Jellied Cranberry Sauce

I grew up having cranberry sauce from a can on Thanksgiving day. I loved it! I've tried whole cranberry sauce and wasn't a fan. Then I realized I can make my own cranberry sauce! So I few years ago, I tried to make my own. I discovered it's ridiculously easy to make and wow! so much better then the canned stuff I had been eating my entire life. Now, I won't ever eat it from the can again! I make of lot of cranberry sauce. I don't think I have to make this much, I give some away. You don't have to make as much as I do. I started with 44 oz. of cranberrys. I put 3 1/2 cups of water in a large pot added 3 1/2 cups of sugar and brought to a boil. I turned it down to a simmer and listen to the cranberrys pop! I love this part. I stir it up until they stop popping. I used my hand blender to make sure I all the cranberry's were ground up. I then used the juice of one orange, a very ripe, juicy orange. I squeezed it right into the pot. I decided to add som...

African Chicken

This was the most amazing Chicken!! I actually watched an episode of Diners, Drive ins, and Dives and got the recipe from there. Of course, I didn't have as much cumin as I needed, so I changed and tweaked the recipe and although I never made the original recipe the one I made was fabulous. I use so much Cumin, I need to start buying it in one of those huge containers they sell at BJ's. I thought I had extra down stairs but I didn't. UGH. Anyway here is how I made it. I used 6 thighs and 4 drumsticks I made a paste which was: Cumin about a tablespoon Oregano about 2 tablespoons Pepper teaspoon Salt 2 teaspoons Garlic 1 teaspoon minced Chili powder 1 tablespoon Corriander powder 1 tablespoon mix that together and then add olive oil to make a paste. I put the chicken in 2 aluminum pans and rubbed equal parts of the paste on each piece of chicken until it was gone. I let marinate for an hour. I browned each piece of chicken in a frying pan and then put the ...

Cajun Shrimp Alfredo

This is super yummy and can have as much or as little kick as you choose. You can also use chicken in addition or instead of. I put the water on for the pasta as I started the Alfredo sauce. For the alfredo, I used a saucepan 3/4 brick of cream cheese and milk about a cup. I use a whisk until the cream cheese is melted in the milk. The milk thickens and I add milk until I get the correct consistency. I added about 1/4 cup of heavy cream as well. I stirred in 3/4 cup of parmesan cheese a quarter cup at a time. In the meantime, in a separate pan, I sauteed the shrimp in butter. Added garlic, a couple cloves, and cajun seasoning, again to taste, while cooking. I also added a can of diced tomatoes, well drained and also a teaspoon of pesto. Add the shrimp to the drained cooked pasta and then pour on the alfredo, stir and serve!
