As the summer us coming slowly to the end and one of the best fruits is coming into season here in MN, the classic apple. In this cranberry walnut chicken salad is a great on a sandwich, on a bed of tender greens or as a side dish for your late summer BBQ. The apples are a perfect addition to a salad as it is packed with a sweet, fiber filled crunch to the dish. The best part is the dish takes only a few minutes to perpare.
The State fair up here in Minnesota is a serious deal around here. You can get 100's of different dishes and everything under the sun deep fried for your enjoyment. Unfortunately this year we will have to be missing is due to the status of the world and other things. This state-fair funnel cake is a simple little dish that is fun for both and kids to make. The batter is only a few ingredients, almost all are staples in everyone's kitchen and they fry up within minutes. My daughter loves watching them fry and puff up into a fun web design then drenching them in powder sugar and other sweet tasty toppings.
As summer is coming to a slow end, the tomato plants are producing so much that its hard to keep up. If you are in the same situation these quick and easy spiced pickled tomatoes are perfect. The pickled tomatoes are perfect on a crisp green salad, grilled meats and the best, crusty bread that soaked up the delicious pickling liquid with the tender tomatoes on top. These pickled tomatoes take no more than 30 minutes to prepare and a few more hours to soak up the pickling liquid.
Are you craving a delicious savory sandwich for lunch or dinner that takes almost no time to prepare? Then this Cheesy Hot Ground Beef Sandwich Recipe is perfect for you. The thick ground beef filling is a mix of a classic sloppy joe and a philly cheesesteak. The preparation takes under 30 minutes and is a perfect kid-friendly meal for any time of the week.
This easy prep sausage and egg casserole is the perfect dish for your next brunch or get-together. The casserole is packed with pork sausage, fluffy eggs and cheddar cheese. The homemade bread croutons soak in the egg and keep the casserole firm and moist throughout. There is no need to soak the casserole overnight and can be prepared and cooked all within one hour.
One of the best appetizers are crab cakes. They are extremely easy to make and always have the appearance of being a high end appetizer, at least in landlocked Minnesota. The chunks of lump crab meat and the crisp outer crust make a great summer dish. These Jalapeno crab cakes are extremely flavorful and a little bit spicy, however these will make a great impression on your friends and family. Serve it a few lemon wedges and sour cream to help mellow out the spiciness.
In this quick and easy Beef and Broccoli Lo Mein, the flavor melts in your mouth with sliced tender beef with broccoli, carrots, and noodles. The sauce is simple and adds such a great flavor that finishes off this easy meal! All of the ingredients are staple ingredients that are in a bunch of different dishes and are available in almost every grocery store making it even easier for dinner on any night.
As the season for peaches is in full swing and hot outside, it is the perfect time for some cool and refreshing peach salsa. This fresh peach salsa is simple to make, only taking about 15 minutes to prepare. I like that peach salsa is a little more sweet from the ripe peaches and plus it is a bit less acidic than a regular tomato salsa. Not only is it delicious as an appetizer with tortilla chips or it is also really good as a topping for chicken, fish and pork.
Looking for a quick and east dinner that is perfect for any night, this chicken dish might be up your alley. In this honey glazed chicken, the chicken is marinated quickly packing it with a fist layer of flavor then roasted and based with a honey whiskey glaze that sticks and coats the chicken. The skin on the chicken helps hold in the juices and keeps the chicken moist and get perfectly golden brown and crisp in the quick 30 minute cook time.
In a medium bowl, whisk the soy sauce with the whiskey, honey, ginger, black pepper, sesame oil and cinnamon. Place the chicken pieces in a zip top bag and pour the marinade over the chicken and press excess air out of the bag. Seal tightly and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hours.
In a small bowl, combine the honey, lime juice, whiskey, soy sauce, pepper flakes, cilantro and brown sugar; stir until the sugar is dissolved.
Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Arrange the chicken on the baking sheet, skin side up and brush with the glaze.
Roast the chicken in a 350°F oven for about 30 minutes, until cooked through and 165°F internal. Baste the chicken with the glaze every 10 minutes or so. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes then serve.
