Homemade Cranberry Juice

 Homemade cranberry juice 

1 3/4 cups of cranberries 

1/2 cup sugar 

Boiling water 

Add 1 3/4 cups of  cranberries to your clean warm jars first, then add the sugar.  Pour the boiling water over the cranberry sugar mix. Leave about a half inch headspace in the top of the jar. Make sure you stir out all bubbles around the fruit and mix the sugar. You may find that you will need top of the jar with more water. Wipe the tops of the jars with a clean vinegar cloth then add the lids and rings to the jar. Now add them to the water bath. Make sure there’s an inch to 2 inches of water above the top of the lids. Boil for 30 minutes.

Take out jars and place on the counter on a towel leave undisturbed for 24 hours. Check to make sure bottles are all sealed before you put in the pantry. The shelf life is three years. It needs to sit 4 to 6 weeks before juice is ready to drink. 

4 12oz packages of  cranberries makes about 9 quart jars

MEXICAN CORN DIP

 Yield: 4 Servings    Prep: 5 Minutes    cook: 10 minutes    total: 15 minutes

The traditional Mexican street corn is turned into the best dip ever. It’s so good, you won’t even need the chips. Just grab a spoon!

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 cups corn kernels, frozen, canned or roasted
• 1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons crumbled cotija cheese
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 clove garlic, pressed
• Juice of 1 lime

Instructions

1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add corn kernels and jalapeño, and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred, about 8-10 minutes.

2. Stir in mayonnaise, cotija, cilantro, chili powder, garlic and lime juice.

3. Serve immediately.

Quick Note: I will typically add the directed ingredients for the sauce and adjust for taste. I also use Paprika to top after the dip is finished. Enjoy! 

Hawaiian Crockpot Chicken

 Sweet and Tangy Hawaiian Chicken 

2 lbs chicken (about 2 breast)

1/2 thinly sliced yellow onion

1 cup BBQ sauce (I use Sweet Baby Rays)

1 Tablespoon soy sauce 

2 teaspoons of Worcestershire Sauce

2 teaspoons garlic Powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon ginger

1 can of pineapple tidbits

-add all ingredients to slow cooker stir and cover cook on low for six hours high for four.

-Avoid removing lid as chicken cooks when chicken is done cooking remove the lid and allow extra liquid to cook off if necessary

-Shred chicken and serve over rice

Sidenote… I like to add my barbecue sauce After the chicken is done cooking, maybe the last half hour. It keeps the sugar in the barbecue sauce from burning in the crockpot.

Cake mix cookies

Ingredients 

• 1 (15.25-ounce) box cake mix
• ½ scant cup vegetable oil , or 7 TB melted butter
• 2 large eggs

Optional Mix-in’s: Chocolate chips, M&M’s, Rolo's, etc.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, stir the cake mix, oil, and eggs until combined. If you have time, refrigerate the dough 15 to 20 minutes (it will make it a little easier to work with, since it is sticky).
Using a medium scoop or spoon, scoop the dough onto the baking sheet. Top with additional toppings, if desired. Bake 9 to 11 minutes, or until the cookies are set. You don’t want them to brown. 
Let cool a couple minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer to a cooling rack. Store in a covered container up to 3 days.
