Deep Fried Pizza Tortellinis
* Warning: these are very addicting. Ingredients: 1 – bag cheese tortellini’s 1 – Cup breadcrumbs ( I used plain) 2 – eggs 1 -Cup Mozzarella cheese 10-15 pepperonis ( diced into small pieces OR you could buy a pack of the mini pepperonis) Directions: * I use a deep frying pan to fry these.

Monster Chocolate Chip Cookies
// Sometimes it’s just fun to eat an obnoxiously big cookie. These cookies are just that! There is no rule that says you HAVE to make them this big, but why wouldn’t you? Sometimes you have to break the rules and make big cookies =P I have been experimenting with these cookies a lot! Here is what I discovered.. If you bake them on an air-bake cookie sheet they get flat, still good, but flat. If you bake them on a dark cookie sheet that is NOT an air-bake they get more on the fluffy side. So it is up to you, do you like flat cookies or fluffy cookies?…

Hugy Grannies Flash Fried Chicken with a KICK
// Today I am spicing up an old family recipe. This recipe comes from my Hugy Granny, which is my Grams, great grams recipe. I am not sure how they came about the spelling of her name, but it is pronounced like HOOD – G then put it together, Hugy. Now, that is not her real name, but it is what everyone called her. From what I gather, she was a tiny woman, and the family called her little Granny. My gram was a toddler at the time, and when she tried to say little Granny, it came out Hugy Granny, and the name stuck. Now decades later, the name still stands.…
