so....i'm a little distracted today and thought i'd share some of my favorite recipes. well, one is a new one that i just tried. the other 3 are fall favorites around here:)
Smudgies
1 c. sugar
1 c. light corn syrup
1 c. peanut butter
6 c. rice krispies
1 c. chocolate chips
1 c. butterscotch chips
Mix sugar and corn syrup to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter. Add cereal and press in greased 9x13 pan. Melt chips together over low heat. Spread over bars. Cool until firm.
Friends - when my mom would send these to me at college i had to hide them from people. well, i did share some:) I like to double the chips and make a thicker topping!
Peppered Beef (just made last night - for the first time)
1 rump roast (3lb or so)
2 Tbsp parsely
1 Tbsp oregano
2 tsp basil, pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
16oz mild pepper rings with juice (use vlasic)
Place roast in crockpot. Dump on dry ingredients. Add the peppers and juice. Cook on low for 8 hours or longer. I served it shredded over rice and in tortillas. I think it would be yummy on flatbread with melted provolone or mozzarella cheese too! Everyone liked it here and it is super easy!
Maple Pork Chops
Salt and Coat 4 pork chops with flour
Melt 1 Tbsp butter in skillet. Cook coated pork 2-3 minutes on each side. In another bowl, combine 2 Tbsp melted butter, 1/4 c. honey (can use brown sugar just add some water to make it syrupy) and 1/4c. crushed pecans. Pour over the pork chops and simmer, covered for 7-8 minutes.
I like to double the syrup and serve the extra over rice. everyone loves this and it is easy but looks fancy shmancy!!
Applesauce Pork Roast
I use some kind of pork roast that fits my crockpot - whatever is on sale
Combine: 2 tbsp flour, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp sugar 1/8 tsp pepper and 1 tsp mustard. Rub this on the roast and place in crockpot.
Cook on low 6-8 hours. If frozen cook on high for 4 hours then turn to low.
Combine 1 c. applesauce, 1/3 c. brown sugar 2 tsp. vinegar (i like applecider vinegar) and 1/4 tsp. cloves. Pour this over the roast atleast 2 hours before serving.
The best is leftovers - shred and warm with bbq sauce. this is the best pulled pork bbq sandwiches EVER!!!!
When I make this we eat the roast, a few days later eat it as bbq, then i can freeze the rest of the bbq for a quick meal at a later time!
enjoy friends.....
