Apple Cake...I love this cake.
Apple Cake
Batter: 3 cups flour, sifted 2 ½ cups sugar 3/1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder 1/8 teaspoon salt 4 eggs, beaten ¾ cup canola oil ¼ cup crushed pineapple ½ cup fresh squeezed orange juice Pre heat oven to 350. Grease and flour a tube pan. Mix the batter well. The batter will be a little heavy. Set it aside. Filling: 6 medium apples, (tart) peeled, cored and sliced. I like them thicker like about a ¼ inch but some like them thinner. 4 Tablespoons sugar 2 Tablespoons brown sugar 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon Mix the sugars and cinnamon before mixing them with apples. Set apple cinnamon/sugar mixture aside for 5 minutes. Put a third of the batter into the tube pan, half of the apples, 1/3 of the batter, the rest of the apples and the remaining batter on top. Make sure no apples “pop up” through the top layer of batter. Bake for an hour and 10 minutes. Should be golden and a little crusty on top. Cool Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle caramel sauce over the cake. I loved the drizzled caramel sauce. (I tried melting caramels and pouring but it got too hard, caramel ice cream sauce seems to work best.)

OMG there is nothing better than a fresh, ripe tomato!!
Tomato Sandwich Large Ripe Tomato, cut into 1/2 inch slices Two slices bread, toasted (I like whole grain for this sandwich) 1/2 avocado 1-2 Lettuce leaves (I think butter lettuce works best with this) 1/4 cucumber (sliced very thin) 1 tbs mayo (if you are a vegetarian, substitue safflower mayo) salt and pepper to taste Mash the avocado and mix with the mayo, apply it to both slices of bread, then pile on the rest of the ingredients to your sandwich and dig in!! MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.....i gotta go get some tomatoes!

So tonight we are having Lemon Chicken,Wild Black Rice(haven't tasted this one before,we are very excited),a small salad. For dessert we are doing Breyers Carb Smart Vanilla Ice Cream topped with Walden Farms Sugar Free Chocolate Sauce,and their Marshmallow Fluff.
I love anything made by Walden Farms. They do all kinds of sugar free salad dressing and dessert toppings. www.waldenfarms.comI cannot have sugar, so when I find something good, I get everything I can. All this was inspired by items that were going to be purchased at Whole Foods,but they just stopped taking personal checks a few weeks ago. |

Chicken and Artichokes
I ummm charmed this recipe from Chef at an Italian Restaurant in Little Italy/Minneapolis. The Bechamel sauce is tricky, not to thin, not to thick. Bechamel in French, Bechiamella in Italian and according to Betty (as in Crocker, All Hail Betty) a medium thick white sauce. (Lasagna in Bologna, Italy is made with layers of pasta, bechiamella and meat sauce.) INGREDIENTS: 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch cubes 2 (8 ounce) can artichoke hearts in water, drained 16 fresh mushrooms, sliced 2 ounces sun dried tomatoes 1 can black olives, drained and chopped 1 pinch paprika 1 tablespoon olive oil 4 cups homemade béchamel sauce Parmesan Cheese (fresh grated) Linguini for 6 ________________________________________ DIRECTIONS: Heat olive oil in pan over medium heat. Saute chicken pieces until chicken is light-to-golden brown in color. Add artichoke hearts, olives ,and mushrooms to pan; heat for about 90 seconds. Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water. Drain. Pour chicken sauce over pasta on large platter, top with fresh grated Parmesan cheese and serve! Turn heat to low, add cooked pasta to pan, and heat until warm. Add warm Bechamel Sauce to pan, and toss ingredients 3 to 4 times. Serve with freshly grated black pepper and fresh Parmesan cheese to taste. Bechamel Sauce Sprinkle dash of paprika over food for color, if desired. 4 tablespoons butter 4 tablespoons grated onion 4tablespoons all-purpose flour 2 cup chicken broth 2 cup half-and-half 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper 1 pinch ground cayenne pepper ________________________________________ DIRECTIONS: In a small saucepan, melt butter and stir in the flour, salt and white pepper. Add cold half-and-half and COLD chicken broth all at once. Stir well. Cook, stirring frequently, at medium heat until thick. Remove from heat and stir in seasoning.

One of the first things that attracted me to Paphigleo was the concept of food porn.
On the phone, this guy can make food sound better than the hottest gay boy action- and if you dont know what Im talking about here, sorry, just ignore the reference. Anyway, we would talk for hours, and then, just as I would be ready to say good by and hang up, hed start talking about what he was making for dinner that night. OMG this Butch can COOK. His meals are better than a well matched orgy with no drama or pillow princessess. Currently hes in the kitchen making food fantasies come true. Im a lucky lucky lucky girl. Im hoping he will join the conversation, and add some of his stuff to this thread. At the moment hes posting a yummy reduced real meat meatball on a calorie counting website. Im going to finish the dishes and see what other good stuff he might come up with. |

Grape Orgasms
Yes, I have had people beg me to make them. They are labor intensive but so worth it. You pop one in your mouth, bite down to the nutty flavor of the almonds, through the sharp/salty taste/sweet of blue cheese and with a squirt of grape the flavors dance against your tongue in a culinary orgasm. They had some mundane name but the moment I bit into one I re-named them. lol
Grape Orgasms 10 ounces almonds, hazelnuts or pecans 1 cup cream cheese, at room temperature 1/2 cup Roquefort cheese, at room temperature 2 tablespoons cream 50 seedless grapes, red or green Beat or process cream cheese and Roquefort (from sheep milk and a wee bit sweeter) cheese until soft. I have also made it with Gorgonzola (cow or goat's milk and a salty sharper flavor). Rinse and dry grapes. It is very very important to dry the grapes. Drop grapes in cheese mixture. Stir with a spatula until each grape is coated with cheese mixture. Roll one grape at a time in the nuts until they are well coated. I hand wrap each grape with the blue cheese mixture and roll them into the nuts. Transfer grapes to a baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until 30 minutes before serving. I form them into little grape clusters to serve. Make sure you hide a few for yourself because they disappear fast...
