Fish Tacos by Ashley

Jeremy and I love Fish Tacos. It is a good thing because they are HUGE in Austin, so are breakfast tacos, but that is for another post. Anyway, these were easy and yummy. They weren't as good as our favorite at Berryhill, but they are still pretty good.
*I got this recipe from a friend (I say friend even though I have never met her. We know her husband from college, but I just know I like her), she does a foodie friday on her blog and I pretty much have stolen all of them, and will post them, but I we don't post anything we haven't made or tried yet.

Ingredients:
flour tortillas
shredded cheese
slaw (cabbage, olive oil, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, mayo, honey mustard dressing)
fish batter mix
fish

Preparation:
1. Thaw your fish. I used individually sealed Tilapia.
2. Make your slaw: you could use any slaw and it would be good, but this one is simple and good. This is per 1 cup of slaw. I made 4 cups, because I plan on eating it with a couple of other meals (ex. slaw turkey dogs).
Slaw: 1 Tbs mayo and honey mustard dressing. 1/2 tsp salt, pepper, sugar. Tbs olive oil and whisk. Add cabbage and let sit in fridge for a little while.
3. Heat your skillet to medium with vegetable or canola oil. You can dip your fish in milk then the batter, but my fish was already wet, so I just dipped it right in the batter. It only takes a few minutes. When finished place on a paper towel to absorb extra oil.
4. You can use whatever items on your fish taco you want. We did cheese, slaw and fish.

*I wasn't sure if my 2yo would like them, so I made him a cheese quesadilla. He ended up eating the fish. He loved it.
*You don't have to batter your fish. You could bake or grill it with the right seasoning and it would be good also.

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.

Yummy Corn Casserole By: Lindsey

Hey ladies! Well, just wanted to let you in on a GREAT recipe that my mother-in-law shared with me. EVERYTIME I make it people go on and on about how much they love it. The other day, at a neighborhood block party(where I knew no one) someone called me the corn girl and asked everyone to give me a round of applause for the corn casserole that I made(and they did). Ha! So, definitely try this one. You will LOVE it! 1 8oz. cream cheese 1 can creamed corn 1 can whole kernel corn(drained) 1 box of jiffy corn bread mix 1 stick of butter Mix all the ingredients together(I would highly recommend using a mixer...not by hand). Spray a small pyrex dish(unless you double the recipe, then use a 9x13). Pour the mixture into the dish. Bake on 400 for 45 min-1 hour. Take out when it is a little brown.

Chicken Casserole By: Lindsey

This recipe is so common I am not even sure if I should post it. However, if you do not have a recipe for this or have never had it you have GOT to try it. Such a Southern recipe. Grew up having it and everyone in college made it. Ha! 3 sleeves Ritz Crackers 4 or 5 boneless chicken breast 1 can cream of mushroom soup 1 can cream of chicken soup 8 oz sour cream 1 stick butter Melt 1/2 stick butter in 9x13 dish. Crush 1 1/2 sleeves of crackers and pour into butter. Stir and spread over bottom of dish. Shred COOKED chicken(boil it to cook it) and layer over crackers. Mix sour cream and both soups together and pour over chicken. Melt 1/2 stick of butter in a mixing bowl. Crush remaining crackers and add to butter. Stir until mixed well then add to top of casserole. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
