In honor of my being able to spell hors d'oeuvres...

Yummy Bruschetta

My cousin made this for gpop's birthday ... pretty kick-ass good for an appetizer.

4 boxes of grape tomatoes
3 cloves of garlic
fresh basil leaves
2 bags of finely grated mozarella cheese
2 tubes of grands crescent rolls or the big and flakey (grands has more calories so they taste better)
I use a big cookie sheet and roll out the crescents and bake.

The night before I dice by had all of the tomatoes, use a garlic press for the cloves of garlic, dice up the basil leaves, a splash of olive oil, splash of vinagar and a handfull of sugar.

She kept the tomato mixture in a bowl just until she was serving it; then she spread it on the baked sheet of crescent roll. You could cut it up into squares and put them on a plate for serving.

This is really embarrassing. But for the record, I have never discussed Kwillia's chicken dip with you.

I :heart: you.

I still have to think about it for a moment whenever I see the phrase "hors d'oeuvres". Because if I don't, I intially pronounce it "Oar Day Vors". Then Nickel says, you tard! it's "oar derves"! Hahaha that's funny.

K_Jo's Chicken Dip Recipe:

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 (16 ounce) jar mayonnaise
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chile peppers
1 jalapeno pepper, finely diced

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place chicken breast halves on a medium baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven 20 minutes, or until no longer pink. Remove from heat, cool and shred.

Place shredded chicken in a medium bowl, and mix in cream cheese, mayonnaise, Cheddar cheese, green chile peppers and jalapeno pepper. Transfer the chicken mixture to a medium baking dish.

Bake uncovered in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

YUM!!! I'm hungry now!!!

I like to call them horses ovaries. But that's just me.

So which one of those chicken dip recipes is best? That appeals to me because:

1. I can make it in the crockpot and won't have to bake it when I get there.
2. We're picking crabs so a heavier appetizer will be appreciated.
3. This is a dippy crowd - crab dip, artichoke dip, spinach dip. They'll like this.
4. My MIL and SIL are excellent and creative cooks, but they've never brought anything like this and they'll want the recipe.

I'm taking this to a party on Saturday. It's from Paula Deen's Food.tv show:

Crab Stuffed Mushrooms en Croute

1/2 cup herb flavored cheese (recommended: Boursin)
1/2 cup finely minced crabmeat (may use imitation)
18 uniform sized mushrooms, stem removed
1 box phyllo pastry (will need at least 18 sheets)
1/3 cup butter, melted
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 egg, beaten

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Combine cheese and crab in a small bowl. Divide crab mixture among the upside-down mushroom caps, stuffing the mushrooms. Carefully lay 6 sheets of phyllo dough on top of one another, brushing every other sheet with melted butter. Cut phyllo lengthwise down the center and then cut each half into 3 pieces to make 6 rectangles. Place a mushroom, cheese side up, in the center of each square. Season with salt and pepper. Lift sides of pastry over mushrooms to resemble small bundles and form a "neck," pinching edges together to seal. Repeat the entire procedure 2 more times.

Place on a greased baking sheet and brush with beaten egg. Bake for about 15 minutes until pastry is crisp and golden. Serve hot.

I should not have read this thread this morning. Now I'm starving.

 

[Larry Gude]

Hell...

...I have been asked to bring some to a family party this weekend.

What should I make? I ate like a little hog this past weekend because you all are just creative and excellent cooks. Share some ideas and recipes! I will have access to an oven so I can make/take/bake if need be.

TIA
