51 Surprising Uses for Baking Soda

Personal Care

Baking soda can help in the initial handling of minor grease or electrical kitchen fires, because when baking soda is heated, it gives off carbon dioxide, which helps to smother the flames. For small cooking fires (frying pans, broilers, ovens, grills), turn off the gas or electricity if you can safely do so.

Corn Dog Cupcakes

Everyone loves corn dogs/ At least that's what I tell myself when I am making corn dogs for my lunch. Any way, I figured a new way to cook them. Since cupcakes are all the rave these days, I came up with Corn Dog Cupcakes. These would be perfect with Chili, and a great "grown up" way to serve up corn dogs on game day!

1 Pkg. Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix (I use Jiffy, use your favorite)Yes, Old Rob does not make corn bread from scratch
1 pkg. Cocktail wieners (I use Trader Joe's)

Spray a muffin tin with pam. Prepare muffin mix to directions. Pour muffin tins 3/4 way full. Then stick 3-4 wieners in each compartment- That's right stick them into the muffin mix! Bake at 400 for 20 minutes or until golden. Cool for 10 minutes

Ricotta Redemption

You know I am not a fan of Ricotta Cheese. Maybe it was over used by the Italian mothers in my old neighborhood... maybe it was the phony way it was delivered to me on toast as a substitute for cinnamon rolls. Personally I believe it is the texture. But lately, Ricotta has been getting redemption in my kitchen.

One of the ways I have learned to use it, is to mix it with other flavors. And then spreading it on toasted bagels with fruit.

Ricotta Spread
4 oz. Ricotta
2 tablespoons Honey or Blue Agave
1 tablespoon of cinnamon
toasted bagel

Toast bagel. While it is toasting, mix Ricotta, honey or agave and cinnamon. Spread on toasted bagel. Cover with apple slices.

Reusing Carafes

Every once in awhile I get a bunch of carafes, be it that I don't have good luck with coffee makers or whatever (actually I do, ever since I said no to standard coffee makers and went with a one cup coffee maker and a coffee press) Anyway, here are some uses I found for used coffee carafes...

A metal bottom carafe makes a nice Ivy Planter

PLANTERS: I used one a few years back as a planter for an Ivy Plant. Spray painted black on the inside first to emulate a nice pitcher of dark roast coffee!

Pitchers: Use those carafes for pitchers for juice, water or martinis.

Picture from Mosby Building Arts

Fish bowl: while not having done this yet, I wouldn't rule it out! Probably make one out of an old blender first.

Vase- Just like a wine carafe, a coffee carafe of fresh flowers is a nice way to say have a great day in the morning with your breakfast!

Chili Belles

Simple, easy dinner. Something my mom use to make with her homemade chili. But something that's even great with canned chili. I have no idea why they call it Chili Belles (pronounced Chili Bellies). But I am glad that someone invented them.

Chile Belles

1 can of Chili ( I like Trader Joe's Turkey Chili, chose your own favorite) 

or 2 cups of Home made chili

1 bag of Frito's Corn Chips (just doesn't taste the same with tortilla chips)

1 medium onion, chopped fine

1/2 cup of cheddar cheese

1/2 cup of sour cream if desired

First prepare the chili. Spread the frito's on a plate or a shallow bowl, Spread the chili over the fritos top with the onions and cheese. Top with Sour cream if desired. Serve. Enjoy.

Easy Baked Chicken

Kids (And Me) Love chicken fingers! Using strips of Skinless breast meat make this a healthy alternative to those deep fried nuggets. Using other parts of the bird make this a dish good enough for company.

Easy Baked Chicken

4 cups dry Panko bread crumbs

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1 tablespoon salt

1 tablespoon paprika

1 tablespoon celery salt

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

1/4 teaspoon minced onion

1 pinch dried basil leaves

1 pinch dried parsley

1 pinch dried oregano

1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken (I like to use Thighs, but breast meat sliced into “fingers” also works well)

Preheat oven to 425- In a large resealable plastic bag, Or in a bowl, combine the crumbs, oil, salt, paprika, celery salt, pepper, garlic salt, minced garlic, minced onion, basil, parsley and oregano. Marinate the chicken in butter milk, shake dry and coat with the Panko mixture.(Or if using a bag, shake it like "Shake and Bake"). Place chicken pieces on cooking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Chicken is done when it reaches an internal  temperature of 165 and is a golden brown.

Valentine's TIn

Simple strikes again for the new year! I took a clean new quart paint can, bought at Lowes, and put some of these neat foam rubber stickers all over it I found at Dollar Tree, then put dog treats in it. I would think a person could put candies in it or cookies then seal the lid (pound it down with a mallet or light hammer). A simple valentine gift for a kid or someone special.

What to do with old gift cards

Gift cards are a great present... but what to do with them when they are spent?

ReUp the account- a lot of gift cards can be recharged- Starbucks comes to mind... so register that gift card and re-charge it!

Ice Scraper- leave a used gift card in your car- they make great Ice Scrapers for Icy windows.

Guitar Picks- I have a fancy hole punch that punches out guitar picks out of expired credit cards, gift cards, store member value cards. The punch is available at PickPunch.com.

Dress- Lizzie Gardiner, who won an Oscar for best costume design for "Priscilla, Queen of the Dessert" designed and wore a dress made out of American Express credit cards to the ceremony.

My Lunchbots... still going after all these years!

Lunchbots. Those wonderful stainless steel food carriers I found on Beth Terry's My Plastic Free Life (AKA Fake Plastic Fish) Blog a few years back. Sturdy little stainless steel containers that carry sandwiches, salad, snacks... and take a beating.

Now I find out they have a whole lot of new designs and carriers from the Quad (pictured above) to insulated soup carriers to snap lock leak proof Lunchbots. Better than a bento box for lunches, lasts longer than a tiffen set. I love these so much. And everyone at work marvels at their construction.

Crunchy Ravioli Treats

If you live in Seattle this post is for you. If you live in Atlanta- get lost... no treats for you!

For the next big game, like the Seahawks VS. The Falcons I am going to provide some crunchy tasty treats.

Crunchy Ravioli Treats

12 wonton wrappers
filling-1/4 pound of hamburger or Italian sausage
Pasta Sauce
Preheat oven to 350. Brown the burger/sausage. Mix it with the pasta sauce. Place half the wrappers on a baking sheet. Take and spoon it over half of the wrappers.Dip your finger and "paint" the edge of the wrappers with some water. (this helps seal the wrappers). put a top layer of wonton wrappers on each of the wrappers. Sprinkle Italian Seasoning over the top. Bake  for 15-20 minutes, just until golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes. Serve with some leftover pasta sauce.

Lasagna Cupcakes

I found this recipe online at Quick Dish.com. I adapted it to use a 6 section muffin tin. so double it to make more. I like it because being single, I rarely have lasagna. I usually eat two or three and take the leftovers to work. And this is like everyone getting the crunchy corner piece of a lasagna, so bonus... no punching or name calling at the dinner table!

Lasagna Cupcakes:
1/4 pound ground beef
salt and pepper (to taste)
12 wonton or Gyoza wrappers. Gyoza wrappers are slightly thicker than wonton wrappers. Usually located in the same section as Wonton Wrappers in your local Asian market.
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup ricotta cheese (*Optional)
1/2 cup pasta sauce
basil for garnish (optional)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray muffin tin with cooking spray. Brown beef, and season with salt and pepper. Drain. Cut wonton wrappers into circle shapes (about 2 1/4- inches) using a biscuit cutter. You can cut several at a time. Or do Like I did and use round wonton (gyosa) wrappers. Reserve 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese and 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese for the top of your cupcakes. Start layering your lasagna cupcakes. Begin with a wonton wrapper and press it into the bottom of each muffin tin. Sprinkle a little Parmesan cheese, ricotta cheese, and mozzarella cheese in each. Top with a little meat and pasta sauce. Repeat layers again. Top with reserved Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until edges are brown. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. To remove, use a knife to loosen the edges then pop each lasagna out. Garnish with basil and serve.

*Note the reason I say the ricotta is optional is I don't use ricotta in Lasagna, nor does my mother. I choose to use extra mozzerella. It's a texture thing!

It all started here... the Seattle P-Patch Story

I thought I would share a little bit of Seattle History. This Video, explains the start of the first P-Patch (community) garden. Today the city of Seattle has over 80 P-patches, King county has two or three  Burien has one official Community garden, set by the same guidlines as Seattle's, and a couple of "unofficial" gardens in private areas.
 

Start Your Own Aquaponics Garden for under $75

Those inventive folks at Back to the Roots, who brought you the home mushroom kits that are so easy to use have announced they are taking orders for a complete home aquaponics garden kit.
A new offer by BTTR, this garden will allow you to grow herbs, all the time filtering the fish waste products cleaning the water and returning the clean water to the tank. If you have ever wanted to try your hand at Aquaponics, but were afraid to try, this is for you. Their initial price is $60 for the first kit and includes:
 -The tank & garden top
 -Air pump to bring your nutrients up and oxygenate the water
-5 pots with pebbles (from which the plants will grow)
 -Organic seeds (mixture of various herbs)
 -Fish food and water conditioners to get started right away

 Read the FAQ on the BTTR Aquaponic garden:

"1) How many fish can I keep? The industry standard is 1" of fish for 1 gallon of water. This is a 3 gallon tank, so you can have 1 larger 3" fish, or a few smaller 1" fish. If you'd like to host other types of fish, the system will allow it, but you should transfer them out to a larger tank when they grow in size. 

2) What kind of fish can I put in my tank? Many types will work well, but we highly recommend some ornamental fish like bettas, cloud fish, danios, etc. These are some of the easiest fish to keep, but depending on your expertise, you can keep others! 

3) How big is the unit? It's roughly 10" wide, by 11" high, by 6" deep - smaller than your average toaster oven! The tank itself holds 3 gallons of water. When empty, it's super-light, just a few pounds! 

4) What is it made out of? We are finalizing the exact materials, but are exploring various combinations of recycled plastics, acrylic, and glass. 

5) Can I grow flowers in my system? Absolutely!! 

6) How many different types of plants can I grow? There are 5 "pots" to plant in, and you pick and choose what combo of plants to grow in them as you please! Five of the same, or one of each. You can get creative! 

7) Does it need sunlight - I thought fish don't like sun? We recommend putting the tank right next to your window, with the back up against a wall. That way there's no direct light coming into your tank, but at the same time, enough ambient sunlight to help the plants grow. If you'd like to place the kit right against a window, we suggest just placing a backer against the back clear panel to prevent direct sunlight from hitting the tank (which can cause algae growth!) We're working on finding the best tint for the back right now. 

8) Can I grow year-round? Yes! If it's too cold though for the fish you choose or you don't have proper light in the winter, we suggest investing in some inexpensive water-heaters and grow-lights to guarantee consistent growth! We'll have our favorite suggestions on our site, and links to buy them, when we are reading to ship in late February." 

Pig Candy

I know there are a lot of recipes out there for this. This is one I have adapted from a few. Very easy to make. Kinda like Shake N' Bake for bacon
10 slices of bacon (about 1 1/4 lb of thick-cut bacon)
*3/4 teaspoon ground cayenne
1/2 cup light brown sugar

*optional- the heat may not be too kid friendly so omit if you or you kids won't like it.

Preheat oven to 350. Mix the Brown sugar and cayenne pepper in a large zip lock bag, take a slice of bacon and put it in the bag. Close bag and shake it, making cure the bacon get well coated. Repeat until you are done. Place the baking on a boiler pan. (Wht I do here is place two cake cooling racks on a cookie sheet) and place in oven. Cook for 15- 30 minute or until crispy. Remove from oven. While cooling sprinkle bacon with rest of brown sugar-cayenne mixture. Let cool completely. Serve as slices or crumble and serve over vanilla Ice Cream or Maple Ice cream.

Black Peppered Shrimp

This is a recipe that my cousin Dennis, and his wife Mary make. It has been "reengineered" to use with frozen shrimp rather than fresh shrimp that you have to de-vein, because de-veining shrimp is just gross. Really.

1 pkg. Frozen large shrimp, 50-70 count*
1/4 cup of black pepper
1 stick of butter
3 cups of prepared rice

 Place shrimp in a baking pan with 2" sides. or a 13 X9 cake pan. Cut the butter into cubes and top over the shrimp, and pour all the pepper over the shrimp and butter. Place the entire pan in a 350 oven for 10 minutes or so, not over cooking the shrimp. Serve shrimp over rice, use a fresh french bread or baguette to sop up the butter "sauce".

Also works well with "salad"shrimp.

Happy 2013!!!

Happy New Year!!!
