Grasshopper Ice Cream Pie

I know you read the title and let me go ahead and inform you it DOES NOT contain actual grasshoppers. Sorry to disappoint...I know I was kind of let down. Whatever the case, actual grasshoppers or not, it is a incredibly easy and super amazing 4 ingredient dessert.

Grasshopper Pie

Ingredients:

Mint Ice Cream (if you aren't in Texas and don't have Blue Bell I'm sorry but whatever you do have will have to work)
8 oz Whipped Cream
Mint Oreo's (something I had never tried until I made this and they are great!)
Hot fudge sauce or chocolate shell (I used the chocolate shell and it was INCREDIBLE)
Oreo Crust

Directions:

Put your ice cream into your shell. (You're going to want to soften it and use a warm metal spoon or rubber spatula to spread it around the shell evenly)
Top with a layer of mint Oreo's
Cover with whipped cream
Sprinkle crushed mint Oreo's over the top.
Drizzle with either hot fudge or chocolate shell.

Seriously guys, that's it. It's definitely one for mint and chocolate lovers (which I am). It's five ingredients and like 3 minutes of work. Come on! Who doesn't love a simple dessert?

Until next time

Chicken Tagine

:In the previous post I mentioned making this a traveling food blog and this is another recipe that backs up the fact that I should probably do that. Tagine, or tajine, is a North African dish. It's namesake is the pot in which it's cooked in. However, if that were the entire truth in this case it would be called like "Dutch Oven Chicken Legs" and that doesn't sound nearly as cool. Chicken Tagine with Couscous Ingredients: Tagine: 4 chicken legs salt and pepper, as needed 3 TBSP olive oil 3 large yellow onions, sliced 2 TBSP ground coriander 1 tsp black (or white) ground pepper 2 tsp ground ginger 2 tsp ground turmeric (not going to lie to you, if you've never worked with turmeric just know that it stains EVERYTHING!) 1 1/2 C chicken stock 1 preserved lemon, sliced(the instructions and ingredients for this will be listed next) 1 TBSP finely chopped parsley (for garnish, I used green onion because it's my favorite thing ev...

Garlic Knots

I LOVE making bread. Any and all kinds of breads. I started making breads the artisan way before using a stand mixer because A: I didn't have stand mixer and 2: I just wanted to be able to say that I can make bread from scratch by hand. So without further adieu... Garlic Knots Ingredients: garlic- about like maybe 3 cloves...? (vampire repellent) parsley (amateur chefs go to garnish) 1 1/2 tsp garlic salt (or just garlic powder and salt) 1 1/2 tsp sugar 1 stick of butter 1 1/2 C water (warm or hot. As long as it's not cold. The heat helps the yeast to activate) 1 pkg yeast 3 3/4 C bread flour 2 tsp salt 2 2/3 tbsp Olive Oil 1/4 C grated Parmesan cheese Directions: Add flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Mix. Add warm water and 2 tbsp of olive oil. Beat until dough forms ball. Kneed. Grease a large bowl with remaining olive oil. Place dough in bowl and cover. Let rise for 90 min or until doubled. (Or however long. Technically it...

Raspberry Chipotle Salmon

This is a dish I made for a contest my school was holding. We had to use a Raspberry Chipotle sauce from Fischer and Weiser. I made Top 10 finalists with this dish! I served it with asparagus and mashed potatoes and I'll give the recipe/ingredients for that too. Raspberry Chipotle Glazed Grilled Salmon Ingredients: Salmon filets (however many you require) a bundle of asparagus (or two) potatoes (for mashing) Fischer and Weiser Raspberry Chipotle sauce 3 cloves garlic-chopped or g lemon-zested and juiced 1 C any kind of fruity wine (I used Arbor Mist Mango and Strawberry) 3 TBSP butter (plus more for your potatoes) green onions or chives cream or milk 2 TBSP vegetable oil salt and pepper to taste Directions: (These steps aren't necessarily in order. You'll want to reorder them because you don't want one side being colder than the rest. Time management and all.) Starting with the potatoes you're going to want to peel them and wash t...
