Fried Plantains

Sweet Fried Plantains Recipes | Divas Can Cook:

I absolutely looooooooove fried plantains!!!!!

 These do not need an official recipe.
The longest/hardest part of this recipe is waiting for the Plantains to ripen.

 If you're making this for a snack use one large overly ripe Plantain; if you're making these for a crowd use 3 to 4 overly ripe Plantains.
Peel (you have to cut them, these are NOT bananas) Plantains.
Cut Plantains on the diagonal/bias.
You do not need a ton of oil for this "recipe"
I usually coat the pan with olive oil and put a nice big spoonful of Smart Balance and saute' the Plantains.
Because of the natural sugar they tend to stick. :-(
They're done when it's crispy around the edges and soft.
Place on a paper towel to absorb the extra oil.
Sprinkle kosher salt on them and ENJOY!!!!
Optional: drizzle honey over the Plantains and then sprinkle kosher salt on top.

Homemade Taco Sauce

This is nice and uncomplicated! You know the only thing I'd change is the salt and make it kosher, other than that this recipe is clean. I haven't made it yet but I will the next time I need taco sauce! Homemade things are better!

Hough Bakery - butter cookies

By
Hough Bakery By  Gail Greenberg   &   Diane Rolfe Hough Bakery was an integral  part of me and my family's lives, (most people in Cleveland for that matter) I was heartbroken when they closed. I have  always remembered the cookies and doughnuts from this magical bakery. Their products were like nothing I had ever had before (and it was extra  magical because I was so little/young) I have been searching for about 30 years for something similar - no luck... but, thank goodness there are a few recipes floating around the internet! Unfortunately  even with Archie's being open, my food afflictions will not allow  me to enjoy those old time favorites. Luckily, converting is what I do and that's what this site is about so I  will switch some things  around and see how it turns out! The recipe below is just ONE of my all time favorites, please enjoy! Memories of a signature blue-and-white, string-tied cake box filled with a streus...
