*blinks* It doesn't matter: they're the same size, or at least they are on my hands....

That's not true. I've seen hands with shorter ring than index or vice versa.

*blinks* Oh. On my hands, they're the same...so...I'd assume you just pick one...*shrugs* I dunno.

And another thing I like to make is chesse covered chicken. There's really no recipe. Just take melted chesse, and put it over shredded chicken.

My index finger is just slightly longer than my ring finger, on both hands...

The Best Sandwich Ever (at least to me it is)

Ingredients:
3 slices of bread (any kind, you can even mix and match)
2 slices of cheese (I prefer Kraft singles, but whatever)
Um...lunch meat (any kind, you can mix and match, and use however much you want)
Mayo! (no sandwich is ever complete without it...NOT OPTIONAL! >P)

Directions:
1. Basically, make a sandwich. Put mayo on a piece of bread, put on cheese and lunch meat, and put another piece of bread on top.
2. Put some more mayo on top of the sandwich, put on cheese, lunchmeat, and then the third slice.
3. Enjoy! You now have a big sandwich for hungry stomachs ;D And of course, you could always add another layer if you're REALLY hungry...oh, and of course, serve with a tall glass of milk and Nilla wafers! ^_^

I make this for lunch EVERY DAY...

NOTE: ALWAYS eat it over the plate; some of it tends to squish out...

Being a Redwall nut, HERE'S A RECIPE FOR THE FOUR MOST POPULAR REDWALL FOODS!!!! (Including meadwocream and hotroot soup!!!)

Shrimp Hotroot Soup

Ingredients:
4 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed into 1/2" cubes
enough water to cover veggies
3 boullion cubes or 1 can liquid chicken broth (14oz.)
1 1/2 cups small, boiled shrimp (can be bought frozen & pre-cooked)
1 cup celery, minced
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup cubed velveeta cheese
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley (only for color)
1 onion, minced
2-3 teaspoons garlic powder, or none if you prefer
salt & pepper to taste
1 teaspoon Tobasco or pepper sauce, leave out to have a mellow soup
1 small can clam meat (6 oz. & with the juice, optional too, for a good fish flavor)
2 tablespoons butter

Take a fairly large boiler, and put the butter and onions in the bottom. Turn on medium heat, and just let the butter melt. Next add the potatoes and celery. If you are using the chicken broth add it now, with the garlic, salt, clam meat, pepper sauce, parsley, boullion cubes, and shrimp. Add enough water to cover everything. Let it all come to a gentle boil, then turn down the heat so it can simmer unattended. Cook for 1 hour, stirring every 25 minutes or so, vegetables will be soft and add thickness to soup. Garnish with chopped green onions, like a potato.

**you may like to add more or less seasoning, it all depends on what you like
**Use leftover boiled shrimp for an appetizer or sidedish with cocktail sauce, [1/2 teaspoon horseradish to 2/3 cup ketchup]

Oh, and here's the coveted

[glow=GREEN,2,300]GREAT HALL CAKE[/glow][/b]

Two cups of Arrowroot and Pollen Flour (Wheat Flour)
Chopped Chestnuts
Honeyed Damsons
Sugared Violets
Raspberries
Flaked Beechnuts
Dried Plums
Rosehip Syrup
Wild Buttercup Cream (Meadow Cream)
Blackberry Cream
Almond Paste
Half a cup of Greensap Milk (Soybean Milk, or a regular cup of cow's milk)
Candied Maple Leaves
4oz.(125g) Butter
4oz.(half cup) Sugar
2-3 eggs
pinch of salt
pinch of baking soda
Mix the butter and sugar together until creamy. Then, put in the flour, salt, and baking soda. Mix together. Pour in the milk and mix. Add half of the flaked beechnuts and about 10 honeyed damsons. Mix. Take your pan, and butter it. Place the raspberries and the honeyed damsons in neat lines. Bake in a 350 degree oven. Repeat to make two cakes.

Once they are firm and cool, slice each cake longways two times. On the bottom layer of the first cake, spread some rosehip syrup lightly across it. Put the sugared violets on it. Place the next layer (of the first cake) lightly on top and spread with blackberry cream. Sprinkle with candied maple leaves. Next layer (of the second cake) placed lightly on top, and spread with almond paste and scatter the rest of the flaked beechnuts on top. The last layer, spread wild buttercup cream on top, some chopped chestnuts, and some rosehip syrup to give it a light pink color. This is very sweet, so drink some milk with it.

Here's something healthy...

You can do this two ways, but I prefer vegetarian style since I am a vegetarian (duh).

Vegetarian Chili
340g/12oz - soy-based ground meat substitute (doesn't that sound yummy!)
1/2 onion - diced
2 cloves garlic - minced
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cups tomatoes/tomato sauce or pasta sauce
1 398ml/14oz can kidney beans - drained
1 cup corn - fresh, frozen or canned
1 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp basil
1/8 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp chopped cilantro

If the soy-based ground meat substitute needs to be cooked, then do so, then mash it up and set aside.

In a saucepan, sautee onion and garlic in olive oil over medium heat until onions are soft (approx 5 mins)

Add tomato/sauce, kidney beans, corn, chili powder, oregano, cumin, basil, pepper and stir.

Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 5 minutes.

Stir in soy-based ground meat substitute and cilantro, heat through. Serve.

(Cilantro can be optional)
Also good with grated cheese sprinkled on top.

If you're a carnivore, than use ground meat of your choice. I also usually toss in a few extra vegetables - carrots, green pepper, etc. This comes out mildly spicy, so if you prefer really spicy food, add more spices. It can also be used for making nacho's, but I'd drop the veggies if that's what you'e going to do with it.

I also prefer using Yves Veggie Ground Round for this - it can be picked up at Safeway or Superstore (In Canada, I don't know about the States). It has an excellent consistency and has actually fooled people I know into believing they were eating meat.

Don't forget to serve with GARLIC BREAD! Or cheese bread works too, but isn't as healthy.

[Jitterbug]

I used to make this all the time when I lived in Japan and I still say they were the best mexican food in Tokyo.

Veggie Quesadillas
You need:
Frying Pan - should be at least same size as tortillas.
Tortillas - any size and flavour
Olive oil or cooking spray
Onion
Green Pepper
Tomato
Mushrooms - canned or fresh
Cheese - preferably cheddar or jack
Lettuce - iceburg works best.
Salsa
Sour Cream
Guacamole (to you it's optional, to me, mandatory)

Chop onion and green pepper into strips, slice mushrooms, sautee in oil until onions are soft. Set aside.
Dice tomato, grate cheese, grate lettuce or chop thinly. set aside.

Heat frying pan to medium-low - heat should not exceed medium at any time. Coat frying pan with cooking spray or use a tiny drop of oil in the centre (don't use too much oil, otherwise it might come out too crispy or greasy), Place tortilla in frying pan smooth side upand twirl so bottom will not stick.

Sprinkle grated cheese on one side of the tortilla and wait until it melts. Add tomatoes, peppers, onion and mushrooms, fold tortilla (like an omelette), and flip to heat other side. Remain in frying pan for an additional minute (don't let the tortilla get too crispy), then remove from heat and place on cutting board.

With a reasonably sharp knife (be careful!) slice the tortilla in half, then into quarters and eigths, depending on the size of your tortilla.

Serve with lettuce, sour cream, salsa and guacamole.

And if you must have meat, you can chop up some chicken or beef, sautee it, then throw it in with the veggies.

For a twist, mix a bit of chopped cilantro and jalapeno pepper in with the cheese.

Okay...I'll start out with one of my weird snack ideas...heehee (to me, it's reaaaaally good)

[glow=red,2,300]Crunchy Triscut & Cheese Suprize[/glow]

long title, ne?

what you'll need:

- some Triscut crackers (mmm)
- Some Pickles (suprize! it has pickle in it O.o)
- some Cheese (any kind is good, except for Kraft Singles or Cheese Wiz )
- Crushed Peanuts (without the shells...eeeuck)

First thing is to cut some cheese slices, be careful with that sharp knife though...heehee. Um, yeah...cut squares a little smaller than the Triscut, and set 'em aside...this is de fun part. Get your peanuts and put ém in a ziplock bag (this prevents messyness) Take your heaviest nearby object (hammer) and smash the peanuts to peices...try not to crush them too much though (we don't want peanut butter e_e) Then slice some pickles up, mmhmm. little pickle circles, done? Okay, so put the chese on the Triscut and microwave for about 50 seconds (well, my microwave ish weird/broken/old, and it cooks things really fast) and remove. Sprinkle the peanuts on and place a pickle slice on top and then place another triscut on top of the whole thing...like a sandwich. Enjoy.

Warning: may contain traces of peanuts. (duh)

I shall now magically ressurect this thread!

My recipie is actually really simple. It's called...

PEACHI'S YOGURT-LESS BERRY SMOOTHIE!

So, what you're going to need for this is...

- One 16-ounce bag of frozen mixed berries
- Some sort of tropical (banana, pineapple, something) juice. (The pine-orange-banana stuff from Dole is my personal favorite. ^_^)
- Crushed ice. (If you don't have crushed ice on hand, hold on a second.)

Oh, and by the way, this recipie is for two people, just in case you want to share with a friend. ^__^

Fill your blender (you DO have a blender, right?) up to the 8-ounce line with ice. I dunno if all blenders have lines marking ounces, but use a reasonable amount if you don't know. Now, if it's not crushed, this step is for you. Blend the ice on a medium-low setting for about ten seconds. Woo-hoo!

Now, add 1/4 of the 16-ounce bag of berries. Again, use a reasonable amount if you don't know, kiddies. Don't drop one blueberry in and expect to have anything other than a purple slushie. Now, add some juice. It should be up to the 32-ounce line by now. Make sure the juice is higher than the berries and the ice, or else it's not going to blend very well.

Now, if your blender has a smoothie setting, use it. If it doesn't, blend the smoothie on a medium setting until it's all smooth and stuff.

WHEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Okay, now you can pour the smoothie into two stylish glasses. Enjoy your new frozen treat. ^_^
