Smoked Tuna Salad

What you will need: Large pot, lighter, 4 squares of unscented toilet paper, can of tuna in olive oil, pitcher of water or fire extinguisher.

Open can of tuna and do not drain. Press toilet paper squares into oil and put into the pot.

Take the pot, the water, and your lighter and go outside as this will smoke a little bit.

Light corner of the toilet paper and let it burn.

Let burn for 10-15 minutes. Sizzling and popping sounds are normal.

Fire will burn out on it's own when all the oil is burned off and it will stop smoking.

You can safely take it inside now. 

Using tongs, carefully remove tuna can from pot, and remove toilet paper from the tuna.

Let cool completely, and prepare as you wish.

I used mayo, onion, lemon juice, and a little bit of garlic.

How to clean plastic containers

Let's face it. We've been there. Taco sauce, tomato soup, Spaghettios.... they wreak havoc on your plastic containers! Here is an easy how-to to clean your containers out.

4. Allow to rest until the water is luke-warm

Sopapilla Cheesecake

So easy and SOOOOO good!

2 cans buttered crescent roll dough
2 packs of cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup butter, melted
Cinnamon and sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix together softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla. Unroll 1 can of crescent roll dough and spread into bottom of greased 13x9 cake pan. Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over dough. Unroll other can of crescent roll dough and lay on top. Brush top with melted butter and sprinkle cinnamon and sugar all over. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Let cool completely before serving and refrigerate any leftovers.

Note: Filling will be runny if you attempt to serve it when it's still warm. Can be baked in an 8x8 pan, simply cut recipe in half.

Pfannkuchen

This is like dessert for breakfast...so good! Should be cooked in an oven safe skillet. If you don't have one, it can be baked in a pie plate, just make sure everything is non-stick. An iron skillet would work best. This recipe is definitely enough for 2 servings.

Peel, core, and slice 2 apples. I prefer granny smith apples for this recipe. Caramelize apples with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and about 1/2 cup brown sugar.

Mix 3 eggs, 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 cup milk, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla, and a pinch of salt.

When apples have fully caramelized, add batter. Let simmer for about 5 minutes or until edges start to puff.

If, like me, you do not have an oven safe skillet, put mixture in an 8-9 inch pie pan. Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes. Don't forget your non-stick spray, or it will stick. If using an iron skillet, simply put it in the oven. When it's finished baking, flip out onto plate, and enjoy.
