Step 4: Place the cookie face-down in the little baggie you just made for it:



Step 5: Bring the top flap down and secure it with a pretty sticker of some sort:


Step 6: Flip it over and viola! It is ready for gift giving by itself or put it with others in an attractive basket:

FNCCC: Week 12

My Wordless Wednesday at 5 Minutes for Mom is going to be more like Wordful Wednesday on SevEn cLoWn CirCus:-).

I am playing along with I Blame My Mother on The Food Network Chefs Cooking Challenge (FNCCC). This week the chef of choice is Danny Boome. I am doing his Mummy Boome's Traditional Shepherds Pie . I posted the recipe on Monday and here is what it looked like:

Isn't she pretty?


The Verdict: It was delicious! A crowd pleaser! Everyone loved it. The only critique we would have would be less potatoes. We could have done without half. That would lower the cost and the fat.

Another busy week ahead of me. I have my Iron Cupcake Challenge, a PTO meeting, volunteering twice, a stress test and an evening at a comedy club. Thank goodness for good old Pick N Save. They have ground chuck on sale for $1.88/lb. (normally $2.93/lb.) and it's a good thing because...

Amongst all this, I am still playing along with I Blame My Mother on The Food Network Chefs Cooking Challenge (FNCCC). This week the chef of choice is Danny Boome. I am making his Mummy Boome's Traditional Shepherds Pie . Check out the recipebelow!

Here is everything that I am serving this week:

Monday: Chicken and Pasta (ICM tonight)

Tuesday: Mummy Boome's Traditional Shepherds Pie (PTO)(Come back on Wednesday for a picture and a review.)

Wednesday: Sweet and Sour Pork (Hair Cut)

Thursday: Leftovers (Volunteering and Stress Test)

Friday: Eat Out (Volunteering at School and Comedy Club)

Mummy Boome's Traditional Shepherds Pie
Ingredients:
1 Tbs butter
1 Tbs olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 Tbs tomato paste
2 lbs lean ground beef or lamb
2 Tbs Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup beef stock
1 1/2 cups garden peas
4 lbs Yukon gold potatoes, peeled, quartered
4 Tbs butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated mature white Cheddar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions:
1. Preheat oven at 400 degrees F.

2. Add butter and oil to a large skillet on medium heat. Saute onions, carrots, celery and garlic until tender for about 7 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Once the vegetables have softened and start to brown a little add the tomato paste and mix evenly. Add the ground beef and cook until beef is no longer pink about 10 minutes. Add the Worcestershire sauce and beef stock. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook and simmer for another 10 minutes. Mix in peas. Transfer mixture to an oven-proof baking dish and spread evenly. Place potato on top of ground beef mixture and spread out evenly, once the top surface has been covered, rake through with a fork so that there are peaks that will brown nicely. Place the dish into the preheated oven and cook until browned about 20 minutes. Spoon out the shepherd's pie and serve.

3. Fill a large saucepan with cold water and a tablespoon of salt. Add potatoes to the water and bring to a boil. Let potatoes cook until soft about 20 minutes. Once the potatoes are at a desired density, drain the potatoes and place them back into the saucepan for mashing. Add butter and cream and begin to mash potatoes into a semi smooth consistency. Once at desired texture add cheese and mix well. Season with salt and pepper.

I can't do anything about the the nutrition however, I can do something about the price. Here are the original costs:

Menu Cost: $50.80
Menu Serving Cost: $4.23

Now, take away the price of the turkey and potatoes that I got for free and viola:

Menu Cost: $31.35 (on sale)
Menu Serving Cost: $2.61 (on sale)

You can even get it down to $25 with coupons (which are everywhere this time of year) for the greens beans, soup, stuffing and cranberry sauce. That's right...$25 for Thanksgiving for 12. You can't beat that with a stick!

FNCCC: Week 11

My Wordless Wednesday at 5 Minutes for Mom is going to be more like Wordful Wednesday on SevEn cLoWn CirCus:-).

I am playing along with I Blame My Mother on The Food Network Chefs Cooking Challenge (FNCCC). This week the chef of choice is Daisy Martinez. I am doing her Chicken in Garlic Sauce . I posted the recipe on Monday and here is what it looked like:


The verdict: We really liked the flavors of this dish. The garlic gets sweet and the thyme is a perfect compliment to that. The only thing we didn't like is that is wasn't really a sauce and the chicken was dry.

Chicken in Garlic Sauce

Check me out over at At Work, At Play or At Home All Day talking about girlie stuff:-)

Here, I am doing more menu planning with I'm an Organizing Junkie and finding more deals at Pick N Save for $5 Dinners .

Oh my gosh!! I am swamped this week!! I have a state funding panel discussion, a girl scout service meeting, voluteering twice, doctor appointment and a field trip. I am not going to have a moment to rest let alone cook. And, I still have Thanksgiving to plan!

Thank goodness for Pick N Save!! They have the best meal deal ever!! If you buy a ham (@ $1.99/lb.!) you get, a 10 lb turkey for FREE!! AND, they are even springing for breakfast. You also get a dozen eggs and a 12 oz. package of breakfast sausage!! Not to mention, that potatoes are on sale (buy one 5lb., get one free). So, half of my Thanksgiving shopping is done!! Awesome!!

Amongst all this, I am still playing along with I Blame My Mother on The Food Network Chefs Cooking Challenge (FNCCC). This week the chef of choice is Daisy Martinez. I am making her . Chicken in Garlic Sauce. Come back on Wednesday when I post a picture and our review. Check out the recipebelow!

Here is everything that I am serving this week:

Monday: Semi-Homemade Spaghetti

Tuesday: Chicken in Garlic Sauce (State Funding and Girl Scout Meeting)

Wednesday: Pork Chops and Potatoes (Volunteering and Doctor Appointment)

Thursday: Leftovers (Field Trip)

Friday: Eat Out (Volunteering at School)

Chicken in Garlic Sauce - Pollo al Ajillo

Ingredients:
2 Chicken Breast
Fine sea or kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/8 cup canola oil
5 cloves garlic, sliced
1 tsp chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/4 cup dry sherry
1/4 cup chicken broth, homemade or canned

Directions:
1. Wash the chicken thighs and pat them dry with paper towels. Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add as many of the chicken thighs, skin side down, as will fit without touching.

2. Cook until the skin is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Flip the chicken pieces and cook until the other side is golden brown, about 5 minutes more.

3. Remove the pan from the heat and spoon off all but about 2 tablespoons of the fat, leaving all the lovely brown bits behind. Return the pan to low heat, stir in the garlic and thyme and cook until the garlic starts to turn golden, about 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the sherry, increase the heat to medium and bring to a boil. Let it boil a minute or 2, then return the chicken to the pan skin side up. Reduce the heat to low, pour in the chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Cover the pan tightly and cook 20 minutes. Flip the chicken pieces (or rotate them top to bottom if using a smaller pan) and cook until the chicken is very tender, about 20 minutes. Serve hot.

4. Note: If you like a mix of white and dark meat, substitute a 4-pound chicken cut into 10 pieces. Let the thighs, drumsticks, and wings cook in the sauce for 15 minutes before adding the browned breast pieces. If you'd like to use all white meat, cut the breasts in half crosswise, brown them as described above, but let the sauce cook down 10 to 15 minutes before adding the chicken breasts.

Oilless Turkey Fryer

Has anyone ever heard of an oilless turkey fryer??? (Can you still call it a fryer if the food isn't submerged in oil?)

Apparently, the oilless turkey fryer uses infrared technology to cook without oil?? Now, it still uses propane so, you aren't saving fuel but, I can see where this would save TONS of fat!

Why not just use an oven?? Well, the claim is that you can cook a 12 lb. turkey in an hour and fifty minutes without preheating?? So, you save time and oven space on a busy holiday afternoon? Sign me up:-)

Has anyone had experience with this oilless turkey fryer??? I would love to hear about it.

Growing Daisies

My gardening today consists of sowing some Daisies...Girl Scout Daisies:-)

We had our most recent meeting on Tuesday. We were working on the Spring Green patch about consideration and caring. As a part of the lesson, we had a tea party. Check out the table:


I even folded the napkins like flowers:


How does this all fold into being considerate and caring? Well, setting a beautiful table is showing your guests that you care. Table manners is considerate and so is saying thank-you. That is why we did daisy thank-you notes for a craft. Each parent received a lovely note created by their child at the end of the meeting.

In addition to the party and the craft, we had the girls dress up in princess costumes. The girls loved it. I even got 129 thumbs up:-) How awesome is that?
