Tea Party at the Doyles!

 

 

Bread making!

I have been learning how to make bread...

 

 

 

This is called pumpkin egg braided bread.

 

 

 

This is honey wheat bread. I made it using the yeast that Grandma Bowen brought us at Christmas time. See how it rises...

 

 

 It works great! It tastes so yummy, warm out of the oven!



Philly cheese steak sandwiches

Ingredients:

1 (3_pound) sirloin tip roast, very thinly sliced 

1 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt, divided

1 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

1 cup beef broth

2 tablespoons worcershire sauce 

1 medium sweet onion, thinly sliced 

1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced 

1 tablespoon minced garlic 

1 (6_count) hoagie rolls, toasted 

 

I sprinkled the sirloin tip roast with 1 teaspoon of garlic salt, and pepper. In a large skillet I put 1 tablespoon of oil and cook the meat on high heat for 5 to 6 minutes. Then added the beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce and bring until a boil; then reduce the heat and let it simmer.

In another skillet put 1 tablespoon of oil in and put in the onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms. I didn’t put the mushrooms in because no one in my family likes mushrooms even I don’t like mushrooms.

Add garlic and stir occasionally let cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until tender.

Stir in the remaining ½ teaspoon of garlic salt and pepper. 

Then I made provolone cheese sauce that became really thick.

   

Put on hoagie buns that are toasted and enjoy!

Mini Strawberry Cheesecakes

I made mini strawberry cheesecakes for Valentine’s Day. The recipe calls for crushed up chocolate wafer cookies, but I just used a brownie mix. When you bake it, bake for a short time so that you can put the filling in.

It is a nice yummy Valentine treat. It's found in Paula Deen’s magazine, page 47.

Pumpkin Seeds with Ranch and Sea Salt

Pumpkin season means fresh pumpkin for pies and pumpkin bread, and what do you do with the seeds?

I did part of the seeds with dry ranch dressing mix and the rest with coarse salt and drizzled with oil. Then I put them in the oven at 350 for 20 min to 30 min or until they start to get brown. Be careful not to let them get burned.  Try it!
