Mexican Pizza

Wednesday, 30 December 2015

 Mexican Pizza



I always pick up extra tins of beans and chili when they are on special at the shops.  They make great store cupboard ingredients.  



Sometimes its kidney beans, or cannelini, borlotti or chick peas . . . and sometimes it's refried beans.   They always come in handy.



 Mexican Pizza



Especially these days when our food budget is very tight, and more often than not I find myself looking for an economical and filling meal for the two of us, but also something which is delicious.  These Mexican Pizzas do just that.  



They are a great way to make a tin of beans and a tin of chili stretch to feed four people. They are also incredibly delicious. I love them!




 Mexican Pizza



They're quick to make and are very, very tasty.  I often am able to pick up jars of salsa on special as well.  



In any case I always have one or two in the store cupboard, along with pouches of green and black olives, which I also pick up when they are only 99p for each pouch. A real bargain as they are filled with plenty of flavour!




 Mexican Pizza



I also pick up extra blocks of cheese when they are on special as well.   I throw them into the freezer, which means I also always have an additional source of protein to hand.  



Having all these things in my store cupboard means I always have the things I need to throw together a tasty and economical meal at the drop of a hat.



Mexican Pizza



I also make my own tortillas from scratch.  I've been doing it for years.  You will find the recipe below.  



It makes more than you will need for this recipe, but they also freeze very well, so that's not a problem and they come in handy for all sorts.  



 
Mexican Pizza



You can use them for wraps, or enchiladas, or soft tacos.   if you don't like to use lard you can use Crisco or White Flora or Trex.  All work well.  



I do hope you will give these a try and that you enjoy them as much as we do, and when you do that you come back and let me know!  



Of course you could make your own chili con carne, or use leftover chili.   I just wanted you to know that a tin of chili works just as well and is really handy!




 Mexican Pizza



*Mexican Pizza*
Serves 4
Printable Recipe



Who wouldn't love an individual Mexican pizza all to themselves, especially when they are this tasty!  (Also very simple to make!)



8 6-inch flour tortillas
1 tin of stag chili con carne
1 clove of garlic, peeled and minced
1 tin (400g/16oz) tin of refried beans
1/2 to 1 tsp chipolte chili paste (depending on how hot you like it)
1 300g jar of tomato salsa (about 1 cup) divided
3 spring onions, chopped
a handful of green olives, pitted and chopped
a handful of black olives, pitted and chopped
120g of grated strong cheddar cheese (1 cup)
130g of grated Monterrey Jack cheese (1 cup)
shredded lettuce and sour cream to garnish

Preheat the oven to 200*C/400*F. gas mark 6.   Line several large baking trays with foil.  Spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray.

Place the chile and refried beans into a bowl and mash well together along with the garlic and chipolte chili paste.   Place 4 of the tortillas onto the baking trays.  Divide the bean mixture between each and spread over to cover.  Top with the remaining four tortillas, pressing down lightly to stick together.

Bake them in the heated oven for 10 minutes.  Remove from the oven.   Spread half of the salsa over top of each pizza, dividing it equally between the four.   Mix the cheeses together and divide this amongst the pizzas as well, sprinkling it over top.  Sprinkle with the spring onions and olives.   Return to the oven for a further 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the pizzas are crisp on the edges.

Allow to cool slightly before serving garnished with additional salsa, lettuce and sour cream.  Delicious!

*Flour Tortillas*
makes 14 to 16
Printable Recipe

So easy to do and so much tastier then the shop bought ones.

150g of plain flour (1 1/2 cups all purpose)
100g of strong flour (1 cup bread flour)
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp fine sea salt
110g of lard or white flora (1/2 cup)
250ml hot water (1 cup)

In a large mixing bowl, combine both types of flour, baking powder and salt. Drop 1/2 cup lard by the spoonfuls into flour mixture and, using a pastry cutter, your fingers or a fork, cut lard until it crumbles and is evenly dispersed in the flour. Slowly add the hot water and stir together until mixture sticks to itself. If not quite moist, add 1-2 more tbsp. lard, as needed.

Knead, in the mixing bowl, for 3-5 minutes or until dough forms a ball and becomes less sticky. Cover bowl with tea towel and let rest for 1 hour. Break the dough into 14-16 smaller pieces and roll the pieces into balls. Cover balls of dough for an additional 30 minutes.

 Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Using a well-floured rolling pin, roll one dough ball at a time into a thin, round tortilla. Make sure the ball is rolled out to be very, very thin. Carefully place onto the hot skillet and cook until bubbly and golden, about 30-40 seconds. Flip the tortilla over and continue cooking until golden on the other side.

Wrap the cooked tortilla in a clean tea towel until ready to eat. Repeat with the remaining dough. Serve immediately or, once completely cool, store in an air-tight bag or container. To warm, wrap in damp paper towel and microwave for 20-30 seconds or wrap in foil and warm in oven.

Cheddar Pan Biscuits

Monday, 28 December 2015

Cheddar Pan Biscuits

Source: Uploaded by user via Latoyia on Pinterest


I have never been much of a bread maker.   Bread and I don't get along very well, and that is kind of sad to me . . . for after all, isn't bread considered to be the "Staff of Life?"

I don't make bread, I make doorstops.  Nice, heavy, doorstops.


Cheddar Pan Biscuits




Point in case, yesterday . . . 

I thought I would make this lovely cardamom scented vanilla bread, but by heck, what did I end up with?????

Cheddar Pan Biscuits 


A lovely cardamom scented door stop.  The only thing missing was the handle. 



Cheddar Pan Biscuits

I'm not sure what my problem with bread is.  Oh, I make nice enough bread in the bread maker, but then the bread maker does all the work, I just dump the ingredients in, cross my fingers, and hope for the best!

Cheddar Pan Biscuits

I do make good biscuits though . . . and they are a form of bread.  


Yesterday I dusted off an old recipe of mine, that I have had for donkey's . . .

Cheddar Pan Biscuits

After that first failure of the day, I just had to have some success at something . . . besides . . . I was hankering after bread. 

 And what's a gal to do when that happens . . . you bake biscuits, which are not bread . . . but are sometimes better than bread.  These are fabulous.  

Especially when spread with cold butter whilst still warm from the oven.  Oh my . . . oh my . . .

Cheddar Pan Biscuits

*Cheddar Pan Biscuits*
Makes 12
Printable Recipe

Cheddar cheese and basil makes these home baked pan biscuits a tasty supper accompaniment.  They are wonderful with stews and soups, and incredibly good with cold meats and salads.  I guess they just go well with everything!

1/3 cup butter (75g)
2 1/4 cups flour (225g)
4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (1 cup)
(plus about 1 ounce more for sprinkling on at the end)
1 TBS baking powder
1 TBS sugar
1 tsp dried basil leaves
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup milk (250ml)

Cheddar Pan Biscuits


Pre-heat the oven to 200*C/400*F/ gas mark 6.  Place the butter in an 8 inch square baking pan and set it into the oven to melt.  (3 to 5 minutes)  Remove from the oven and set aside.

Meanwhile whisk together the flour, cheese, baking powder, sugar, basil leaves and salt in a large bowl.  Add the milk and stir it in just until the mixture is moistened evenly.  Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead for a minute until smooth.  (about 6 or 7 turns)

Pat or roll the dough out to a 12 by 6 inch rectangle.  Cut into 12 1-inch wide strips.  Dip the strips into the melted butter in the pan, one at a time and then fold each strip in half.  Place the folded strips in 2 rows in the same pan as you have melted the butter in. Sprinkle the 1 ounce of shredded cheese evenly over top.

Bake for 23 to 28 minutes, or until lightly browned.  Serve warm with cold butter for spreading and enjoy!!

Skinny Layered Mac & Cheese

Wednesday, 23 December 2015

 photo DSCN4652_zpsvdwhkcyk.jpg

I know what you are thinking  . . .  skinny mac and cheese?  Can it be possible.  Well, in all truth, there is no such thing as truly skinny mac and cheese, and a better name would probably be skinnier mac and cheese, but hey!  If you can cut the calories in a dish like this and not lose any of the flavour, and end up with a dish that still tastes somewhat indulgent, then I would say job well done!

Skinny Sprout & Carrot Gratin

 photo DSCN4640_zpsat5517sj.jpg

It's not surprising when you start to add up all of the calories in all of the dishes, mains and sides, that people in the UK and other Western countries take in by eating Christmas lunch alone we are talking at a massive amount of caloric intake, for just one meal, not to mention the whole day through . . .  as the feasting begins in the morning and continues on up into the night!   I have tried to come up with a few sides this year that won't break the calorie bank, and yet are still delicious and which feel luxurious.  This Skinny Sprout and Carrot Gratin I am showing you today is one of them.

I've recently been sent some tasty savory nibbles which would be fabuous to serve with drinks at any Open House Parties or Get-togethers you might be throwing over the upcoming Holiday period.  I am running out of time and with my recent illness I have decided to tell you all about them at once.  I hope you will all forgive me!  I just want to tell you about them before you finish up all of your holiday food shopping!

Wonderful Pistachios from California are perfectly seasoned for a delicious flavour with a satisfying crunch. Sun-ripened and 100% naturally opened, Wonderful only offer the largest available nuts that are equally roasted, without added oil.  This is due to their unique rotary roasting technique.


Wonderful Pistachios not only taste delicious, they are also a great all-natural, healthy snack alternative to fully enjoy while relaxing with friends and family or just by yourself. And above all, they are great fun to crack open!

 photo wonderful_hero_zpsfgike3mb.jpg

Wonderful Pistachios are available in four tasty flavours:  Roasted Unsalted, Roasted Salted, Salt and Pepper, and Sweet Chili.  I am awfully fond of the Salt and Pepper ones myself and I have to say our Mitzie is just fond of Pistachios full stop!

Wonderful Amonds are a delicious bite sized snack.  Harvested exclusively in their California Orchards they also come in several flavours.  Roasted and Salted, Blanched and Roasted Natural.   I was sent the Roasted and Salted, which make the perfect drinks nibble.

Indulge in some Christmas magic with this new sweet and spicy Limited Edition Gingerbread popcorn from Butterkist. Perfectly popped with a deliciously warming flavour they're the perfect way to share the festive spirit.  I really like this, and at 103 calories per delicious 25g serving, it's not a bad snack.  High in fibre and whole grain.  Deliciously gingery this would make the perfect snack for all your holiday movie viewing.  (Let me say, that it can pack a bit of a wallop as some of the pieces are quite, quite gingery.)

 Why not treat the children to a Candyland Sweet Champions Tin over the holidays?  This 500g tin contains an assortment of some thirteen different children's favourite sweeties, and I sare say a few adults love them as well. There is a little something here for everyone and every sweet taste.  Available all over the country at a variety of retailers.

Well here we are on the last Saturday before Christmas.  Hasn't the time gone by quickly. There was ever so much I had planned on cooking this month to show you, but alas, circumstances and time have just not allowed for that, and I have to say in all honesty, the shingles have also put somewhat of a damper on that for me.  Oh well, there is always next year and I do have a couple of days that I might be able to catch up, but making no promises!  Today I wanted to show you these fabulous Cranberry and Pinenut Biscotti I baked last weekend!  I don't know about you, but I just love LOVE biscotti, and these ones are especially festive!

Hunter's Chicken and Chips

Hunter's Chicken and Chips





These last couple of days before Christmas (it's coming up on us quickly now!) are bound to be a bit manic and filled with more things to do than you can shake a stick at. Quick and easy meals are the order of the day.  



Delicious throw togethers such as this Hunter's Chicken and Chips which I am showing you today.   I threw it together today with stuff I had in my freezer and fridge and it was absolutely fabulous!  And so simple as well!


Hunter's Chicken and Chips































 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
There are basically only four steps to follow which are as simple as throwing some frozen oven chips into the oven to bake and cooking some frozen chicken chunks while the chips are baking. 



You dress the shredded cooked chicken with barbeque sauce.  Then you layer them in a casserole dish with some cheese and salad dressing and then top with some bacon bits and crispy onions. 



Hunter's Chicken and Chips 






 Simple.  Delicious.  Quick and easy.  Your family will love it! 




 Hunter's Chicken and Chips

 





It's also quite economical.  I often buy bags of frozen french fries when they are on special and keep a couple of bags in the freezer.  I also like to keep bags of frozen chicken chunks.  


These are just the right size for four people, and cook quickly from frozen.  Plus where I shop they only cost £2 for a bag, which is a winner/winner chicken dinner!  (sorry for the pun!)



Hunter's Chicken and Chips 





Hunters Chicken is a very popular dish over here and the shops are full of ready meal Hunter's Chicken dishes . . .  which are basically two chicken breasts in a foil tin, with some cheese and a slice of bacon scattered over top and a sachet of BBQ Sauce on the side. 




 Hunter's Chicken and Chips
 





 And while they are not the most expensive entrees . . .  they aren't the tastiest either.  I guarantee if you try this dish I am showing you today , you will find it waaaaay more tasty, and you will know exactly what went into it.   



Sure 'nuff.  All you need is a vegetable and a salad on the side and dinner is served!



Hunter's Chicken and Chips







*Hunter's Chicken and Chips*

Printable Recipe 

A delicious casserole which doesn't take much effort to make and is quite economical and quick to put together.  All you need on the side is a vegetable and a salad.  If you use low fat ingredients, you can keep the calories down a fair bit.  this is great for on busy days when you want to put something delicious on the table for the family with not much effort, that will still feel and taste like something special 

1 four serving size bag of frozen oven bake chips (french fries)
1 400g bag of frozen uncooked chicken chunks (about 1 pound)

1 tsp Montreal Steak spice
120ml of barbeque sauce (1/2 cup)
120ml of either ranch or blue cheese salad dressing, loosened with a bit of milk (1/2 cup)
240g of grated four cheese blend (2 cups)
2 TBS bacon bits
2 TBS crispy salad onions (like the Durkee ones)  


Hunter's Chicken and Chips 





Preheat the oven and cook the oven chips according to the package directions.   While the chips are cooking do the chicken.  


Add the chicken chunks to a skillet along with the chicken stock, garlic powder and Montreal Steak Spice.   


Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.  Shred with two forks and stir in the Barbeque sauce. 



 Hunter's Chicken and Chips






 Remove the chips from the oven and put them into a gratin dish.  Leave the oven on.  Top the chips with half of the cheese.  Spread the chicken over top of the cheese.  



Drizzle with the salad dressing.  Top with the remaining cheese and sprinkle the bacon bits and crispy salad onions over top.  Return to the heated oven and bake for a further 8 to 10 minutes to melt the cheese and heat through.  Serve immediately.
