Chicken Divan




This is one of my own recipes that I've done in Demarle now. It works pretty well. These pictures though are only half of my recipe because I was making it for someone else too. So, half went in an aluminum tin tray and the other in my Flower Mold. It cooked really well in my mold; will definitely be making it this way from now on, but probably in my Sunflower Mold or Large Round because those are larger.

2+ cups rice, cooked
2-3 bunches of broccoli, steamed and chopped into smaller pieces
8 chicken tenders, cooked on silpat w/ seasoning salt, then diced
1-2 cans of cream of mushroom soup
1 can of milk (use soup can)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup Bread crumbs, optional

Amounts can be more, or less, depending on how much you want to make. This recipe is what I would normally use for a 9x13 pan. Or if you are taking to someone for dinner and can then split in two (one for you and one to take), then I would make a little more. You must precook rice, broccoli and chicken. Then place mold on perforated baking sheet. First fill with rice and pat down, then add broccoli and diced chicken. Mix soup with milk until creamy but not too runny. Pour over chicken. I like to mix it up a little in the mold as you're pouring the soup just to get down into the rice a bit. Then sprinkle with cheese (as generously as you like) and last top with bread crumbs if you like. Bake at 350 for about 35 minutes, a bit longer if you have refrigerated or frozen ahead of time. BTW - this is a great meal to make/prep ahead of time, then can take to someone for them to bake or just pull it out when you are ready to bake and eat.

Chili Relleno Quiche...or any other kind of crustless quiche

Image
This is the most popular recipe, by far, from the food I make at my parties! And, to my surprise, I have never posted it on here...so, figure I should now. EASY EASY RECIPE!!! This is the recipe for about a 2qt mold, like the flower mold, or if you're going to pour into a tray (muffin, square savarin, etc.). However, I use the Sunflower mold the most, so in parentheses I will put how much I use for the sunflower mold ...if that makes any sense ;) Ingredients: 8 eggs, beaten (10) ¾ cup sour cream (1 cup) 3 cups Monterey Jack & Cheddar shredded cheese mix (4 cups) - you can use whatever cheese you like best, even the Mexican blend would be good. I like the Jack/Cheddar combo best though 2 - 4 oz cans or 1 - 7 oz can of diced green chilies, undrained (a 4 oz AND a 7 oz can) Tabasco Sauce, optional (I never use this at parties, but if you like spice, go for it!) Whisk the eggs first, really well.  Then, add your sour cream and whisk very well. It turns out best when t...

Chocolate Kahlua Cake

Image
Yummy!! I found this recipe in the new Demarle Dessert cookbook and it is so good! Any 18-22 oz package Chocolate Cake mix. I used a Duncan Hines Devil's Food mix 4 eggs 1 cup sour cream 1 cup Kahlua 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips Preheat oven to 340. In the mixing bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, sour cream, Kahlua and oil. Beat with an electric mixer for 1-2 minutes until blended. Do not over mix. Stir in chocolate chips with spatula. Place Fluted Bundt Mold on perforated baking sheet. Pour batter into mold. Bake for 45 minutes. Check to see if cake is done with toothpick. Do not over bake! Remove from oven and cool for 15 minutes in pan before unmolding. You can spinkle powdered sugar on top, drizzle with melted white chocolate chips or decorate with whipped topping. But I did not do any of those and it was perfect as is, and it is so easy to make!!

Instant Pot One Pot Pasta

This is a form of baked ziti with meat sauce, but all made in one pot. No more cooking in 2 pots on the stove and then in the oven in a third dish. The family loved this!  Ingredients: Olive oil 1 small onion, chopped 2 cloves of garlic, chopped (or these amazing frozen garlic chunks) italian seasoning (I just eyeball this, but I'm guessing I used 1 tsp of salt, pepper, 1 tbsp dried parsley, 2 tsp dried basil, or these fabulous frozen basil chunks) 1 lb ground beef (I prefer lean just so you don't have to drain it but up to you; could also use turkey, sausage, or no meat) 1 jar pasta sauce (I like the Trader Joe's tomato & basil marinara) 1 jar of water 1 15 oz can tomato sauce (or more of the jar, but this is how I made it tonight so those are the ingredients I'm listing) 1 lb your favorite tube pasta; we used penne pasta (tube just holds more stuff inside and tends to be better for this type of recipe) 1 cup mozzarella cheese, optional Se...
