Heres Mine:
1 package of unsweetened kool-aid (orange and tropical punch are my favorites) 2 teaspoons of sugar salt - I use about 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon **people use different mixtures depending on their taste, I like this version**
Combine and mix well. You can eat it with the following: Pickle Lemon Gum (dip your chewed gum in it over and over again until kool-aid is gone) any kind of sucker, blow pop, etc Apple Orange Sunflower Seeds Anything you can think of....some people sprinkle it over ice and munch away.
Another variation is to make it with sunflower seeds (as follows): Get a standard size mixing bowl fill it with sunflower seeds, several bags buy the pre-sugared kool-aid (the ones that come in round plastic containers with the measuring cup that doubles as the lid) and pour one lid full in it. Pour in about 2-3 packages of the unsweetened kool-aid packets (make sure they're the same flavor) Toss in about 1/2 cup of regular sugar then add water to moisten, not drench but to wet the mixture. Put the bowl in the microwave. The point is to make the water/sugar mixture sticky so that the seeds are coated by it.

I've posted this here before, but it is...
1. Unusual 2. A Recipe 3. A Treat
So...
Step 1: Make bacon, reserve the grease. (Its the best part)
Step 2: Take two slices of white bread, preferably Wonder Bread because its delicious, and nobody really knows what it is.
Step 3: Slice 1 large or 2 medium bananas. I slice them thin and layer them, but some like them thick. Personal preference.
Step 4: Slather each of the bread slices with peanut butter. Only on one side, moron.
Step 4: LIGHTLY butter the other two sides. Those would be the ones w/out the peanut butter on them.
Step 5: Layer 'nanners on the PEANUT BUTTER side of the bread. Not the butter side, but the PEANUT BUTTER side.
Step 6: Assemble sandwich, peanut butter side to peanut butter side. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP.
Step 7: Get Reserved Bacon Grease very hot.
Step 8: Fry Sandwich in bacon grease for about a minute per side. Until the outside turns golden brown and the peanut butter starts to ooze out the cracks.
Step 9: Eat!

The other night, I made a nice tasting drink. I mixed cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg, and sugar into a glass of milk. Surprisingly, it was pretty good. I recommend putting the cinnamon in before the milk though because I discovered that the cinnamon has a tendency to float.

I haven't made one in a long time but peanut butter and pickles make a great sandwich.
You need those super crunchy pickles to make it work though. Oh and no smooth peanut butter. It has to have peanuts in it to add more crunch.
Perfect sweet and sour mixture on two slices of bread.

Applebee's Baked French Onion Soup Don't even try to find this one on the menu at Applebee's, because it isn't there; though it's the most popular soup served each day at this huge restaurant chain. This is the first of several big-time soup clones we'll unveil here in the next few weeks to help get you through the cold winter months. And they're all a cinch to make. Just be sure you have some oven-safe soup bowls for this one, since we'll have to broil it a bit before serving. Under the gooey melted provolone of the original version you get from Applebee's is a unique round crouton that's made from bread similar to a hamburger bun. So that's exactly what we'll use in our clone. 3 tablespoons vegetable oil 6 medium white onions, sliced 8 cups beef broth (Swanson is best) 1 cup water 2 1/2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 5 plain hamburger buns 10 slices provolone cheese 10 teaspoons shredded parmesan cheese 1. Add 3 tablespoons oil to a large soup pot or saucepan over medium/high heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté for 20 minutes until the onions begin to soften and start to become translucent. You don't want them to brown. 2. Add the beef broth, water, salt, garlic powder and black pepper to the pan and bring mixture to a boil. When soup begins to boil, reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes. 3. To make the croutons cut off the top half of each top of the hamburger bun so that the bread is the same thickness as the bottom half of each bun. Throw the tops away. Now you should have 10 round pieces of bread -- 5 bottom buns, and 5 top buns with the tops cut off. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place the bread in the the oven directly on the rack and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until each piece is golden brown and crispy. Set these croutons aside until you need them. 4. When the soup is done, spoon about 1 cup into an oven-safe bowl. Float a crouton on top of the soup, then place a slice of provolone cheese on top of the crouton. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of shredded parmesan cheese over the provolone. 5. Place the bowl into your oven set to high broil. Broil the soup for 5 to 6 minutes or until the cheese is melted and starting to brown (you may need to broil longer if you are making more than one bowl at a time). Sprinkle an additional 1/2 teaspoon of shredded parmesan cheese over the top of the soup and serve. Repeat process to pre pare remaining servings.
Makes 10 servings.

Boston Market Meatloaf If you already have a recipe that claims to be a clone for this delicious meatloaf...you can now toss it out, purge if from your hard drive, burn all hard copies. No clone recipe that I've found yet -- and there are several circulating -- has come even close to the tender, tasty meatloaf you can get from this popular chain. Don't be fooled! To make a REAL clone, first thing you've got to do is use ground sirloin, just as the restaurant chain does. And then you need to know how to make the special sauce that goes into the meatloaf and on top (no it's not ketchup and it's not V-8). And there's no minced onion in there (just look at it!), or onion soup mix for that matter. So, search no more for the perfect clone of Boston Market's tasty meatloaf. You've now got the result of days and days of vigorous testing. Even if you don't normally enjoy meatloaf, this one you'll be a cravin'. 1 cup tomato sauce 1 1/2 tablespoons Kraft original barbecue sauce 1 tablespoon granulated sugar 1 1/2 pounds ground sirloin (10% fat) 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper dash garlic powder 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 2. Combine the tomato sauce, barbecue sauce and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Heat the mixture until it begins to bubble, stirring often, then remove it from the heat. 3. In a large bowl, add all but 2 tablespoons of the tomato sauce to the meat. Use a large wooden spoon or your hands to work the sauce into the meat until it is very well combined. 4. Combine the remaining ingredients with the ground sirloin-- flour, salt, onion powder and ground pepper. Use the wooden spoon or your hands to work the spices and flour into the meat. 5. Load the meat into a loaf pan (preferably a meatloaf pan with two sections which allows the fat to drain, but if you don't have one of those a regular loaf pan will work). Wrap foil over the pan and place it into the oven for 30 minutes. 6. After 30 minutes, take the meatloaf from the oven, remove the foil and, if you aren't using a meatloaf pan, drain the fat. 7. Using a knife, slice the meatloaf all the way through into 8 slices while it is still in the pan. This will help to cook the center of the meatloaf. Pour the remaining 2 tablespoons of sauce over the top of the meatloaf, in a stream down the center. Don't spread the sauce. 8. Place the meatloaf back into the oven, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes or until it is done. Remove and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serves 4.

Lone Star Steakhouse Chili When the weather gets cold it's time to fire up the stovetop. This chain makes a tasty chili that warms the bones on a nippy fall day. This clone recipe is easy-to-make, low-fat and delicious. And if it's super brisk outside, you might want to add an additional tablespoon of diced jalapeno to aggressively stoke those internal flames. 1 pound ground beef 1 diced onion 1 tablespoon diced fresh jalapeno pepper 1 15-ounce can kidney beans with liquid 1 14.5-ounce can peeled diced tomatoes 1 8-ounce can tomato sauce 1 cup water 1 tablespoon white vinegar 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon chili powder 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1 bay leaf Garnish grated cheddar cheese diced onion canned whole jalapeno chili peppers 1. Brown ground beef in a large saucepan over medium heat. Drain fat. 2. Add onion and pepper and sauté for about two minutes. 3. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Serve one cup in a bowl with the optional cheese, diced onion and whole jalapeno garnish on top.
Makes 4 servings.

Egg Rolls 1 lb. chinese cabbage (Napa) 2 stalks celery 1/2 lb. cooked shrimp 1/2 lb. cooked pork or chicken livers 10 water chestnuts 1/3 cup bamboo shoots 1 tsp. salt 1 tsp. sugar Liberal dash pepper 1/2 tsp. light soy sauce 1/4 tsp. sesame oil 1 beaten egg 10 egg roll skins 3 cups oil PREPARATION: Boil cabbage and celery until very tender. Drain and squeeze out excess water. Shred very fine and set aside to drain further. Parboil shrimp and fry or bake pork. Mince both. Shred water chestnuts and bamboo shoots. Mix all ingredients but egg together. Beat egg. Wrap filling in egg roll skins and seal with egg. COOKING: Heat oil in wok or deep fat fryer to 375 degrees and drop in egg rolls. When skin turns light golden brown, remove from oil and drain. (At this point restaurants refrigerate them and finish the cooking process as needed.) When cool, drop again into hot oil and fry until golden brown. Makes 10. The two stage deep frying method is actually a professional Chinese chefs' secret. It assures that the inside will be moist and not overcooked (as anything overcooked becomes dry) and the outside will be crisp.

Wendy's Chili Here's a favorite recipe for chili that clones the stuff served at the Wendy's chain. Dave Thomas, Wendy's founder, has been serving this chili since 1969, he year the first Wendy's opened its doors. Over the years the recipe has changed a bit, but this version here is an amazing copy of the version of chili served in the early 90's. Try topping it with some chopped onion and cheddar cheese, as you can request in the restaurant. 2 pounds ground beef One 29-ounce can tomato sauce One 29-ounce can kidney beans (with liquid) One 29-ounce can pinto beans (with liquid) 1 cup diced onion (1 medium onion) 1/2 cup diced green chili (2 chilies) 1/4 cup diced celery (1 stalk) 3 medium tomatoes, chopped 2 teaspoons cumin powder 3 tablespoons chili powder 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper 2 teaspoons salt 2 cups water 1. Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat; drain off the fat. 2. Using a fork, crumble the cooked beef into pea-size pieces. 3. In a large pot, combine the beef plus all the remaining ingredients, and bring to a simmer over low heat. Cook, stirring every 15 minutes, for 2 to 3 hours.
Makes about 12 servings.

Wendy's Spicy Chicken Fillet Sandwich There once was a time when Wendy's offered this sandwich for a "limited-time-only." Apparently the tasty zing from this breaded chicken sandwich won it many loyal customers and a permanent place on the fast-food chain's menu. Now you can recreate the spicy kick of the original with a secret blend of spices in the chicken's crispy coating. Follow the same stacking order as the original, and you've just made 4 sandwich clones at a fraction of the cost of the real thing. 6-8 cups vegetable oil 1/3 cup Frank's Original Red Hot Pepper Sauce 2/3 cup water 1 cup all-purpose flour 2 1/2 teaspoons salt 4 teaspoons cayenne pepper 1 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper 1 teaspoon onion powder 1/2 teaspoon paprika 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder 4 chicken breast fillets 4 plain hamburger buns 8 teaspoons mayonnaise 4 lettuce leaves 4 tomato slices 1. Preheat 6-8 cups of oil in a deep fryer to 350 degrees. 3. Combine the pepper sauce and water in a small bowl. 4. Combine the flour, salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, onion powder, paprika and garlic powder in another shallow bowl. 5. Pound each of the chicken pieces with a mallet until about 3/8-inch thick. Trim each breast fillet if necessary to help it fit on the bun. 6. Working with one fillet at a time, coat each piece with the flour, then dredge it in the diluted pepper sauce. Coat the chicken once again in the flour mixture and set it aside until the rest of the chicken is breaded. 7. Fry the chicken fillets for 8-12 minutes or until they are light brown and crispy. Remove the chicken to a rack or to paper towels to drain. 8. As chicken is frying, prepare each sandwich by grilling the face of the hamburger buns on a hot skillet over medium heat. Spread about 2 teaspoons of mayonnaise on the face of each of the inverted top buns. 9. Place a tomato slice onto the mayonnaise, then stack a leaf of lettuce on top of the tomato. 10. On each of the bottom buns, stack one piece of chicken. 11. Flip the top half of each sandwich onto the bottom half and serve hot.
Makes 4 sandwiches.

Olive Garden Pasta e Fagioli It's amazing how many lousy clones for this delicious chili-like soup from Olive Garden are floating around on the Web. Some are shared on message boards, others are displayed on sites in a collection of "actual restaurant recipes" (yeah, right!). But they all leave out obvious ingredients you can see, like the carrots, ground beef, or two kinds of beans. Others don't get the pasta right -- it's obviously ditali pasta (short little tubes). Then there's the recipe that really squeezed the seeds from my gourd -- one that's floating around in MasterCook format that lists "Top Secret Recipes" as the source. But, wait a minute! I've never before created a clone for this dish -- not here on the site, and not in any book. So, after logging some time over a chopping block, an open flame, and a couple tasty glasses of Merlot, out popped this puppy. And this is the one, kitchen cloners! If you want the taste of Pasta e Fagioli at home, this is the only recipe that will fool in a side -by-side taste test. Accept no other imitation imitation! 1 pound ground beef 1 small onion, diced (1 cup) 1 large carrot, julienned (1 cup) 3 stalks celery, chopped (1 cup) 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 14.5-ounce cans diced tomatoes 1 15-ounce can red kidney beans (with liquid) 1 15-ounce can great northern beans (with liquid) 1 15-ounce can tomato sauce 1 12-ounce can V-8 juice 1 tablespoon white vinegar 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon oregano 1 teaspoon basil 1/2 teaspoon pepper 1/2 teaspoon thyme 1/2 pound (1/2 pkg.) ditali pasta 1. Brown the ground beef in a large saucepan or pot over medium heat. Drain off most of the fat. 2. Add onion, carrot, celery and garlic and sauté for 10 minutes. 3. Add remaining ingredients, except pasta, and simmer for 1 hour. 4. About 50 minutes into simmer time, cook the pasta in 1 1/2 to 2 quarts of boiling water over high heat. Cook for 10 minutes or just until pasta is al dente, or slightly tough. Drain. 5. Add the pasta to the large pot of soup. Simmer for 5-10 minutes and serve.
Serves 8.

Chili's Southwestern Vegetable Soup If you like a soup that's packed with veggies, that's low in fat, and has some of that Southwestern zing to it, this is the one for you. Just toss all the ingredients in a pot and simmer. Garnish with some shredded cheese and crumbled tortillas, and prepare to take the chill off. 6 cups chicken broth (Swanson is best) 1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes, with juice 1 cup water 1 cup canned dark red kidney beans, with liquid 1 cup frozen yellow cut corn 1 cup frozen cut green beans 1 4-ounce can diced green chilies 1/2 cup diced Spanish onion 1/2 cup tomato sauce 6 corn tortillas, minced 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder dash garlic powder Garnish 1 cup grated cheddar/jack cheese blend 1 cup crumbled corn tortilla chips 1. Combine all the soup ingredients in a large saucepan or soup pot over high heat. Be sure to mince the corn tortillas into small pieces with a sharp knife before adding them to the soup. 2. Bring soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the soup has thickened and tortilla pieces have mostly dissolved. 3. To serve soup ladle 1 1/2 cups into a bowl. Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of the grated cheddar/jack cheese blend over the top of the soup, and then a heaping tablespoon of crumbled corn tortilla chips over the cheese.
Makes 6 servings.

Pay Day Candy Bars 5 caramel squares 1/4 cup milk 1 teaspoon peanut butter 1 tablespoon corn syrup 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar 20 caramel squares 1 tablespoon water 2 cups dry roasted peanuts (slightly crushed) Combine the first six ingredients in a sauce pan. Cook over low heat until the caramel has melted and stirs smooth. Add 3/4 cup powdered sugar and stir to mix in. Reserve the remaining sugar. Turn heat to medium high. Using a candy thermometer, cook caramel mixture until exactly 230F while stirring often. Remove from heat, let cool for a few minutes, and add remaining powdered sugar. Use a hand mixer to beat in the sugar for a couple minutes. Let candy cool for 20 minutes. Divide candy into eight equal pieces and form each into 4 inch logs. Place on wax paper and let cool for one hour. In a double boiler, add remaining caramels and water. Melt until smooth. Remove from heat, but keep hot water under the caramel so it doesn't firm up. Use a pastry brush to coat one of the logs with hot caramel. Roll in peanuts in a shallow dish. If any spots are not completely covered in peanuts, apply more caramel and stick back in peanuts. Repeat with the remaining logs. Allow to cool completely before eating.

KFC Cole Slaw
If you've ever seen a clone recipe for KFC Cole Slaw floating around on the Internet, it probably looks like this. That's because this formula has become one of the most copied & pasted recipes from the first book, "Top Secret Recipes." It's also one of the most requested recipes on the TSR Message Board. So, to fulfill all those requests, and to stake claim to a recipe that's rarely sourced as a TSR original, here's the killer recipe to clone the world's best slaw. And, because I love to out-clone the "copycats", I'm going to take it one step further. Tune in next week for an original version of this clone recipe that tastes just like the real thing but includes only five ingredients...and is completely fat free! Don't be lieve it? Be here next Monday.
8 cups finely chopped cabbage (about 1 head) 1/4 cup shredded carrot (1 medium carrot) 2 tablespoons minced onion 1/3 cup granulated sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon pepper 1/4 cup milk 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/4 cup buttermilk 1 1/2 tablespoons white vinegar 2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice 1. Be sure cabbage and carrots are chopped up into very fine pieces (about the size of rice). 2. Combine the sugar, salt, pepper, milk, mayonnaise, buttermilk, vinegar, and lemon juice in a large bowl and beat until smooth. 3. Add the cabbage, carrots, and onion, and mix well. 4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

KFC Macaroni & Cheese
Here's a clone for another of KFC's famous side dishes. We'll use easy-to-melt Velveeta as the main ingredient for the cheese sauce with its very smooth texture. Then a bit of cheddar cheese is added to give the sauce a sharp cheddary zing like the original. It's a very simple recipe that will take only 15 minutes to prepare. That's great news if you're a lazy cook like me who wants to dig right into the tasty vittles.
6 cups water 1 1/3 cups elbow macaroni 4 ounces Velveeta cheese 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese 2 tablespoons whole milk 1/4 teaspoon salt
1. Bring water to a boil over high heat in a medium saucepan. Add elbow macaroni to the water and cook it for 10 to 12 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. 2. While the macaroni is boiling, prepare the cheese sauce by combining the remaining ingredients in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir often as the cheese melts into a smooth consistency. 3. When the macaroni is done, strain it and then pour it back into the same pan, without the water. 4. Add the cheese sauce to the pan and stir gently until the macaroni is well-coated with the cheese. Serve immediately while hot.
Makes about 3 servings.

KFC Potato Salad
Here's a simple clone for the potato salad that is purchased as a side dish from America's largest fast food chicken chain. Some of the skin is left on the potatoes in the real thing, so you don't have to peel them too thoroughly (great news for lazy cooks like me!). Just be sure to chop your potatoes into cubes that are approximately 1/2-inch thick, and then let the salad marinate for at least 4 hours so that the flavors can properly develop. If you let the salad chill overnight, it tastes even better. Tune in for more KFC clone recipes each week this month!
2 pounds russet potatoes 1 cup mayonnaise 4 teaspoons sweet pickle relish 4 teaspoons sugar 2 teaspoons minced white onion 2 teaspoons prepared mustard 1 teaspoon vinegar 1 teaspoon minced celery 1 teaspoon diced pimentos 1/2 teaspoon shredded carrot 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley 1/4 teaspoon pepper dash salt 1. Lightly peel the potatoes (you don't have to get all of the skin off) then chop them into bite-size pieces and boil in 6 cups of boiling, salted water for 7-10 minutes. The potato chucks should be tender, yet slightly tough in the middle when done. Drain and rinse potatoes with cold water. 2. In a medium bowl, combine remaining ingredients and whisk until smooth. 3. Poured drained potatoes into a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the potatoes and mix until well-combined. 4. Cover and chill for at least 4 hours. Overnight is best.
Makes 6 cups (about 8 servings).
