Shrimp Scampi Video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MzEMzvWVg0

Shrimp Scampi and Cheesey Garlic Biscuits
Shrimp Scampi Recipe:
14 raw,peeled and deveigned shrimp
1 tablespoon and a half minced garlic
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons butter



Cheesey Garlic Biscuits:
2 cups Bisquick baking mix
2/3 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Baking Mixes!

I just had a fun conversation with Brittany Hartman, who I haven't really had the chance to talk to, but so far she seems really nice and I like her personality. :)
We were talking about what we want to do when we get older and I told her how I want to own my own business. Also, I want my own Food Network show, then expand and have my own baking mix line and cook wear line. Then I had a ohmygod moment: I could create my own baking mix line at my house! I will see eventually after I have more free time, if I can make that happen.

IF I do, it will be sold at my etsy.com shop

Bananas on the Brain.

So I have bananas on the brain. I am on day 4 of this ridiculous diet and it says bananas and skim milk is what im allowed to have besides the awful soup I'm suppose to have. Well, thank god i like bananas :)

So this made me think of Bananas Foster! One of my favorite desserts. Its actually pretty to make too because it lights on fire before it is served! So one episode I'm definitely making Bananas Foster. :)

Video feedback

Hey everyone,
I have had many people walk up to me at school today telling me they loved the video! That is so exciting! I wanted to tell everyone thank you for viewing my video. I also was given more ideas for recipes at school today so I will deffinitely be coming up with recipes soon. I have to experiment before the video of course! At this moment in time i have 51 views! Which is crazy because I was only expecting at the most 10 or 15 in the first day! (sorry for all the exclamation points i am just excited haha)

So far the list of suggestions are:
Something with Oreos
Shrimp Scampi
Coffee Cake
Spaghetti
Lasagna
Creme Brulee
Cheesecake
Steak
Macaroni and Cheese Pizza
Cake
Cheesy Fries
Corndogs
Potato Chips
and Cheese Straws


any more suggestions will be taken into consideration!

My next video i'm pretty sure is going to be Shrimp Scampi :) stay tuned!

It is the premiere of my first cooking video titled TheGirlCanCook Wicked Good Key Lime Pies
The Recipe is as follows:

1 Yellow Cake Mix
1 8 oz Cream Cheese
1 Egg
1 Teaspoon Vanilla 
2 Key Limes, zest & juice
1 Cup Powdered Sugar, plus 1/4 cup for dusting on top

Preheat oven @ 350
In a bowl, pour in the cake mix and melted butter mix until a crumb like consistency. Pour mixture into prepared(sprayed with Pam)  8 x 8 baking dish and set to theside.

In a large mixing bowl, put in the cream cheese, egg,vanilla,lime zest and juice, and 1 cup powdered sugar. Mix until smooth or a tiny bit clumpy. (mine is clumpy in the video)

Pour the mixture onto the cake mix crumb mixture, and bake for 40 Minutes. *Ovens vary so additional cook time might be needed. They need to be golden brown and solid throughout.
After they are cooled, sprinkle the left over 1/4 cup powdered sugar on top using a sieve. Add lime zest on top or a lime slice for decoration.

Hey Guys!

Hey Guys,
   This is Hunter, from YouTube.com/TheGirlCanCook. I am currently learning how to use my blog. I am going to film my first cooking show called:  Wicked Good Key Lime Pie Bars... unless I can't write that many letters in the title. If that is the case, I will post the title in the next entry along with a link to the video. I wanted to also welcome you to the blog. The blog is going to be about my YouTube videos, and also about my cooking creations or failures. When I post a video here, I will include the recipe incase you do not wanna pause every section of the video, which is some what annoying. But, please do not let that discourage you from watching! These videos are going to be a hobby of mine on the weekend. I will not post every day. I wish I could, but I am a junior in high school, therefore I have homework and a part time job and I am going to the gym after work and other things to do during the week. I will try to post as often as I can though! :)

Thats all for now,
Remember: "Cooking is a form of expression, go express yourself!"
