| Well, I was kinda hopin' for some Swarm-owned recipes. For instance, here's one from my fam I love. I used to make it and play 'orphanage' with my sisters:
Haley’s Cheap and Hearty Soup
½ pound fresh green beans 1 pound red potatoes (eight to ten depending on size) 1 ham steak 1 onion salt & pepper to taste
Cube the ham steak and throw it into a large pot (bone too) Rinse off the beans and snap off the ends and toss them in, too Cut the onion into chunks. Heave it in. Wash the potatoes. Yep, you got it. Into the pot.
Fill the pot up with water to about an inch from the top. Set it on the stove and heat on HIGH ‘til boiling. Throttle it down to MEDIUM-LOW and simmer for at least three hours. It can cook longer if you want. Add salt and pepper.

| Zuppa Toscana, Olive Garden Style
8 cups chicken broth 1 chopped white onion 2-3 sliced brown potatoes 1 package ground Italian sausage 4 cups chopped kale 1 tbsp mined garlic 1 cup cream 1 cup shredded asiago or parmesan cheese ½ cup white wine (optional)
Brown the sausage in a pan; set aside without draining. In big ol’ pot, heat the broth to boiling. Add wine if desired. Add onions, potatoes, garlic and kale. Add sausage.

This makes a nice, big o’ pot of it.

| Haley and Kyle's Spicy Molasses Cookies with frosting
Spicy Molasses Cookie
1/2 cup margarine 1/2 cup shortening 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup dark brown sugar 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp cloves 1/2 tsp ginger 1/2 tsp nutmeg 1 Egg 1/4 cup molasses 2 3/4 cup flour 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt
Combine Margarine, shortening, sugars, spices, egg and molasses. Beat mixture well. Sift flour, baking soda, and salt together to combine and remove lumps. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients in 3 equal parts beating well in between each flour installment. Mix well.
Make cookie balls about ping pong ball sized (or use your salad shooter with the tree attachment like I did) Put on a greased cookie sheet. Press down to flatten the bottoms out a little bit so they don't roll around on the pan (and also to make a flat surface to apply your fave frosting).
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until firm when lightly pressed with finger. Careful not to over bake. Cool off the baking sheet on a cooling rack. Cookies should be cakey when cooled.
Once cool take 2 of your cookies and put any store bought frosting you would like in the center and make a sammich outta it! Or you can make your own frosting (recipe below)
Homemade Vanilla Frosting
1 cup shortening 2 teaspoons vanilla 4 cups powdered sugar (sifted) 4 tablespoons milk
Beat together shortening and vanilla for 30 seconds medium speed with an electric mixer. Add 2 cups of powdered sugar a bit at a time while beating. Then add 2 tablespoons milk. Slowly add in the rest of the powdered sugar and the rest of the milk until you get the right thickness for your frosting.
Or if you would like some cream cheese frosting try this recipe:
Cream Cheese Frosting
1 6 ounce package cream cheese 2 teaspoons vanilla 1/2 cup butter 4 cups powdered sugar (sifted)
Beat together cream cheese, vanilla, and butter until fluffy. Slowly add powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until the frosting is the right thickness to spread on cake. Keep in the refrigerator until serving.
And thusly you have your sammich cookies made and ready to eat! Enjoy with a fave warm beverage like tea or hot cocoa or apple cider, or just have it straight up with a big glass o' milk. | |

| Kyle's Gross-o Hamburger Casserole
Note: This is kinda ramshackle; I have no exact numbers for any of this. I kinda just estimate and throw it all together.
A pound or so ground hamburger(or ground turkey) Some mashed potatoes A bag of shredded cheddar cheese A white onion(or yellow, whatever you prefer) A can of green beans(I prefer french style) A can/jar of tomato sauce A can/jar of tomate paste Garlic powder to flavor
Brown the ground hamburger-or turkey. While it's browning, chop the onion and chuck it in there. Drain it. Pour in the tomato paste and sauce(or just one, I kinda like one of each). Drain the green beans and dump those in, too.
Let the whole concotion heat up and simmer, stirring occasionally. Try to get the onions to soften up. Add garlic to taste.
When it seems to look and taste good, pour it all in a casserole dish. Put the mashed potatoes on top, kinda like a shepherd's pie. Put foil on top and pop it in the oven and bake about 20 minutes at. . . uh. . . 400 or 450. Whatever tickles your pickle. About five to ten minutes before it's done, scatter the cheese on top and put it back in to finish.
Then, pull the bastard out, let it sit for a couple minutes- or eat it immediately if you want to burn your mouth off.
Anyway, that's it. Pretty simple, and I really like it.

| Fry bacon, making sure it doesn't curl up too terribly. Coat bacon in maple syrup. Bake bacon for eight minutes at 350 degrees. Eat bacon candy and feel like a diabetic badass. | |

| (I'm guessing a lot with this, since I wing it)
2 Lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (I use one o' them frozen bags of it and thaw it) 2 tbsp salted butter 1 tbsp Herbs de Provence 1 1/2 cup whipping cream 1/2 cup white wine 1 container of Bleu Cheese crumbles Salt and Pepper Wondra Flour if needed
Melt butter in large skillet/saucepan at medium-high heat. Add chicken and brown it. Add wine and cook it off. When chicken's cooked through, remove from skillet. Remove skillet from heat and turn burner to low. Add cream (make SURE the liquid is NOT boiling) and mix in well. Return skillet to burner and add bleu cheese. Stir until melted. If needed, add small amounts of Wondra 'til the sauce thickens to gravy consistency. Salt and Pepper to taste. Return chicken to the skillet and swish it around in the sauce to coat it. Let it sit for about ten minutes on low heat. Serve chicken and spoon sauce over it. | |
