POTATOES IN FOIL ON THE GRILL

A very simple recipe that many probably have their own version of, but wanted to share anyway.  And record, too, I guess.

Ingredients:
8 medium potatoes
2 small onions
8 tsp butter
2 tsp minced garlic
Lawry's Seasoning Salt
Garlic Salt
Onion Salt
Pepper

Wash and cut potatoes into wedges, taking out any bad spots.  Cut onions into slices.  Pile potatoes and onions on to a large piece of foil.  Spoon butter onto potatoes in different spots.  Also spoon minced garlic onto potatoes.  Sprinkle with seasonings.  Mix around to get everything covered in spices.  You could also add olive oil instead of butter, but I didn't think of that today.


Turn up sides to make a kind of bowl/container and add more foil to the top.  Seal all sides.


Cook on grill for about an hour or until potatoes are done.

Serve hot with butter, seasonings, sour cream, gravy, ketchup, etc. Whatever your family prefers.  Jesse and the kids mash them up and put sour cream on them.  I like to dunk them in ketchup like fries.

PEANUT BUTTER RICE KRISPIE BARS My mother always put peanut butter into her Rice Krispie bars. When I made them when I was older I had to guess each time how much.  I finally figured out what worked and wrote it down so it wasn't a guessing game. People compliment me on these all the time when I bring them places.  They are not as cloyingly sweet as some Rice Krispie bars can be.  First, I always use the original Kellogg's Rice Krispie bar recipe, never a generic version.  The other versions tend to have the same amount of marshmallows, more butter,  but less rice krispies making them sweeter (to me, anyway).  I don't care what brand of rice krispies I use, I buy whatever is cheapest, but it has to be the original Kellogg recipe.  Second, I always add the peanut butter. They are just so much better that way! Because of the peanut butter, when I bring them places, I always tell people there is peanut butter in them (or label them) becaus...

Jesse & have been married for 19 years and counting and have lived together for 22 years now.  We were 18 & 20 years old when we started out and learned a lot about life, love and other things along the way.  We have two kids - Jaqi, age 18 and JJ (Jesse Jr.), age 15. We live in central Minnesota, about an hours drive north of the Twin Cities.  We have a dog named Kirby (after the great Kirby Puckett).  We have a large extended family that lives close so lots of family coming around or us going to family functions. Since our first years together, we have loved cooking!  We have different styles, but after all these years, have learned to work well together in the kitchen.  We cook together a lot, but also work alone in the kitchen to make meals for the whole family. This blog is meant as a way to share the...
CHICKEN ALFREDO BAKED ZITI We were going to visit relatives at their lake place and they wanted pasta for dinner, like Alfredo.  Jesse said I make really good red sauces, but have never made a great white sauce.  I kind of agreed - it just wasn't something I did often because when I had it wasn't really special enough to stand out. Never to be discouraged, I did a little research and found some recipes for Chicken Alfredo Baked Ziti.  Using ziti in a casserole version fit our purposes, rather than fettuccine with Alfredo sauce.  Using ideas from two pins  (see Pinspirations at bottom) , I created my own .  I made each component and stored them separately  overnight.  In the morning I layered them in a cake pan and packed them in the cooler to be made that evening in the oven. It was AWESOME!  They were all impressed, especially Jesse.  He's never been a huge fan of chicken or Alfredo because it tends to be bla...
