I visit read several cooking blogs via my Bloglines rss feeder and so I always seem to have lots bookmarked. I spent the last few days cleaning up my reader as it was getting pretty bogged down. In the process I have copied the recipes I had saved to my online recipe box. Since there were so many of them I thought I would list them here and share with all of you.
There are 39 new recipes.. Hope you find something you may enjoy..
DISCLAIMER: These are not my recipes, nor are the comments written my words. I have noted on each where the recipe has come from (what blog) and except for the photographs that were with many of them, I have copied the recipe as it was posted on the original site.

These smoothies are the newest hit around our house. The kids absolutely love them, and my husband and I have been enjoying a glass or two (or three or four…) ourselves.
I’ve come to the conclusion that these smoothies can serve equally well as a breakfast, snack or dessert. They are creamy and rich and taste like they should be forbidden. But if you look at the ingredients, I think you’ll agree they are a perfect powerhouse for breakfast too.
Whenever you decide to serve them, I think you’ll agree with all of us that they are unbelivable!
Chunky Monkey Smoothies
” 4 bananas, cut into quarters
” 1/3 c. peanut butter
” 3-4 c. chocolate milk (or white milk with chocolate milk powder or syrup added)
1. In a blender or food processor, combine all ingredients. Use only 3 c. of milk to start. Process until desired consistency, adding more milk as needed.
Some tips:
**Frozen bananas are perfect for this! Not only are the smoothies a great way to use those on-the-verge-of-being-pitched bananas, but the frozen bananas add a great texture to the smoothies. Plus, they help the smoothies stay cold, which is always a great thing in my book.
**Use Ovaltine or Carnation Instant Breakfast powders in place of the chocolate milk powder. Such an easy way to add a little more boost to breakfast.
**The recipe above will make enough for 4-6 servings, depending on how big your serving sizes are.

This weekend, my in-laws came over to celebrate a VERY late Christmas with us. When I was thinking of the menu for the night, I kept thinking back to the first time we all went out to dinner together. So I settled on a re-creation of what I knew was my father-in-laws favorite dish.
I did a little bit of research on City Chicken and I was surprised to realize it’s not a dish that’s around much anymore. I think part of the reason has to do with the changing meat prices over the years.
You see, City Chicken was developed around the 1930s as a way to knock-off chicken without spending the money on chicken. The traditional City Chicken recipes uses cubes of pork, veal and beef. The cubes of meat are skewered, breaded, fried and baked. The thought is that the meat on the skewer resembles a chicken leg. Obviously these days it would be much more economical to just make some breaded chicken legs.
However, City Chicken definitely stands on its own as a tasty, down-home comfort food. I made our skewers with just pork and they were so delicious. My husband is insisting that this recipe makes it onto our regular rotation.
City Chicken
” 2 lbs. boneless pork cutlets, cubed
” Bamboo skewers, cut in half and soaked in water for at least 20 minutes
” 2 eggs
” 1/4 c. milk
” 1 c. breadcrumbs
” 1 c. flour
” 1 t. each salt, pepper, paprika
” 6 T. butter
” 2 c. chicken stock
” 1/4 – 1/3 c. flour
1. Skewer about 5-6 cubes of pork on each bamboo skewer.
2. In a shallow plate, whisk together eggs and milk. In a second shallow plate, combine flour, bread crumbs and seasonings. Dip skewers in eggs then in flour mixture until completely covered. Refrigerate breaded skewers for at least 30 minutes to help the breading stick.
3. Melt butter in a large skillet. Place as many skewers as will fit in the skillet. Brown on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking dish. Once all browned skewers are in baking dish, pour chicken stock on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 – 1 1/2 hours.
4. Remove pork from the oven. Pour the baking liquid into a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Dissolve flour in an equal amount of water. Slowly drizzle the flour into the pan and stir. Boil until thickened to desired consistency. Serve gravy with the city chicken skewers.
