The Delicious: Garlic Cheese Flatbread Recipe

 

Garlic Cheese Flatbread Recipe - Allrecipes.com

 

  • 1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast

  • 1 cup lukewarm water

  • 2 cups bread flour

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 2 teaspoons white sugar

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened

  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

 

 

 

 

 

 

Directions

  1. In a cup or small bowl, sprinkle yeast over the surface of the lukewarm water. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes to dissolve.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, salt and sugar. Pour in the yeast mixture along with the olive oil. Beat with a sturdy spoon until dough is stiff enough to pull away from the sides of the bowl. Cover, and set aside until doubled in size, about 35 minutes.
  3. Remove the dough from the bowl and knead briefly on a floured surface. Roll the dough out to 1/4 to 1/2 inch thickness or to the size of your baking sheet. Place on a greased baking sheet and spread butter over the top. Sprinkle with garlic powder, Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese. Let rest while you preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  4. Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown and cheese is bubbly. Serve warm.

The Delicious: Fried Stuffing Bites with Cranberry Sauce Pesto Recipe

 

This is THE best thing to do with left over stuffing.  Fried Stuffing Bites are a must try for any foodie.

I like to add a small piece of turkey breast in the middle of the stuffing ball for a complete bite sized post Thanksgiving Day treat.

Ingredients

  • Leftover stuffing
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons milk
  • 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1 cup cranberry sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup walnuts
  • Oil, for frying

Directions

Preheat oil to 350 degrees F.

 

Cut leftover stuffing into bite-sized cubes and set aside. In a small bowl whisk eggs and milk. Coat each stuffing bite with this egg wash, then dredge in the bread crumbs until fully coated and set aside. In a food processor blend cranberry sauce, pepper and walnuts and set aside. Once oil is at temperature fry each piece of stuffing until golden brown about 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel and serve with cranberry pesto.
