American cheese

Thousand Island Dressing
2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup pepperoncini, minced
4 teaspoons ketchup, for color
1/4 cup pickles, minced
1/4 cup capers, minced
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 red onion, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, to taste

Fries
2 large russet potatoes (about 1½ lbs), cleaned
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 chopped fresh rosemary
Kosher salt
Fresh black pepper
Truffle salt

To make Thousand Island sauce:

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Fold together until mixed evenly.

To make French fries:

Cut potatoes into shoestrings, or matchsticks, using a mandolin at the thinnest julienne setting. Rinse cut potatoes through water to remove starch and transfer them to a paper towel-lined baking tray. Pat them as dry as you can. In a heavy bottomed pot, heat 2 to 3 inches of oil to 350 degrees F. Fry the shoestrings in batches until the potatoes are crisp and golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes per batch. As each batch comes out, transfer to a large mixing bowl and toss with some of the chopped herbs, truffle salt and pepper. Transfer to a paper towel lined baking sheet.

To make burger:

In a large skillet over medium heat, add vegetable oil. Add onions, and 3/4 teaspoon salt, cover and cook, stirring occasionally until golden and soft for about 20 minutes. Uncover, increase the heat to medium high and continue to cook, stirring often until caramelized, about 8 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water to skillet, scraping browned bits from bottom of the pan.

Simmer and stir, until the water evaporates, for about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat; lightly brush with vegetable oil. Toast buns on the griddle, split-side down. Lather each toasted bun bottom with about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the Thousand Island sauce. Top with a few pickles, lettuce, two tomato slices (make sure to season with salt and pepper), another dollop of sauce, then set aside.

Keeping the griddle hot, form eight patties from the ground beef and season both sides of the patties with salt and pepper. Put the seasoned patties on the griddle (or a cast iron for the best sear) and cook 3 minutes, then flip and top each with 1 slice of cheese. Continue cooking about 2 more minutes for medium-rare to medium doneness. Top 4 of the patties with caramelized onions, then cover with the remaining patties, cheese-side up. Sandwich the double patties on the bun, serve and enjoy!

2 iceberg lettuce leaves - (to 3)
2 white onion rings - (to 3)
1 tomato slice
Cheese -- (optional)

Cooking Directions:
Using waxed paper, form the 1/4 pound of beef into a 4-inch square patty.
Refrigerate until you're ready to cook.

Pre-heat an electric griddle to 375 to 400 degrees. After its ready, toast the bun faces lightly...about 30 seconds. Don't brown as much as the McDonald's or Burger King buns. Set the bun(s) aside.

Cook the fresh or thawed burger patty about 3 minutes on the pre-heated griddle, salting the top immediately after laying it down. After 3 minutes, turn the patty over, salt again, and cook for 3 more minutes.

While the burger is cooking, dress your toasted top bun in the following order: 1 tablespoon mayonnaise; 1 tablespoon Heinz ketchup; 3 thin slices Heinz genuine dills; 2 to 3 rings of fresh sliced white onion; 1 tomato slice; 2 to 3 iceberg lettuce leaves; 5 to 6 squirts of yellow mustard, evenly spaced.

After the meat is finished cooking, drain the exess fat by tilting to the side and applying pressure with your free hand. Place the patty on top of the dressed bun, and add the toasted bottom bun.

Turn right side up, and eat -- or wrap in a 12- by 12-inch sheet of foil and allow to sit in a warm place 3 to 5 minutes before eating.

This recipe yields 1 burger.

Comments: If you'd like the classic Wendy's double, cook two patties, and dress the bun the same. If adding cheese, use only real American cheese and place it on top of the dressed bun prior to adding the cooked beef. Double cheese? Do the same.

For Wendy's classic bacon cheese burger, cook the burger and dress the bun as directed above. For the bacon, use Oscar-Mayer Ready-Made pre-cooked bacon. Simply microwave 2 slices for about 30 seconds, and add to your burger between the cheese and the beef patty.

NOTE: The salt used is kosher fine salt.

Biggest Regrets in Life (kinghelmet)

Afternoon all, I'd like to know what you're biggest regrets in life are?..

Chili's Asian Chicken Salad




2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil (optional)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 (8 oz.) package dried rice noodles
1 head iceberg lettuce, rinsed, dried, and chopped
4 boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and shredded
3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

Prepare the dressing 30 minutes ahead of time by combining the brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, salad oil, and rice vinegar in a salad dressing carafe.

To prepare the Chinese rice noodles, heat a skillet with a few tablespoons of oil and break off a little bit of the noodles and add them to the skillet and fry them. They will puff up in the skillet, so only add a few at a time. As they begin to puff up, remove and drain them on paper towels. Be sure to cook long enough as the under cooked noodles will be like eating needles. Once cooked, add them to the salad mixture.

In a large bowl combine the iceberg lettuce, cooked and shredded chicken, green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Let chill about 10 minutes, and just before serving add the cooked rice noodles. Serve in salad bowls and offer the dressing in a pourable container so your family can add as much dressing as they want. You can also pour the dressing over the top of the salad, toss, and serve immediately.

Applebee's Veggie Patch Pizzas




6-10 lasagna noodles
8 oz package of frozen all-natural creamed spinach [or make your own!]
8 oz package of button mushrooms, sliced
1 zucchini squash, sliced thin
1-2 roma tomatoes, sliced thin
6 oz milk [or coconut milk, half and half, etc..]
¼ cup grated parmesean cheese
additional parm + mozzarella cheese for topping
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp of italian seasoning blend [basil, oregano, etc..]
red pepper flakes for topping

Cheesy spinach filling:
½ a bag of fresh baby spinach leaves, torn
15 oz whole milk ricotta cheese
¼ - ½ cup grated parmesean cheese
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp of italian seasoning blend [basil, oregano, etc..]
¼ tsp salt + freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
The sauce and noodles can be made at the same time, followed by a super-speedy assembly, some quality time in the oven, and lastly some quality time in your mouth! Sounds good, right? Let's do this!
To cut down on the amount of carb-y goodness in this dish I made lasagna roll-ups instead of typical layered lasagna. To make a roll up, break the super-long lasagna noodles in ½ [Its easiest to do pre-boiling] and apply a liberal dollop of filling inside the middle of each half. Then roll! You can't mess it up if you try. Well, I can mess it up... but I'm special. You can easily layer this dish any way you'd like!
Break noodles in ½ prior to boiling for roll-ups or leave as is for layering.
Boil for 11min or however long the box of noodles specifies.
For the filling, combine ingredients, taste, and adjust seasoning to suit your palette. For me, that means garlic-overload! =)
I simply heat the spinach and saute the mushrooms with a pinch of salt and olive oil and then combine.
To flavor the sauce, and make it a tad bit more saucy, I added 6oz of coconut milk [any dairy or non-dairy option you adore will work here!] along with ½ tsp of garlic powder,1/4 tsp of salt, ¼ tsp of dried minced onion [or onion powder] and a few cranks of freshly ground black pepper. After tasting I sprinkled in a little more of each spice -- feel free to do the same if you'd like! Grate some fresh parmesan cheese over the top [about ¼ cup or more if you're feeling cheesy!] and stir. Viola! Spinach sauce!
Now that you have noodles, sauce, and all your yummy veggies prepped, embrace your inner food artist and start painting your canvas plate.
Layer filling, veggies and noodles in a casserole dish for a colorful and hearty lasagna or skip the layers entirely by rolling the filling into halved lasagna noodles.
Regardless of your noodle selection, top them with veggies, smother them in creamy spinach sauce and throw in a little parm/mozz cheese for good measure and bake at 350F for about 20 minutes.
If you can't fathom turning your oven on in dead of summer toss it all in a pot/skillet and heat to bubbly perfection. This dish is about as versatile as they get!

As always, add more herbs and spices to taste! I always sneak an extra sprinkle or two in and taste as I go.

Checker's/rally's buffalo chicken sandwich

CHECKER'S/RALLY'S BUFFALO CHICKEN SANDWICH
Checkers Drive-Up Restaurants Inc. took the fast food hamburger market by storm in the early 1990s. Quickly building hundreds of unique, vibrantly colored modular restaurants throughout the southeastern United States, Checkers' high volume double drive-through windows and low overhead allowed it to dominate the burger market, shocking the complacent Big Four (McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's and Hardee's).

Makes 4 Sandwiches


4 defrosted chicken breasts
1/2 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 rolls, for sandwiches
olive oil, for frying
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup frank red hot sauce
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2-1 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
red pepper flakes, (depending how much heat you want, to taste)
sliced tomato
iceberg lettuce
ranch salad dressing
You will also need: 1 Gallon size storage bag.

Preheat skillet on stovetop. Add enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Combine flour, paprika, and salt in storage bag. Give a good shake to coat pieces. Add coated chicken breasts to heated skillet and fry until nicely browned on both sides. Remove chicken breasts and place on paper towels to drain off excessive oil.

Combine melted butter, garlic and cayenne pepper in large bowl. To make a mild sauce, use 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Read next step if wanting a hotter sauce. Whisk Frank's Red Hot Sauce with the melted butter combo. If dividing the sauce into mild and hot, pour half into another bowl. For the hotter sauce, use up to another 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Add whatever amount of red pepper flakes you may like.
Place cooked chicken breasts inside sauce and coat both sides. Make sandwiches and enjoy!

Schlotzsky's wisconsin cheese soup

SCHLOTZSKY'S WISCONSIN CHEESE SOUP

1 medium onion
1 medium green pepper
1/2 lb bacon
1/4th cup flour
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon Frank's Red Hot
coarse black pepper
1/2 of a large brick Velveeta cheese

Using scissors, cut semi frozen bacon into small pieces. Brown until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon onto paper towel. Cook onion and green pepper in bacon grease until crispy tender. Add flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly pour in chicken broth, milk and remaining ingredients. Simmer on low. Serve with crusty bread.


Schlotzsky's broccoli cheese soup

SCHLOTZSKY'S BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup all purpose flour
2 cups half and half
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 bay leaves
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 (7 inch) sourdough bread bowls (round loaves)
4 cups broccoli florets (about 1 head)
1 large carrot, diced
2 1/2 cups (about 8 ounces) grated sharp white and yellow cheddar cheese, plus more for garnish

Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook until golden, 3 to 4 minutes, then gradually whisk in the half-and-half until smooth. Add the chicken broth, bay leaves and nutmeg, then season with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, uncovered, until thickened, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the bread bowls: Using a sharp knife, cut a circle into the top of each loaf, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Remove the bread top, then hollow out the middle with a fork or your fingers, leaving a thick bread shell.

Add the broccoli and carrot to the broth mixture and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Discard the bay leaves. Puree the soup in batches in a blender until smooth; you'll still have flecks of carrot and broccoli. Return to the pot. (Or puree the soup in the pot with an immersion blender.) Add the cheese to the soup and whisk over medium heat until melted. Add up to 3/4 cup water if the soup is too thick. Ladle into the bread bowls and garnish with cheese.

Pizza Hut Cheese Bread

Pizza Hut Cheese Bread


1/2 cup warm water
2 1/4 teaspoons or 1 package of instant yeast
1 1/4 cups water, room temperature
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups or 22 ounces bread flour plus more for working the dough
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
non-stick spray
1 tablespoon of semolina flour (optional)
3 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
1 cup of shredded Mozzarella cheese


Place the 1/2 cup of warm water and yeast together in a medium bowl and whisk together briefly. Allow the yeast enough time to bubble up and become active, this should take a few minutes.
