Peppermint Punch

Great for Christmas Parties and very easy. Be prepared to share the recipe!
 1 Half gallon Peppermint Ice Cream
1 cup whole milk
2 liters of chilled Ginger Ale

Makes 1large punch bowl - plan on 2 - 3 servings per person

 In a large punch bowl...first put in the ice cream, then add milk, then slowly add chilled Ginger Ale, stirring to melt ice cream melt into the mixture. It will foam up like an ice cream float does..as it subsides, add more ginger ale.

 If it all does fit in your punch bowl, no worry, just add more ginger ale as you serve it.

 If desired, hang candy canes around your punch bowl.

ASSEMBLE 20 minutes before party.

Crustless Spinach, Bacon, Onion, Feta and Cheddar Quiche

Here you go..... I've been making this for years and I don't measure anything so I'll give you my guesstimates. You can't mess this up ...it's a great basic recipe to make your own creation. 

 Deep quiche dish, mine is pottery so I grease it with bacon grease. Mom's is glazed, I don't grease that one. (Or use a cast iron skillet or deep pie plate) I made this for low carb high fat diet...

 8 strips of your favorite bacon cooked, not crispy (crumbled)

 I large onion, sliced into thin rings

 1 TBSP sugar (skip if you don't want to Caramelize onions or are diabetic)

 1 package frozen spinach, thawed and very well squeezed and drained 

 1 hefty tsp chopped garlic ( I use stuff in the jar) 

 1 hefty tsp dried Italian herbs 

 1 pint heavy cream 

 3 oz feta cheese with tomato and basil (half of the 6 oz pkg)

 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese shredded 

 3 large eggs well beaten (if I have an extra yolk or two around I will also add those) 

 Here we go: 

 Fry bacon in large skillet.... I do it in batches and leave grease in, just keep adding bacon, it cooks softer that way. Remove bacon to a plate covered with paper towels to drain and cool until you can crumble it. 

 To the skillet of bacon grease....add the large onion, sliced into rings....cook until they are limp and Caramelizing. I add the sugar and stir them constantly until well caramelized. DRAIN THESE WELL ON A LOT OF PAPER TOWELS.

 In a large bowl, beat 3 eggs well, add garlic and Italian herbs, heavy cream and add the well drained spinach and feta cheese. Set mixture aside. 

 Assemble quiche- 

 Bacon goes down first 

Top with cooked onions

Top with 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese 

Slowly pour egg mixture over the top and spread evenly. 

 Bake at 350 degrees for 35- 50 minutes or until butter knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.

 Remove from oven and let set 10-15 minutes before serving. 

Enjoy.

 It's good cold.

 Low sodium version - use chicken instead of bacon and use Swiss cheese instead of cheddar 

 Other combos you might like (don't expect them to top bacon) 

       Sausage , broccoli cheddar 

       Sausage zucchini, cheddar 

       Add mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes, left over potatoes...etc 

There's no real recipe....you can't mess this up.

 I personally love the feta cheese combined with cheddar.

1. Prepare and bake your chocolate cake following instructions on the cake mix box. When the cake is done cooking, take it out of the oven and poke the cake all over with a fork.
2. Microwave your hot fudge and pour ¾ of the jar on top of the cake so it will soak in.
3. Combine cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk in a large bowl or stand mixer and beat until smooth. Add peanut butter and continue mixing until thoroughly incorporated. Add half of the cool whip and continue mixing it until smooth.
4. Spread peanut butter mixture evenly over cooled cake. Cover and refrigerate until cool.
5. Spread remaining cool whip over peanut butter mixture. Drizzle rest of hot fudge over top. Then sprinkle the crumbled reese's peanut butter cups over top. Store in the fridge until ready to serve.

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Mix dry ingredients and beer.
3. Pour into a greased loaf pan.
4. Pour melted butter over mixture.
5. Bake 1 hour, remove from pan and cool for at least 15 minutes.
6. UPDATED NOTES: This recipe makes a very hearty bread with a crunchy, buttery crust. If you prefer a softer crust (like a traditional bread) mix the butter into the batter instead of pouring it over the top.
7. Sifting flour for bread recipes is a must-do. Most people just scoop the 1 cup measure in the flour canister and level it off. That compacts the flour and will turn your bread into a "hard biscuit" as some have described. That's because they aren't sifting their flour! If you do not have a sifter, use a spoon to spoon the flour into the 1 cup measure. Try it once the "correct" way and you will see an amazing difference in the end product.
8. I have had many email from you kind folks about using non-alcoholic beverages instead of beer. That is fine to do but I highly recommend adding a packet of Dry Active Yeast or 2 teaspoons of Bread (Machine) Yeast so that you get a proper rise.
9. The final result should be a thick, hearty and very tasteful bread, NOT A BRICK! ;t).

BLT Pan Pizza

Servings: 13”x18” pizza 

Ingredients:

Crust
4 cups gluten-free pizza crust mix

4 ½ tsp. active dry yeast (2 packets)

2 ¼ cup warm water

¼ cup olive oil

Toppings
1 lb. bacon, cooked and cut into ½” pieces
8 oz. sharp cheddar cheese
6 oz. fontina or jack cheese
6 oz. provolone cheese
8 Roma tomatoes, sliced
1 bunch fresh spinach
1 bunch green onions
2 cups red pizza sauce or pesto

Cornmeal (optional)

Directions:
Make pizza dough following instructions on the gluten-free pizza crust mix package. Instead of letting the dough rise in the bowl of the mixer, prepare a sheet pan with nonstick spray and cover with a piece of parchment. Spray the parchment and sprinkle with cornmeal (optional). Spread dough into pan, cover with plastic and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled.

Pre-heat oven to 475° F and place rack in top third of oven. Bake crust for 7-10 minutes, until it starts to brown at the corners and on the bottom.

Remove crust from oven and layer with sauce, spinach, cheese, tomatoes, bacon and onions. Reduce temperature to 450° F and bake for 8-10 minutes until cheese is bubbling. Let cool on rack and cut into small pieces.
