PEBBLES MARSHMALLOW CRISPY TREATS



so, this is probably sac-religious, but i didn't want my bag of marshmallows to go to waste, and the only handy crispy cereal i had on hand were cocoa pebbles®. on the box there were also suggestions of other post cereals that can be used: honey bunches of oats, honeycombs, fruity pebbles, and banana nut crunch. maybe if i get adventurous i'll post my experience.
believe me, i love the original rice krispies treat, but i do love these cocoa pebbles! plus, it will be a tasty treat for tomorrow's super bowl (assuming the husband doesn't get his grubby little hands all over them).

PEBBLES MARSHMALLOW CRISPY TREATS RECIPE
  • 1/4 c (1/2 stick) butter or margarine
  • 1 pkg (10-1/2 oz) miniature marshmallows (6 cups)
  • 13 oz cocoa pebbles cereal® (about 8-1/2 cups)
microwave butter in 4-qt microwavable bowl on high 45 seconds or until melted. add marshmallows; toss to coat. microwave 1-1/2 seconds or until marshmallows are completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring after 45 seconds.


add cereal; mix well.

press firmly into greased foil-lined 13x9-inch pan. cool. cut into 24 squares.

my yummy tip: if you happen to be a crispy treat virgin, make you add water to your hands before pressing the final mix into the pan. it keeps them from sticking and being unmanageable...although it is fabulous to get a little of the strays on your fingers for some finger-licking fun!

KOREAN BBQ SHORT RIBS (GAL-BI)

the first time i tried korean bbq short ribs, i was having dinner with a past boyfriend and his parents. it was pretty good, they had an indoor grill and we used that right at the table to grill these sectioned off morsel. but, the next time i tried them, i felt like it was the first time all over again. my favorite all-you-can-eat korean bbq restaurant is in mountain view, ginseng korean bbq & tofu . they have quality meats and the marinade is just right. and, if i'm in need of a quick fix, i go to westfield mall in san francisco to make my way to sorabol korean restaurant , where they have the best food court korean bbq i've ever encountered. so, when you love something so much, the best idea is to learn how to make it...and it turned out to be super easy.

BESTILLA...MOROCCAN CHICKEN PIE

the first time i had bestilla was at a moroccan restaurant in san francisco, el mansour , which was served family-style. think along came polly -esque, minus the heat and profusely sweating ben stiller. great image to start a recipe entry, right? anyway, this dish is a meal in itself. the middle eastern-spiced chicken is wrapped in flaky phyllo dough and topped with powdered sugar, making it sweet & savory. i will say that this dish is tasking...this is the first time i used phyllo dough and it is incredibly fragile, but so worth it! i think this is one that will be made for special occasions only.

ALEXANDER'S STEAKHOUSE INVITES A BEAR FOR HIS BIRTHDAY

it's been quite awhile since i posted and if you missed me, i apologize. cute ox origami at the hostess desk for my first post of the year, i wanted to highlight a wonderful night spent at alexander's steakhouse for the husband's (aka "bear") birthday. i call him bear because he's a little hairy, cuddly, docile, and bigger than me (in the picture below, i'm wearing 4in heels and barely shoulder height). there are so many places i'd love to take him to experience food, but was inspired by a post from my friend regina when she took a friend for an expensive steak dinner. i thought this would be the perfect place to celebrate the husband - he likes steak and good food and i was intrigued by the restaurant that took the place of bacar. the service is impeccable - a little too informational at times, but outstanding nonetheless. the ambience can be romantic, intimate, cool, whatever you need it to be depending on your visit. what's also ve...
