Pizza Factory Breadstick Twists

This recipe is so easy and sooo good! They taste amazingly similar to the breadsticks at The Pizza Factory in Utah.

1½ cups warm water

2 Tbsp. sugar

1 Tbsp. yeast

Let that sit for 5 minutes. Then add:

3½ cups flour

1 tsp Salt

Mix until smooth then let raise for 10 minutes. Roll out dough into a large square on a floured surface. Brush with melted (real) butter mixed with garlic and then sprinkle with kosher salt. Fold in half and cut into 1 inch strips. Twist and place on a cooking sheet. Let sit for 15 to 20 minutes to raise. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately after baking, brush with more garlic butter and sprinkle with kosher salt and grated parmesan cheese. Serve with marinara, alfredo sauce, or ranch for dipping.

*Dough also makes a great pizza dough, just roll out into a large circle, add your favorite toppings, and bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes.

Creamy Tortilla Soup!

1 Chicken Breast - raw & diced into small chuncks (I seriously always use Kirkland canned chicken, drained. It's much easier, faster, and I think tastier).

1 can of chicken broth
1 can drained pinto beans
1 can of cream of chicken soup
2 Tbls. Taco seasoning
2 Tbls. Chopped fresh cilantro

Mix above in a large heavy pan. Bring to a boil, simmer 15 minutes.

1 cup (+ extra for serving) of light sour cream
Tortilla chips
Cheese

Take 1 cup of liquid from above and mix with 1 cup of sour cream. Add back to pan.

Serve soup with tortilla chips/shredded cheese/chopped cilantro and sour cream.

Old Fashioned Cake-Doughnuts

2 large eggs
1 cup (8 ounces) buttermilk
1 cup (7 ounces) granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon lemon oil or 1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 cup (4 ounces) King Arthur White Whole Wheat Flour
3 1/2 cups (14 7/8 ounces) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 quarts (3 pounds) lard, shortening or vegetable oil

While you prepare the dough, begin heating the lard (best flavor), shortening (less saturated fat but also less flavor), or vegetable oil (probably the healthiest alternative but if you're doing these for flavor, this is not the choice to make). An 8-quart stock pot is an appropriate size cooking container.

You want the fat to reach somewhere between 365°F and 375°F before you begin to cook. It's best to have a thermometer that you can clip onto the side of your pot so you can monitor the temperature. And make temperature changes slowly. Unlike water, it takes time for the fat to respond to increased or decreased heat. It's easy, if you're too exuberant, to have the temperature begin to soar up to the smoke point. And it doesn't like to give up its heat easily.

Beat together the eggs, buttermilk, sugar and lemon oil or zest until light. In a separate bowl, blend together the dry ingredients. Melt the butter but make sure it's not excessively hot. Quickly blend the dry ingredients with the wet and stir in the melted butter. The resulting dough will be quite soft, but if you keep surfaces well sprinkled with flour, you can manage it. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and knead four or five times to make it cohesive (a bench knife helps here). Then, with a well-floured rolling pin, roll the dough out until it's about 1/2-inch thick. With a doughnut cutter dipped in flour (each time you cut), cut out doughnuts. Save the "holes" or re-roll them with leftover dough. Try to handle the dough as little as possible.

When the fat is at the appropriate temperature, lower three or four doughnuts into it. A slotted spoon is useful here. They will initially sink to the bottom of the pot but will rise shortly. Give them a minute or so on one side, then flip them over and give them another minute. Flip them a third time and cook for another 30 seconds. Drain on paper towels (or brown paper grocery bags). Yield: 1 1/2 to 2 dozen doughnuts, depending on the size of your cutter.

Oatmeal Pancakes!

2 cups regular oats
2 cups buttermilk
2 eggs
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 cup flour
2 TBS sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cinnamon (i do a little more)
1/4 tsp. salt

These are so good and hearty! Love them with the Magleby's syrup, posted earlier!

Cilantro Lime Halibut!

It is really easy to make and doesn't taste fishy AT ALL. It is just fresh, flaky, and fantastic! Plus, it is low fat and healthy too!

2 six ounce fresh halibut filets
salt and pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, crushed
½ cup white wine or chicken stock
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
juice of 1 lime
1 teaspoon lime zest
2 tablespoons olive oil

Season halibut with salt and pepper one hour before cooking. Place in refrigerator.

Lightly oil a non-stick pan with canola or vegetable oil. Over high heat, sear each side of the halibut filets for five seconds each. Searing the filets will cook a fine layer on the outside of the fish so that it will not stick to the barbecue. Because of the moistness and flakiness of halibut, this will prevent the halibut from sticking and falling through the grates of your barbecue grill. This is a great tip when barbecuing all types of fish, but works especially well with halibut.

Remove halibut from pan and turn heat down to medium. Add olive oil and garlic to pan and cook for 2 minutes. Add wine or chicken stock, cilantro, lime juice , lime zest and olive oil to the sauté pan and heat until hot but not boiling.

Remove sauce from heat and baste fish on both sides. Cook on barbecue grill for 3 minutes per side, basting constantly while cooking. Serve immediately.

This little girl loves her some Corn on the Cob!

Hawaiian Beef Teryiaki

1 can pineapple chunks with juice (15 oz.)
1 c. soy sauce
3/4 c. brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. minced ginger
1 Lb. beef sirloin, cut in 1 inch cubes

Mix together all ingredients, excluding beef. Set aside about 1/2 c. of the sauce, cover and refrigerate. Add beef to remaining sauce and marinate, covered and refrigerated overnight (better yet, seal the marinade and beef in a large Ziploc bag and place in a bowl, then place in the fridge-- either way works). Thread beef onto skewers. Discard leftover marinade. Broil or grill about 8-10 minutes, turning once, until beef is cooked. Place beef in a large bowl, pour remaining sauce over the cooked beef and stir until well covered. Serve with rice (or grilled fresh pineapple). We also had corn on the cob! So amazing!

We don't have a grill, so I just Broiled both the meat and the Pineapple! (the pic of the pineapple is not my own!) And they both turned out so wonderful! Spencer said it was his favorite meal so far!

And of course, Cupcakes for dessert! Emma wanted Orange frosting, so that is what she got!

Roasted Rotisserie Chicken

Sometimes you just have to let someone else do the cooking for you!
Tonight is the adult session of our Stake Conference and Spencer had to go to the Priesthood session first... So in the state of panic to find something to eat quickly and that wasn't forzen, I ran to the grocery store and picked up one of these Roasted Rotisserie Chicken! My mom loves them , but we have never tried it!
It isn't frozen, they are fresh and hot when you pick them up! I got this a a store called Meijer out here in Michigan, but you can get them at Walmart too, or probably any grocery store! They are in the front of the store, by the bakery and fresh meat section!
They really are good and all you have to do is have a salad and dessert to go with! Spencer just took parts of it with him in a tupperware container!
Yeah...Dinner is done! and Tommorrow we can start cooking again!

Soft Garlic Knots

Soft Garlic Knots
for the dough:
3 cups bread flour
1 tbsp. sugar
2 tsp. instant yeast
1 ¼ tsp. salt
2 tbsp. olive oil
¼ cup milk
1 cup + 2 tbsp. lukewarm water

For the glaze:
2 cloves garlic
3 tbsp. melted butter
1 tsp. herbes de provence (or Italian seasoning)

Directions:
To make the dough, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment combine the dry ingredients. Add the olive oil, milk and water. Mix until ingredients have formed a dough. Switch to the dough hook and knead on low speed until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, turn once to coat, and cover with plastic wrap. Allow to rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk.

Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 10 inch long rope and tie into a knot. Take the end lying underneath the knot and bring it over the top, tucking it into the center. Take the end lying over the knot and tuck it underneath and into the center. Transfer shaped rolls to a baking stone, or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise for 45 minutes, until puffy.

To make the glaze, finely mince the garlic or press it through a garlic press. Mix with the melted butter and Italian seasoning.

Preheat the oven to 350° F. Brush the glaze onto the shaped rolls. Bake until set and lightly browned, about 15-18 minutes.
