Uncle Ray's Super Duper Catfish Stew

 

Uncle Ray’s Super Duper

Catfish Stew

The only thing I did different was I didn’t fry the fish and I left my tatas chunky… but it still was super duper.

Egg Slut

 


Perfected... ditched the red onions, added bacon bits, microwaved mashed potatoes for 30 seconds, sprayed cover with a little cooking spray so it wouldn't stick, and then submersed in boiling water for 10 minutes.  


I came across this recipe from a fellow blogger through my April #atozchallenge.  Who'd have thought there was a slutty egg recipe?  I absolutely had to try it and it's a definite keeper for me.  Wicked good! Thank you Anne M. Bray!  

EggSlut and "The Slut" Recipe

Ingredients

·                     1/2 c mashed potatoes

·                     1 egg

·                     butter (I used 1/2 tbsp. I like butter)

·                     chopped chives (I used green onions and some red)








Method


→Get a jar with tight-fitting lid (at least 8 oz. size) the wide mouth half pint mason jars are perfect.

→Before adding ingredients, measure for water level in saucepan. 

You want the jar completely covered. I made the mistake and it was not fully covered so I had to cook longer so that the top of the eggs was not all runny.



→Heat water to boiling.

→In jar, add ingredients in order listed (potatoes on bottom) Next time I will microwave the potatoes for about 30 seconds...I like my food really hot.

Cover with lid, place in boiling water

→Cook for about 6-8 minutes, depending on size of jar and the consistency of how you like your egg.

I let mine cook for about 9 minutes.  Next time I will microwave the mashed potato a little so that it’s not cold going in.

Italian Tortilla Casserole

 


Italian Tortilla Casserole

 

4 taco size flour tortillas

1 lb. ground beef

1 28 oz. can pasta sauce

½ tsp. garlic powder

½ tsp. onion powder

½ tsp. fresh ground pepper

1 tsp. dried basil

8 oz. sour cream

8 oz. cream cheese

½ cup milk

½ cup chopped onions

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

3 cups fresh baby spinach

 

Grease casserole dish.  Cook ground beef and drain off fat.  Stir in pasta sauce, [reserving a scant cup for later] basil, garlic, onion powder, and pepper.  Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes, uncovered.

 

Beat the cream cheese and sour cream together until smooth. Add milk and onions and stir well.

 

Place half of the flour tortillas on bottom of casserole dish. I cut mine to fit. Cover with half of the meat mixture, half of the cream cheese mixture and all of the spinach.  Add remaining meat mixture and cover with tortillas. Spread reserved pasta sauce over top of tortillas.  Cover remaining cream cheese mixture and place in fridge.

 

Spray aluminum foil lightly with cooking spray and cover casserole tightly.

Bake 350º for 45 minutes. Remove foil and spread reserved cream cheese mixture over top, sprinkle with cheddar cheese.  Bake an additional 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.  Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

Air Fryer Biscuits

 


Buttermilk Biscuits

1¾ cup all-purpose flour

½ tsp. baking soda

¾ tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. sugar

¼ cup (4 Tbsp.) butter, cut in pieces

Scant cup real buttermilk

 

v  Sift dry ingredients together in bowl.

Ø  *(If you don’t have a sifter a wire colander works just as well. I never used to sift, but have found that it makes for a much nicer textured biscuit.)

v  Using pastry cutter or fork cut the butter into the flour mixture until it is pea sized clumps.

v   Add scant cup (more or less) buttermilk.

       Ø  Real buttermilk is key.  If you don’t have buttermilk you can do the milk and lemon juice alternative, but the flavor is just not quite the same.+

v  Select Air fry option at 400º for 14 minutes

Ø  These were made in the Emeril Lagasse Power Air Fryer 360

Ø  Temperature and time may vary depending on air fryer brand

v  Line crisper tray with parchment paper.

v  Drop six scoops of dough on paper.

v  Cook for 8 minutes, then turn tray and cook an additional 6 minutes.
