As promised here are the recipes!

Josh Bayne’s Thai Sauce

Lee Kum Kee (has to be this brand, says Josh, he tried the others) Chili Garlic Sauce – 2 spoonfuls

Lime juice – half a lime worth

Rice Wine Vinegar – few splashes

Soy sauce – few splashes

Peanut Butter, Jif Brand– 2 to 3 big spoons worth, smooth kind

Sugar – couple pinches

Water – For pizza sauce = a couple splashes.  For pasta or veggie sauce = half a cup to a cup.  Water must be warm.

Mix thoroughly in a bowl, and top accordingly.  Amount of water depends on what kind of thickness you want the sauce to have.

Kaj’s BBQ Thai Sauce

Lee Kum Kee Chili Garlic Sauce – 3 spoonfuls

Lime juice – entire lime worth

Rice wine vinegar – splash

Soy sauce – splash

Peanut Butter – 2 to 3 spoonfuls worth, smooth kind.

Brown sugar – 4 spoonfuls or a quarter cup approx

Dash of cayenne

Small teaspoon of ground pepper, or a few turns on a grinder

Water – half a cup

Mix thoroughly in a bowl, paint onto chicken during last few turns on the grill (that’s all I’ve tried, but I bet it’s great on about anything).  Probably really good on pork too.  The goal of the sauce is both a sweet and spicy effect, with the brown sugar and cayenne offsetting nicely.  Absolutely amazing on stir fry too, but watch your temperature since the sugar content is up there, some burning could happen.  Josh’s is probably better on veggies.

Enjoy!

Anything But Brussels Sprouts

I really don’t like brussels sprouts, okay more like I hate them.  They taste just as bad as they smell.  My mom attempted to feed them to me on various occasion with no success.  Fortunately for brussels sprouts, they are great little soldiers in the prevention of certain types of cancer, because they’re high in Vitamin B.

I still don’t think I could eat them.  So if you know away that makes brussels sprouts edible, I might try them.

Jeanie suggested that I fry them in bacon grease then add the cooked bacon with mashed croutons and I could be enjoying a family favorite that even the kids enjoy.  Bacon smells so good they should make candles out of the stuff and it should be strong enough to get rid of the brussels sprouts smell.  Still I don’t know how health it would be but I think it’s worth trying.  At the very least we could cut back over time the amount of bacon.

Kevin likes his brussels sprouts a little simpler with melted butter and a little lemon juice.

There are many ways to fight cancer but the food we put in our bodies is having the greatest impact.  I’m going to try brussels sprouts sooner or later.  Later, probably, so until then I’ll stick to asparagus and orange juice.  Not together though, that would be gross.

Salmon Mustard Dill Sauce

My six year old loved this over her salmon; she must have adult taste buds. :)

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup mayo

3tbs minced fresh parsley

3tbs minced fresh dill weed

2tbs dijon mustard

2tsp lemon juice

Mix all ingredients and then chill in the refrigerator for at least three hours.  Serve over grilled or broiled salmon.  You might just feel like your in a fancy restaurant.
