Oil-sessed!

Basically I find an oil I like and then I use it on everything. My latest obsessions are organic extra virgin coconut oil, lemon oil, garlic oil, and white truffle oil.

So what the heck am I doing with all these oils?

Let's start with the coconut oil-with this I am making cookies, pasta, rice dishes, tacos, and my husband even cooked hashbrowns with it. It even tastes amazing spread on toast. Try it!!!

Lemon oil-no it doesn't taste like pledge. This is great on asparagus or drizzled on some baked feta cheese.

Garlic oil-I use this on my pizza, pasta, bread, or veggies. Or any Italian food for that matter.

Truffle oil-OMG! This is the most delicious decadent stuff. I make mouthwatering fries with this, pizza, bruschetta and it even goes on my popcorn.

I recently acquired a bottle of basil oil, I betcha can't wait to see what that goes on???

Peach on Earth

We had our Office Christmas Party the other day and decided on a three ingredient no-fail recipe! It always delivers and rarely leaves leftovers. Peach-BBQ Lil' Smokies 2-14 oz package of Lil' Smokies cocktail sausages 1-16 oz jar of Peach Preserves 1-16 oz bottle of BBQ sauce Put all ingredients into a crockpot, stir and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours.  Serves 12-15, I would double for larger crowds.

Doritos Pumpkin cheese ball

1 Block cream cheese ½ C salsa (pace salsa works best) 2-3 C crushed nacho doritos Bell pepper stem Small round bowl Press and seal wrap Non-stick spray Mix with an electric mixer the cream cheese and salsa. I mix it well and until it is quite creamy/fluffy. Place a piece of press and seal over a small bowl and spray with nonstick spray. Put in cream cheese and salsa mixture and wrap up. Let chill overnight or at least 2 hours. When ready to serve unwrap ball and roll in crushed doritos and top with a bell pepper stem. I like to serve it with blue tortilla chips for Halloween, this is also great for Thanksgiving.
