@Moondream I would love the key lime pie recipe, we have a lime tree here overrun with limes.
Click to expand...

Sure! It's super simple and really yummy.

Filling-

1/2 Cup of Lime Juice so you need about 4 or 5 ripe limes. Believe me use your own limes and juice them! They taste S-O much better than store bought juice.
1 14 Ounce can of condensed milk
5 Egg yolks

Crust-

1 1/2 Cups of graham cracker crumbs. (If you use cinnamon graham crackers it makes the crust sweet and cinnamon flavored)
5 Tablespoons of melted butter


1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
2. Break the graham crackers up until they're nice and crumbly
3. Mix the crumbs with the melted butter
4. Press the buttery mixture into a buttered pie pan
5. In a mixing bowl mix the key lime juice, condensed milk, and egg yolks. Make sure it's well beaten. If you'd like you can add a little pulp for a little extra texture and tang
6. Gently pour the mixture over the crust
7. Place in the oven and cook for 15 minutes
8. Eat it hot or cool. It tastes extra good with whip cream on top :D
 
I had a really good chicken pumpkin soup recipe, but it got lost last time I got kicked out of my house. (I had a series of really crappy roommates before moving in with the bf.) But the basic idea was super easy: cook the chicken halfway, put it, some broth, and some seasoning inside the de-seeded pumpkin and bake the whole thing for awhile.

Sea Salt Ice Cream
Sea Salt Ice Cream 120 A+ A- http://www.geekychef.com/2009/01/sea-salt-ice-cream.html
From the Kingdom Hearts II video game I've never made ice cream before, so I did you guys a favor and found this recipe elsewhere. This ice cream mixes the salty taste of sea salt with the sweet tastes of cream and sugar. Apparently, Kingdom Hearts II director Tetsuya Nomura had this ice cream on a trip to the Tokyo Disneyland Resort and liked it so much he decided to work with Disney to put it in the games. The characters of Kingdom Hearts II can often be seen eating and talking about this delicious salty-sweet dessert. Enjoy it with your best buddy at twilight.
Ingredients:
2 eggs
2 c. milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 t. vanilla
1 c. heavy whipping cream
sea salt to taste blue food coloring (optional)
ice pop molds (optional)
Directions: Separate the eggs into two good sized bowls and beat the egg whites until stiff. Mix the egg yolks and sugar until thick. Slowly bring milk to boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Pour hot milk into yolk/sugar mixture, slowly, only a little at time, and mix well. Pour milk/yolk/sugar mixture back into pot and heat on medium until thicker to make a custard. Do not boil. Pour custard in with beaten egg whites and mix well. Add sea salt (keeping adding salt until it tastes salty sweet). Put mixture in fridge to cool. Once cool, add cream, vanilla and coloring to mixture. Freeze, following your ice cream maker’s instructions. If you wish, get some ice pop molds. Spray the inside of these with very little PAM spray (or something similar). Then pour the ice cream into the molds right after it comes out of the ice cream maker. Pop the lid on and the stick in and freeze for at least two hours.

for those who don't have an ice cream maker (I don't) I find it easiest to let it freeze in the fridge for a while, take it out and stir it. wash, rinse, repeat till it takes on the consistency of ice cream

Great Cherry smoothie recipe
You need a blender for this

7 cherries cut in half and de-pitted the cherries for ice cream don't work well as they have waaaay to much sugar for this. (note you can use up to 9 cherries if you want really flavorful smoothie.

1 cup of Greek yogurt unflavored you can use regular yogurt as well.
1/2 a cup of ice about 3 to 4 cubes depending on size

Blend in the blender for 30 sec to a minute. I like mine really really blended.

Its really nice and a healthy snack on a hot day.

Ok, I went to eat and got a veeeery goood one. Plus, it's Mexican! Nirvana ponies will love that for sure XD

Meat/Chicken Homemade Tacos! Taco Tuesday anypony?
I will only list the ingredients but not the amount because some may end up with more meat/chicken than other taco ^^'
- Raw Meat/Chicken
-Wheat tortillas (good for mozzarella quesadillas YUM)
-Lettuce (optional)
-Cream (optional, but they are so good with cream, mostly sour cream)
Directions
-Get a frigging tortilla
-(make sure it's not raw meat) Place meat in the tortilla
-Fold tortilla in half and place in a pan full of hot oil
-Make sure it is hard or well cooked. If you want a soft taco, then take it out immediately after 1 minute
-Prepare taco with cream and stuff
-ENJOY!*

*Disclaimer: This recipe may attract Fluffle Puffs to your house and total loss of your taco. Do not attempt this at home.
 
By the way, if you want delicious tortillas, get some homemade tortillas. The little store at the corner sells DELISHES tortillas that puff up with heat. Also, I haven't tried it yet, but I heard that cheese is delicious on the taco. Mostly them yellow squares for sandwiches. Dang, sadly no more left over tacos from today :(
 
How do you prepare the meat for the Tacos, I love Mexican shredded beef but I cannot ever work out what they put in that so it tastes like what comes from the Mexican Restaurant.
 
I like to use chorizo when I make tacos. It's already spiced and easy to prep. Just cut the skin of the sausage off and cook in a frying pan with lime juice. You do not need to grease the pan as the meat is super greasy and delicious :)
 
This is one I made up myself. Note: The batter will turn purple but bake brown
Winter Twilight Cake
Ingredients
3 ripe bananas well-mashed
2 eggs well beaten
2 cps. Flour
¾ cps. Sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cp coarsely chopped almonds
2 cps. Mashed blackberries
1 can of icing
Blue and red food coloring
Snowflake doilies
Powdered sugar
Directions;
Preheat oven to 350 F, grease a bread loaf pan, mix bananas then the flour, then add the eggs, sugar, salt and baking soda in one large bowl, add the mashed blackberries then the almonds and blend thoroughly until the mix comes to a lovely shade of purple, put the batter in the pan and bake for 1 hour. While waiting for the cake to bake mix the red and blue food coloring into the icing until it comes out the desired shade of purple, place in the fridge. After the cake has been removed and cooled, spread the icing on the cake and carefully lay the doilies on the top of the cake then shake the powdered sugar over the doilies to make the snowflake designs.
 
This one comes from the Northwoods Inn restaurant I'm telling you people this dressing is the bomb!
North Woods Inn
Blue Cheese Buttermilk Dressing
1 Cup buttermilk
1 Cup sour cream
3 Cloves garlic
1/8 Teaspoon sugar
1/4 Teaspoon Hungarian sweet paprika
1 Teaspoon salt
3 Tablespoons blue cheese
In a food processor or heavy-duty blender, combine buttermilk, sour cream, garlic, sugar, paprika, and salt. Blend until smooth. Add blue cheese, and pulse quickly once or twice. Do not blend. You want small chunks of blue cheese.
Refrigerate 4 hours or more before serving to let flavors blend.
Yield: About 1-1/3 cups

I dont put anything in it, because I live near Mexico, so it already has that Mexican taste! lol. Maybe some drops of lemon or a drop of barbecue sauce. That gives it some flavor too

Usually I stew beef till very soft and mash it with a fork, I usually add Salt, Pepper, Cumin, paprika and some chili flakes, I shall try lemon juice as well. I really wish I could recreate the Mexican Restaurant shredded beef taste. There is an ingredient there I cannot work out. I wonder if @Peppermint Truly would know since she is from Mexico. :D
 
Here's a few family recipes for some yummers Native American dishes. My aunt has these posted on several webpages, she's a recipe writing fool. I guess it's a good way to share our food with non Indian folk. We love to spread our culture!

Note that fry bread is often an NA staple. Many NAs are poor, and live on reservations and are quite often dependent on food packages provided by local churches or government commodities. These usually have staples like flour, powdered milk and cooking oil, so fry bread is a staple to many Indian households. It's cheap, easy to make and keeps without refrigeration for days.
Most tribes have a slightly different way of preparing their fry bread. This particular type is of the Choctaw and Chickasaw People, and is what I grew up on.

2 cups sifted flour
1/2 tsp. salt
4 tsp. baking powder
1 egg
1/2 cup warm milk

Stir first three ingredients then stir in the beaten egg. Add milk to make the dough soft. Roll it out on floured bread board, knead lightly. Roll dough out to 1/2 inch thick. Cut into strips 2 X 3 inches and slit the center. Drop into hot cooking oil and brown on both sides. Serve hot.

We often like to pile meat, cheese and lettuce on these and call them Indian Tacos. :lolpony:

Here's a fall fave, and goes with our Halloween theme, Pumpkin Fry Bread. Sprinkle it with powdered sugar or a dollop of whipping cream! So yummy!

Pumpkin Fry Bread

2 cups fresh pumpkin or 1-16oz. can pumpkin
1 tbsp. milk or water
3/4 cups brown sugar
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. vanilla

Drop into hot cooking oil and brown on both sides. Serve hot with butter or powdered sugar.

Fry bread is delicious with chilis and soups. Since someone just mentioned vegetarian dishes in the chatbox, here is a popular recipe (not my aunt Nonie's but a popular NA one) for meatless chili.

Meatless chili


1 cup dried pinto or kidney beans
3 cups water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 cups chopped onion
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 cups chopped tomatoes
1 6-ounce can no-salt added tomato paste
3/4 cup water
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
1 bay leaf

Place beans and 3 cups of water in saucepan. Bring to boil and cook 2 minutes. Do not drain. Set aside for 1 hour, then return beans to heat, adding water to cover if necessary. Simmer for 1 hour, or until beans are tender. Drain and set aside.

Heat oil in a large, deep skillet or stockpot over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper. Cook until onion is translucent. Add beans and remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. Remove bay leaf before serving.

If you like these, I'll add some more Indian recipes. I have some delicious squash recipes somewhere!
