Chicken Spaghetti Casserole, Tres Leches cake, and Stir-fry Green Beans

Hi Ladies, long time no post! Back in March, I have made couple things that I really like, and I would like to share with you. Of course, there is a pasta dish! Ha!

Pretty simple... I used Chicken, onion, green pepper, pimentos, cheddar cheese, cayenne pepper, can of cream of chicken soup, can of cream of mushroom soup, seasoned salt and of course spaghetti. I cooked the chicken and shredded the meat. I then cooked the spaghetti and drained. 


Then mixed everything except a little cheese which saved for later. Then poured into a baking pan, and top with the remained cheese. Put it in the oven and baked until bubbling, and it's ready to eat!!!




Tres Leches Cake has become one of my favorite dessert now... Very sweet, but I like it! Before I made it, i didn't know what Tres Leches means, then people who ate my cake told me that Tres Leches is spanish, and it means Three Milk... oh, it makes sense, because the cake has a sauce that is made of 3 different kinds of milk! So the cake is very simple, I bake the cake by following the recipe. And I took the cake out(upside down) onto a bigger pan and let it cool down.


Then I stabbed (my favorite verb) the cake with a fork a lot to make many tiny holes, and I slowly poured the cream "sauce" which was made of condense milk, evaporated milk, and heavy cream on top of the cake. Then wait... for at least 1/2 hour for the cake to absorb all the juice!!!



Lastly, I spread a layer of icing, which is heavy cream and sugar. And then EAT!


Ok, I think the following recipe is the easiest but, it's still pretty tasty! I stir-fried some green beans with garlic. 


And while the green beans being cooked, I combined soy sauce, brown sugar, and peanut butter, yup, you read it right, peanut butter in a big bowl! The recipe asked for sesame seed too, but I didn't have any...


After the green beans were cooked, I put them into the sauce, and mixed them, and again, it's ready to EAT!

I am Bacckk!

Hi Ladies...


How are you both doing? Sorry I have been hiding in the woods for past couple of months (basically being lazy;). One of the reasons for not posting any recipes is that I couldn't find the cable to upload pics from my camera. When I shared my dilemma with Phebez, she suggested getting a sd card for my camera to transfer pics. I even thought of getting one from 'Walmart', but my laz ass stopped me. Anyway, long story short, today I found out that my camera had a sd card in it all along, even though its slightly smaller in size than regular sd card. Its compatible with my desktop so I can upload my pics now..such a relief..this issue has been haunting me for days ladies...


I made a pound cake for Easer..We celebrated easter at my aunt's house, so we took the cake over there..Since the lunch was like a chinese buffet, I dont know how many peaople even got to the desert course..Thanks for sharing the recipe Phebs.."Grandmother's Pound Cake I" from allrecipes.com. It came out well!
