| Best traditional Chili |
|
|
A great and easy chili. Fills the entire black oval crockpots. Feeds 6. Pair with the cornbread muffins. Takes 5-6 hours on low so plan accordingly.
|
| Creamy Pesto Gnocchi |
|
|
A lot of people just buy pesto in a jar, but this is easy to make provided you have a food processor. This dish is full of flavor and very filling given the amount. You can always toss in some sauteed mushrooms or grilled chicken, add garlic bread and a side salad.
3/4 lb Gnocchi per person eating.
|
| Sweet and Spicy Salmon |
|
|
Jalapeno Jelly covered and broiled salmon create a yummy crust. Pair with stuffed bell peppers.
|
| White Bean Veg Chili |
|
|
A great deviation from the basic vegetarian chili, this white bean chili is full of flavor with roasted poblanos and corn. It fills the crockpot and is sutable for up to 4 guys, maybe 5 with more beans added.
|
| Naan Bread |
|
|
Naan Bread. It's expensive but tastes so damn good. Here's a way to make it your self. Very easy.
|
| Zack's Focaccia Bread (Thick Pizza Crust) |
|
|
For those that have had the privilage of eating Zack Smith's (AMR Station 2) Focaccia Bread, here's the recipe. This also works great as a thick pan pizza crust if you use a cast iron skillet.
|
| Olive Garden Minestrone Soup |
|
|
Here's a great Olive Garden copycat soup to have with salad and bread. Feeds 7 for station 1. I made it with Zack's Focaccia Bread.

| Mushroom Stroganoff |

|
Beef stroganoff for those who don't like running to the bathroom from Rich Foster's heavy cream, butter, sour cream, rich gut bomb. (You know I'm right)
|
| Smokey Mushroom & Vegetable Stew |
|
|
Smokey Mushroom & Vegetable Stew
This is a classic "Beef Tasting" stew recipe that serves well with rolls for dipping. It has that meat stew smell and taste without the meat. This works well in the slow cooker started around noon.
|
| Eggplant Pasta Sauce |
|
|
Eggplant Pasta Sauce
This is a fantastic difference from the plain old spaghetti sauce we all know so well. It's fresh and you can make it a bit spicy if you like. The eggplant makes it sweet while the capers give it just the right kick. Pasta Norma is it's name.
|
| Roasted Vegetable Paninis |
|
|
Many of you who remember Julie Larr will know these paninis. Paninis are just grilled sandwhichs on Italian bread. The possibilities are endless and open to your imagination. Italian meats, different cheeses, seasonal vegetables... the sky's the limit. Want to try something crazy? Try a pear, gorganzola panini or a lemon asparagus panini.

| How to cook grains |
|
|
|
Have you ever wanted to try cooking something other than white rice but didn't know how to do it?
Brown Rice - 1 cup of brown rice to 2 cups of water. Rinse your rice a few times and add the required amount of water (2 to 1). Bring it to a boil, reduce and simmer for 45 min. Yes, I said 45 min. No peeking. After 45, check and fluff with fork.
Millet - 1 cup millet to 2 cups water or broth. Put in into a pot together, bring to a boil and back to simmer for 20 min tightly covered. Check to see if liquid is absorbed. Let stand 5 min and fluff.
Bulgur Wheat - 1 cup bulgur to 2 1/2 cups water or broth. Bring water or broth to a boil, remove from heat, add bulger, stir and let sit 30 minutes. Strain remaining liquid and serve.
Quinoa - 1 cup quinoa to 2 cups water or broth. Place both in pot together and bring to boil, reduce and simmer 15 minutes tightly covered. Take lid off and finish until all water absorbed or evaporated.
Couscous - 1 cup couscous to 1 1/2 cups water or broth. Bring water or broth to a boil, remove from heat, add couscous and let stand 5-10 minutes.
The above grains can be used in grain salads, veggie burgers, stuffed bell peppers, whatever.

| Hummus - Make your own |
|
|
Hummus consists of a basic recipe but all you have to do to jazz it up is to add your favorite spices and seasonings.

| Easy Baby Back Ribs |
|
|
Easy Baby Back Ribs
First things first... This recipe is for baby back or pork back ribs because those are the best. Don't waste your time or money on those St. Louis Style or Country Style ribs. Baby/Pork Back ribs come from the top of the hog nearest the spine (hence, eating "High on the Hog). They are most tender and easiest to cook and eat.
