My handy-dandy reference list of interesting recipies. Someone else created them, I just copied them here. I haven't tried all of them...yet. :) The "Punch Rule Of Thumb": 1 quart (2 pints) of sherbert or ice cream per liter of soda Stuff that's worked well: Toxic Waste Punch  - Ingredients
- ½ gallon of rainbow (mixed flavors) sherbet (= 2 quarts or = 4 pints)
- 2 2-liter bottles of 7-Up or Ginger Ale
- 1 envelope green Kool-Aid
- Procedure
- Put the sherbet in a 2-3 gallon bowl. Sprinkle the Kool-Aid across the top.
- Slowly pour the soda around the sides of the sherbet. The soda will lift the Kool-Aid leaving delightful color streaks and sour flavors.
Eyeball Tacos - Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 (1.25 ounce) package Taco Seasoning Mix
- 12 Taco Shells
- 1 (16 ounce) jar Thick 'N Chunky Salsa
- 1 (16 ounce) container Sour Cream
- 24 sliced pitted ripe olives
- Procedure
- Mix meat and seasoning mix. Shape into 36 (1-inch) balls; place in 15x10x1-inch baking pan.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes or until cooked through.
- Fill each taco shell with 1 meatball; drizzle with salsa.
- Top with 2 meatballs dipped in sour cream. Garnish with olives to make "eyeballs."
- My Notes
- Part of a seasoning packet works well if a whole one is too strong.
- In a time crunch, don't make meatballs, just fry the ground beef, and use a spoon to scoop two blobs of sour cream onto the taco.
- Pre-prepped green olives with pimentos work as well as the black ripe ones - whole olives may be too strong, so try slices.
- 5 kids can go through a dozen tacos before you blink. :)
Worms on Buns - Ingredients
- Procedure
- Cut the hot dogs into thin slices - lengthwise - and score the edges (about three cuts per slice).
- Boil or microwave until the slices curl like wiggly worms.
- Serve three or four worms to a bun.
Stuff I either haven't tried yet or haven't made up my mind on yet: Bug Juice - Ingredients
- 1 big can green juice (example: Hi-C's "Tangergreen" that doesn't say "non-staining")
- Sprite
- Green Sherbert
- Procedure
- Combine green juice and sprite.
- Float sherbert in middle
- Serve
Putrid Punch - Ingredients
- 1 13-oz. package lemon-lime Kool-Aid
- 1 cup sugar
- 8 cups water
- 1 can frozen orange juice concentrate
- 4 cups ginger ale
- Worm cubes (ice cubes with gummy worms frozen inside)
- 3 scoops orange sherbert
- Procedure
- Freeze "gummy worms" in ice cubes (several hours ahead)
- Empty the Kool-Aid package into a punch bowl.
- Add the sugar, then the water and stir until dissolved.
- Stir in the orange juice.
- Just before serving, add the ginger ale and worm cubes and float the scoops of sherbert on top.
- Before long, the punch will be green and "infested with worms".
Swamp Water Punch - Ingredients
- 1 can frozen OJ concentrate - no pulp
- 1 2-liter bottle lemon/lime soda
- 1 half-gallon package of lime sherbert (= 2 quarts or = 4 pints)
- Procedure
- Mix all ingredients in a bowl about an hour before serving time. Add dry ice when serving if desired. This will become a brownish green color from the combination of ingredients, but will have a pleasant orange flavor if you can get past the looks.
- My Notes
- Normal OJ is not a substitute for frozen canned no-pulp OJ
Monster Toes - Ingredients
- Cocktail wieners
- 6-inch tortillas
- Ketchup or mustard
- Toothpicks
- Procedure
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut a wedge into the end of each cocktail wiener to make a toenail.
- Cut the tortillas into strips about 4 inches long and 3/4 inch wide. Discard the ends.
- Soften the strips in the microwave between damp paper towels for 10 to 30 seconds.
- Roll each wiener in a tortilla strip and secure with a toothpick.
- Bake for 7 to 8 minutes. Remove them from the oven, then fill the toenail with ketchup or mustard.
- Remove the toothpicks before serving.
