2 medium sweet potatoes
1-2 T EVOO
Salt & pepper
Preheat oven 425. Cut potatoes in long strips like fries or large squares. Leave skin on. Place on cookie sheet. Liberally cover with EVOO and salt and pepper. Bake for approx. 20 min. Check at 8 min. and turn potatoes.
Easy and healthy!
Irish Nachos
Thin potato rounds sliced and soaked (10 minuets in water). Drain and pat dry
Season them with 2 t. paprika, 3 t. garlic salt, 2 T. olive oil, and salt and pepper. Spread out on a dark baking pan and cover with foil. Bake for 10min at 450. Remove foil and bake another 10 min. Flip and cover with foil and repeat baking from above until potato rounds are fairly crispy, but not burnt. (Basically cook how you would do homemade fries) Then liberally put cheese & cooked shredded corned beef and broil for a few minuets to melt. Add all the fixings...diced tomatoes, jalapenos, sour cream, chives, etc.
Enjoy!
Great with beer :-) Cheers.
Chicken Club Wrap
2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
3 cups chopped cooked chicken
4 slices chopped crispy bacon
1 cup shredded cheese, divided (I use colby jack or cheddar)
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 T. snipped fresh parsley
1 garlic clove, pressed
2 plum tomatoes, sliced
1 egg white, lightly beaten
3 cups chopped cooked chicken
4 slices chopped crispy bacon
1 cup shredded cheese, divided (I use colby jack or cheddar)
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 T. snipped fresh parsley
1 garlic clove, pressed
2 plum tomatoes, sliced
1 egg white, lightly beaten
Combine chicken, bacon, 3/4 cup cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, parsley, & garlic.
(You can make this the day before and keep refrigerated)
Scoop filling onto crescent rolls in desired shape (you can be creative: I plan to post a picture of how to make the wreath or you can also do a braid or ring). * Brush with egg white and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Bake 25-30 minuets at 375.
Great for a crowd!
Sweet Onion Mini Muffins
1-1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1-1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
2 eggs
1 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup melted butter
Combine first four ingredients in a bowl. In separate bowl beat last three ingredients until well blended. Stir into dry ingredients until moistened. Fill greased or paper-lined mini muffin pan. Bake at 400 for 10-12 min. Cool for 5 min. then remove from pan and place on wire rack.
These are delicious and hearty. I especially like them served with pasta. I served them for a crowd alongside chicken pot pie and it went over well.
