CREAMED CHIPPED BEEF ON TOAST

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Whisk in flour all at once to form a roux. Whisk in milk, a little at a time, increase heat to medium-high, and cook, stirring, until thickened. Bring to a boil, stir in beef and cayenne, heat through and serve over toast.

THE REAL MOJITO

Steps:

• Place mint leaves and 1 lime wedge into a sturdy glass. Use a muddler to crush the mint and lime to release the mint oils and lime juice. Add 2 more lime wedges and the sugar, and muddle again to release the lime juice. Do not strain the mixture. Fill the glass almost to the top with ice. Pour the rum over the ice, and fill the glass with carbonated water. Stir, taste, and add more sugar if desired. Garnish with the remaining lime wedge.

CREAMY SCOTTISH OATMEAL (WITH CROCK-POT INSTRUCTIONS)

Steps:

• If you are making this in a crockpot, the first and only step is to throw everything together in a 2-quart crockpot [increase the water to 3-1/2 cups to allow for evaporation]. Okay, now nighty-nite! We'll see you in the morning!
• Otherwise, bring 1 cup milk and 3 cups water to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan.
• Stir in oats, spices, and raisins.
• Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• When cooking is complete, stir in brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla, pecans, and salt (don't add the salt with the boil; the oats won't cook right).
• If you are using a crockpot, you may notice that a crust has formed on the bottom of the crock after cooking. This is perfectly normal. You can eat it if you want to, or you can just leave it. Just make sure to transfer the recipe into a resealable bowl and soak your crockpot right away. This stuff will stick like glue if it dries.
• Serve! You can add more fresh or dried fruit, butter, more milk, whathaveyou, but it's awesome all on its own.

COLD SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• Place shrimp in a large mixing bowl with red and green bell peppers, garlic, onion, cilantro, and avocado. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to develop. Serve chilled.

SCOTTISH CREAM (AS OPPOSED TO IRISH CREAM)

Steps:

• Dump all the ingredients in a blender and whizz on high for 30 seconds.
• Bottle in a tightly sealed container and keep in the fridge.
• Be sure the shake the bottle well before serving.
• This will keep for up to two months in the fridge.
• Note: Don't use heavy cream, it tends to separate.
• If you can't find light cream, use half and half, or whole milk.

MISSISSIPPI POT ROAST

Steps:

• Combine chuck roast, pepperoncini, pepperoncini juice, au jus mix, buttermilk ranch dressing, salt, and pepper in a slow cooker. Cook on Low until roast is fork-tender, about 8 hours.

MISSISSIPPI ROAST

Steps:

• Season chuck roast generously with salt and pepper. Rub flour evenly over the surface of the meat.
• In a large saute pan, warm oil over high heat until very hot but not smoking. Sear the roast until browned and crusty on all sides, about 15 minutes total.
• Place roast in the pot of a slow cooker. Pour beef broth around the roast. Sprinkle Ranch seasoning over the roast, place butter on top and scatter pepperoncini over and around the roast. Cover the slow cooker and set on low heat for 7-8 hours.
• When ready, shred the meat and mix with the sauce in the slow cooker. Serve over bread, egg noodles or potatoes.
