Crock Pot Fondue

Posted on February 25, 2013 by Quick Chef | 2 Comments

Tweet Easy Classic Dipping There are three basic cooking mediums for fondue: cheese, chocolate, and oil.

TweetMmm, this dip is amazing! Plus I can make it very easily with my soy sour cream if I don’t want to share with the family.

Meatball Kabob Appetizers

Posted on December 31, 2012 by Quick Chef | 1 Comments

TweetConsidering how much we love meatball appetizers I can’t believe I don’t have some recipes for making them myself.

TweetThis appetizer has so many directions you can take it. Low carb, low fat, non-dairy. The options are plentiful and so is the flavor no matter what you choose.

Posted on December 13, 2012 by Quick Chef | 0 Comments

TweetHosting a holiday party? Then you know it’s impossible to please everyone on your list.

TweetThis is an amazingly yummy and easy recipe to make. The sauce is thick so be careful of over cooking and having it burn on the bottom. If you want it to be a little more saucier just add another 1/4-1/2 cup cran-apple juice. Of course you can make the recipe even better if you use homemade meatballs. Since the…
