Guacamole~made easy

Ingredients: Avocados and Salsa

Cut ripe avocados in half, discard seed

Use a spoon to scoop the flesh from the shell

Place in mixing bowl

Mash with a fork or potato masher

Pour in your favorite salsa, just enough to mix well

Well mixed avocado and salsa, refrigerate for about 30 minutes to meld the flavors

Finished product, serve with your favorite chips

Venison Roast or Beef~ whichever you prefer

Ingredients
 Place frozen roast in Dutch oven or Slow Cooker (this one is the Pampered Chef RockCrock)

Pour Root Beer over roast and add water so that entire roast is underwater. Add bullion cubes.

Cover and cook on Med/simmer for 4 -6 hours
Roast will literally "FALL" apart. Serve immediately or save for sandwiches or Stroganoff or Fajitas.
This will have a "sweet" taste due to the Root Beer.

Christmas Confections and Cookies

Christmas Cookie Baking Day 2013

Jalapeño Popper Dip

Jalapeño Popper Dip
 Ingredients

Mix 1st 6 ingredients together

 Place in Baking dish
 Mix bread crumbs, butter, and Parmesan cheese
Sprinkle on top 
 Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 mins
Serve with Crackers or chips


Ingredients:

2 (8 ounce) packages of cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup mayo
1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese (half Monterrey Jack, half Cheddar)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chillies
1 (4 ounce) can diced jalapenos
1 cup panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (yes another 1/2 cup)
1/2 stick of butter, melted

Directions:

Combine the first 6 ingredients in a mixer or food processor and blend until smooth.
You do NOT need to drain the cans of chillies or jalapenos.

Spread the dip into a greased casserole dish.
I used a large pie plate.

In a bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese and melted butter.

Sprinkle crumb mixture evenly over the dip and bake
in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 20 minutes.

You want the top to get browned and the dip
to be heated through and bubble gently on the edges.

You do NOT want to over-bake this dip.
The mayo will begin to separate and leave you with a greasy mess.
