Chili Cheese Hot Dog Bubble Up Bake

Chili Cheese Hot Dog Bubble Up Bake,  buttery cut up pillows of dough and bite size hot dogs layered together with creamy, gooey cheese and chili with beans.  Garnish with your favorite condiments, and you have America's classic Friday night football food rolled up in a casserole. When my children were in school, Friday Nights were hot dog nights.  We had to be back up at the school soon after they came home, so that meant supper had to be something quick to eat much less quick to make.  Most Friday nights we ate Baked Hot Dogs just like I use to eat on Friday nights when I was in high school.  Hot dogs are classic and preparing them ready to grab and go is the perfect food for our game night. Chili Cheese Hot Dog Bubble Up has four main ingredients plus the ingredients for garnishing.  My children growing up this Chili Cheese Hot Dog Bubble Up bake would have been a huge hit.

Southern Fried Whole Catfish

Southern Fried Whole Catfish,  a delicious authentic Southern dish.  The catfish is well coated with seasoned cornmeal and flour mixture, then deep fried in hot oil until crispy, crunchy delicious.   Summer is closing down, and in the past years by this time, we have fried catfish at least two or three times.  But as the years go by they are few and far between.   It is just so much easier to go to our favorite catfish restaurant and buy a fried catfish dinner.  And we have excellent restaurants now that serve some delicious catfish.

Slow Roasted Fresh Strawberries

Slow Roasted Fresh Strawberries, fresh strawberries sprinkled generously with sugar, and lightly with salt and pepper, baked slowly until the strawberries release their juices and slightly caramelize.  These strawberries go brilliantly in all kinds of desserts. One of my favorite things about summer is all the fresh fruit in the grocery stores.  I  almost always tend to buy more than we can eat, that including fresh strawberries, and I wait until the last minute to use them up before they spoil.   This summer I started slow roasting half of the strawberries when I buy them.  I like to roast them whole instead of slicing them.  The berries hold their shape well while roasting coming out plump and luscious.
