Here goes:
Curry Chicken Casserole
1 whole chicken / split down breast
/ smoke on outdoor grill with charcoal and pecan wood about 15 minutes.
Bring inside and cover with curry
powder to the extent you like curry (I went light for Supper Club) and bake
however you normally bake chicken. I cook in a Pampered chef ceramic baker with
a lid / 325 degrees / with a tiny amount of water in the bottom / cook for 2
hours. Do not lift lid. It falls off the bones, which makes deboning and
shredding easier.
1 large bag frozen corn, thawed
(You can blacken it in a skillet if you wish)
4 cups cooked rice
2 large onions chopped and
caramelized
½ large bag shredded cheese –
whatever flavor you prefer
1 package Ramen noodles (uncooked)
broken up
Shred or chop the chicken
Mix all ingredients with 1 can
cream of mushroom soup and heat in oven on 350 for long enough to melt cheese.
Spicy Pimento Cheese Sandwiches
20 sandwiches
Pimento cheese is a comfort food,
people have strong opinions about it, and the flavor ranges from rather sweet
to mustardy dill. Experiment.
2 pounds cheese*, grated
2 blocks cream cheese room temp
2 large jars pimento or other
roasted red pepper, well drained and chopped
1 cup mayo (only if needed for
spread-ability) added at the end to get correct consistency.
1 Tbsp. Cayenne pepper – to taste
2 tsp. onion powder
Crumbled Bacon optional / use 1 package
*Cheese used is most often
Velveeta, mild cheddar or Colby. Grind or grate it fresh, for some reason the
pre-grated cheeses don't make nearly as good a spread. Combine all ingredients
thoroughly. A 16 to 20 ounce sandwich loaf will yield 9 double sandwiches or 36
tea sandwiches.
Orange Cilantro Rice Chicken
Casserole
One full, small bottle orange
extract
One bunch Cilantro
One chicken smoked and baked
2 small bags almond pieces
1 stick real, unsalted butter

the extract in the water mixture
Chop the chicken while rice is
cooking
Chop the leafy parts of the
Cilantro
Put all ingredients in large bowl
while rice still warm and mix in the butter. It will melt while you mix.
Put in large tin pan (lasagna pan)
coated with non-stick cooking spray.
Heat when ready to eat.
Cut ingredients by half to fit 9 x
13 casserole dish.
