Quick Flat Roast Chicken

Flat Roast Chicken is sometimes called spatchcock chicken which is simply butterflied chicken.  The backbone is removed, and the chicken is easily roasted in a small amount of time.    ROAST CHICKEN Cut the cooking time in half while still getting a crispy, moist chicken with my Flat Roast Chicken recipe. One of my favorite go-to meals that stretches our dollars and makes my meal planning a lot friendlier!  Roasting a whole chicken is very easy to prepare.  But for a speedy way to roast a whole chicken , I like to cut the backbone and lay the whole chicken flat.

BBQ Ranch Stuffed Eggs

This recipe comes from Melissa d'Arabian the winner of season five of "The Next Food Network Stars".  I immediately wanted to make these BBQ Ranch Stuffed Eggs as soon as I saw her making them on her new show Ten Dollar Dinners.  A quick, inexpensive appetizer, and a great twist on an already family favorite. My tip for the perfect boiled eggs 1.  Always put a single layer of eggs in a saucepan and do not crowd.  If eggs are cold from the refrigerator fill the pot with cold water.  If the eggs are from the counter or at room temperature fill the pot with room temperature water. 2.  Bring water to a boil and boil for 3 minutes.  3.  Remove pot from the burner.  Put a lid on the pot and let set undisturbed for 15 minutes.   4.  Pour water off of the eggs holding the lid to keep eggs from falling out. 5.  With the eggs still in the pot gently shake them against the sides of the pan and up and down to crack the shell around the hot eggs. 6.  Pu

Very Simplistic Bread Pudding {Granny's Recipe}

My Mother always cooked exceptionally great food with few ingredients, and her Very Simplistic Bread Pudding was no exception. OLD FASHIONED SOUTHERN BREAD PUDDING There are no special ingredients or fussy techniques to make bread pudding.  This is a dessert that was born out of hard times to use every little bit of leftover bread.  And has become a beloved dessert of the South. Growing up, I never thought of this dessert as a no-frills dessert, just a delicious, comforting dessert that makes you look forward to leftover rolls, breakfast toast, and any stale bread in the bread box.
