Getting Caught Up! 2/15-2/21/16

2/15/16

The cake I made came out (as The Lil Chef called it... weird)
I just can't with sugar/sweets . I don't know what happened, it's it in the fridge but I'm going to throw it out.

Trying Chicken Steak-umms for the first time!


I have been having some issues so I was trying to cut back more... I really tried but I can not with this bread. I am not vibing with it. I SO wish another company would come out with a yeast free bread that does not cost $10+


I tried a different wrap this time. They were on sale at Heinen's... I like them!


The texture of the chicken was a little different than I expected so it didn't quite come out as planned, it was good.


Attempt #2

OK!... I tried again with the chicken steak-umm and I got it!!! This was excellent!!!!! looks the same but the taste was different!


Mommy/Baby Cheerios!

By now we should all know I love my homemade coffee ice cream/shakes. Here's the problem even with lactose free ice cream I can not have it. Dairy is the official enemy! I can not have any dairy :-( 


This was unexpected and awesome! I was beyond hungry and I had these ingredients in my fridge.

Not overly healthy but Good!!!

Another last minute situation but these turned out great... Mini Corndogs
I took a couple of different methods mixed them all together and tada! I think they need just a little more sugar though to make it a little more authentic.

Hough Bakery - butter cookies

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...

Johnny Mango's Shrimp Fried Rice with Fiery Lime Sauce

Backstory: My friend introduced me to this AMAZING fried rice about 6yrs ago. She asked did I want "fried rice" (I'm thinking "traditional" fried rice) OH NO! I tasted this and my taste buds went crazy!!! I had her bring it as often as I could. Unfortunately I have never been to Johnny Mango (near Downtown Cleveland) myself. I have been craving this for about 6yrs and I am SOOOOO HAPPY that there is a recipe! I do still want to go to   Johnny Mango World Cafe & Bar but until then I will try to recreate it myself. If you ever visit Cleveland OH I suggest checking this out!  INGREDIENTS For the rice 2 cups  jasmine rice (I'd probably use white and brown) 2 3/4 cups  water (filtered clean water) 1 tablespoon  vegetable oil (Olive oil) 1 teaspoon  salt (kosher salt) 2  eggs, beaten 1 teaspoon garlic, minced 6 ounces  shrimp (large 31-40 count) 1/3 cup  scallions, sliced 1 cup  English cucumber, diced (organic) 1 ...
