Ok Stacey...Just for you. I Love Cheesy Bread or Olive Cheesy Bread

Soooo, I made this as one of the Appies at Owen's 1st birthday and I got a few requests for it then, but I also brought it to Karen's house for Terentieff Tuesday and Stacey hasn't forgotten about this lusciously delicious fellow. So this is for Stacy and anyone else who needs an easy and tasty little appetizer.


The Cast of Characters:
French bread
6 oz green olives
6 oz black olives
2green onions
1 stick butter softened
1/2 cup real or low fat (not fat-free) mayonnaise
3/4 pound Monterey Jack Cheese.

1. Place one regular-sized can of black olives on a cutting board. (Mine said "6 oz. Dry Wt."), Do the same with a 6-oz jar of pimiento-stuffed green olives Give them a rough chop.
2. Slice 2 green onions into thin pieces then give them a nice rough chop all over
3. Place 1 stick softenend butter into a mixing bowl.
4. Add 1/2 cup mayonnaise. Please do NOT hurl if you don’t like mayonnaise; I promise, you won’t even know it’s there.
5. Take 3/4 pound grated Monterey Jack cheese and add it to the bowl.
6. Now add the olives and green onions and stir it all together until thoroughly combined. Use immediately or refrigerate mixture up to two days before using.
7. Slice the loaf of French bread lengthwise.
8. Spread the mixture evenly onto both halves of the bread It’ll look like WAY too much…but don’t worry. It’ll melt and gradually flatten and soak nicely into the bread.
9. 325 degrees for 25 minutes, or until cheese is totally melted and the top is beginning to turn light brown.

Flank Steak

Ok, I love me some flank steaks!!! The only thing one must understand is that this cut of meat is tougher than others, so really a perfect flank steak is cooked medium rare and sliced on a diagonal. Prepared this way, marinated, cooked quickly at high heat, thinly sliced, flank steak practically melts in your mouth. I put it over salad just to pretend we are healthy, but really it can be paired with anything. Enjoy INGREDIENTS Marinade Ingredients 1/3 cup olive oil 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar 1/3 cup soy sauce 1/4 cup honey 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Other ingredients 2 pounds flank steak Kosher salt Freshly ground pepper 1 Score the surface of the steak with 1/4 inch deep knife cuts, about an inch apart, across the grain of the meat. Combine the marinade ingredients. Place steak and marinade ingredients in a large freezer bag. Coat the steak well with the marinade. Seal the bag and place in a bowl. Chill and marinate for at least 2 hours and up to ov...

Thanks to Amy....Pumpkin Pecan Swirl Bread

It's so nice to have friends around you that really love food, but more importantly know how much I love food because then you get to go on a playdate and have them give you food!!! This is how I discovered this heavenly bread. Amy walked up to me and the boys and hands me a few pieces of this obscenely delicious bread, I immediately shoved a piece down my throat and couldn't believe how delicious it was!!!! I kept telling her how good it was. She herself was impressed. I made the bread the next day, and everyone loves it!!! 2 loaves are almost gone. This recipe does make 2 loaves, and it is quite easy, the hardest part really is just waiting for it to rise, and even that is a pretty short wait time for bread. Please make this and ENJOY!!!!
