Recipes..... by Vicky P.
Mock Rumaki
(Bacon wrapped water chestnuts)
1 - 8 oz can of whole Water Chestnuts
(There are about 18 – 20 water chestnuts per can. I counted each can I used.)
½ pound of bacon sliced in half or thirds. (Sam’s has 10 lb boxes for $28)
¼ cup Mayonnaise
¼ cup Heinz Chili Sauce
½ cup brown sugar
Mustard (I added to my taste. Sometimes I’ll add splash of pineapple juice, depending on my mood.)
Heat oven:To 350 to 375 degrees ( depending on how oven bakes).
Wrap:Each individual water chestnut in the slice of cut bacon. Secure with toothpick or place seam side down in the baking dish.
Bake:Until the bacon is browned and cooked through.(About 30 minutes.) Drain off grease once removed from oven.
Mix:Remaining ingredients in a bowl thoroughly. Pour over the Water Chestnuts and bake for another 30 minutes. (The sauce will look like
baked beans when done). Remove and serve.
Ginger Chicken Salad
1 whole cooked Chicken (about 4 cups)(I use the Rotisserie chickens from Sam’s. I’m Lazy.)
½ - 1 cup Hellman’s Mayonnaise
½ - 1 cup Sour Cream
1 tsp of ground ginger (I use the already prepared ginger from the produce section)
1 tablespoon of Kikkoman’s Soy Sauce
2 stalks of celery chopped fine
1 cup of seedless grapes halved or apple chunks (I like the color of the grapes)
½ to 1 cup of chopped Pecans
Pick all the chicken off the bones. (It really isn’t good chicken without the dark meat.)
Add the celery grapes and pecans.
Mix the mayonnaise, sour cream, ginger and Soy sauce. Adjust the flavors to your taste. Some people add a little sugar, but I don’t like it that way.
Once it tastes good to you, pour over the chicken mixture and thoroughly toss with food gloves on. Nothing works better than your fingers
and hands! Chill a couple of hours. Serve on sandwich breads or alone. Enjoy!
Pimento Cheese
Shred:
8 oz each Seriously Sharp Cheddar Cheese (Walmart carries Cabot’s brand)
Extra Sharp Cheddar
Sharp Cheddar
(I usually use 2 extra sharp/1 seriously sharp because I like the white cheeses. Pimento makes it turn the color I like.)
Add:2-3 jars diced pimentos (Jennifer chops up fire roasted peppers & uses them)
3 oz minced Jalapeno (more or less according to taste)Splash of the Jalapeno vinegar from the jar
Mayonnaise enough to moisten (start with ¼ cup and add as needed), Paprika to taste, Pepper to taste,Celery salt to taste
Garlic salt to taste(I’m light on the salts if I add them. Cheese has a lot of sodium)
Mix everything together. Use food gloves and then squish everything in through your fingers. (The food processor takes away the texture I like.)
Refrigerate for a couple of hours if you can wait. Then serve on crackers, breads or plain out of the bowl. Enjoy!
Please remember to wear your name badges
Meeting adjourned 8:40pm pm
Next meeting: July 26th, 6:30pm
