I know, I know, haven't been on here for a month of Sundays, but real life (RL) sure can take up time!!!! But, got this yesterday and decided to share here as well, it............
This sounded too good to NOT try.....I know it will freeze so make it, eat what you want, freeze and eat the rest at another time.
BTW If I don't have all the ingredients I am going to "fake" it, I don't have a green pepper on hand so no green pepper...tomorrow's supper:-)

Chili Cheese Pie
ABOUT THIS RECIPE
"This a quick and easy favorite in our house. You will need either one large
casserole dish or two small ones. The long kind (9x6, I think) will hold the
whole recipe."
INGREDIENTS
1 (8 1/2 ounce) boxes Jiffy cornbread mix
1 egg
3 teaspoons sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 (15 ounce) cans prepared chili ( any brand is fine. I use the Wal-Mart brand)
2 cups shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup mild salsa
1 large onion, minced
1 green bell pepper, diced small
1 can chickpeas, drained
2 slices butter ( 3 if you have to use two casserole dishes)
DIRECTIONS
1. Mix egg, sugar, milk and cornbread mix.
2. The box may call for less milk but a half cup makes the batter loose enough for this recipe.
3. Butter your casserole dish and pour in batter. Set it aside.
4. Mix onion, bell peppers, chickpeas, salsa, chili and half the cheese and spoon on top of the corn
bread batter.
5. Top with the rest of the cheese.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until the cheese is browning and bubbling.
What’s so great about frozen water? Plenty! From preventing sauces from curdling to getting wrinkles out of your clothing, ice cubes are a great addition to your DIY arsenal. Click through to check out some creative and interesting ways to use ice cubes.
Food & Entertaining.
1. Stop Curdling in its Tracks. Curdled sauces can be salvaged — it’s a miracle! Drop an ice cube into your egg-based sauce and stir it around immediately after you see the sauce start to curdle.
2. Serve Ice Without the Hassle. At your next party, serve ice in a colander that is placed inside of a large bowl. No need to go bobbing for ice cubes.
3. Reheat Rice with Ease. All too often, rice dries out when it’s reheated in the microwave. Remedy that by putting a few ice cubes on top of the bowl before you nuke it.
4. Take Your Salad Dressing to the Next Level. If you want your dressing to be creamier, put it in a sealable plastic container with an ice cube. Seal tightly, shake well and enjoy!
The mixture is 1 tsp. Dawn dishwashing detergent 3-4 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide couple tablespoons of baking soda. Scrub on with a scrubbing brush.
I put this in the oven for 9 minutes, usually 375 degrees and it is good....refine it how you like it!!!!
Grilled Chicken Flatbread Pizzas
By chris and her whisk on June 15, 2008 ABOUT THIS RECIPEPrep Time: 5 mins
Total Time: 7 mins
Serves: 4-6, Yield: 4.0 flatbread pizzas
"This is an excellent way to enjoy your gas grill, use up some leftovers and cook up something beautiful and delicious in just a few minutes. Great for the day after a barbecue party when you discovered you made too much of something! This one is leftover grilled chicken, but I think it would work with any leftover grilled meat (except, perhaps, hot dogs). I made this today for lunch, after we finished, my daughter said it would have been better with some fresh basil, so I have added that to the ingredients."
INGREDIENTS
4 flat bread ( you can use thin pita bread)
1 1/2 cups of sliced leftover grilled chicken
1/2 cup sun-dried tomato packed in oil, coarsely chopped
6 leaves fresh basil, coarsely chopped
3 cups grated mozzarella cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
DIRECTIONS
Heat the grill. Mix all the ingredients together (except the bread) in a bowl. Use your hands. It's easier.
Turn the heat to low on your grill. Lay the flat breads on (high rack if you have one). Mound the mixture on the flat bread, spreading to the edges. Close the grill and give it a minute or two, When it is melted, it's done. (If you leave it on too long, the bread will burn).
Put it on a bread board and cut it with a pizza cutter.
20 oz. can pineapple chunks or tidbits, drained well
11 oz. can mandarin oranges, drained well
2 bananas, sliced
INSTRUCTIONS
Combine pudding mix, milk and orange juice concentrate in a mixing bowl.
Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes and then fold in the Cool Whip. Gently mix in the fruit and chill in the fridge for 2-3 hours until ready to serve.
Feel free to add more fruit. I often add more oranges or bananas, and sometimes I add strawberries and mini marshmallows too. Enjoy!
*We’ve made this recipe dozens of times with successful results, yet we’ve gotten several comments that the salad is too soupy. So, our advice is to reduce the milk to ¾ cups initially, and if the consistency is to your liking, feel free to add more.
I have a recipe SIMILAR to this one, no bananas and it is scrumptious! Going to have this tomorrow nite!!!!
2 cups chopped apples
1 1/2 lemons, juiced
1/4 cup chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup seedless grapes, halved
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 green onions, chopped
Directions
1. In a bowl, toss together the apples, lemon juice, celery, walnuts, raisins, and grapes.
2. In another bowl, fold together the yogurt and mayonnaise. Add to salad and mix well.
4 cups cooking oil, for frying (canola, vegetable)
For the Garlic Butter Sauce:
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 medium garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
For the Seasoning Blend:
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 teaspoon Creole or Cajun seasoning
Peel potatoes and cut into 3/4 inch cubes, holding in a bowl of cool water. For garlic butter sauce, melt butter in a medium saucepan, add oil and garlic and simmer until garlic is tender; set aside to cool. Once cool, stir in chopped parsley. Combine seasoning blend in a separate bowl; set aside.
Drain potatoes and transfer to a saucepan, covering with fresh water. Bring to a boil and boil only until slightly tender, about 10 minutes; drain.
Preheat oven to 175 degrees F. Heat oil in a large, deep, heavy pot. Add the potatoes, frying in batches, and turning to brown evenly, for 3 to 4 minutes. Right as they come out of the fryer, transfer to paper towels, sprinkling each batch lightly with a pinch of the seasoning blend. Transfer potatoes to serving platter and place into warm oven, about 20 minutes, while you prepare the rest of the meal. Add any remaining seasoning to the garlic butter sauce, add potatoes to the saucepan and toss. Return to serving platter and serve immediately.
Cook's Notes: Cubing and boiling the potatoes in advance is a good timesaver when preparing this dish, as they can be held in an airtight container in the fridge for a day or two until you're ready to fry and finish them.
This has to be easy and good too! Cooked chicken similar in the 60's:-)

ABOUT THIS RECIPE
"I love my brother's grilled chicken and for years, he would never give up the recipe. I finally whined him to death so here it is. I don't think he wanted me to know how easy it is to make. Marinates overnight."
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup Italian dressing
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
2 cloves minced garlic
4 -6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
DIRECTIONS
In a bowl, add the Italian dressing, teriyaki sauce and minced garlic; stir to combine.
Add the chicken breast halves; cover and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
Grill over hot coals for approximately 10 minutes on each side or until juices run clear.
"This makes a big 13x9 pan of brownies, using a brownie box mix. Super easy and looks gormet when you are done! (Be sure to buy the box mix that says that it makes a 13x9 recipe or you'll have problems.) The mix I use is by Betty Crocker."
Prepare the brownie mix according to package directions (water, oil, eggs).
Pour into a greased 13x9-inch baking pan.
Beat cream cheese with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
Add sugar and mix. Add vanilla and egg; mix until well-blended.
Place cheese mixture in dolups over the whole pan, leaving some brownie showing inbetween.
Cut or swirl through batter several times with a knife or fork for a marbled effect. It can be tricky to get a good marble effect so be careful not to over work it.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Cool; cut into squares. (These will also freeze well).
