Baked Avocado Fries

Submitted by Nicole Lescarbeau Sutorius 

1/4 cup flour
1 tsp kosher salt
2 large eggs, beaten
1 1/4 cups panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
2 firm-ripe medium avocados, pitted, peeled, and sliced into 1/2-in. wedges

Grated parmesan for serving (optional)




Preheat oven to 450.

Coat avocado slices in the four, then egg, then panko. Spread on a cooling rack that has been sprayed with non-stick spray, then place on a cookie sheet. Spray the top of the wedges with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, then bake for about 20 minutes at 450, or until they are golden brown (I turned my oven up to 500 for the last 5 minutes).

Ham & Cheese Biscuits

Submitted by Angela Johnson

1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup (1 stick) cold butter, cut into pieces
1 cup shredded cheese (I used a Mexican blend)
1 cup minced ham (I used Canadian bacon)
2/3 cup buttermilk

Preheat oven to 450 degrees

Sift flour, baking powder, and baking soda into bowl. Add butter and mix until it resembles coarse bread crumbs. Stir in cheese, ham, and buttermilk to make soft dough.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly. Roll out dough 1/2 inch think. Cut out biscuits with a 2 inch round cutter (I used a glass). Place on a greased baking sheet.

Bake about 10 minutes or until browned (Mine only took 8)
