Now this is not my recipe.  Nor is it the kind of thing that I usually go for.  I’m more of a straight shooting hard liquor kinda gal.  But this is a mighty tasty mixed drink!

Ingredients:

1-1/2 oz of SKYY Vodka

1/2 oz of XR Fusion Liqueur

1 oz of Cranberry Juice

Place a small piece of cotton candy into your glass.  Then shake & pour the ingredients over cotton candy and done!  Enjoy!

Queso con Carmen

by Carmen on May 7th, 2009 · No Comments

The simplest, ghetto, and delicious recipe ever.  Also incredibly cheap compared to buying a jar of Salsa con Queso at the store.  Here it is:

Ingredients:

1 “brick” of Velveeta cheese

1 jar of your favorite salsa

Place the Velveeta into a baking pan and pour the jar of salsa over top.  I baked at 350 degrees stirring occasionally.    20 minutes later I had a baking pan of queso big enough to serve a party I had of about 20 people with some left over the next day.  Everyone raved about how delicious is was!

  • 1 cup of water

Directions:

-Place the chicken in a crockpot/slow cooker

-Pour 1 cup of water of the chicken

-Pour the entire bottle of Montgomery Inn BBQ sauce over the chicken

*there’s a reason why the back of the bottle lists people like Bill Clinton and Bob Hope (RIP) loving this stuff.  Because it’s fan-freaking-tastic!

-Turn crockpot/slow cooker on High

-Allow 3 hours for the BBQ sauce to blissfully infuse into the delectable chicken

When the  chicken is finished cooking you will have the most tender, delicious, and wonderfully saturated chicken you have ever tasted!  Enjoy!

Premium Lorenz Grilled Cheese

by Carmen on October 27th, 2008 · No Comments

Ingredients:

  • Super Awesome Bread
  • Cheddar Cheese
  • Bacon
  • Butter

Directions:

–Start with a hearty delicious thick bread. We prefer Semolin Batard by Ecce Panis. It’s described as “A very crusty, classic Italian bread sprinkled with sesame seeds”
–Fry some bacon
*for my health conscious or Vegan friends how about some Turkey Bacon or Smart Bacon
–Spread butter/margarine on both sides of the bread
*substitute with some Soy margarine
–Place cooked bacon on the bread between two slices of cheddar cheese. Cook the sandwich until the cheese is loving melted in the sandwich and on the bacon.
*substitute with some Vegan/Soy cheddar cheese

When you’re finished you have a thick, delicious, and easy culinary celebration.
ENJOY!!
