This quick and easy Halloween treat starts with boxed brownie mix. The brownie mix is prepared according to the package directions. Then vanilla is added to the batter with mini chocolate chips, chopped walnuts and sprinkles. Next the brownie batter is spread into a baking dish and baked. When the brownies are cooled, icing or candy melts are drizzled on top of the brownies. Then sprinkles are added before the icing sets. The brownies are cooled completely before cutting. These brownies are a delicious Halloween treat for your trick-or-treaters.
This pressure cooker recipe is a delicious Sunday dinner or easy enough for a weeknight meal. Onions sauté in the pressure cooker before adding carrots and cubed beef. Then pepper, garlic powder, paprika, beef seasoning, salt, tomato sauce, a bay leaf and beef stock are added. Next the beef mixture cooks on high pressure for 45 minutes. The bay leaf is removed and rice is added with a halved garlic head then cooked for another 15 minutes. After the pressure is released the garlic is removed and the rice is fluffed before serving.
A quote, a comic and a plan
“I’m going to break one of the rules of the trade here. I’m going to tell you some of the secrets of improvisation. Just remember—it’s always a good idea to follow the directions exactly the first time you try a recipe. But from then on, you’re on your own.” – James Beard
Sometimes, you have to try a recipe to realize how to change it to your liking. I change a lot of what I cook, I look at the original recipe for inspiration, then tweak things from there. Sometimes it’s a small changes, sometimes it’s a drastic change. But I’m always willing to try a new recipe and I hope you will too!
