MY 2012 COUNTDOWN SNACKS - SLOOPY JOES AND CHEESY NACHOS



So far I haven't had any experience celebrating new year countdown in public. I hate the crowd and I hate stressing myself to look for parking space. The best is watching all these excitement at home..more relaxing...more food and less headache. This year it's the same, after all the evening celebrations of Tyca's and Oden's little birthday..I'm already exhausted, nevertheless never want to be left out and it's also fun to have a small family gathering...makan...makan...and watching TV, I have to create a little party at home. My children's friend were at home spending the week end with us so...it's fun with the crowd that I had.  To me even without city celeberations, it's possible to turn 2012 countdown into a time for family.

Again chef at home have to put the thinking hat for foods and drink to celebrate the late night excitement. We still have the birthday party food...I just added some Sloopy Joe's a real hot and satisfying Sloopy Joe and Cheesy Nachos. This Nacho's was a great HIT, can't stop munching it. Yeah as for drinks Tyca's made food punch...so there goes my family affairs on 2012 New Year Countdown.

Once again HAPPY NEW YEAR to ALL and may this year brings more luck, happiness, money, health...etc...... and ALL THE BEST

RACHEL RAY'S RECIPE

1 1/4 pounds ground beef sirloin
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons to 1 tablespoon steak seasoning blend, such as McCormick brand Montreal Seasoning

Reduce heat to simmer and cook Sloppy Joe mixture 5 minutes longer. Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, pile sloppy meat onto toasted, buttered bun bottoms and cover with bun tops. Serve with your favorite sides or sliced tomatoes seasoned with salt and pepper, dill pickles .




Bab-bab tahun baru ini saya memang tak pernah meraikanya malah tidak pernah pun membawa anak-anak keluar melihat celebrations ini. Kalau teringin sangat hendak tenguk and have New Year Fun tenguk aje di TV...sama aje...tak payah hendak fening..fening...berpusu-pusu..mana nak cari parking...mana dengan  berimpit...impit. bagi saya celebrate di rumah menghadap TV lagi best. Tahun ini sama juga..lagi pula sekarang udah duduk Ipoh tak benda yang excitednya...kita orang anak beranak...hanya duduk mengadap TV aje.

Makanan birthday Tyca and Oden masih banyak...tugas anak-anak clearkan semua..supaya tidak membazir saya cuma buat makanan ringan aje..malam tu tidak makan nasi saya buat Sloopy Joe's ala Rachel Ray dan Cheesy Nachos.....Nacho's ni memang penangan maut..mengoyel tidak berhenti-henti..memang bahaya snack macam boleh montel dibuatnya..Resipi Nacho dalam entri setrusnya. Resipi Sloopy Joe saya buat simple aje bersama side salad dan tomato.

Sekali lagi SELAMAT TAHUN BARU SEMUA semoga tahu ini membawa keberkatan, kerahmatan, tingkatkan azam, tinggikan ketakwaan semoga menjadi muslimah yang beriman - Amin.
