2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 blanched almond
1 cup light cream

Additional granulated sugar (optional)
Additional cinnamon (optional)

Combine rice, butter, salt and 1 cup water in large saucepan. Heat to boiling, cover and cook 10 minutes. Stir in milk and cinnamon stick. Cover and cook over low heat about 45 minutes or until rice is tender, stirring occasionally. Remove cinnamon stick.

Jello Shots
A breakdown of how to improve jello shots to make shots that solidify properly, and come out cleanly.

•2oz condiment cups with lids. (These are usually sold at Sams Club and you get a billion of them. You can also go to a lot of restaurants and request to buy a sleeve from them )
•Flavors of jello (strawberry, lime, black cherry.. they all do very well.)
•Flavored rum/alcohol (Allowing me to be clear. I use rum because it mixes well, is cheap, comes in many flavors, and is a lower proof. Lower proof means more alcohol per shot. A higher proof you can only put so much in otherwise the shot will not solidify. ANY alcohol can be used, but think of the flavor!!!)
•Boiling water
•Ice cold water
•Pam cooking spray and a 1 oz scoop

This chart indicates the alcohol proof, and the amount of alcohol and cold water that should be added to the mix based on said proof. The recipe I will list after the chart will go based on 80 proof.

Proof: 30-50 - 13 oz alcohol, 3 oz water
Proof: 80-100 - 10 oz alcohol, 6 oz water (I skipped 60-70 because I haven't tested those)
Proof: 150-200 - 6 oz alcohol, 10 oz water (again, didn't test proofs between these, but it makes for a good guestimation)

Okay! how to make them: So easy. 3 oz Jello (one small/regular package), 8 oz boiling water. Mix them together. Add in 10 oz 80-100 proof alcohol, stir. Add in 3-6 oz cold water. Spray unflavored Pam onto a paper towel and coat insides of the cups with it. Use 1 oz scoop to fill condiment cups half way. Stick the lid on so they don't spill, and place in the fridge for at least an hour. I think they actually solidify in less than an hour, but just to be safe!

Shots should be totally solidified, but still with as much alcohol as possible, and the Pam makes them SO easy to get out of the cup instead of them sticking to the sides.

Chicken Nuggets/Boneless Buffalo Wings!
Calories: it's fried..

An awesome recipe I messed with until I perfected it. The best thing is you can make the mix ahead of time and store it, so it's super easy. You'll never go back to store-bought.

The mix:

• 3 cups of Pancake mix (I use Bisquick)
• 2 envelopes Tomato soup mix (if you can't find it, and sometimes I can't, using the knorr tomato/chicken bouillon powder works just as good)
• 2 envelopes Italian dressing mix
• 1 tbsp Paprika
• 2 tsp Dried chervil
• 1 tsp Seasoned salt
• 1 tsp Instant chicken bouillon powder (Add an extra tablespoon of the bouillon above if using that.)
• 1 tsp Dried parsley
• 1 tsp Tarragon
• 1/2 tsp Sage
• 1/4 tsp Pepper

Blend all of these ingredients together in a food processor or blender that handles dry ingredients.

Other ingredients:

• Raw boneless, skinless chicken cut into nugget-sized pieces
• Buttermilk

Soak the chicken pieces in the buttermilk for an hour in the fridge. Take them out, roll the pieces in the mix, and fry as you usually would.

 

[kyuuei]

Easy, healthy breakfast.

1tsp olive oil
Basil
Salt and pepper
Hot sauce
2 eggs
Turkey Bacon
a Tomato.

Set the oven to Broil, and drizzle some of the olive oil onto a tomato cut in half. Salt, pepper, basil, and pop in the oven until wrinkly on top.

Meanwhile, use the remaining olive oil to fry up the two eggs however you like them (I love runny yolk and solid whites), then fry up the turkey bacon in the residue of the oil. Pop a pepperocini to wake you up and you're set!

 

[LEGERdeMAIN]

I like the fancy disposable plates, nice touch. I normally skip plates and eat straight out of pots and pans.

Marinade, Breaded Chicken with Veggies
Calories: no clue
Source: My Recipe I made up

For the Marinade:
- 2 parts Salad Dressing (Any will do, but I used Creamy Balsamic)
- 6 parts Olive oil
- 2 parts Mustard
- 1 part of spices of your desire (I used Montreal chicken spice, lemon pepper, and cayenne)

Chicken legs, quarters, or boneless, skinless breast (I used drumsticks for this recipe )

Marinade the chicken for 1 hour in the fridge. When its done...

For the breading:
- Zatarains makes a chicken shake-and-bake mixture made of Panko..
- Add a bit of chilli powder and cumin to that mixture and you're set!

Shake the marinaded chicken to coat it in the bread crumbs. Line a pan with foil, and bake. (With bones and big, thick pieces: 40-55 minutes. Boneless, skinless breasts 20-30 minutes.)

While the chicken is cooking, I just bought a bag of potatoe-and-broccoli-with-cheese-sauce frozen, and added crinkle-cut carrots to it and let it heat up on the stove and steam itself hot.

Simple Spaghetti
Calories: no clue
Source: My Recipe

I'm mainly adding this because it ties into the next recipe.

Sauce:
- I use a jar of basic spaghetti sauce
- Meatballs or cook up some ground italian sausage
- Fennel, Oregano, Basil, rosemary, cumin, and whatever other spices you like.
- 1 chopped onion and minced garlic
- 1 package of mushrooms
- And of course, spaghetti noodles.

Just bring all the ingredients to a good boily-like thing, and then reduce the heat and allow to simmer on low heat for about 40 minutes. 30 minutes in, add a bit of olive oil to boiling water and cook the noodles. 35 minutes in, cook some ciabatta bread glazed with olive oil and tomato pieces sprinkled with mozzarella cheese. Simple, effective, and awesome.

Most importantly: Place a small container of the sauce aside.

Stuffed Shells
Calories: No clue, but it rocks
Source: My recipe

- Ricotta Cheese
- Frozen spinach thawed, washed a bit, and squeezed mostly dry
- Spaghetti sauce from previous recipe
- Pesto Sauce (They have unique little packages you can boil up now-a-days to make an easy, quick pesto-like taste without all the expensive ingredients)
- Jumbo Shells of course

Line a pan with foil and non-stick-spray the foil. Boil the shells until they're nice and soft, rinse with cold water so they're touchable. Meanwhile, mix equal parts of spinach and cheese together and add some spices you like to the mixture. Fill the shells with the stuffing, and top with tomato sauce. Heat in the oven until they're all nice and hot, and smear pesto sauce on top. Easy, and awesome.

Another way to cook Hot dogs
Calories: However many calories a hot dog is
Source: The Viking cooking guy at the home show

- Crab Oil
- Hot dogs
- Melted butter
- Hot sauce

Very simple, just adds a bit of flavor to hot dogs while cooking them. Add some crab oil to the hot dog and bring it up slowly to a simmering heat. When warmer, transfer to a skillet or bake basted in a 50/50 mixture of melted butter and hot sauce.
