Lunchbox Pizza Quesadilla
These are made just like any other quesadilla or grilled cheese sandwich. Spray the bottom of a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and preheat. When the pan is fairly hot place 1 Flour Tortilla in the pan. Fairly quickly (because you want to get everything on before the bottom starts to brown) spread on a few tablespoons of sauce. Then add a layer of Pepperoni (and anything else you like). Then top with shredded cheese. Top it off with the 2nd Flour Tortilla. Just like any other quesadilla or grilled cheese let it brown then flip it over. If all of the cooking spray was absorbed you can spray on a little more but you usually don't need to. After both sides are browned and the insides are hot and melted take the \"pizzas\" out to cool. Once cooled slice in 1/4 like a pizza and wrap snugly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Tips and Ideas. My son is not super picky so I made these in batches and freeze and then take them out the morning of school and pop into his lunchbox. It is usually thawed and yummy by lunch time. If you freeze them you need to let the cool completely first the wrap them separately in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil to prevent ice crystals from forming.

Honey Bun Cake
1. Preheat oven to 325*F. 2. In a large mixing bowl combine cake mix oil eggs and sour cream. Stir by hand approximately 50 strokes or until most large lumps are gone. Pour half of the batter into an ungreased 9x13 inch glass baking dish. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over the batter in the cake pan. Spoon the other half of the batter into the cake pan covering the brown sugar and cinnamon. Twirl the cake with a butter knife or icing knife until it looks like a honey bun (or whatever design you want to make). 3. Bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Frost cake while it is still fairly hot. Serve warm. 4. To Make the frosting: In a small bowl whisk together the confectioner's sugar milk and vanilla until smooth. My Note: I make a few changes though. I make mine in a bundt pan. I sprinkle some of the topping on the bottom of the pan and then put in some of the batter and then sprinkle some more topping and then more batter and then top with the rest of the topping. It makes a beautiful presentation. Extremely moist and tasted great. I did play with it to make a few substitutions. I made the cake batter from scratch (2 1/3 Celsius flour 1 tbl. baking powder 3/4 teaspoons salt 1 1/2 Celsius white sugar & 1/2 Celsius shortening. Sift together dry ing. & add shortening until crumbly in nature. Then follow the recipe as is). Added 1 tsp of vanilla & 1/2 tsp of brandy extract to the batter. Reduced the brown sugar to 3/4 cups. Halved the icing & added 1/4 tsp of brandy extract to that as well. I'm not big on glaze & only ended up using about 3/4 of what I made. I served it warm & ended up eating seconds which I never do. It was easy to make & I loved the taste. This is the cake to make when you're craving something sweet & satisfying. (I also made mine in a greased and floured bundt pan -- which I highly recommend). The baking time is the same for both pans. However you will have about twice as much glaze as you need if you use a bundt pan.

Ed's Chicago Garbage Cookies (Amaretto)
** SOAKING DATES AND RAISINS: For best results soak the raisins and dates in the amaretto and water for 24 hours or up to a week or more in a glass or plastic container with an airtight lid. (Trust me. This is worth it!) . HARDWARE: 2 cookie sheets (the 13 x 9 inch variety or larger) BAKING PARCHMENT! IT TOTALLY RULES! A big 'ol wooden spoon. (a new spoon is also fine) An ice cream scoop or a really strong metal tablespoon (or both) A \"REALLY BIG\" GLASS or METAL BOWL (You can also use a KitchenAid-type mixer.). DIRECTIONS- **IF YOU ADD EVERYTHING AT ONCE IT WILL BE REALLY HARD TO MIX SO PLEASE USE THE INGREDIENT SEPARATIONS I'VE LISTED BELOW: CREAM SOFTENED BUTTER AND COMBINE WITH BROWN SUGAR. THEN ADD EGGS and vanilla extract. MIX WELL THEN ADD salt baking soda and slowly mix in the flour . MIX THE DOUGH UNTIL EVERYTHING IS COMBINED . THEN ADD: maple syrup (a few squirts from the syrup bottle is fine) peanut butter and slowly mix in the Rolled/Quick Oats. MIX WELL THEN FOLD IN (don't over mix) the RAISIN DATE and AMARETTO/water* mixture. (*only use water if you soaked the dates and raisins). Add butterscotch and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Refrigerate the dough for at least an hour. MAKES ABOUT 3 QUARTS OF COOKIE DOUGH. ARE YOU READY TO BAKE COOKIES?. PREHEAT THE OVEN TO 350 °F. (use an oven thermometer in your oven to make sure your oven is at 350). Line your cookie sheet with the baking parchment. TRUST ME YOU WANT TO USE BAKING PARCHMENT. NO GREASING NECESSARY (if you don't have parchment paper you can do the greasing thing on your cookie sheet). With a good metal tablespoon or icecream scoop Scoop out golfball size balls of dough and place them about an inch and a half apart or more on the sheet. You can fit about 9-12 cookies on each sheet. Keep the unused dough cold until you're ready to use it. (the warmer the dough is the more it will spread out). If you're waiting for the first batch to bake refrigerate the unused dough. You'll be much happier with the results. Bake 18 to 20 minutes for soft 22-24 minutes for crispy. (times are approximate). Perfect cookies are light golden brown and just barely golden brown around the edges. ** ALL OVENS ARE DIFFERENT! WATCH YOUR COOKIES! **. DO NOT LEAVE THE KITCHEN! DO NOT LEAVE THE HOUSE! DO NOT LEAVE ON VACATION WHILE THESE ARE BAKING! ** VERY IMPORTANT! : AFTER BAKING SLIDE THE PARCHMENT FULL OF COOKIES OFF THE PAN VERY GENTLY ONTO A COOLING RACK OR TABLE COUNTER TOP ETC. *DO NOT TAKE COOKIES OFF THE PARCHMENT until they set up!*. The soft cookies will be VERY FRAGILE right out of the oven so wait about 3-5 minutes before removing them from the parchment. After they cool a bit they will slide right off the parchment paper. When the cookies are done keep them in an airtight container or ziploc bag. DON'T EAT THEM ALL! SAVE SOME FOR ME!

Peach, Vanilla, Ricotta & Raspberry Bruschetta - New Zealand
For the ricotta combine all the ingredients in a food processor or cake mixer. Process or whisk until smooth and shiny (about 5-8 minutes). The ricotta can be refrigerated at this stage and kept for 1 or 2 days but do allow it to come to room temperature and give it a good whisk before serving. For the peaches combine all ingredients except the peaches in a heavy-based saucepan. Score the top of the peaches as you would for blanching a tomato. In a small saucepan just large enough to hold the peaches bring the syrup to the boil then add the peaches. Cover with a piece of greaseproof paper and simmer gently until the skin starts to come away from the fruit (about 5-10 minutes depending on the ripeness). Remove the peaches from the syrup with a slotted spoon and plunge into iced water to cool. Reduce the syrup by a third over a rapid heat or until thick and glossy. Strain and reserve. Once the peaches are cool gently peel off the skin. If not using right away refrigerate the peaches at this stage. Cut in half remove the seeds and place the peach halves in a single layer on a flat heatproof tray. Spoon a little of the peach syrup over the peaches and grill for 5-8 minutes under a hot grill until slightly caramelised. To assemble smear a thick layer of ricotta on each piece of sourdough. Place 2 peach halves on each. Toss the raspberries in the reserved syrup then divide among the 4 bruschetta (you probably won’t need all the syrup which can be reserved for another use). Top with the mint leaves. Dust each dish with a good amount of icing sugar and serve right away.

Corn Fritters With Crispy Bacon, Roasted Tomatoes & Avocado
Tomatoes& Bacon. Start with the tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 180°C Cut each tomato in half lengthwise. Place on a roasting tray cut side up. Drizzle with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper (and tiny pinch of dried herbs if you fancy). Roast for 20-30 minutes. For the final 10 mins - move the tomatoes to bottom rack and turn the grill on. Lay out your rashers of bacon (suggest 2 per person) onto a grilling rack. Grill until crisp and crunchy turning regularly. Watch carefully to ensure bacon doesnt burn. Ideally bacon should be stiff and can practically be snapped like a biscuit. Remove both bacon and tomatoes and put aside. Turn oven down to 120°C (for keeping Corn fritters warm whilst cooking). Corn Fritters. Place half of the corn kernels and the onion eggs coriander flour baking powder salt and pepper in a food processor (or in a bowl with hand held whizzer) and process until combined. This is an important step! Whizzing the corn up in this way gives the binding agents a distinct corn flavour which I find lacking in other fritters which do not do this. I believe this is one of the secrets that make Bill's fritters so damn good! Place in a large bowl add the remaining corn and stir to combine. Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium to high heat. When the oil is hot drop 2 heaped tablespoons of mixture per sweetcorn cake into the pan and cook in batches of three for 1 minute each side. Drain on paper towels and keep warm in the oven while you are making the rest of the cakes. Serve with the avocado salsa. Avocado salsa. Place all the ingredients in a bowl and stir very gently to combine. Season well. To serve. Create stacks of the various elements in any combination you wish (see picture above).

Mile High Biscuits
Preheat oven to 425*F. Blend dry ingredients together in large bowl. Keep butter in refrigerator until required. Slice butter into 4 or 5 thin sections and place over flour mixture. Cut butter in with a pastry cutter until butter clumps are the size of corn niblets. Pour milk into small bowl; add egg and whisk gently until blended. Make a hollow in centre of flour/butter mixture and pour in milk/egg. Using a large mixing spoon quickly blend all ingredients until a rough ball of dough is formed. The secret is to blend well but not NOT over-work the dough. (I sometimes will just use my hands once I get CLOSE to forming.). Pick the ball up in your hands and gently work the dough with 4-5 hand motions to achieve a well-formed ball. Place the ball on a lightly floured surface and roll out with a lightly floured rolling pin until about 3/4 to 1 inch thickness. Cut biscuits to desired size with a SHARP biscuit cutter. This is another key to a biscuit that will rise nicely with a good shape. Never twist while cutting but cut straight down in one movement otherwise you will 'pinch' the dough which interferes with rising. Place on un-greased cookie sheet and bake for 11-12 minutes. (Check for doneness at 11 minutes. Biscuits should be light gold.). Serve warm - they are yummiest when fresh out of the oven. Allow to cool completely on a rack before storing. These biscuits freeze well and are nice if re-heated gently in the oven (never in the microwave!). If you like cheese biscuits go ahead and add 1/2 cup grated cheese before adding in the milk; chives too! ENJOY. NOTE: For a family member who is diabetic but loves biscuits I modify this recipe to use some soy flour (about 1/3 of the amount) and substitute Splenda for the sugar.

Thyme Biscuits
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Prepare baking sheet with a light coating of cooking spray. Sift together the flours salt sugar baking powder and baking soda. Stir in the thyme. Cut in the butter then take up the flour and roll briskly between the palms of your hands so the mixture has the consistency of coarse cornmeal. This step can also be done in a food processor fitted with the steel blade using the pulse action. Stir the milk and yogurt (or buttermilk) into the mixture. Lightly flour your hands. Using your hands bring the dough together until it forms a lump. Use care in not over keading the dough (as you would with bread) as that will result in hockey pucks not biscuits. It will be slightly sticky that's okay. Again the less you work the dough the lighter your biscuits will be. Roll out to a thickness of about 3/4 inch and cut into squares triangles or rounds. For bite-size biscuits cut into squares then cut the squares diag onally into small triangles. Place on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until they're just lightly browned. Caution the smaller your biscuits the shorter the baking time. Serve warm.

With remaining pot I put the cocoa powder in a beverage container pour the coffee into the container and place it in the refrigerator overnight. In a quart-sized mason jar I put 6-8 pumps of sugar-free Torani syrup (about 1/4 cup) with half & half to taste. Shake beverage container until cocoa powder is mixed into liquid. Pour into mason jar that already contains sugar-free syrup and half & half and enjoy. You will have enough for two days of mochas.

Bake for 5 minutes then rotate the sheet front to back and bake for 5 minutes. The cookies will be flat and golden brown. Transfer the baking sheet to the stove top (off the heat but in a warm place). Let the cookies rest for 2 minutes until they are firm but flexible; then working with one or two at a time wrap the cookies around a handle to form a tubular shape and transfer to a wire rack to set; this should take about 1 minute. When the cookies are crisp the handles can be extracted. Let the cookies cool completely before storing. Repeat with the remaining batter. Store the molded cookies in an airtight container to maintain their crispness.

In a stock pot melt the butter and add the celery green onions and garlic. Cook and stir for several minutes on medium heat until celery begins to become translucent. Add the chicken cook and stir about 5-10 minutes more until chicken is cooked through. Add stock ginger parsley dill and thyme Simmer over medium heat while preparing noodles. Place chilled dough onto floured surface sprinkle flour on top and roll out to about 1/8 inch thickness (may need to add more flour as you go to keep rolling pin from sticking). Using a knife or a pizza cutter slice dough into long strips gently pick up strips and lay them on a dish towel to dry. After about 15-20 minutes cut the strips into desired lengths. I prefer about 1 1/2-2 inches long. Place the noodles into the simmering stock. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until noodles are done. Add the peas and cook an addition 5-10 minutes. If you desire a thicker soup dissolve the 2 Tbsp cornstarch in warm water and stir in to soup. Cook an additional 5 minutes.
