Boiled Egg Sandwich

My Pee Paw use to make this when I was a kid...and no one could ever make them as good as he could:-) I didn't put any lettuce on this one like he use to because I didn't feel like breaking out the whole head of lettuce for one little piece. If you like boiled eggs...you must try this if you haven't already. It's REALLY good....and easy to make...and chances are you already have everything you need in your kitchen.

Ingredients:
2 eggs
2 slices of bread
1 tablespoon of mayo
salt and pepper
lettuce if you want:-)


Boil and peel the eggs. Toast the bread. Spread mayo on both sides of toasted bread. Slice eggs onto bread...top with salt and pepper. Enjoy! Oh...add lettuce if you want...

Chicken and Sausage Kabobs

I know everyone knows how to make these...so this isn't some "Special" recipe or anything....but I LOVE kabobs...so I thought I would share:-)

Ingredients:
3 chicken breasts
1 sausage (I use beef sausage)
2 bell peppers
a few handfuls of mushrooms
tomatoes (I didn't have them for these kabobs)
Italian dressing
BBQ sauce

Directions:
Marinate the chicken in Italian dressing for at least a few hours. Cut all of the ingredients into bite size pieces...except the mushrooms and tomatoes...leave then whole. Put everything on skewers. Heat grill to medium heat. Cook kabobs for about 10 minutes or until everything is done. Joel like to brush BBQ sauce on his kabobs a few minutes before he pulls them off the grill. I serve them with rice and a salad. YUM!!! Great leftovers too!

Berry Cheesecake

This is delicious!!!

Pie Crust:

1/3 cup Milk
2/3 cup Vegetable Oil
2 1/4 cup Flour
1 tsp Salt

1. Measure the milk and vegetable and combine.
2. In a large bowl add the flour and salt. Pour the wet mixture over the dry and mix with a spoon.
3. Use this pie dough for any sweet or savory pie! Simply press in the pie pan rather than having to roll.

Cheesecake:

8 oz Cream Cheese
1/2 cup Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 eggs
2 cups Strawberries, sliced
1 cup Blueberries
1 TBS Light colored Jam (any flavor such as orange, apricot, peach, etc) I used pineapple
Pie Dough Stars, pie dough star cut outs, baked 15 minutes

preheat oven to 350 degrees

1. Press pie dough into a 9 inch pie pan. Reserve a small piece of pie dough, about 1/4 cup full and set aside for pie dough stars if using. Press dough up the side of the pie pan, and use your finger to press indentions to create a border. Place unbaked pie crust in the fridge.
2. Place the cream cheese and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat until creamy and fluffy. Add vanilla. With mixer (or hand mixer) on low speed, add eggs one at a time fully incorporating before adding the second egg.
3. Remove crust from the fridge and pour cheesecake batter into crust. Bake for 25- 30 minutes until firm and set in the center, and the crust is lightly tanned. Sprinkle cinnamon over the cake and crust immediately after removing from oven. Sprinkle over the stars (if using). Let cheesecake pie cool completely.
4. Rinse and pat dry the berries. Remove the stems from the strawberries and cut in quarters. Gently place the berries on top on the cheesecake.
5. Boil some water (in the microwave is easiest) and pour over the jam a tablespoon at a time until it has melted and is thick and syrupy. Use a pastry brush to brush the glaze over the berries. This will create the shiny, glossy look.
6. Place the stars on the pie up to three hours in advance to avoid them getting soft or stained. The pie can be made 24 hours in advance.
