Pampers easy up review

upside down pizza

                         *This is an old posting from a long time ago I just never publish.*

 So the other day me and James were watching Table for 12 and the mom was making something called Upside down pizza and James said "hey that looks good". So me being a good mommy and wife I google it and made it. It was actually pretty easy to make and now I'm going to share it with you.

1 lb ground beef
1 small onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
1 medium green bell pepper, coarsely chopped (1 cup)
2 jars (14 oz each) pizza sauce
1 package (6 oz) diced pepperoni
2 cups Original Bisquick® mix
1 cup milk
2 eggs
1 1/2cups shredded pizza cheese blend (6 oz)




1. Heat oven to 350°F. In 12-inch skillet, cook beef, onion and bell pepper over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is thoroughly cooked; drain.

2. Stir in pizza sauce, pepperoni and olives; heat until hot. Spoon into ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish.

3. In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix, milk and eggs until blended. Pour evenly over pepperoni mixture.

4. Bake uncovered about 25 minutes or until crust is light brown. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake uncovered about 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.

Finished project:

Parental Guidance

I saw Parental Guidance the other day and it was way funny and I would so love to see it again. It had a great cast of actors and a funny story line. 10 stars all the way.
The only complaint I have is you can tell Billy Crystal had have way to much botox.

Artie and Diane agree to look after their three grandkids when their type-A helicopter parents need to leave town for work. Problems arise when the kids' 21st-century behaviors collide with Artie and Diane's old-school methods.

2. Separate dough into individual biscuits; Set one aside. Roll out each remaining biscuit into 7-inch circles on a lightly floured surface. Top half of each circle evenly with cheese, mushrooms, pepperoni and sauce, leaving 1/2 inch border. Fold dough over filling to form half moon shape; crimp edges closed with fork. Brush tops with egg.

3.Split remaining biscuit horizontally and cut each half into eight 1/4 inch strips. For each sandwich, roll two strips of dough into spirals to create eyes. Divide remaining twos strips dough into seven pieces to create noses. Arrange eyes along straight edge of each sandwich; place nose between eyes. Brush eyes and nose with egg. Place on prepared baking sheet.

4.Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand 3 to 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with additional pizza sauce.

Fish and Chips

Starting with the "chips". Its actually sweet potato fries and they are good I can't stop munching on them while the fish cooks.
1 - 1 1/2 lb sweet potatoes
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp cinnamon
I also put a little brown sugar on it as well.


Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil (preferably the easy release kind).

Peal the sweet potatoes. Cut into strips that are about 1/2 inch wide on each side.

Place the sweet potatoes into a seal able plastic bag. Add oil, salt, paprika and cinnamon. Seal the bag and shake well to thoroughly coat the fries. Spread the potatoes out onto the baking sheet in a single layer.

Cook for 30 minutes, turning every 10 minutes. Transfer immediately to a paper towel lined plate and serve warm.

DJANGO UNCHAINED

Sunday I was given to honor to see DJANGO UNCHAINED. I first have to say this is not my type of movie at all but my husbands type. It had lots of blood and violence in it but I actually have to say that it wasn't that bad of a movie. I don't really want to give to much a way about this movie so go see it.

The "D" is Silent. Payback Won't Be.-DjangoStoryline:Django (Jamie Foxx) is a slave living in the Deep South after having been separated from his wife Broomhilda (Kerry Washington). When Django is held for a slave auction, Dr. King Schultz (Christoph Waltz), a German bounty hunter who uses his former profession as a dentist as a cover, frees Django from his vicious masters, the Speck brothers (James Remar and James Russo), and gives him the option of helping him hunt down and kill the Brittle Brothers, a ruthless gang of killers whom only Django has seen. In return, Schultz will free Django from slavery completely and help find and rescue Broomhilda from the brutal but charming Francophile Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio), who owns Candyland, a plantation where male slaves are trained to fight for sport and female slaves are forced into prostitution. Django agrees, and the two go after Candie and the Brittle gang.

Peanut Butter Granola Bars

Peanut Butter Granola Bars

1 egg white
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
1/3 cup coconut sugar
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted*
2 cups old fashioned oats
1/3 cup miniature chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spray an 8x8 baking pan and set aside.

Begin melting your stick of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. 

While the butter is melting, using a hand beater, beat the egg white until frothy.  Stir in the peanut butter, coconut sugar, and honey.  Add the melted butter and oats.  Stir to combine, then add the chocolate chips.  You want to make sure the butter isn't too hot still to melt the chocolate.

Spread mixture into the prepared pan pressing lightly to form an even layer.  Bake until the edge of the mixture begins to brown, about 15 minutes.  Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 1 hour.  Cut into squares, serve, and enjoy!

Home Made Arby Sauce

Although the beef sandwiches from Arby's would be very hard to duplicate since they are made from specially processed beef hunks, thinly sliced, this fast food chain's barbecue sauce can be cloned easily. Now you can whip up this slightly tangy sauce to put on your own homemade sandwich creations, even barbecued ribs or chicken.

Servings: 1 cup
Ingredients
1 cup ketchup
2 teaspoons water
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco pepper sauce

funnel cake :)

Ingredients:

1 egg
2/3 cup milk
2 tbsp. sugar
1 1/4 cup flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder




Directions:



1. In a deep skillet, heat about two cups of oil over medium-high heat until hot. Test the temperature by dropping a pinch of flour into the hot oil. If it sizzles right away without smoking, it's perfect.

2. Beat egg and milk. Mix all other ingredients in a separate bowl and slowly add to the egg mixture, beating until smooth.

3. Using a funnel, drop into hot oil working from center outwards in a web pattern. (You can use a gallon sized freezer bag instead of a funnel by pouring the batter into the bag, snipping off a small corner of it, and squeezing the batter into the oil.)

4. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, remove from the oil when golden brown and crispy.

5. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.
