Cole Slaw

I'm sure you all have made a salad or a slaw similar to this but I found this one and it was so easy and so good!!  It's one of Paula Deen's receipes so you know it's good and probably fattening.   We had it with Chicken Pot Pie one night and then with Lasagna and it was great with both.  Donna
 
Cole Slaw
 
2 bags of Ramen Noodle soup in Oriental
3/4  stick butter
1/4 cup slivered almonds
2 bags of traditional cole slaw (pre-packaged)
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
chopped green onion, for garnish
 
Dressing Mix
 
3/4 cup conola oil
1/2 cup brown sugar (light, packed)
1/4 cup apple cider vineger
1 ramen noodle seasoning packet (oriental)
 
Put ramen noodles in a bag and crush them with rolling pin while melting butter in large skillet over low/medium heat.  Add crushed noodles and slivered almonds to the skillet and saute, stirring occasionally (keep temp. at low/medium heat). Meanwhile whisk together all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl.  Place slaw into bowl and toss with the noodles and almonds and sunflower seeds.  Pour dressing over salad and toss to coat.  Garnish with green onions. 
 
I would not toss this all together until you are ready to serve.

Bulldog Brittle

Apparently this recipe has been around for a long time but until this past Christmas I have never eaten it----loved, loved, loved it!! As always my favorite recipe's are those that are delicious and easy, so here's another one. Donna Bulldog Brittle 8 whole graham crackers 1 cup of chopped pecans 1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter 1/2 cup sugar This is so good and so inexpensive to make that you will probably want to double the recipe. Break crackers into fourths. Place on foiled lined cookie sheet pan, leaving space between crackers. Sprinkle chopped pecans over top of crackers. Melt margarine and butter in boiler. Add sugar, bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil exactly 2 minutes, pour over pecans and crackers. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes. DO NOT BROWN. Let cool and break into pieces.

A Littel Tidbit by Ashley

Ok, so this isn't a recipe, but something tells me you will all want to know.  I have been meaning to tell my Mom, Lindsey, and Kimberly but keep forgetting. If someone told me I could only have two things in my make-up bag, it would probably be eyeliner and mascara.  I found a new mascara that I love.  This is coming from someone who's favorite was $27 dollar a tube Lancome mascara.  It is lashblast from Cover Girl.  O magazine rated it #1 best mascara of this year! I love it!! Just thought I would share!

Oh My!!  We had this tonight for dinner.  All of the boys ate it, including Gray who is 1 and Sam who usually only eats the bread for dinner.  I loved it and it was so easy!  Enjoy!!!   Ingredients:   1 package of penne pasta (I used whole grain) 1/2 t. rosemary 2 packages of sliced pepperoni , halved ( I used 1 package and it seemed to be plenty) 1/4 c. pepperocini (omit if too spicy for kids, but it wasn't really spicy with it.  I will probably use more than 1/4 next time) 1 jar roasted red bell pepper, drained and chopped 3 1/2 c. boiling water 1/2 c. whipping cream (I used milk) 1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese   Directions:   In a large pot, layer pasta, rosemary, pepperoni, pepperocini, and roasted red pepper.   Add water and bring to a boil.   Reduce heat, cover, and let simmer until pasta is tender.   Add cream and cheese.  Toss to coat.
