Hello Ladies,

I thought yall was listing recipes-not the dishes. I was eagerly checkin' this for a recipe I could try; and all I see here are favorite dishes. Can yall help a brutha out?

That's what I was asking for! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif

Do you guys bake your mac-n-cheese? I love it! I use three different types of cheese:Cheddar, colby, and american. I shred all three(8oz) in a large bowl then add two eggs, and can and 1/2 of evaporated milk, salt, pepper, accent, and a dash of Tony's Charchere's seasoning. I stir it all really well before I add it all to my noodles(I use all types of noodles, it just depends on my mood)I put it all in a baking dish and bake on 350 until the cheese on top gets a light brown.

That's the way my sister makes it! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Hey Ladies,
I have this pasta dish that I love to make...especially when I want to be in a romantic mood with my sweetie (that's why I've been away so long). It calls for grilled chicken breast, jumbo shrimp, mushrooms, olives, and bell peppers. Stir-fry it all together in the Wok and add the Marinara sauce at this point. Before long it will be ready to eat, but don't forget to cover it with a little bit of shredded parmasan cheese (optional). I like to serve this dish with a fresh green salad and my homemade salad dressings. I also like to bake my own bread with this one now that I have my bread maker http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

In just baked another one of my favorite recipies!

Cheesecake! The quick and easy way.

A ready made graham cracker crust, 16oz of cream cheese, 3tbspoons of vanilla extract,1/2 cup sugar, and two eggs.

After getting the cheese at room temperature put it all in a bowl and blend until smooth, then put the mixture in the crst and bake in a pre-heated (350)oven until the sides are golden brown(That's how I like it)

It was so good, and I didn't slave over it! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif

I make that too! Do you add the lemon, sugar, and sour cream mixture to the top?
It is optional.

This time I used strawberries. Other times I use caramel topping, or I just eat it plain.

Do you have a good "pecan candy" recipe?(for those of you that don't know...I'm talking about Pralines http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif

Guuuurrrrrrl,
I have my very own "pecan candy lady" at school. I just place my order, buy the ingredients and she makes it for me... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

I'll ask her for the recipe and pass it on to you... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

SMOTHERED POTATOES WITH MEAT ( I eat these for breakfast, lunch and dinner )

-Take a few white potatoes ( can't remember the correct name-they come in the bag at the grocery stores ), peel, cut and clean them in cold water-then season to taste ( I use Lawry's, garlic salt and black pepper ).
-Put a bit of oil in a pot, heat it, then add potatoes and cook until they become translucent ( see through ) or as tender as you'd like.
-Add sliced yellow onion and cubed meat pieces ( I usually use ham/sausage that has been previously cooked, but any kind will do-it's all on your preferences) and water to the pot, put lid over it and let it cook until the potatoes are soft and the water has cooked down.
-You will know when the potatoes are done when they are tender, and they look almost mushed (easily breakable)

Hey everyone..I'm in search of an exceptional barbecue sauce. I've looked through a few cookbooks on soul/southern cuisine and believe that there wasn't any family recipes to speak of. And when I tried the sauces, they weren't...uh, speaking to a sister!

So, if you have an exceptional (in your opinion) recipe, would you mind posting it here. Alternatively, if you have a book recommendation that contains excellent BBQ sauce recipes, that would be much appreciated. I'd prefer ending my days of getting my sauce fix from the Kraft, and Piggly Wiggly bottles....I wanna make my OWN sauce.

Suggestions please!

Girl I never knew how to make my own but I kick mine up a notch

I usually use Kraft's hickory smoke sauce then add Lea & Perrins, mustard, and a pinch of sugar. I know it sounds WAYYYYYY off but it's really good. When I can find it I also add in a little Open Pit sauce. The combo changes the falvor to the point when people ask where in the world I found such a great sauce....I tell 'em it was a secret family recipe! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Pecan Rum Cake

This is the best cake ever!!!

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
1 pound light brown sugar
1 cup sugar
5 eggs
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon rum extract
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup pecans, finely ground
1/2 cup cane syrup
1/4 cup rum

Combine flour; baking powder and salt in a bowl. Set aside. In the
bowl of an electric mixer; beat butter until light. Beat in sugars
until well-mixed, scraping down sides of the bowl occasionally. Beat in
eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in flour
mixture, alternating with milk. Fold in extracts and pecans. Pour
batter into a greased and floured 10-inch Bundt pan and bake in a
preheated, 300-degree oven for 90 minutes. Cool in pan for 5 minutes,
loosen cake from sides of pan, then turn onto rack to cool completely.
Heat cane syrup in saucepan over high heat; add rum and cook until
reduced by 1/2 to a glaze. Brush cooled cake with glaze.

Thanks so much! You're secret is safe with me! My dad used to try something similar whever he was under pressure...so exquisit you're in company with the old schoolers with your technique...Go Girl!

Any more BBQ sauce recipes out there?????
