Al Fresco Buffalo Links


We tried these Al Fresco Buffalo Chicken wing flavored chicken sausage bites, they were really tasty. I wrapped eat link in crescent roll dough. I do not have an after photo because the sausage disappear soon after they were served. i would definitely buy these again.

Jalepeno Corn Bread




We tried this cornbread tonight with the chicken tortilla soup. I would not buy this product again. It was pretty much flavorless, other than a hint of pepper. I was not crazy about the texture at all, way to grainy. I purchased the product on sale and was very interested in trying it. I would not buy the product again, even on sale. I enjoy homemade cornbread, I will stick to homemade.

Pillsbury Flaky Twist With Chocolate Icing



These new cinnamon rolls were on sale the other day at Bj's plus I had a coupon so i figured we would try them out. Here is a list of ingredients:
Enriched Flour Bleached (Wheat Flour, Niacin, Ferrous Sulfate, Thiamin Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Water, Partially Hydrogenated Soybean and/or Cottonseed Oil, Sugar, Dextrose, Baking Powder (Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Baking Soda, Sodium Aluminum Phosphate), Wheat Starch, Salt, Corn Starch, Cocoa Processed with Alkali, Corn Syrup Solids, Cinnamon, Mono and Diglycerides, Vital Wheat Gluten, Datem, Xanthan Gum, Whey, Citric Acid, Polysorbate 60, Potassium Sorbate (Preservative), Artificial Flavor, Colored with Yellow 5, Red 40, and Other Color Added.
Overall the rolls were simple to prepare:
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray or grease cookie sheet. Separate dough into 8 rounds, unroll into strips. Make a loop in center of strip as shown. Crisscross ends of strip twice, pinch ends together to secure. Bake 11 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 2 minutes. Spread with icing. Super simple but the flavor was a little pasty and almost lard like. I liked the flakyness of the pastry, quick and easy, and great for presentation with company. I also liked the fact that you are given 2 other reipes to try, that were printed on the box. One recipe was with peanut butter and the other recipe was almond and cherry. I do not think I will be trying the product anytime soon due to the overall flavor of the pastry. The frosting was tasty but the pastry needs improvement.

Reese's Box Mix



I bought this mix the other day at Sam's Club. The bars were tasty but I feel the mix is overpriced. If you really want peanut butter and chocolate, just buy the Rees's cups.

Vincent's Sauce with Shrimp and Linguine

Tonight we ate Linguine with fried shrimp( I just floured some jumbo shrimp and fried for a few minutes on each side) and Vincent's famous sauce. Vincent's is located in little Italy NYC and has an excellent sauce. You can purchase the Hot, Sweet or Medium sauce. We had the hot and mixed a bit of sweet to tone it down a little. If you want to check out the website for location it is:Original Vincent's Restaurant
