Orange Julius!!!!!!! MMMMMM


Ever since I can remember my brother Richard has been obsessed with finding THE Orange Julius recipe. We would buy the powdered Orange smoothie mix in hopes it would satisfy his fix, but it never did. The other day he came over so excited that FINALLY after about 14 years he has found THE perfect Orange Julius copy recipe. He was right it was fantastic!!! Especially with some alcohol in the evening, mmmm. The kids LOVED it, minus the vodka of course.
Anyway, just a warning... The recipe calls for 6oz of OJ concentrate but we bought the 12oz and used that, it came out pretty gross then we realized we used twice as much so we doubled the whole recipe it then was PERFECT.
Here you go.... Richards 14 year quest of finding the perfect Orange Julius has come to an end and all the work was done now you can just enjoy:

6 oz. frozen orange juice concentrate
1 cup milk
1 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
10 or so ice cubes

1. Combine all ingredients except ice cubes in blender.
2. Blend for about 1-2 minutes, adding ice cubes one at a time.

    Use 1/4 cup of sugar for a less intense OJ!

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!!!!
