Snickerdoodles

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar, plus 2 T for coating
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups flour
2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 T cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter and sugar for 3-4 minutes until light. Add eggs 1 at a time, mixing completely after each.

Stir together flour, cream of tartar, soda and salt. Beat the dry ingredients into the butter and sugar mixture until blended - adding a little at a time.

Refrigerate dough for about 20 minutes until firm enough to roll into balls.

Combine the cinnamon and remaining sugar

Roll dough into walnut sized balls and roll into sugar and cinnamon mixture. Place on baking sheet and bake 8-10 minutes.


To freeze - roll dough balls in sugar mixture and place on a cookie sheet. Freeze and place in a freezer bag for later use. Allow dough to soften at room temperature before baking.

Note: This is the original recipie as my Mother and I always made; however, we make the marinade using these same proportions for any size fish we have. We marinate for whatever length of time is practical. Then we broil the fish in the oven and follow the directions for slipping off the skin etc; but we cook the fish in the marinade so that we use the cooked sauce to serve over rice.

INGREDIENTS
2-3 pounds salmon filet (fresh filet of halibut works well also)

Marinade
2/3 cup tamari or soy sauce
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons grated ginger root
juice of 1 large lime
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 scallions, finely chopped

Garnish:
2 red peppers, cut into big slices

DIRECTIONS
1. To Marinate Salmon:
Put Tamari, oils, ginger root, lime juice, garlic, and scallions in a small mixing bowl; whisk together. Place Fish in a shallow pan and pour marinade on top. Allow to marinade one hour in the refrigerator.

2.To Grill Salmon:
When the coals in your grill are just becoming white, remove the fish from the pan and place fish on the grill, skin side down. Brush the top with part of the marinade and grill the fish for about 5 minutes. Turn the fish over and remove the skin; it should come off easily. Brush the top with marinade again and grill for 3-4 minutes more, until the fish is tender at the thickest part. Flip it over and serve grilled side up. Roast chucks of red peper on grill while cooking fish and serve as a garnish.



Now the recipe is intended to be broiled..or grilled. But if you choose to use it in the microwave, i recommend cooking only a couple filets at a time, otherwise they dont cook fully, and end up a bit raw. so do two at most per bag in the microwave, and remember, dont dump the marinade, use it in the bags and/or cook the fish in the marinade if you're broiling it. it turns into a great sauce for over rice...

Enjoy!

Never had tamari and I don't like soy sauce but other than that it sounds good.

I tried this the other night and it was good. However, I didn't use the fresh cilantro because the smell made me nauseous and gave me a headache. There was enough leftover for lunch the next day.

One-Skillet Ranch-Style Beef Supper

INGREDIENTS
1 lb lean ground beef
1 box (8 oz) seasoned rice & black beans (I used Goya)
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies (I couldn't find a big can so I used two of the small cans)
1 box (10 oz) frozen corn kernels
1⁄2 cup packed cilantro
1 cup (4 oz) shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

PREPARATION
1. Cook beef in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up clumps of meat with a spoon, 4 minutes or until beef is no longer pink.

2. Stir in rice and beans, tomatoes, corn and 21⁄2 cups water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover and simmer 20 minutes or until the water has been absorbed.

3. Meanwhile chop cilantro. Sprinkle on servings along with the cheese.


(Next time I make this I am going to change it up. I am going to use sausage instead of beef and jambalaya style rice and beans instead of the black beans & rice. Then add some green pepper and it will be like a quick jambalaya Grin )

This is one of my favorite crock pot meals. It is so good the next day too.

Slow Cooker Jambalaya

Ingredients

1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
1 medium green bell pepper, chopped (1 cup)
2 medium celery stalks, chopped (1 cup)
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 can (28 oz) Progresso diced tomatoes, undrained
2 cups chopped fully cooked smoked sausage
1 tablespoon parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon red pepper sauce
3/4 pound uncooked peeled deveined medium shrimp, thawed if frozen (I haven't used this before, I have just used the sausage)
4 cups hot cooked rice

Preperation

1. Mix all ingredients except shrimp and rice in 3 1/2- to 6-quart slow cooker.
2. Cover and cook on low heat setting 7 to 8 hours (or high heat setting 3 to 4 hours) or until vegetables are tender.
3. Stir in shrimp. Cover and cook on low heat setting about 1 hour or until shrimp are pink and firm. Serve jambalaya with rice.

Here is a note from the recipe:
Note: This recipe was tested in slow cookers with heating elements in the side and bottom of the cooker, not in cookers that stand only on a heated base. For slow cookers with just a heated base, follow the manufacturers directions for layering ingredients and choosing a temperature.

1-2 heads of fresh broccoli tops (do not use frozen!) chopped
1/2 c. chopped red onion
1/4 c. low-sodium bacon (cooked crisp)
1/2 c. grated mozzarella
1/2 c. grated sharp cheddar (I use 2% reduced fat)
1/2 c. chopped apple (Fuji or Wash. State yellow work best)

2 1/2 tbsp. red wine vinegar
1 c. Hellman's mayo
1/3 c. sugar

Mix first 6 ingredients together, set aside. Using whisk, mix vinegar, mayo and sugar until smooth. Pour over broccoli mix and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to allow flavors to mix.

*You can also use plain white vinegar for this recipe but the red wine vinegar tastes best, IMO.

**You can make this with 2-3 tbsp. of sunflower seeds to add more magnesium and Vitamin E.

Goes awesome with cheese and tortilla chips, too!!!!!!! I posted a similar recipe that cooks in the crockpot all day. But I will try this one too because sometimes you just don't think ahead for dinner and get the craving for some good chili!
