Cilantro Dip

Image
By Kristine
My good friend Eden shared this with me. It is great on lettuce wraps, drizzled over nachos or just dipping chips in. Probably not all that good for you, but I used lite when I could.

1 bunch of cilantro (stems chopped off)
2 jalapenos (seeded)
1c buttermilk
1c mayo (have to use mayo not miracle whip)
1 pkg ranch dressing mix

Pop everything in the blender, and blend for a few minutes until smooth. It is very green in color but oh so good. If you want more kick add another jalapeno. If you want less only use one.

Enjoy.

Easy Donuts

Joe introduced me to these, and Paula Deen has a recipe for them on Food Network . So I am jumping to the conclusion that they are popular in the South... :) Here's how we made ours. Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot on medium heat. You want to heat to about 350 degrees, so we used a candy thermometer to monitor the temp. Prepare the toppings. Note - For the toppings, we didn't actually measure any of the ingredients, just eyeballed it. But this is about how much we used. Glaze: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1 Tbsp milk (add more to thin as necessary) Whisk together, set aside. Chocolate Glaze: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 2 Tbsp cocoa powder 1 Tbsp milk (add more to thin as necessary) Whisk together, set aside. Cinnamon Sugar Coating: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 2 Tbsp Cinnamon Whisk together in a dish with a lid or a paper bag, set aside.

Chicken Lettuce Wraps

By Amy
I got this recipe from my mom, who got it from her sister, who got it from...I'm not sure who, but I tried it and Mike and I liked it. It is not an exact replica of PF Changs infamous Lettuce Wraps, but it is similar. Brown chicken (the recipe calls for 2-3 chicken breasts - I used 2) in skillet. Remove and set aside and then either shred or cut into small chunks. Pour 2 T canola or olive oil into skillet and add 1 T grated or minced fresh ginger root and some rice straws, if desired. I used my kitchen shears to cut a bunch off. Rice straws have to be softened in the oil. Cook about 4-5 minutes. Then add back in the chicken you have either shredded or cut. Continue cooking while adding vegetables. I added shredded carrots, broccoli cut into small pieces, water chestnuts cut into quarters, Italian green beans cut into small pieces (slender whole beans cut up would work), red pepper, green onion (or use onion powder), baby corn cobs cut into 2 or 3 slices, and whatever else you would
