Uncle Brett's Turkey Marinade

I don't recall exactly when I jumped on the marinating bandwagon, but I almost never grill meat cuts of meat without marinating it first.  You just can't beat the flavor!  This particular recipe was given to me by my Uncle Brett.  His family likes it so much they have this in the place of a Thanksgiving Turkey!  This marinade is great for turkey breasts, but can also be used on chicken with great results.









Uncle Brett's Turkey Marinade


2 cups sprite
1 cup soy sauce
1 cup corn oil
1/4 tsp horseradish (optional)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
3-4 turkey breasts

Whisk all ingredients together in a large bowl.  Pound turkey breasts to an even width (about 1/2 inch), cut into pieces if desired, and place in the marinade.  Cover and let it soak overnight.  Grill until cooked through, and internal temperature has reached at least 165 degrees F.

* I grilled these on my Griddler Gourmet, but preheating the unit to High and cooking in the closed position for about 3 minutes.

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate. 

Bread Twists

These are my new go-to bread sticks for two reasons - taste and time. They have a wonderful buttery/garlic flavor and the kosher salt adds a delightful savory crunch.  The other thing I love about these is how quickly they come together.  It only takes one hour from start to finish.  One hour!  That's almost unheard of for a yeast bread.  Try these out next time you want some bread with your dinner but are short on time.
