Recipes For Today

Creamy Bacon Mushroom Fettuccine
So i found out that many ladies/women spend a lot of time going over recipes
Thats why i decided to help with a couple of recipes today











2 large sweet potatoes
2 tablespoons cornstarch, divided
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
salt and pepper, to taste

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking pan with non-stick aluminum foil, or regular aluminum foil coated well with cooking spray. Set aside.

Rinse the sweet potatoes, scrubbing the dirt off the skins with a brush. Dry, then peel. Cut each sweet potato in half. Cut each of those pieces in half. Then cut each of those pieces in half. 

Note: This recipe is more geared towards thick-cut, steak fries, with a crisp exterior and soft interior. If you want thin fries that are 100% crisp all the way through, cut each potato as small as you’d like. Just keep an eye on them in the oven, as they may take less time to cook.

Place half the potatoes in a large plastic bag and add 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Seal the bag and shake it all around to evenly coat the potatoes with cornstarch. Open up the bag and add 1 tablespoon olive oil, then sealing and shaking again until coated. 

On the baking sheet, evenly space the fries with plenty of room in between each one, so they get crispy instead of steamed and softened. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste. Place in the oven. After 15 minutes, use a pair of tongs to flip each fry and return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes, depending on how dark you like your fries.

Prepare the other half of the potatoes in this same way—coating, cooking, flipping, etc.

Peach Muffins

                     Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour {I used half whole wheat flour}
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups vegetable oil {I used half applesauce}
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups peeled, pitted, and chopped peaches {about 4 peaches}
  • 2-3 TBSP milk {if your peaches are really ripe, they'll be juicy and you won't need as much milk!}
  • 2-3 TBSP Turbinado {raw} sugar
                            Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease 18 muffin cups.

In a large bowl, mix the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix the oil, eggs, and brown sugar. Stir the oil mixture into the flour mixture just until moist. Fold in the peaches. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups. Top with a light sprinkle of Turbinado Sugar {raw sugar.}

Bake 20-25 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. 
Cool 10 minutes before turning out onto wire racks to cool completely.
