Mozzarella stuffed meatballs

Bacon brussels sprouts. Cut one pack of bacon into lardons, cook bacon, remove the bacon, pour out just a little bacon grease but leave some in the pan, add trimmed and halved/quartered brussels sprouts with some salt, pepper, maybe a little garlic powder, cook until al dente-ish, add the bacon back, mix, serve or transfer to crockpot.

Edit: Finish with a little squirt of lemon juice and grated parm.

Add some balsamic glaze on top when you serve it, maybe a little fresh parm. Amazing.

I completely forgot the crucial finishing steps of lemon juice and parm. My family would be devastated. Fixed!

Probably asian stir fry noodles. Easy to make a large batch. The hardest part is preparing and cooking the chicken. The rest is just dumping everything into a wok and mixing it.

I unfortunately don’t have exact measurements because I just wing it at home until it tastes right. But the gist is:

  • Cut chicken thighs into thin strips or chunks and stir fry with garlic, onions, and whatever spices you want.

  • Add a variety of veggies (i.e. carrots, broccoli, water chesnuts, string beans, etc.). I just use a pack of frozen mixed veggies.

  • Mix a couple of tbsp of oyster sauce, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 1 tbsp kecap manis if you want a hint of sweetness.

  • Make a hole in the center of the wok and pour the mixed sauces in the middle. Add enough water to make everything look like a chunky soup. Then stir in the meat and veggies. Add more oyster sauce if it gets too diluted, or add more water if it’s too salty.

  • Dump a pack of chow mein noodles and mix until it absorbs the liquid and it becomes saucy noodles. Serve with a soft boiled egg.

If you want something more structured, just search for a chop suey recipe and add chow mein noodles.

  • Pulled pork
  • Deviled eggs
  • Mashed potatoes (not just potatoes and salt)

Spicy red lentil dip. I just make a dal with less water lol.

Chicken parm, or its fried wings with homemade sauces.

The parm is literally just, crack two eggs. Take two chicken breasts or whatever and cut them in half or into strips.

Take a bowl of plain, yes plain panko bread crumbs. Take shredded parmesan like the shit you find in the green shaker bottles you keep in the fridge. Shredded oregano, Mixed Italian seasoning, any other separate Italian seasonings you want. Also could add some red pepper flakes for a small kick.

Skin:

1 - 2 cups of panko

1 - 1/12 cup of parmesan

1 tbsp of Oregano and other seasonings mixed

Crack 2 eggs in a bowl. Mix some garlic salt in to strengthen the flavor.

Set aside a bowl of plain flower

Dredge chicken in flower, dredge in eggs, dredge in flower than eggs again

Coat in Panko throughly

Refrigerate for at least an hour or more

Either deep fry until the internal temperature is 165 (Be careful with heat distribution in oil. Too hot will rip skin off)

Or Air fryer style

Depending on your Air Fryer 350 - 375 degrees Adjust time accordingly, flip chicken in the middle of cooking and coat with marinara or desired sauce.

Serve with noodles, boom. Donezo, and it's delicious.

Also if any other would be chef's have ways to improve that be my guest :)

Rolo pretzel turtles for me.

Lay out some mini pretzel twists on a baking sheet with parchment paper and top each with a Rolo candy.

Put in a low oven for maybe 6-10 minutes, until the Rolos are soft but not melted.

Then quickly press a pecan on top of each one right when they come out, then let cool.

I've also done it with animal crackers and almonds.

Smoked deviled eggs: throw peeled hard-boiled eggs on the grill or smoker for an hour or so on low indirect heat. The filling is similar to regular deviled eggs, but you swap yellow mustard with Dijon, relish with diced jalapenos, and mix in a couple teaspoons of BBQ rub. Garnish with a jalapeno slice. The last couple times I made them for a potluck I didn't get to have any because they were already gone by the time I made it to that point in the line.

For dips, I won a dip competition at work with this jalapeno ranch recipe.

I’ve never taken food to a potluck before, but it would probably be spaghetti.

[–] marzhall@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Pepperoni bread. The secret is I use cooper sharp cheese, as well as a mix of fun spices including some za'tar and Italian sausage seasoning in the oil it bakes in.

BBQ Ribs (in the oven)

Ingredients: 1 rack St Louis style ribs 2 tbsp butter Rib dry rub (most anything will do, but sweet or mesquite works best) Sweet BBQ sauce (Sweet Baby Rays)

Steps: Preheat oven to 275 Rinse ribs in sink, pat dry and cut into 2 equal halves. Apply dry rub liberally, but shake off excess dry rub. Wrap in tin foil and place 1 tbsp butter directly on ribs. Bake at 275 for 3 hours. Remove ribs from oven and remove tin foil. Slather ribs in bbq sauce. Broil in oven for 90 seconds a side. Cut each rib into individual servings.

You’ll always leave the party with an empty dish.
