]]>Herring Pot Pie
If you’ve ever seen the film Kiki’s Delivery Service, you probably remember the herring pot pie that Kiki must deliver in the rain against all odds. The pie looks delicious even animated, and luckily a few people have created recipes so that you can eat it in real life. Some recipes use pumpkin, while others require a mash-potato base. Either way, it’s delicious and quite a departure from the classic chicken.
Vegan Pot Pie
Even though chicken pot pie is named for its meat, its main characteristics are really that the ingredients be cooked in a broth until thick and then covered in a crust. That means it’s not too hard to turn this vegan by using vegetable stock, seitan, or whatever you like instead of chicken, and lots of veggies.
(@happycow)Guinness Beef Pot Pie
In an ultra-rich, ultra-original take on the classic dish, this is essentially beer-based beef stew covered with a crust. It’s also got mushrooms and other veggies that soak up all that beefy goodness.

]]>Matzo Ball Soup
You’ve probably heard of this and associate it with motherly warmth. Matzo ball soup is a classic chicken soup with balls made from matzo meal and egg cooked inside. These dumplings range from small, dense, and chewy to large, soft, and melt-in-your-mouth, depending on who makes them.
Chicken and Dumplings
As the American south’s answer to Matzo balls, chicken and dumplings features a creamy chicken soup base (often created with canned cream of mushroom soup or similar), carrots and peas, and of course dumplings. Rather than matzo meal these dumplings are made with flour or a similar starch mixed with heavy cream, so they are generally chewier and much richer than their counterpart.
Potsticker Soup
Using frozen Chinese potstickers, this Asian-style soup is super easy to make. Just whip up a comforting broth of chicken stock, soy, and sesame as well as garlic and ginger, throw in whatever veggies you want and the cooked potstickers, and top with sesame seeds and green onions.

]]>Add Fruit
Most people know that fruit and cheese are a great combination. But when it comes to grilled cheese it can really make a big difference. Fresh fruit and melted or creamy cheese will give you that perfect combo of sweet and salty plus warm and cold. Another great option is to spread jam on your bread before you add the cheese, which adds just the right amount of sweetness.
Chocolate
Yes, you read that right. This will speak to the sweet and salty craving, but beyond that, dark chocolate can also add a wonderful bitterness and even a crunch to a brighter, creamier cheese like brie.
Chips
If you prefer to highlight the “junk food” side of grilled cheese, try adding a snack of your choice. This could be potato chips, cheetos, fritos, whatever you like. If you add tortilla chips you’ll even have something of a nacho situation! That crunch and melty cheese is the ultimate snack.

]]>The post How to Make the Best Microwave Mashed Potatoes appeared first on falafelandcaviar.com.
]]>Ingredients:
- 1 large or 2 medium potatoes (or as many as you’d like to make)
- Garlic to taste
- Butter to taste
- Milk to taste
- Salt to taste
- Optional toppings: pepper, cheese, sour cream, green onions
(@flitlike)Instructions:
- Start by washing your potatoes thoroughly. It’s up to you if you’d like to peel them or not. Leaving the skin will give you some pockets of extra-chewy potato, and the skin has a lot of nutrients. But, this is up to personal preference. Either way, be sure to use a fork to poke lots of holes all over the potato.
- Put the potato in the microwave on high for around 3 minutes, then turn it over and cook for another 3.
- Use the fork to check how cooked the potato is, and continue microwaving until soft.
- Take out the potato and mash it up. Mash in as much butter and garlic as you’d like as well.
- Finish by adding a splash of milk or cream, salt, and any other mix-ins.
- Mix until just combined, keeping in mind that as you mix the mash will become more elastic. So, for creamier potatoes, don’t overmix. If you do accidentally, simply add more milk and salt and mix until you have the right consistency.

: @eating_longislandSharp Cheddar
When you don’t want to risk ruining dinner, go with sharp cheddar. It has a low melting point and stays smooth. It basically gives you the mac & cheese you always imagine when you think about the dish.
Gouda
Another great option is gouda, a type of cheese that melts wonderfully and provides great flavor.

It’s a hard cheese, but it melts great and has a nutty flavor that’ll make you fall in love at first try.
Cream Cheese
In case you have some cream cheese in the fridge, don’t be afraid to use it to make mac & cheese! It’s especially great if you prepare your food in a slow cooker.
Brie
Feeling fancy or have special guests coming over? Use brie to make a classic dish with a twist.

]]>Ingredients
- 4 cups of milk, 2% is ideal
- 1 cup of cornmeal
- 3 teaspoons of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
- 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
- 3 egg yolks, separated
Recipe
- Pour 3 cups of the milk into a saucepan over medium heat and cook it until bubbles form around the pot.
- While the milk heats up, combine the last cup milk with the cornmeal, sugar, and salt. Mix well until everything is smooth.
- Combine the cornmeal mixture into the hot milk while whisking constantly until it comes to a full boil. Cook on low for 5 more minutes, still whisking.
- Turn off the heat, add in the baking powder and butter and mix well.
- In a separate small bowl, beat the egg yolks and add the cornmeal mixture a little bit at a time so it tempers. After you’ve done about half, then add the whole mixture to the cornmeal.
- Whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form and then fold in 1/4 of it into the cornmeal. Once that’s incorporated, add in all the egg whites.
- Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and cook at 350Ffor 40-45 minutes. Cool and enjoy!
