Teriyaki Burgers

Marinade:
3/4 cup water
1 cup soy sauce
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder

You will also need:
beef patties
pineapple slices
cheese slices
buns

Make marinade by combining the ingredients in a sauce pan over medium heat. Bering to a boil then reduce heat and simmer until sauce thickens. Cover and chill for 30 minutes. Place beef patties in marinade, save a little marinade in a separate container. In separate marinade container add pineapple slices. Grill patties and grill pineapple slices. Add any kind of cheese and other toppings to burgers and enjoy.

I got this recipe from a Relief Society handout.

Muddy Buddies

9 cups chex cereal
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Microwave chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter on high for 1 minute, stir, microwave 30 seconds longer until mixture can be stirred smooth. Stir in vanilla. With cereal in large seal able bag, pour mixture over cereal, stirring until evenly coated, add powdered sugar. Shake until well coated. And eat.

Aunt Martha used to make huge batches of this for the fireworks in Idaho on the fourth of July. Of course the Beasley family calls this recipe "dog food". I absolutely love it, as do the girls and David. Enjoy

Pasta Salad

Bow tie pasta
Cubed chicken, browned
Sunflower seeds
green & red pepper chopped small
green onions
pineapple, drained
shredded mozzarella cheese
mayonnaise
some pineapple juice

Mix all together and serve. I got this from Enrichment night. There was no recipe so I would just guess on the amounts. I might also use canned shredded chicken due to my distaste of handling raw meat.

Bean Dip

Bean Dip (we think it'd be great on a salad too!)
1 can of red beans
1 can of pinto beans1 can white beans
1 can of black beans
1/2 of a green pepper chopped into bean size pieces, some red onion. I used about 3 slices. Chopped fine.
Tomatoes, chopped
2 avocados chopped up.
About 1/3 of a bottle of Catalina salad dressing.

I stole this recipe from Ambers blog and she got it from her friend Ashley.
