Pumpkin Jelly Roll with Cream Cheese Frosting

Written By: Chris - Jul• 29•14

Pumpkin is one of my favorite flavors. I usually wait until fall to prepare pumpkin bars, but I recently hosted the family for Sunday dinner and really was craving something sweet for dessert sims 3 erweiterungen kostenlosen! I think the jelly roll has a nice presentation and everyone thinks it’s fancy, but it really is easy to put together.

I decided on this dessert because I had some puree on hand in the pantry, but be careful because canned pumpkin pie mix could be mistaken for pumpkin puree and it’s not the same mahjong shanghai kostenlos herunterladen! Pumpkin puree is just pumpkin that has been cooked and pureed until it is smooth.

It is just one of those delicious, feel good desserts you serve when you’re having company so you don’t eat it all yourself!

Ingredients:

1 15 oz selfhtml herunterladen. Can Pumpkin Puree
1 Cup Flour (I used a wheat flour from Italy)
1 Cup Sugar
3 Eggs
1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Nutmeg, grated
1 – 2 Tablespoons Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Ginger, powder
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
Chopped Nuts, optional
Salt, dash
Filling:
2 Cups Powdered Sugar, plus some for rolling cake
2/3 package of 8 oz Cream Cheese, room temperature
1/3 Cup Butter, soft
1 Tablespoon Vanilla

Preheat oven to 375 degrees avira virenschutz kostenlosen.

Combine Flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt.

In another bowl, beat the eggs until thick and gradually add in and beat the sugar msvcp140.dll kostenlos herunterladen. Next stir in the pumpkin and lemon juice.

Fold in and combine the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth.

Spray the jelly roll pan with non stick cooking spray and line the pan with parchment paper lieder von youtube herunterladen gratis. Spread the mixture evenly onto the paper in the pan and if using nuts, blend them into the batter gently before spreading.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes Download video on youtube. The cake should spring back with the press of a finger.

Once out of the oven, sprinkle a flour sack towel with a generous amount of powdered sugar and turn the cake onto it. Also sprinkle the inverted side with powdered sugar. I did mine on a cooling rack.

Cool enough to handle and roll in the towel before cooling completely.

Blend filling ingredients well and once the cake is cool, unroll. The cake will have absorbed most of the powdered sugar. Next, spread the filling on evenly.

Roll up again and keep in refrigerator to firm up until ready to serve.

Slice individual servings.

Grilled Chipotle Yogurt Chicken

Written By: Chris - Jul• 10•14

I try to come up with dishes based on ingredients that I have on hand in the fridge and pantry. Typically before travels, I try to limit the groceries in stock and was looking through my slim pickings prior to our recent trip for ingredients to prepare chicken breasts for dinner Download easily. I had some Greek Yogurt, as well as some left over Chipotle Peppers in Adobe sauce and decided to give this combination a whirl! It was simple, but delicious herunterladen!

The acid in the yogurt breaks down the protein to make it tender much like buttermilk would, but be sure not to leave it in the marinade too long or I think the chicken could get mushy herunterladen. The yogurt keeps the chicken moist and adds a slightly sour twang. It tasted great with just the right amount of heat from the adobe sauce, which you could adjust to your liking netflix filme downloaden jdownloader. Greek yogurt is good for you too as it’s loaded with protien. It can have twice as much protein as regular yogurt. One cup of plain, low-fat conventional yogurt usually contains 5 to 10 grams of protein, where Greek yogurt averages about 13 to 20 grams of protein microsoft powerpoint 2016 download kostenlos. Give this a try, it was great!

Ingredients:

2 Chicken Breasts, skinless, boneless
1/2 Cup Greek Yogurt, plain
1 Tablespoon Chipotle Adobo Sauce (you could mine peppers as well)
1 Garlic Clove, pressed
1 teaspoon Cumin
Salt & Pepper, to taste

Combine the yogurt, chipotle sauce garlic and cumin in small bowl amazon gekaufte filmeen mac. Pound chicken breasts to even thickness and season with salt and pepper.

Place breasts into a heavy-duty ziploc plastic bag and coat evenly with yogurt sauce Download 2doc. Seal bag and toss to coat. Marinate for 2 hours, turning the bag occasionally.

Preheat grill and coat with nonstick cooking spray download wordle. Grill for 10 to 12 minutes or until cooked through, turning once. Allow to rest for five minutes or so before serving.

I held out a bit of marinade (don’t use if it has been in contact with raw chicken) and mixed it with about a teaspoon of mayo for a sauce.

We enjoyed the grilled chicken with simple couscous, sauteed vegetables and a cold tomato salad along with a refreshing Rose bahncard herunterladen!

Enjoy!
Cheers!

Pork Loin Roast, Grilled with Herbs

Written By: Chris - Jun• 17•14

I like to serve a pork loin if I’m feed a group and recently prepared one on the grill when we had the kids and Bill’s folks over for dinner download svg files. I prepared a rub with fresh herbs that I had on hand!

I’ve been asked whats the difference between pork loin and pork tenderloin download apps on samsung handy. These two cuts look similar, but you’ll notice that tenderloin is more expensive. The two are cut from slightly different muscles within the same muscle group and the tenderloin is much smaller than a pork loin facebook chat protokoll herunterladen. The tenderloins are often sold two to a package weighing 1.5-2 lbs; or about 3/4 lb each. A single pork loin typically weighs 3-4 lbs. Each are tender and good for grilling, but would use the loin if I was making a roulade videos von bs.to herunterladen. Both are lean cuts and healthy options that are high in protein, low in fat and have more B-vitamins (thiamin, niacin, B6 and B12) than many other types of meat Download android movies for free. These vitamins play a role in a variety of body functions, including metabolism and energy production.

Ingredients:

Pork Loin Roast
1 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Onion Powder
Rosemary, fresh and dried
Thyme, fresh and dried
Basil Leaf, fresh
Oregano, fresh
Garlic, pressed
Salt & Pepper, to taste

Chop the herbs and place them in a bowl with the pressed garlic animes kostenlos downloaden deutsch. Add the oil and mix to combine.

Rub the loin with the marinade mixture and place in resealable bag and seal, removing as much air as possible tia portal download kostenlos. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least two hours, rotating the bag halfway through the time.

When you’re ready to grill, remove the tenderloin from the fridge and allow to sit at room temperature for about a half hour pokemon spiele gratis downloaden deutsch. Preheat the grill.

Once browned, place the tenderloin directly on the center of grate over high heat, turning every few minutes until the outside is becomes browned on all sides angry birds pc free download full version.

Place on top rack and cover, adusting heat to 350 degrees and cook, turning occasionally until the center reaches an internal temperature of 135 to 140 degrees sony vegas for free for every 10.

Keep in mind that the meat will continue to cook a little after being taken off. The time to cook depends on how large your roast is and the general rule of thumb for pork roasts is to cook them 20 to 25 minutes per pound of meat at 350 degrees.

Remove from the grill and allow it to rest for at least ten minutes before slicing. Serve immediately. I prepared a cranberry pork gravy that is one of my favorites!

Enjoy!
Cheers!

Chalupa (Open faced Taco)

Written By: Chris - Jun• 16•14

This is a super easy dish that you can throw together in no time using ingredients that you have on hand in your fridge and pantry Convert cd to mp3 for free download! When I originally started making this dish I thought I was going to make Quesadillas for dinner, which are tortillas filled with a savory mixture of cheese, meat and other ingredients and then either folded in half to form a half-moon shape, or topped with another tortilla like a sandwich and heated through herunterladen! But I decided to make open faced tacos instead. You can call it a chalupa or tostada; an open faced taco or whatever you desire, but according to dear wikipedia, “In Mexican usage, tostada usually refers to a flat or bowl-shaped tortilla that is deep fried” Download video for free youtube.

I’m just going to give you the general idea, not really a recipe using ingredients we created ours with:

Ingredients:

Open-Faced Tacos:
Corn Tortillas
1/2 Lb Ground Beef
Onion, chopped and sauteed with beef
Taco Seasoning
Sunflower Oil

Toppings:
Diced tomatoes
Avocado slices
Sour Cream
Cheddar cheese, shredded
Spinach, thinly sliced
Corn Chips, crumbled
Taco Sauce

Combine the chopped onion with the ground beef and cook over medium heat until cooked through firefox older version. Drain off any access fat and mix with taco seasoning as directed on package. Set aside.

Cook the corn tortilla in a shallow bit of oil just until brown on each side elster auf mac herunterladen. Watch carefully so they don’t burn! Once browned to yur desire, rest them on paper towels to absorb any access oil.

Assemble tortillas by topping with cooked beef, cheese, spinach, tomatoes and your other favorite toppings apple karten offline herunterladen!

These had a nice crunch and were fun to eat in an open-faced form download adobe acrobat for free german. We paired them with a nice 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve from Cosentino! Delicious!
