How the Grinch Stole Christmas Dinner

Last December I did a 25 days of Christmas Goodies, this year my budget (and waist lie) couldn't handle that, so I'm doing a few themed dinners this month, and my first one was, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and this dinner is a breakfast dinner.
 Roast Beast
OK, my 'roast' doesn't have anything to do with roasting. It's actually a skillet dish, that is very delicious, and extremely easy to make!
4 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 onion, diced/sliced
6 TBS oil
1 green pepper
2 zucchinis, peeled and cubed
1 turkey ham, cubed
2 tomatoes, cubed
1 cup cheddar cheese (I didn't measure I just used my hand and eyed it)
In a skillet over medium heat, heat the potatoes, onion and oil. Cook the potatoes until golden and almost tender. Stir in the green pepper and zucchini and cook until tender. Add the turkey ham and tomatoes, making sure to stir and top with the cheese. Cover and cook 5 minutes or until the cheese is all melted.


Who Hash
This "recipe" really isn't a recipe, it's more of a..here's another way to cook it.
1 (15oz) can corned beef hash
6 eggs
Preheat the oven to 400. Thoroughly grease 6 muffin cups. Divided the corned beef hash amongst the muffin cups, press it into the bottom and up the sides (I used my fingers). You're goal is to form a 'shell' to hold you egg. Break an egg into each cup (you can poke the yolk with a fork if you want-if you don't you'll get a sunny side up egg). Bake 15-20 minutes or until egg is cooked to desired doneness.


Who Pudding
1 small box white chocolate instant pudding mix
2 cups milk
1 small tub cool whip
24 oreos
2 cups mini marchmallows
Mix the pudding mix and milk together for 2 minutes (make sure you don't have lumps), now stir in the remaining ingredients. Refrigerate until ready to serve (you can serve it right away, it just won't be as set.)

Muddy Buddies (Puppy Chow)

8 cups of Rice Cereal squares (Chex)
2 cup of raisins
1-1/2 cups chocolate chips
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup butter or margarine
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar




In a medium microwavable bowl, add chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter. Microwave on High for 1 minute and stir. Microwave 30 seconds longer and stir mixture until smooth. Stir in vanilla. In a bowl, pour melted chocolate over cereal and raisins, stir to evenly coat. Now, I use a bowl that has a lid, but you can use a zip lock bag, spoon mixture into bowl (you can do a little at a time if you want), add the powder sugar, put the lid on and shake until everything is evenly coated.

Fried Ice Cream

Yes, you read that title right, fried as in oil, ice cream. It's a lot easier that it sounds.
Oil to fry the ice cream in
Vanilla ice-cream
1 cup crushed frosted (or just corn) flakes
1 tbs sugar (or 2 tbs is using corn flakes)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
Mix together the cereal, sugar and cinnamon. Scoop out two large scoops of the ice cream, quickly roll each ice cream ball in the cereal mixture, place on wax paper and place in freezer for 30 minutes. Beat the eggs, remove the ice cream from freezer, dip it into the eggs, then roll the ice cream into the cereal mixture, making sure to coat it well.
Place it back into the freezer for 30 more minutes (you want the ice-cream really cold and hard). If you want more crunch and coating you can repeat the egg/cereal/freezer step.
Now, heat the oil in pan (about an inch of oil), one at a time (keeping the other in the freezer until ready to make) carefully place the ice cream into the hot oil (400 degrees). It should only take 15-30 seconds each side, brown on all sides.
OR-you can use a pot/deep fryer to lower the entire ice cream ball into.
Serve immediately, topped with honey, chocolate syrup, whipped topping, whatever sounds good to you!
