Garlic Cheese Bread

OMG.   Can I give something 15 stars?!   I had some garlic cheese bread at Dominos this weekend which was very good...and I don't usually like Dominos.   Then low and behold I watched the Pioneer Woman make some on my dvr, and it looked very similar.   So I gave it a go.

I would have never guessed the "secret" binding ingredient*, and it goes so well.....

Ingredients
3-1/2 cups Cheddar Cheese
3/4 cups mozzerella
1/2 cup  Parmesan Cheese
1/2 cup  Mayo (I use the olive oil kind)*
1 dash Salt
1 loaf Crusty French Bread
1 stick Butter
4tbs miced Garlic


Preparation Instructions
Mix cheeses with the mayo. Add dash of salt to taste and set aside or keep in fridge until you need it.

Cut loaf of bread in half, then each half into half again.

Working 1/4 loaf at a time, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet and add 1/4 of the minced garlic. Place 1 of the 1/4 loaves face down in the skillet, swirling it to soak up the butter and garlic. Allow bread to toast in the skillet, removing garlic if it starts to get too brown.

Repeat with remaining butter, garlic, and bread.

Spread cheese mixture on  loaves and bake at 425 degrees until cheese is melted (about 10 minutes)

If you wanted some bacon pieces or jalepeno pieces it could spice it up a little for you too!   Did I say YUM? 

5Stars--  One bite in and Caden was asking if I could make this again tomorrow!!!


We also used some french bread to make some individual pizzas.   We topped them with a jar of pizza sauce, turkey sausage, green olives, mushrooms, mozzerella, and pepperjack.    They were MIGHTY tasty and came in with a CalorieCount of 248 (for 1/8 of the french bread, cut in 4ths and then halved)

MN Wild Rice Burgers

After a recent trip to Duluth, where I had the BEST wild rice burger at Fitgers Brewhouse, I came home and decided to try my hand at it.    I googled and found this recipe that even MENTIONED Fitgers version, so I knew I had to start there!   I started off by cooking up a batch of wild rice.   I'd say it made about 3 cups cooked. While the wild rice was cooking, I sautéed up some minced garlic, diced celery and diced onions in a tablespoon of olive oil.  Until they were translucent.  As an after though I threw these in a food chopper because I knew chunks of these items in a burger would turn my kids off! Once that was done, I mixed my wild rice and sautéed veggie mix together.   Next I threw in 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs.  The recipe above called for Asiago cheese, I however could not find any and instead used shredded parmesan.   I seasoned the mix with sea salt, crushed black pepper, oregano, thyme, paprika and caye...

Taco Soup

 My blood, sweat and tears went into this one.  Its a toughy.  Okay; skip the sweat, the blood and tears just came from the butter knife I used to chop up the chicken.  WHO manages to slice open a finger with a BUTTER KNIFE?!  Oh, yeah, MOI! Other than that event; this may have been the easiest thing I've cooked in months.     The hardest part of this recipe was the fact that Fareway foods did not carry green enchilada sauce, and I had to decide what to do instead.   Here is the cast of characters: 1 (15 oz.) can black beans, drained and rinsed 1 (15 oz.) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed 1 (14.5 oz.) can petite diced tomatoes, drained 1 (15.25 oz.) can sweet corn, drained --Oh ha, you don't see this in my picture!??  Silly me; its certainly NOT because I hate corn.  Nope....must have just been missing.    1 (12.5 oz.) can white chicken breast, drained 1 (10.75 oz.) can cream of chicken soup 1 (10 oz.) c...
