Strawberry Cheesecake Salad

Wow, this strawberry cheesecake salad is good. It’s sort of like a salad but you’ll want this for dessert… so it is a dessert salad!

I made this using lighter ingredients than the original recipe. It would be perfect for a picnic or family get-together. It’s like having a banana split… Oh! Great idea! Maybe add a little drizzle of chocolate syrup and top it with a maraschino cherry!

Strawberry Cheesecake Salad

It’s Berry Delicious!

I am going to make this salad again soon. I might try a few variations, like using blueberries and blueberry yogurt… or even chocolate chips and chocolate pudding! The possibilities are endless. But this strawberry cheesecake salad is great just as it is. It is absolutely perfect with in-season ripe strawberries.

Chili Dog Sauce

This is my go-to hot dog chili dog sauce. I let it slow cook for a while to get good and tender. And I also make a huge batch and freeze some for later. I have to have sauce on my dogs.

This chili dog sauce is also outstanding over burgers, topped with cheese and chopped onion.

Chili Dog Sauce

A Great Cookbook Find

I found this in The Real Chili Cookbook: America’s 100 All-Time Favorite Recipes. I found a copy at the Exit 76 Antique Mall for $3.50. Besides this recipe, I’ve made 5 or 6 of the chili recipes from the book and all have been fantastic. It’s one of the best finds I’ve made! As far as I’m concerned I more than got my money’s worth just with this chili sauce!

Instructions

  • Brown the ground beef and drain.
  • Add onion and garlic and cook another 5 minutes.
  • Add remaining ingredients and stir.
  • Simmer until thickened, about 20 minutes. If the sauce gets too thin add a bit of water.
  • Note: You can also cover and slow-cook this sauce for a few hours if you wish. It comes out nice and tender. Cook it less for a chili sauce with a little more bite from the beef.
  • Update: I made this great sauce again over the weekend. Our grocery store was out of premium enchilada sauce, so I used a “lesser” brand. I ended up adding a good amount of hot chile powder to the mix, but it still came out fantastic.

Notes

Add a little diced jalapeno for a little kick.

Smashburger Sauce

Sadly, it has been a while since we’ve been to a Smashburger. My mouth waters just thinking about our last visit. I searched around the web and found the recipe for the sauce they use on their burgers, and just had to make it. I made up a batch of Smashburger sauce for grilled burgers last night and it was outstandingly good. And it was just as good for dipping French fries (in my case, sweet potato fries).

Smashburger sauce

The Perfect Burger Sauce?

There are two variations of this smashburger sauce on the web, one that uses dill pickle juice and one that uses lemon (which is probably more true to the actual sauce in the restaurant). I didn’t have a lemon on hand, so I went with the pickle juice and it was great. I’ll try lemon next time, but if you don’t have a lemon, just go with pickle juice and you’ll be very happy!

Cheater Crispy Chicken Po Boy

Whenever I make a big batch of Chez John’s Kaw-Cajun Comeback sauce, I go into po boy mode. I love a good po boy. But, sometimes I am in a bit of a rush, so I just warm up some pre-cooked crispy chicken tenders, add a few more ingredients, and before you know it I’m enjoying a great cheater crispy chicken po boy!

Cheater Crispy Chicken Po Boy

It’s Crazy Easy And Crazy Good

So, why’s this great sandwich a “cheater”? Well, because I used pre-cooked chicken. A real po boy would’ve been cooked on the fly. I didn’t have the time for that. So I made a cheater crispy chicken po boy instead.

Mason Jar Salad

We often have a salad with our dinner. Sometimes, you want to mix it up a little. Make it  look a little different. These Mason jar salads did just that. Great greens, juicy explode-in-your-mouth tomatoes, and a few croutons, all topped with homemade dressings. It might be just a salad. But put it in a jar and everyone ‘oooohs’ and ‘aaaaahs’. Just like they do for my classic wedge salads.

Mason Jar Salad

Eating Out Of A Jar Is Fun

You can put anything you want into these salads. As long as it’ll fit through the jar opening. I used jelly Mason jars since they are big around the base. They also have a large mouth, making it easier to get to the salad.

BBQ Hobo Packets

I’ve made a few variations on hobo packets. They’re easy to make, tasty, and make for easy cleanup. This BBQ hobo packets version uses BBQ sauce and has quickly become one of my favorites. Cheesy goodness, with potatoes and onion, all cooked with sausage in a BBQ sauce. All of the ingredients get all steamy happy inside the packet while they cook and the flavors melds perfectly.

Ingredients

  • 8 small red potatoes

  • ½ sweet onion cut into thin wedges
  • ½ pound smoked sausage cut into bite-sized pieces (or chicken tenderloins)
  • 3 tablespoons your favorite BBQ sauce spicy works best

  • Spread out foil pieces and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of oil each.
  • Add the remaining ingredients, splitting them between the two pieces of foil, drizzling with however much BBQ sauce you prefer (a tablespoon or so each should be enough). Also add half of the potatoes to each.

  • Remove from grill and open to let cool before serving.

Notes

If you aren’t careful the bottoms of the packets can get very hot. Let them cool before serving!

Marinated Hot Dogs

Well, who would’ve thought about marinating hot dogs? Sure, I marinate pork, chicken and beef all of the time. But it never occurred to me to make marinated hot dogs. Well, trust me, these hot dogs are delicious! They’re packed with flavor, and super moist! Just like with marinating anything else, you’ll get a much better end result. These are surprisingly good. They’re a great thing to serve at a cookout because they will be the center of every discussion. So make a big batch today!

Marinated Hot Dogs

No Boring Dogs. Ever.

This simple idea for hot dogs really spices up plain old beef hot dogs. There’s no reason to make boring dogs when you just have to ‘soak’ them for an hour in Worcestershire sauce to end up with something so much better.

Bratwurst Bath

I made up this idea for a bratwurst bath. I have no idea who or what influenced the idea, but I use this technique any time I grill bratwursts. Other than the beer, butter and onions I have no real recipe for this. Bell peppers? Sure! Serrano peppers? Heck yeah! Whatever!

Bratwurst Bath

Save The Veggies! Save The Veggies!

I should add that the vegetables from the bratwurst bath are also really great on top of hot dogs or hamburgers. I also like to toss them on the grill real quick to get some color. A cast iron skillet works great for this. Or a griddle pan.

I leave in or take out whatever vegetables I have on hand… you don’t have to make this exactly as it is written. I also like adding jalapeno, but I’ll leave it out depending on the crowd.

Always make sure you support the bottom of the pan you use for your bath if you are using a disposable one.

A few jalapenos add a nice bit of heat to your bratwurst bath!

Mini Ice Cream Sandwiches

Something so simple… something so good! I made these mini ice cream sandwiches for July 4th. They only take a few minutes to throw together (plus add in some freezer time). They disappear in seconds.

I used smaller chocolate chip cookies. Of course, you could use bigger cookies and make these not-so-mini ice cream sandwiches.

Mini Ice Cream Sandwiches

Make A Bunch. Make Them Different.

Next time I’ll try a different ice cream. Probably mint chocolate chip. And I might dip them in chocolate shell. Oh man, that’s a great idea! I wish I had some chocolate shell in the house!

If you’re making these for a crowd, I’d make a number of different variations so everyone can get one that they like. Chocolate. Vanilla. Strawberry. Etc.

  • Roll the edges in the nuts, pressing down slightly.
  • Wrap in small pieces of foil or plastic wrap and return to the freezer for 10-15 minutes to harden.

Sriracha Slaw

I love a slaw with some kick. Sure, I’ll enjoy a big ole bowl of sweet slaw too, but for my money you can’t beat a Sriracha slaw that brings a little heat. This is not your usual boring creamy slaw. Nor is it your usual vinegary slaw either. There’s more than a bit of spiciness in it. There’s lots of flavor too!

Sriracha Slaw

Nicely Spicy

Sriracha sauce is a wonderful thing. Though it is a little spicy, it’s not a burn-the-cover-off-your-tongue hot. It’s pleasant really. It adds a little something, something you don’t find in a regular hot sauce. It is fantastic in this Sriracha slaw. Heck, I’d have to rename this dish if there weren’t Sriracha in it!

I almost always use Blue Plate mayonnaise in the dishes I make. I think it is the best around. If you can’t find it locally you can pick it up online for a fair price.
