Cheesy Chicken Nachos With Doritos#SundayFunday

These Doritos are with melted gouda cheese, homemade refried beans, spicy  chicken mince  in taco seasoning and a sprinkling of coriander, they are fantastic.  Whatever you would normally use on your nachos just use on the Doritos. Pop the tray into the oven at 180°C for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese has  just melted. That’s it, easy, peasy and delicious snack or appetizer to serve for a party.

Ingredients
Doritos
Chicken Mince
Homemade Taco Seasoning
Shredded Cheddar Cheese or Gouda
Homemade Refried Beans
Sliced Onion
Chopped Scallions Greens

For The Chicken Mince With Taco Seasonings
½ Kg Chicken Mince
2 Tablespoons Chopped Onions
1 Tablespoon Taco Seasoning

Method
For The Chicken Mince With Taco Seasonings
In a large sauté pan, cook the chicken mince, breaking it up, for about 4 -5 minutes. Add onions, homemade taco seasoning sauté until the onion is translucent. Set aside.
Place a layer of Doritos on the serving dish. Top with homemade refried beans. Then the shredded cheese (I used Gouda cheese).

Bake at 180°C for 5-7 minutes or until cheese is melted
Don’t bake the Doritos nachos too long or they’ll start to get a little crispy on top. 
Garnish them with sliced onions & chopped scallion greens.
These tasted so very, very good! My friends enjoyed these. You will definitely want to make these nachos with Doritos the next time you have a party or a get together. They make a wonderful snack, party dish, appetizer or even a casual dinner.

Loaded Veggie & Potato Soup In a Bread Bowl#SoupSwappers

If you love flavorful soups then you’ll definitely want to try this one. Soups are always good but with the potatoes and creamy cheesy consistency, this soup is too good to be true and delicious!
Ingredients 
1 Cube Veg Seasoning
1 Large Carrot - peeled & diced
2 Medium Potatoes - peeled & cubed into small pieces
1 Small Onion - chopped
1 Head Broccoli washed and diced small
1
½  Cup Water
1 Tablespoon Butter
1 Tablespoon Homemade Soup Mix
500Ml Milk
Shredded Cheddar Cheese - as required
Salt To Taste
½ Teaspoon Minced Garlic
½ Teaspoon Lemon pepper powder


Method
In a pressure pan add half the water, vegetable cube, carrots, potatoes, broccoli and onion. Bring to a boil, cover and take two whistles on high flame. Let the cooker cool.
To Make The Bread Bowl
Take a crusty round bread, slice the top a little, then scoop the center to make a well. Bread bowl is ready.
In a large sauce pan/pot melt butter, add the onion and garlic cook for a minute. Whisk in the soup mix and cook for another minute (or until golden brown). Add in milk and whisk till until the sauce starts to thicken. Add in the veggies and all the stock, bring this to a boil, stirring it gently. Let it simmer for 2 minutes on low flame. Now add the cheese and stir until it is all melted. Add lemon pepper powder and taste for salt (add salt only after tasting). Make it a thinner consistency add a little more milk accordingly (since the bread will absorb most of the soup liquid). 
Serve warm in a bread bowl with a generous sprinkle of cheddar cheese.

My Notes
Serve more soup ( in a seperate bowl) when you are ready to serve, since the bread will absorb most of the liquid. By the time I took pics the soup had been absorbed by the bread.

Fluffy Yummy Banana Pancakes#SundayFunday

These pancakes were really yummy! Perfectly fluffy and delicious, has a perfect amount of banana and sweetness.
I made exactly 6 large pancakes (about the size of a saucer each) and I could only eat about two. You do have to make sure you cook it long enough on the second side when you make them this large.
You can also switch out half of the flour for whole wheat for an extra healthy option. I made these for Sunday Brunch and we loved them.

Ingredients
For The Wet Ingredients
1 Cup Milk
1 Large Egg - lightly beaten
2 Tablespoons Melted Butter - I used salted
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract 
For The Dry Ingredients
1½ Cups All Purpose flour
3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
1 Tablespoon Baking powder
¼ Teaspoon Salt
1 Cup Mashed Bananas
For The Topping
Maple Syrup
Mini Chocolate Chips

Method 
To Make the Batter
In a blender jar, blend together the wet ingredients along with the banana and pulse it 2 or three times.
In a larger bowl, combine the dry ingredients and mix it well. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and fold together gently until just combined (do not over mix the batter).
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Heat a teaspoon of butter. Add pancake batter ½ cup per pancake in the center (do not spread this batter). Cover with a lid and cook until bubbles form on top when the top is cooked then flip . Cook for another minute or two or until golden brown.
Serve with maple syrup and chocolate chips to your pancake stack. Devour ...Enjoy!!
