Recipe Of The Day: Jalapeno Cheddar Muffins


Something that no meal is complete without is a good muffin or biscuit.  September is National Biscuit Month and we figured lets put a little spice into what we love so much and ses how it plays out. Turns out these biscuits are damn good and have people emailing us all the time for he recipe after we make them for one our backyard BBQs.

As you should know The Supreme Plate are fans of all things spicy and these lovely biscuits are not your moms bland Bisquick biscuits from your younger days.
I think its time for us to start working on The Supreme Plate Cookbook. what ya'll think?

Either way enjoy this recipe with any dish that needs a good muffin to soak up some juice as well as add a needed kick of heat.
Enjoy!

The Spicy Oyster Shooter

The end of Summer is steadily approaching and with that we will need to start switching up our drink and dinner menus to fit the season accordingly. With it being the 1st day of September that means that Oyster Season has officially begun. September is home to some great food holidays and today is actually National Wine Seasons 1st day as well as National Cherry Popover Day.

With the amount of days we have to spend laying out by the pool dwindling it is time to introduce to you, The Spicy Oyster Shooter. Playing out like a Bloody Mary mixed with the most delicate sushi, this drink is one that can’t be passed up on. I am sure many people will get nervous when they hear it has an actual oyster in it, but with the spicy cayenne pepper, pepper vodka and celery salt, this thing will taste better than drink you have consumed after biting into the freshest of hand made sushi rolls.

Enjoy this often as Oysters are good for you (and for your libido according to who you ask.)

National Trail Mix Day - The Best Trail Mix You Have Ever Had, We Promise.

Everyone could use a bit of healthier eating in their lives. Well unfortunately for the most of us, the healthier food is usually the least attractive thing to eat. This recipe for Homemade Trail Mix includes deliciously healthy ingredients such as walnuts, pecans, raisins, apricots, cherries and more and is really simple to make.


With it being able to sit at room temperature without spoiling for a week or two you can make this in batches and have it to snack on throughout your day to help avoid eating multiple handfuls of whatever junk-food your currently consuming.

Dig In & Enjoy.

Homemade Toasted Coconut Marshmallows, Made Easy


Growing up everyone surely remembers sipping on some hot chocolate loaded with mini marshmallows, snacking on a Rice Crispy treat or enjoying a classic S'more. Marshmallows to kids are like little bits of puffed up joy, designed specifically for them to get hyped up on and have hours of fun.
But as we grow older and common sense kicks in, it is funny to find that as adults, not everyone is as big of a fan of those gooey Marshmallows as they used to be.
Partly because now we see them as the flavorless bags of fluff they are and well they also really aren't all that healthy.
So for the most part, Marshmallows have become an afterthought to what we could be enjoying for dessert. Well the great thing about us is that we never leave anything alone for long. After having some friends over and finding out their kids had never eaten S'mores, I decided it was time to whip up some classic Homemade Marshmallows.
Dipping into our recipe stash and coming up with this adaptation of something we learned from a close friend in Culinary School we think these will be a surefire hit for anyone you pass them off too and of course as with everything else we show you how to make, no one will believe you made them at home.
With a few simple ingredients and a bit of afore thought as to what kind of flavors your hoping to achieve, Homemade Marshmallows can be knocked it easily and quickly and just in time for todays National Food Holiday, Toasted Marshmallow Day.
Enjoy!
