arugula

we eat our beets and chard and arugula and omegas and yogurt and beans and lentils and acai berries and greentea and prunes and redwine.we bake our own bread and whip up real mayo. we do have more fun with purist nonsense (fried water). 'just pancakes' works when our potato chip coupons expire.we are simply challenged in the $$; nada foodstamps.

Flaming Hot Cheetos Meat Loaf baddrink.blogspot

2 lbs of ground beef2 eggs12 pack of beer ( one to add to the meatloaf for flavor the other 11 to drink while cooking )2/3 cup of crushed Flaming Hot Cheetos1/3 cup crushed crackers1 1/4 teaspoons chili powder1 1/4 teaspoons seasoning salt1/4 cup ketchup1/3 cup chopped jalapenos (optional but recommended ) 1/3 cup finely chopped Onions ( again optional ) 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper1/2 cup of shredded cheese ( again optional)1 muffin pan put all the ingredients in a bowl except for the cheese,the beer,and the ketchup of course and mix them up a like your playing with playdoh. A good tip is to wear some plastic gloves. That red dye in the cheetos is pretty harsh and hard as hell to come off , so not only did i wear gloves i smashed the cheetos in a zip lock bag. Even doing that and washing my hands numerous times i can look down at my fingers right now and see a pinkish stained hue. After your done mixing the ingredients up start making balls of the now neon red meat and putting it in the muffin pan. Dont worry about spraying any nonstick stuff on the pan the meat will make its own grease and pull apart from the pan so make the balls pretty big ( ok i didnt know this and mine turned out tiny ). When you got the pan full top off the meat muffins with some ketchup as a glaze, or a little bit of your favorite hot sauce for some more heat. Im not sure what transformation happens as ketchup bakes but is it just me or does it taste better?Now that your tray is ready fire up the grill, sure you could do it in the oven but why? its nice out and this is man meat loaf not meant for the oven. Just turn the burner on a low setting and let it preheat for a couple of minutes with the lid closed. After youve given it a few minutes to warm up put the muffin tray on the grill and shut the lid.It took my crappy old grill about 20 minutes to cook them but i would check them about every 5 minutes or so. When they have been on the grill for about 10 minutes poor some beer over each of the muffins so it mixes with the grease around the meat for a little added flavor. If you want you can also add some shredded cheese on top of the loafs when you add the beer its optional of course. Check out the difference in the colors of the meat in the two different trays on the grill , can you tell which side is cheeto loaf?They didnt turn out bad for the first run as a matter of fact they where pretty good. Just one thing i might do different next time is make larger meat muffins, they really shrank.
