1/2 tsp. salt
5 tablespoons butter

Whip eggs until thick and lemon colored. Add milk, flour, salt. Melt butter and put in bottom of 9x13 pan. Pour batter over melted butter and bake 15-20 minutes at 450 degrees.

There you go. Now go make some yummy food! Enjoy!!!

Sweet Potato Mash/ cilantro ranch dressing

• Level

  Easy

• Yield

  8 servings

Ingredients

• 3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
• 1/2 stick butter
• 1 banana, sliced
• 1 orange, zested and juiced
• 1 cup chicken stock
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg (I used cinnamon instead, and it was good)
• Salt and pepper

Directions

Boil potatoes until tender, drain and reserve. Return the pot to the stove top over medium heat. Add butter and bananas to the pot. Cook bananas 5 minutes and add the juice of 1 orange to the pot, reserve the zest. Allow the juice to cook out, 1 minute. Add potatoes to the pot and the stock and sugar. Mash potatoes, banana, stock and sugar together until well combined. Season with nutmeg, salt, pepper and orange zest, to your taste. Mash to combine spices and serve.

For Cilantro ranch dressing...

just mix ranch, cilantro, and fresh lime juice in a blender and press "liquefy."

If you guys were wondering about the marinade I put on the chicken... it is Mesquite with lime. I recommend the "Newman's" brand. I haven't seen it in any of the grocery stores I have been to in Utah, but it's the best.

Almost Salsa.

-3 cans of corn
-1 can of black beans
-1 can of white beans
-4-6 tomatoes
-a healthy amount of chopped up cilantro
-5-6 limes
-Italian dressing

Drain the corn, drain the beans, dice up the tomatoes, chop up the cilantro.

Throw it all into a bowl. Squeeze the heck outta the limes so you get as much juice as possible in the mix. Add a splash or three of Italian dressing (not too much, definitely no more than 1/2-3/4 of a cup). Mix it all together.

Eat.

Asian Chicken Salad/ Coconut Rice/ Pineapple Punch

Chinese Chicken Salad

4 chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
1 head cabbage, shredded
1 bunch green onions
2 pkgs. ramen noodles, crumbled up
2 T almonds*
2 T sesame seeds*
2 T sunflower seeds*

*I like to toast these in the oven before adding to the salad.

Dressing:
3/4 cup oil
2 T vinegar
2 T soy sauce
1/2 T pepper
3 T sugar
2 packets seasonings from ramen

Combine in large salad bowl chicken breasts, cabbage, green onions and ramen noodles. Combine almonds, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds in small pan and toast in oven at 400 degrees for 3 minutes. Cool nuts, then add to salad mixture. Make dressing by combining oil, vinegar, soysauce, pepper, sugar and ramen noodle seasonings. Add to salad and toss.

I also like to add other things to the salad, such as craisins and mandarin oranges. The salad is also very good with the ramen noodles cooked.

Coconut Rice

Okay... I don't really have a very specific recipe for this one, but this is what I do:

2 cans of coconut milk

2 cups of water (or just equal to the amount of coconut milk)

3-3 1/2 cups jasmine rice

add sugar to taste.

Heat the liquid and sugar in a large pot or saucepan (rice cookers also work quite well) until the sugar is dissolved. Taste the liquid to test the sweetness. Add the rice, and heat on high until it starts to boil. Turn it down to medium/low heat for about 30 minutes, or until the rice is soft and the liquid is absorbed.

Pineapple Punch

1 Quart pineapple sherbet ice cream

2 liter ginger ale soda

1 large can of pineapple juice

Put all the ice cream in a large punch bowl. Mix in the soda and pineapple juice however you like it! Very tasty.
