Jamba Juice’s Pumpkin Smash Smoothie to Make at Home by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

Jamba Juice’s fantastic seasonal creation blends a pumpkin spice base with frozen yogurt and soy milk. It’s like drinking pumpkin pie through a straw! My home version is really yummy too with just the right amount of spice. The skinny for a 16 ounce serving is 315 calories. A 16 ounce Jamba has 390 calories. You’ll not only save 75…

Foolproof Sugar Cookie Recipe by Annette Vlahos

This recipe is the best sugar cookie recipe ever! There is no mess with a pastry board full of flour! I use parchment paper to roll out the dough. And I get my sprinkles from www.MillCreekCountryStore.com. They have a variety of colors for every holiday.

Roasted spicy chicken wings with goat cheese dip by Micheline

These wings taste better than at the restaurant and are healthier. People are always surprised to find out that my chicken wings can be so delicious when roasted instead of fried. I serve them with a goat cheese dip (less fat) instead of the traditional blue cheese dip with celery and carrot sticks.

Easy Sausage Pierogi Bake by Patti Fisher

Ken wanted macaroni and cheese made meaty with sausage. Patti had an “aha” moment because frozen pierogies are something we always have on hand, plus Ken just cold smoked lots of our favorite kinds of cheese. To make it extra easy we used jars of Alfredo sauce and to make it extra tasty we used Swimmin’ in Smoke Booty Shake Seasoning.…

Southwestern Beer Can Burgers by Patti Fisher

We have been seeing folks post their beer can burgers for the last few weeks, all of them looking good. We wanted to take it to the next level by adding a “Southwestern” twist to it. We started with the very best ground beef: Fresh ground sirloin and blending that with some beef chorizo for 1 pound burgers with a nice blend of…

Krabby Poppers by Patti Fisher

Friends wanted a recipe for appetizers that were fancy and cheap, too. Everyone loves our different kinds of poppers. We’ve stuffed both sweet and jalapeno peppers with all kinds of fillings. Of course, they’re always wrapped with bacon. This time Patti stuffed pretty, sweet peppers with fake crab (aka Surimi, but you can use real…

Sirloin Soft Tacos by Ken & Patti Fisher

Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on the grill but sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme. Wood burning stove, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a little wine, or…

Chicken Tenders by Foooooooood

Makes about five or six chicken tenders. I usually make marinade first and leave chicken in it for about 15 minutes, or as long as it takes to get everything else ready. I feel this is adequate time, though some may wish to leave it in longer. For those who prefer spicy food, add 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper or cayenne pepper…
