Shish Kebab Marinade

Combine in a bowl or zip lock bag. Let meat sit in marinade for overnight or a whole day in advance. At least four hours! J

1 cup olive oil

1/3 cup lemon juice

½ cup Dry Red Wine

Salt and Pepper

1 tsp dried Oregano or 1 TBSP fresh

1 TBSP Crushed garlic

2 Bay leaves

I use this for lamb and Pork (up to eight pounds) but I suppose it could be used for chicken. Perhaps substitute white wine instead of red for chicken?!?!?! Something to try….

Parmesan Potatoes

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F .
2. In a bag combine Parmesan cheese, flour, salt and pepper; mix well. Place potatoes in bag and shake to coat.

They are done when golden brown and soft inside.

Drop Biscuits

This recipe has been adapted from Cook’s Magazine. It is easily doubled or more as needed.

1 cup of all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

¼ tsp baking soda

½ tsp sugar

1/8 tsp salt

½ cup buttermilk

4 Tbsps butter (melted and cooled)

Mix dry ingredients together in a bowl.

Mix buttermilk and melted cooled butter in separate bowl and let it sit for a bit. It will look lumpy after sitting for a few minutes.

Combine them together with as little stirring as possible.

Use a ¼ cup scoop and drop them onto parchment paper.

Cook in a 475 degree oven for 12 to 14 minutes.

When they come out, brush with some melted butter and a sprinkling of fine salt.

Light and fluffy they are! :)
