Tap into some of this culinary bounty that is an everyday part of Amazon Echo’s offerings – always CS-style recipes, sometimes tips and tidbits too
♦ Caramel Bourbon Brownie Cookies There’s a title that catches the eye. And it doesn’t even touch on the cocoa, chocolate chips and walnuts that also go into these treats described as chewy and chocolately with a hint of spice. Includes some nice ideas too for any leftover caramel sauce. Video and step by step demo. From SideChef.
♦ Cubano Burger Everything you love in a Cubano sandwich piled onto a well seasoned ground pork burger, all tucked into a brioche bun. Yum. From Tastemade.
♦ Loaded Vegetarian Nachos Show of hands for renaming these Fiesta Nachos, because just look at that celebration of colors, flavors and textures all on one plate. More ingredients than we usually feature but so worth it and you actually could if you want limit the toppings. One shortcut that I used was canned lentils, still stirring in all the seasonings. From Tasty.
♦ Eggs in a Cloud The same folks bring us a prep that is pure fun. And, oh yeah, there’s bacon in there too, plus chives if you like, mixed into the whipped whites, baked for 3 min to emerge with golden crests. Then the yolks are plopped into these nests, a bit more baking and out comes a whimsical breakfast. A big bonus is the wacky hack you’ll see in the demo for separating out the yolks. From Tasty.
♦ Chili Relleno Casserole The creator of this prep calls the dish very easy to prepare and loaded with flavor. Reviewers agree, giving it 4+ stars. It starts with canned whole green chile peppers that are stuffed with both jack and cheddar, treated to a pour-over of eggs, evaporated milk and flour, then baked. The recipe calls for topping with canned tomato sauce, but I’m thinking taco sauce could be interesting. From AllRecipes.
♦ Mini Cheesecakes with Melty Chocolate and Strawberry Hearts Make any day Valentine’s Day with a dessert that’s as simple as it is elegant. Decadence checks in too with its buttery graham cracker crust, rich filling, and perfect toppings. Note that you want to make them a day ahead to then decorate them after an overnight stay in the fridge. Credited to Christina Lane at Food Network Kitchen
