Pastor Ryans Roasted Ricotta Roma Tomatoes
8 whole Roma Tomatoes, Halved. 1 bunch Fresh Italian Parsley. 1 bunch Fresh Basil. 2 cloves To 3 Cloves Garlic, Minced. 1- 1/2 cup Ricotta Cheese. Ritz Crackers Or Bread Crumbs. Kosher Salt To Taste. Olive Oil.
Start out by washing and halving your Roma tomatoes. After halving them, gut out the insides (seeds, etc.) with a spoon. Sprinkle a bit of kosher salt inside each tomato. Discard guts and lay the halved, gutted tomatoes face down on a clean towel. Chop up your herbs and garlic and mix with the Ricotta cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste. Next, fill each tomato half with a nice heap of the Ricotta mixture. In a food processor (or if you dont have a food processor, you can mash in a plastic baggy with a rolling pin) crumble about 15-20 Ritz crackers. Or you can use dried bread crumbs from your favorite kind of bread if you want. Press each ricotta filled tomato half face down into the crackers/crumbs and then place face up on a baking sheet. Drizzle each tomato with a bit of olive oil. Place in 400 degrees oven for 25-30 minutes.

Salt. Pepper. 3 tablespoons flour. 2 eggs, beaten. 3 tablespoons Panko style bread crumbs. Cooking oil for deep frying (such as olive or peanut oil). 2 ounces walnuts, chopped. 1 shallot, minced. 2 tablespoons walnut oil. Salt. Pepper. 3 endives.
Peel the pears, cut them in half and trim to remove the seeds. Reserve one uncooked pear to finish the salad, and roast the remaining two. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the two pears cut side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle pears with olive oil, honey and allspice and top with a small pat of butter. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Set aside. Make the blue cheese fritters. Combine cheese and butter in a mixing bowl until soft and fully incorporated. Add Worcestershire sauce and salt and pepper to taste. Form into small balls and refrigerate for 15 minutes, or until firm. Once firm, roll the balls between your palms to obtain a perfectly round shape. Dredge balls in flour, then beaten egg, then bread crumbs. The uncooked fritters can be reserved in the refrigerator until ready to fry. To fry, heat enough oil to cover the fritters in a fryer to 375 degrees. Add fritters to the pan and fry until golden brown. Make the walnut dressing. Toast walnuts in saute pan for five minutes. Allow to cool, then chop. In a separate bowl, combine honey and ice wine vinegar and mix well. Add minced shallot and walnut oil. Mix with chopped walnuts and salt and pepper to taste. Make the salad.

Set oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Using your hands gently squeeze out as much excess water from the chicken pieces as possible, then dry using a paper towel/s. For glaze; in a bowl whisk the soy sauce with cornstarch, ginger and sesame oil (if using) until smooth. then add in honey, brown sugar, ketchup and chili sauce; whisk/mix until combined (taste the sauce if you prefer a slightly sweeter taste then add in more honey or brown sugar). In a small saucepan heat oil over medium-high heat. Add in onion and saute for about 3 minutes or until slightly softened, then add in the chopped garlic and chili flakes and cook for about 2 minutes. Add in the soy sauce mixture; bring to a simmer mixing constantly, cook until bubbly and thickened (the mixture will be fairly thick) set aside. Heat a small amount oil in a skillet over medium-high heat (you may lightly season the chicken with black pepper before browning if desired but do NOT salt). Add in chicken and brown on both sides; remove to prepared baking dish. Pour the sauce over the chicken then using your hands or tongs turn the chicken pieces to coat in the sauce (make certain that the chicken is facing skin side up). Bake uncovered for about 45 minutes or until completely cooked, basting with the pan glaze about halfway through cooking time. Serve with cooked rice.

Easy Ricotta Eggplant Mozzarella Marinara Bake
8 slices eggplants (cut 1/2-inch thick, center-cut). salt and pepper. 2 cups all-purpose flour (more if needed). 3 eggs, beaten. 2 12 cups fresh breadcrumbs. 1 cup grated parmesan cheese. salt and pepper. olive oil. 1 12-2 cups ricotta cheese. 4 cups grated mozzarella cheese (can use more or less). 4 cups marinara sauce (can use more or less).
Set oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Place flour in a shallow bowl. Place the slightly beaten eggs in another bowl. Mix the fresh bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese together with black pepper and a pinch of salt, then place the breadcrumb mixture in another bowl (you should have three separate bowls). Coat the eggplant slices in flour, then in eggs, then in the bread crumb mixture, patting down with fingers to adhere the crumbs to the eggplants. Up to this point you can cover the slices and refrigerate to finish later. Heat oil in a large skillet. Add in 2 eggplant slices; cook until golden brown (about 5 minutes on each side). Transfer to prepared greased baking sheet in a single layer, but close together (if you can't fit all of the slices in one layer then just overlap them). Repeat with remaining slices. Spread about 2-3 tablespoons ricotta cheese over each eggplant. Top each slice with marinara (you do not have to completely cover with sauce) then sprinkle grated mozzeralla on top. Bake the slices about 15-17 minutes, or until the cheese melts and the marinara is hot.

Honey Pizza Dough (awesome)
2 14 teaspoons active dry yeast (or 1 package). 1 teaspoon honey. 1 cup warm water, 105 to 115 degrees. 2 12 cups all-purpose flour (might need to add 1/4 to 1/2 cup more). 1 teaspoon salt. 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil.
In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and honey in 1/4-cup warm water (100-110 degrees). In a mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine the flour and the salt. (can do by hand with spoon if you don't have a mixer). Add the oil, the yeast mixture, and the remaining 3/4 C water, mix on low speed until dough comes cleanly away from the sides of the bowl and clusters around the dough hook, about 5 minutes. If the dough is still sticky, then simply add a bit more flour until it pulls cleanly away from the hook. Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and knead by hand 2 or 3 minutes. The dough should be smooth and firm. Place in lightly oiled bowl an cover with plastic wrap. Let sit for about 30-45 minutes. (When ready, the dough will stretch as it is lightly pulled). Take dough out of bowl and divide into either 2 or 4 balls, depending on whether you want 2 large pizzas or 4 small. Work each ball by pulling down the sides and tucking under the bottom of the ball. Repeat 4 or 5 times. Cover the dough with a damp towel (I just use plastic wrap, loosely fitted) and let rest 15 to 20 minutes. At this point, the balls can be used or wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 2 days. To make pizzas, I stretch out onto greased pizza pan, top with sauce and toppings, and bake at 450 degrees for 12-16 minutes, until done. (smaller pizzas will take less time, so keep watching it) I usually slide the pizza off the pan for the remaining 2 minutes to crisp it up a bit.

Lay the turkey and ham in the pan next to the bread for about 30 seconds to heat it up. When it's warm, lay the turkey on the cheese. Place the tomato slices on the turkey. Spread the barbecue sauce over the tomato slices. Lay the ham on the tomatoes. Sprinkle the remainder of the cheese over the ham. Top off the sandwich with the other slice of bread, being sure that the buttered side is facing up. By now the first side of bread should be golden brown. Flip the sandwich over and grill the other side for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown as well. Remove the sandwich from the pan and cut in half diagonally. Serve with additional barbecue sauce on the side.

4 egg whites. 1 cup sugar. 2 teaspoons cornflour or 2 teaspoons cake flour. 12 teaspoon vanilla. 1 cup whipped cream. 2 passion fruit. 3 kiwi fruits, sliced. 2 bananas, sliced. 14 -15 strawberries, sliced.
Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a 7 inch round baking pan and dust lightly with a little flour. Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form and gradually beat in the sugar. Beat until the mixture is thick and the sugar is dissolved. Carefully fold in the cornflour and vanilla. Spoon into the baking pan. Reduce the oven heat to 150C (300F) and place in oven. Bake for 1 hour. Let stand for 5 minutes before turning onto a serving plate. Allow to cool completely before decorating with the whipped cream and sliced fruit. If you cannot find the passionfruit, you can use raspberries or blackberries instead. I use both often in this recipe. I have also made it with all purpose flour and it turned out okay. I usually use it to follow up my shrimp fetucinni http://www. recipezaar. com/82472.

For the dressing In a small bowl whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, coriander seeds and snipped herbs, until thoroughly mixed. For the salad squares Peel the watermelon and cucumber. Peel and pit the avocado. Cut the watermelon, cucumber, tomato, avocado and cheese into equal size square pieces. Arrange in 4 x 3 rows on individual serving plates. Garnish with more snipped herbs. Drizzle with dressing. Notes: This is best prepared right before serving, but if you need to prepare ahead I would suggest squeezing some lemon on the avocado so it stays nice and green. I used basil and chives for the fresh herbs, but it would also be delicious with fresh mint or even fresh tarragon.

Quinoa Peanut Butter Cookies
1 cup peanut butter. 1 cup cooked quinoa. 1 cup brown sugar. 1 egg. 12 cup all-purpose flour.
Make sure Quinoa is cooked and cooled before mixing. (If you mix it while it's hot then it will melt the peanut butter, It's ok but then it will be runny when you are dropping into cookie sheet. ). Preheat oven to 350F. Mix all of the ingredients together. Spray a little Pam at bottom of cookie pan. or use non stick cookie sheet. I even used a Pyrex dish. Drop spoonfuls of the cookie mix into cookie pan/sheet. Bake for about 10 to 15 minutes or until light brown. Chill and serve. makes about 12-16 cookies depending on spoon size.

Fresh Baguette
1 (1/4 ounce) packet active dry yeast. 1 teaspoon sugar. 1 12 cups water (105 -115 F). 4 -4 12 cups unbleached all-purpose flour. 2 12 teaspoons salt.
In a large bowl sprinkle yeast and sugar over warm water and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. With a wooden spoon stir in 2 cups flour until combined. Stir in salt and 2 cups of remaining flour until mixture forms a stiff dough. On a lightly floured surface knead dough with lightly floured hands 8 minutes, or until smooth and elastic, kneading in enough of remaining 1/2 cup flour to keep dough from sticking. Transfer dough to a lightly oiled deep bowl, turning to coat with oil, and let rise, bowl covered with plastic wrap, until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours. Preheat oven to 475-500F (My oven does best with 475, but it runs hot). Punch down dough and form into a long slender loaf about 21 inches long and 3 inches wide. You can also form individual mini-loaves. Put loaf diagonally on a lightly greased large or 17 x 14-inch baking sheet and let rise, uncovered, about 30 minutes. (Baguette may be made up to this point 4 hours ahead and chilled.) Make 3 or 4 diagonal slashes on loaf with a razor and lightly brush top with cool water. Bake loaf in middle of oven 30 minutes, or until golden and sounds hollow when tapped, and transfer to a rack to cool. Notes: For a chewy interior and perfect, crusty exterior, place a dutch oven filled with water in oven as it preheats for about an hour. The humid enviroment will ensure the texture comes out right. Baking stones don't hurt either. If you don't want to put water into the oven, you can use a spray mister to keep the enviroment moist as it cooks.

Strawberry Crisp
4 12 cups all-purpose flour. 34 cup granulated sugar. 34 cup brown sugar. 1 teaspoon salt. 1 lb unsalted butter, cubed and chilled. 4 pints fresh strawberries, hulled and halved. 1 cup brown sugar. 14 cup cornstarch. 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. 1 pinch salt.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Prepare the streusel: In an electric mixing bowl on low speed, using the paddle attachment, beat flour, sugars and salt briefly to combine. Add the butter, increase the mixer speed and beat. Watch closely, and as soon as the streusel is light and beginning to come together, stop beating. The dough should consist of pea-size balls. Don't overmix, or you'll have clumps. Refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes. Prepare the fruit: In a large mixing bowl, stir together the berries, brown sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract and salt. Allow to stand for 5 minutes. Spoon the strawberry mixture into a large baking dish or 6 to 10 individual ovenproof dishes. Cover the fruit with large balls of streusel, mounding streusel crumbs around them. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the dish. Rotate the dish from the top to the bottom oven shelf halfway through the baking time. When the top is crisp and the fruit is soft and bubbling, the dessert is ready. Some hints:. Chilling the mixing bowl and the beaters for an hour or so before you prepare the streusel will make a more tender topping. Use any combination of berries that you like. This dessert is best served warm with vanilla ice cream.

Lemon-garlic Chicken with Olives Recipe
1 3 to 4 pound fryer chicken cut up, or chicken pieces. 25 garlic cloves peeled (already peeled cloves available at Trader Joe's!). 3/4 cup chicken broth. 1/3 cup pitted green olives, rinsed. 1 Tbsp chopped lemon zest. 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice. 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil. 1/3 cup finely chopped fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, parsley, oregano, basil, sage, etc.). Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
Preheat oven to 425. Combine the lemon zest and juice, olive oil, herbs (reserve on Tbsp of herbs), and salt and pepper in a small bowl and stir. Arrange chicken pieces in a roasting pan, place the garlic cloves all around the chicken, and pour lemon-herb mixture over them. Roast for about 40 minutes or until nicely browned.

Stir and gently scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen juices. Add the olives and stir, cooking a few more minutes. Garnish with the remaining Tbsp of herbs and take pan to table or transfer to serving platter. Serve immediately.

Heather's Baked Caramel Corn
34 cup corn kernel, popped. 12 cup butter. 14 cup light Karo syrup. 34 cup brown sugar. 14 cup Splenda granular. 12 teaspoon salt. 12 teaspoon vanilla. 12 teaspoon baking soda.
Preheat oven to 250 and coat roaster pan with butter or cooking spray - I use a non-stick roaster, which is just perfect for this recipe. Pop popcorn right into roaster pan. Over medium heat (don't go any higher or it might burn - I set my burner at 4.5 on a 9 scale), combine butter, brown sugar, splenda, karo syrup and salt. Bring to a boil - Boil for 5 minutes without stirring. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and baking soda. Working quickly, dump caramel mixture onto popcorn and stir until well distributed. Bake for 30 minutes stirring once after 15 minutes to even out the caramel making sure that all pieces are coated nicely. If you like, cool popcorn on parchment paper, especially if you aren't using a non-stick pan - I just leave mine in the non-stick roaster, stirring every once in awhile until completely cool. Store in covered tupperware dish - if you have any leftover!

Baked Lemon Chicken with Mushroom Sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil. 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves. 1 lemon. 1/4 cup butter. 3 cups fresh sliced mushrooms. 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup chicken broth, or more as needed. 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Pour olive oil in an 8x8-inch glass baking dish. Place the chicken breasts in the dish, coating each side with oil. Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon over each chicken breast. Slice the rest of the lemon and place a lemon slice on top of each chicken piece. Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; add mushrooms. Cook and stir until mushrooms are brown and liquid is evaporated, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and stir until coated. Add chicken broth, stirring to make a medium-thick sauce. Allow sauce to reduce, adjusting with a little more broth to make a creamy sauce. Add fresh parsley at the last minute. Spoon the sauce over the baked chicken breasts.

Szechuan Style Eggplant (Aubergine)
6 Japanese eggplants, cut into finger sized strips. 1 12 tablespoons soy sauce. 1 tablespoon brown sugar. 14 cup chicken broth. 4 tablespoons peanut oil. 1 tablespoon grated ginger. 1 tablespoon minced garlic. 12-1 teaspoon red pepper flakes. 14 cup water chestnut, rinsed and chopped. 3 -4 scallions, finely chopped. 1 12 tablespoons rice wine vinegar. 1 tablespoon dark sesame oil. 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds.
Cook eggplant in 2-3 tbsp oil in a large deep skillet until tender (add a little more oil or water if necessary- it will cook down with the amount of oil stated but with a nicely hot wok, there may be a little smoke involved, but don't worry, turn on the hood exhaust because it just adds to the flavor). While eggplant is cooking, mix soy sauce, sugar, and broth together in a small bowl till sugar dissolves. Remove eggplant from skillet when cooked and keep warm. Heat garlic, red pepper flakes, and ginger in 1 tbsp oil until aromatic. Stir in the water chestnuts and half of the scallions along with the eggplant and the soy sauce mixture. Stir and cook until the soy sauce is absorbed into the eggplant (this may take several minutes). Add the vinegar, sesame oil, and remaining scallions, stirring to mix. Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds.

Nif's Breakfast to Go (Sandwich) OAMC
12 eggs. 12 English muffins. 12 slices bacon, precooked and cut in half. 12 cheese slices (I sliced low fat old cheddar quite thin).
There are a few different ways that you can cook the eggs. I pierced each yolk, gently stirred each of them and used a plastic egg cooker in the microwave. OR you can lightly scramble each egg in a cup sprayed with cooking spray. OR you can lightly scramble each egg in a silicon muffin tin and bake them. OR you can lightly scramble each egg and cook in a tiny frying pan (I've seen them!). It's up to you how to cook them! You basically want them to end up being cooked through and slightly smaller than the size of the English muffin. While eggs are cooking, open each English muffin and lay them out. When the eggs are done, place each egg on the bottom half of the muffin. Add bacon to each muffin and top with cheese. Wrap each breakfast sandwich in plastic wrap. I placed the sandwiches in a large resealable bag and put them in the freezer. When cooking, placed wrapped sandwich in the microwave. Microwave on high for 30 to 45 seconds. Unwrap, turn over and cook on high for another 30 to 45 seconds. The cooking time varies on how frozen the sandwich is (fridge freezer or deep freezer) and the microwave.

Cinnamon Buns
5- 1/2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Softened To Room Temperature. 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt. 6 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar. 1 whole Large Egg (slightly Beaten). 3- 1/2 cups Unbleached All-purpose Flour. 2 teaspoons Instant Yeast. 1-18 cup Buttermilk (Or Extra If Needed). 1/2 cups Brown Sugar (lightly Packed). 1 teaspoon Cinnamon. 2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Softened. 1/2 cups Raisins (optional). 1/4 cups Unsalted Butter, Softened To Room Temperature. 2 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Softened To Room Temperature. 1 teaspoon Vanilla. 1- 1/4 cup Powdered Sugar.
In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream together the butter, salt, and sugar. Add the egg and mix until smooth. Switch to the dough hook on a stand mixer (or a wooden spoon if mixing by hand), and add the flour, yeast and buttermilk. Mix on low speed until the dough comes together into a ball and clears the sides of the bowl. Knead for 10-12 minutes (12-15 if kneading by hand) until the dough is smooth and silky, a bit tacky but not sticky at all. If its very sticky, add a bit more flour, a tablespoon at a time. If its very dry and not coming together add a bit more buttermilk, a tablespoon at a time. Move the dough to a large, lightly oiled bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Allow it to rise for about 2 hours until it doubles in size. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon and set aside. Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a lightly oiled counter. Roll it out to about 1/2 inch thick in a rectangle thats about 12 by 14 inches. With a rubber spatula, spread the softened butter over the dough, leaving 1/4 inch space around the edges. Spread the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture evenly over the butter. Sprinkle raisins over the sugar if using. Starting from one long side, roll the dough up into a log, keeping it even as you roll. Pinch the seam closed with your fingers and lay the log seam side down on the counter. Using a serrated knife, slice the log into 12 even pieces. Place the cinnamon buns in a 9x13 inch pan and cover tightly with plastic wrap. At this point, you can either refrigerate the buns for up to 2 days, pulling them out 3-4 hours before baking to let them proof, or let them proof (rise) at room temperature immediately for about 90 minutes, or until the the buns have doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 350 F with a rack in the middle of the oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until they are golden brown. While the buns are baking, make the cream cheese frosting. With an electric mixer (or a stand mixer) whip the butter and cream cheese until combined. Mix in the vanilla. Then add the powdered sugar in 3 additions, mixing well after each addition. Whip the frosting until light and fluffy. Set aside, covered tightly with plastic wrap. When the cinnamon buns are finished baking, allow to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then spread the top of them with the cream cheese frosting. Serve warm. Keep any leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator. They reheat well in the microwave. Source: Adapted from the book The Bread Bakers Apprentice by Peter Reinhart.

Tostalada
1 pound Ground Hamburger Meat. 1 package (about 1 Oz. Size) Taco Seasoning. 3 cups Chopped Lettuce. 2 whole Roma Tomotoes Chopped. 1 cup Chopped Green Onions. 1 whole Avocado, Chopped. 1 can (14 Oz. Size) Refried Beans. 12 ounces, weight Grated Sharp Cheddar Cheese. Canola Oil, For Frying Tortillas. 12 whole White Corn Tortillas. 1 can (14 Oz. Size) Red Enchilada Sauce. 1 jar (8 Os. Size) Sliced Japalenos. 1 tub (8 Oz. Size) Daisy Sour Cream. 1 jar (12 Oz. Size) Salsa Of Your Choice.
Brown your hamburger meat and add the taco seasoning (cooking according to instructions on the taco packet). Drain and set aside. Dice lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and avocado. Heat the refried beans either in the microwave (as I did mine while I was chopping) or over the stove on medium heat. If you purchase a block of cheese as I did, go ahead and grate your cheese (freshly grated cheese is to pre-grated cheese as warm homemade cookies are to Keebler Elf pre-packaged cookies). In a small frying pan, pour a couple of inches of canola oil and heat over medium to high heat until it sizzles when you toss in a drop of water. We are going to fry up those tortillas, but first, grab a plate and place a couple of paper towels on it to soak up some of the oil once you fry your tortillas. Also, make sure and use tongs, these puppies will sizzle once theyre in the grease. Using your tongs, place one tortilla in the oil and let it fry up for about 30 seconds, then flip to get the other side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until you have around 12 fried tortillas. Open your can of enchilada sause, japalenos, salsa, and sour cream. Pile it up! Fried tortilla first, then beans, meat, cheese, enchilada sauce, lettuce, tomato, avocado, and onion. Now add another tortilla, then beans, etc. Top with sour cream, salsa, japalenos, and sauce. Dig in. Yum yum.
