Candy Apple Jell-O Shots

Candied apples are another favorite Halloween time treat, and here we’ve created a Jell-O shot version. This apple gelatin is good by itself – tasty, tart, and with just a hint of effervescence from the cider. Top it off with some caramel ice cream topping and it’s perfect. Or, if you want to go the gross-out route, stick in some gummy maggots before it gels for a maggoty apple shot.

Basic Apple Cider Jell-O

1 envelope Knox unflavored gelatin

1/2 cup water

1 cup hard apple cider, divided in half

1/4 cup Apple Pucker or other sour apple schnapps

Combine the water with ½ cup cider in a saucepan. Sprinkle the gelatin over it and let sit for a few minutes. Heat over low heat, stirring, until the gelatin starts to dissolve. Cool till just warm. Stir in the remaining cider and the apple schnapps. Pour into cups and chill. Top with caramel ice cream topping if desired.

Easy as hell quiche in a cup

Wed, 12 Sep 2012 16:52:43 -0700

Prep Time: 10 mins Cooking Time: 30 to 40 mins

Ingredients:
4 eggs
4 egg whites
1/2 cup lowfat milk
1/2 cup shredded part skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups fresh broccoli florets
fresh pepper & sea salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blanch the broccoli in boiling water, dry and chop up into small pieces and set aside. Also set aside 2 to 3 tablespoons of cheddar cheese for sprinkling on top of quiche. Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine eggs and whites and lightly whisk together. Add milk and continue to whisk together. Stir in all remaining cheese and broccoli and finish off with salt and pepper to taste. Spray cups or ramekins with cooking spray and place on a baking sheet. Divide egg mixture evenly among cups, sprinkle with cheddar cheese and bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until beginning to brown. An 8oz ramekin should yield 4 quiches. Note: Coffee cups are generally a bit bigger/deeper than 8oz. If you are using mugs and you want to get the quiches to pop out like the picture (above) it’s best to divide the recipe among 3 cups instead of 4.

Rock candy…. I totally want to make this in a billion different colors. BREAKING BAD STATUS

I haven’t done it personally but I found this online— seems simple enough!:

2 cups water

1 cup white corn syrup

3 1/2 cups sugar

1/4 tsp cream of tartar

Then I added:

1/4 tsp vanilla extract

3 drops of blue gel food coloring

I boiled the mixture and then continued stirring it on the heat until it reached 300 degrees F (used a candy thermometer to measure the temp). At that point, I poured it into a tray to cool. It hardened up in about an hour and then I smashed it to pieces.

Easy as hell Simple "Barbecued" Beef

Sun, 27 May 2012 08:26:24 -0700

This is a great and easy recipe, with two options:

1) Simmer it on the stove
2) Cook it in the Crock-Pot

Ingredients

2 pounds beef chuck or bottom round—cut into several pieces
1+1/3 Cups Salsa (Mild or Medium. I use Old El Paso)
12 oz. can Regular Coca-Cola —not Diet ( 1+1/2 cups)

Instructions

Spray large skillet with cooking spray, and quickly brown the beef well on all sides over high heat. Put beef and any drippings into a large pan. (I use a little of the Coca-cola to dissolve the drippings from the pan, and add) Pour Coca-cola and salsa over the beef , stir, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and let simmer for 2 hours. About 1/2 hour before done, shred the meat with a fork and continue simmering in sauce. Serve on buns.

Alternate method—after browning meat, combine all ingredients in Crock Pot and cook on Low for 7-8 hours, or on High for 4 hours.

This is also good cut up instead of shredded and served over rice or noodles.

*I’ve found that a less chunky style of salsa works best in this recipe.

1/4 cup butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup canola or mild vegetable oil
3/4 cup sugar

In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt; add to the butter mixture and beat on low speed just until combined. The batter will be thick. It needs to be in order to swirl in the Nutella!

Divide the batter between 12 paper-lined muffin cups. Drop a spoonful of Nutella on top of each, and swirl through the batter with the tip of a bamboo skewer, knife or other pointy object. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until springy to the touch. Tilt them in the pan to help them cool. Makes a dozen cupcakes.

table salt
1/2 pound elbow macaroni (about 2 cups uncooked pasta)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 pounds ground beef (85% lean)
2 medium onions, chopped
1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
12 oz Colby Jack cheese, shredded (about 2 1/2 cups)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Stir in 1 tablespoon salt and add dry macaroni; cook until al dente. Reserve 3/4 cup pasta water and drain pasta. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.

Using the same large pot, wipe dry and heat over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and heat until shimmering. Add ground beef and break it up in pieces to brown. Once browned, remove from pot and discard drippings. Set beef aside.

Add remaining oil to the same large pot and return to medium heat until shimmering. Add onions, garlic, red pepper, chili powder, and cumin; cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened and begin to brown.

Add the crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, brown sugar, reserved 3/4 cup pasta water and beef to the pot. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until flavors have blended.

Stir in the cooked pasta, 1/2 cup of shredded cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer mixture to a 9x13 baking dish and smooth over with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the mixture is hot and bubbling.

Remove from oven and sprinkle the top of the dish with the remaining shredded cheese. Return the dish once again in the oven and bake for 5-10 minutes until the cheese begins to melt and brown. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
