So-Easy Shish-Ka-Bots

Recipe By : Real Food for Real People
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Beef                   Chicken
Marinades For Meat                   Marinades For Poultry And Fish

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound Boneless Chicken -- cut in 2" pieces
1 pound Beef, trimmed -- cut in 2" pieces
1 package Ranch-Style Dressing Mix -- powdered
1/2 cup Vegetable Oil
1/2 cup Miracle Whip® light

You will need two medium sized bowls. Divide powdered salad dressing mix
between the two bowls, in equal portions. Next, add the vegetable oil to one bowl,
and mix well. Add the miracle whip to the second bowl, and mix well. Rinse
chicken with cold water, and pat dry with paper towels. Place chicken into the
bowl containing the miracle whip mixture, and stir to coat chicken pieces. Cover
this bowl, and place in refrigerator for one hour. Place beef pieces into the bowl
containing the vegetable oil mixture, and stir to coat beef pieces. Cover and place
in refrigerator for one hour. While your meat and poultry are marinating, soak 24
large wooden skewers in a shallow pan of water. By soaking the wooden
skewers, you will discourage them from burning through while your meat is
cooking. When your hour is over, place chicken onto 12 of the skewers, 3 or 4
pieces per skewer, and place onto a platter or baking sheet. Set aside. Now,
place beef onto the other 12 skewers, and place onto a separate platter or baking
sheet. Immediately dispose of remaining marinade from each bowl- do not reuse.
Broil shish-ka-bots on your outdoor grill, over medium heat, turning frequently, until
meat is cooked through and tender.

I was hoping someone could give me some tried and true recipes for homemade
ice cream. We just purchased a ice cream maker and would like some recipes,
such as banana, strawberry, vanilla, etc. Thanks in advance,

Shirley

O.K. maybe I'm not completely computer literate but I'm having a problem in
finding the recipe for non stick spray, I can't find it in the archives. Please help! I
really would like to make this myself and stop paying $3 a can for it. Thanks,

Denise

Note from Kaylin: The archives are easily accessed from the home page of the
RF4RP website, and the past issues of the ezine are listed by the main recipe in
that issue. The recipe you are asking about actually is from Volume 4, Cake
Mixes in Jars and is called "Homemade Non-Stick Coating". Here it is for those of
you who want to save money by making your own:

Homemade Non-Stick Coating
copyright 1999,2002, Kaylin White/Real Food for Real People

1 cup Vegetable Oil
1 cup Shortening
1 cup Flour

In a large mixing bowl, mix until smooth with electric mixer. Store in an airtight
container in the refrigerator until needed. Use this to coat pans for cakes, muffins,

My daughter is growing up mega fast and as a result, hormones are going crazy.
It was suggested that we change her diet a bit to help even things out. Tofu was
suggested, as well as baking with brown flour vs. white flour.

Question 1) Are there any adjustments I need to make in my recipes when I am
using brown and unbleached flour vs. white?

Question 2) Is there a better alternative than brown or unbleached flour, and again,
what alterations to I need to make to my favorite recipes?

Question 3) Tofu was another suggestion, and I am picking up a couple of recipe
books to start experimentation. Could you please run a few "dependable" tofu
recipes for me as a starting base.

Question 4) Tomato basil soup, miso soup and a tomato and onion salad.
Recipes please.

It's sometimes possible to save seized chocolate, but is very involved. To "save"
seized chocolate, you can use it for a bark by adding nuts, dried fruit bits (raisins
are yummy), coconut, or anything you want. This is such a great newsletter!
Keep up the good work.
