Grinch Cake

When I saw this recipe on Oh Bite It I knew it had to be made.
I don't care what time of year it is, we all need a gooey green cake in our lives!

We brought this to a friend's house for a party, and it was certainly a conversation starter!

The ripe banana is not a powerful flavor, but it adds so much moistness, especially when dealing with a boxed cake mix.

I did mine in a 9 x 13 (easier to transport), but I think two 9 inch rounds with the frosting between the layers would be pretty cool too.

Ingredients:

1 Box yellow or white cake mix

(additional ingredients required per cake box)

2 Ripe bananas

Green food coloring

Frosting (white or green)

Chocolate sprinkles

Directions:

1. Mix cake batter per box instructions

2. Mash bananas with a fork and add to batter

3. Pour cake mix into desired pan size

4. Drop a few food coloring drops and swirl around batter

5. Bake per box directions for your size pan

6. If using white frosting, dye it green

7. Add 2 Tbsp chocolate sprinkles to the frosting

8. Frost cooled cake with goopy frosting

9. Sprinkle with additional chocolate sprinkles

Sweet and Sour Chicken

I love my random recipe cards, they always add little helpful tips.
Tips make my day just that much better!

• Bake chicken in the sauce then cool. Refrigerate, well covered, for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 325 oven for 20 minutes before serving.
• Make two meals at the same time. Bake a double batch of chicken and chill the extra breasts in some of the sauce. Drain, slice into thin strips, and serve on shredded lettuce with tomato wedges and dressing.
• Two cups of hot cooked angel hair pasta is an elegant substitute for the rice in this dish

Ingredients:

6 Tbsp Olive oil

6 Tbsp Soy sauce

6 Tbsp Honey

3 Tbsp White vinegar

1 ½ Tsp Dried Thyme

1 ½ Tsp Paprika

½ Tsp Cayenne pepper

½ Tsp Ground allspice

1 Tsp Pepper

4 Chicken breasts

2 Cups hot cooked white rice

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375

2. Combine oil, soy sauce, honey, vinegar, thyme, paprika, cayenne, allspice, and pepper in a shallow baking dish. Mix well.

3. Pierce both sides of each chicken breast with a fork

4. Place chicken in baking dish, turn chicken several times with tongs

5. Bake chicken for 30 minutes

6. Serve chicken over rice
