I made homemade bacon in the oven for the first time. I've had quite a lot of free time to myself recently and will have a lot of it coming up pretty soon. I'm hoping I can find a job really fast or else I'll be bored out of my mind. :( Anyways... The first step to making homemade bacon is to find a good butcher. I went to the butcher where I live in Fargo, ND on University Drive. It's a little nice meat place called Prime Cut Meats. The guy there was very nice. Ask for a pork belly loin. The ... continue reading...
Smoked Party Meatloaf
I am not sure if meatloaf is supposed to be smoked. Alton Brown said this was the best meat dish he had ever made on the show Best Thing I Ever Made. The recipe says to smoke the meatloaf for 40 minutes and then take the foil wrap off and cook it for another hour or so until the meat reaches 140 degrees. I did that and everything but the meat just didn't have the smoky flavor to it. Can you guess what the secret ingredient in this meatloaf? He even said it on the show that it was the potato ... continue reading...
Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie
I don't know what you would call this but no matter what it is delicious! It's kind of like a cross between a smoothie and a milk shake. So what would that be called a Smoothshake?

It's a very healthy ice cream! This is kind of the same concept. You blend some frozen bananas together until they become a frozen smooth consistency ... continue reading...
Heaven in a Crockpot.
Have you ever made a dessert in the crock pot before? I have never done that and I wonder why I've waited this long to try it. My cake didn't take 3 hours like the cooking time suggested, it took only about 2. This dessert is pure heaven and reminds me of a trifle dessert that my husband used to eat all the time at Ruby Tuesday's. You need one box of brownie mix and one packet of cookie dough mix. Melt 1 stick of butter in the microwave and take out 4 eggs. Take 1/2 of the melted butter and 2 ... continue reading...
Chocolate Chip Quinoa Muffins
I started off my week vacation making these quinoa muffins and I have much more exciting things to make this week including homemade bacon. This is what Quinoa looks like up close. Almost looks like couscous doesn't it? You shouldn't be afraid of it. It just takes a little time to boil in the water. 10-15 minutes. I used a base recipe from Martha Stewart and just decided to add in chocolate chips. They look like muffins and taste like muffins but these muffins have quinoa in it. ... continue reading...
