Green Bean Fries A couple of weeks ago I was emailed by a reader to try Green Bean Fries, like the ones at T.G.I. Friday’s. So I went to the source and tried them. They were good, but mine might have been sitting around for a while as they were a little mushy. I served the green bean fries with a side of ranch dressing. Green Bean Fries 1 pound green beans1 cup flour1 egg1/2 cup milk2 cups panko bread crumbs2 tsp garlic powder2 tsp Hungarian paprika1 tsp onion powderKosher saltpepper Rinse and then trim off the ends of the green beans by snapping the ends off. Fill a medium/large pan with a couple of inches of water and place the pan over high heat on the stove . When the time is up drain the beans and place them into a bowl of ice cold water. Next set up three dishes for the breading process. In the first dish add the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika and a pinch of salt and pepper. Now using the fork pick up the egg washed green beans and place them into the panko bread crumbs.
Root Beer Float Cupcakes Awhile back I did one of the darnedest things. You may recall. I made this root beer float. Let me rephrase that. Even though root beer has never really tickled my fancy, I’ve developed something that some may call an… addiction. See that frosting up there? I’ll say it again in because I can’t really believe it either. Root beer frosting. Root. I don’t want to lead you astray, so I’m going to tell you a little secret. We’re friends right? The root beer flavor doesn’t come from just root beer. Then I tried some more. It was then that I caved. Contrary to what Mr. I made my way to the spice aisle and spied what I’ve longed to pick up in the past, but could never bring myself to shell out the $6 for: root beer concentrate. However, perhaps now is when I should mention that one should not taste root beer concentrate on it’s own. But enough about me. It’s time to talk cupcakes. Then I made hot fudge peanut butter stuffed cupcakes. But these beat them all. Root Beer Float Cupcakes 1 egg

cheesy baked artichoke dip in college i was a waitress and bartender at The Loring Bar & Cafe in Minneapolis. it is where i met alex, so it will always hold a very special place in my heart. it was a really great place to work - cool co-workers, great customers and excellent food. the one thing that we were known for was artichoke dip. i can't tell you how many times i ate that for dinner. it was incredible but since The Loring closed no other artichoke dip has even came close to replacing it. i have tried several recipes for artichoke dip that really sucked. too dry - to heavy - not enough flavor - i have covered them all. but this recipe is the last artichoke dip recipe i will ever need. it is similar to the Loring recipe - dare i say - it might be even better. let me put it this way - this is THE BEST artichoke dip! i apologize for the weird measurements - i doubled the original recipe because it just didn't make enough! alex did a beautiful job of modeling the dip :) Yield: Makes about 2 2/3 cups Preheat broiler.
Red Velvet Brownies With Cream Cheese Icing We always find ourselves buying cookies when visiting the mall. I noticed a Red Velvet Brownie in the window after we ordered a few weeks ago and decided it looked incredibly easy to duplicate. I didn't try the one at the store, but knew it was absolutely delicious because it combines three of my favorite things-Brownies, Red Velvet, and Cream Cheese! This is what I came up with-next time I might only use half of the box of Red Velvet Cake and save the other half for cake pops. :) I know it doesn't look like the bottom part is done, but it is-I used a fudge-like brownie mix and added even more chocolate chips to make it gooey. I used box Red Velvet Cake and Brownie Mix. I am a mom of two small children, so I often take the easiest approach that also happens to be incredibly yummy. Instructions: Preheat Oven to 350 and grease a 13x9 pan(I actually used a larger lasagna pan). Make Brownies according to directions on box and pour into pan.
