How to Make Pineapple Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Author: Yuri // Category: , , ,

Several years ago, I was given this recipe for pineapple stuffed chicken breasts and I must say...it has become a family favorite. What I really like about this recipe is that its easy to prepare with readily available ingredients. It does take an hour to bake, but it will be well worth the wait. This recipe will make 4 hearty servings.

Tip: If you don't have a can of crushed pineapples, you can use tidbits or rings...just use a masher or food processor to crush them up.

How to Make a Delicious Pineapple Dessert Pie

Author: Yuri // Category: , ,

When it comes to making homemade dessert pies, you don't have to slave for hours making a recipe that is difficult and time consuming. This particular recipe was given to me 25 years ago by my grandmother and to this day, it is one of our favorites to make.

You can purchase two pre-made pie shells or make your own pie crust using your favorite recipe. Once the pie has completely cooled to room temperature, you will want to store it in the refrigerator.

When it comes to serving it, I recommend vanilla ice cream, vanilla yogurt or some whipped topping. If desired, you can place a few fresh cherries on top of your chosen topping right before serving.

Pineapple Pie Recipe

3/4 cup granulated sugar

3 tablespoons quick cooking tapioca

1/4 teaspoon table salt

4 cups fresh pineapple, chopped into pieces

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

2 unbaked pastry shells

1 tablespoon butter or margarine

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a small mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, tapioca and table salt. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped pineapple pieces and lemon juice. Gently stir the sugar mixture into the pineapple mixture to combine all ingredients together. Let this mixture stand at room temperature for approximately 15 minutes.

Pour mixture into an unbaked pastry shell and dot the top with butter or margarine. Use the second pastry shell to make a top crust, seal the edges with a tad of water if necessary.

Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 35 minutes or until done. Cool pie to room temperature and then refrigerate.

Sore Throat - Soothe Your Sore Throat Naturally

Author: Yuri // Category: , ,

When flu season is upon us, other viruses circulating in our communities contribute to cold symptoms such as sore throats, which make us feel cranky and uncomfortable.

Since viruses are the major cause of sore throats, there are no medications to alleviate them, however, there are certain natural remedies that will make your sore throat feel better while your body fights off the infection.

First of all, stay hydrated. If your sore throat is accompanied by other upper respiratory symptoms, such as runny nose, nasal congestion, or cough, drink chicken broth a couple times a day. Recent research confirmed what moms always told us about chicken soup: it definitely helps when we're sick! According to the scientific findings, chicken broth thins mucus in the respiratory system, stops excessive mucus production, and relieves nasal congestion. Therefore, chicken broth will lessen coughing and might decrease postnasal drip that often results in a sore throat.

Excessive coughing can also cause a sore throat. Since cough medications are ineffective in battling the cough, reach for honey. Any honey will do, however, researchers studied buckwheat honey and announced that it is more effective in cough control than dextromethorphan, the DM component of over-the-counter cough suppressants. I recommend that my patients take 1 teaspoon of honey 4 times a day. It can be eaten off the spoon, ingested with warm water or tea with lemon, or drizzled on toast with butter, pancakes, or graham crackers. (Note: honey should not be given to children younger than 1 year as it may cause botulism).

Consider these remedies to relive your sore throat:

Gargle with chamomile tea--it has anti-inflammatory properties.

Drink orange juice. It might sting, but the vitamin C will numb your throat instantaneously.

Munch on raw almonds. They contain an aspirin-like compound that works wonders, not only to relieve migraine headaches, but also sore throats.

Eat fresh or canned pineapple. Pineapple contains bromelain, an enzyme with anti-inflammatory properties.

Sip on a warm tea with honey and lemon. Honey will coat your throat and the lemon juice will quickly numb it.

If your sore throat persists beyond 3-4 days, or is accompanied by a fever, rash, or bad headache, you have a difficult time swallowing your saliva, or you choke on food, see your health care provider ASAP.
