Possibly the Worst Meal Ever 2 and Chocolate Peanut Butter Fondue

I found this great recipe for cheese fondue without a fondue pot! Everything was going great, and the cheese was an awesome consistency. I had bread, veggies, chips, pretzels and meat to dip.

As soon as I poured the cheese into individual ramekins, the oil and cheese sperated and made a giant inedible lump.

Trent and I attempted to pull pieces off to put on the bread and other things, but it was just not happening. The kids didn't even notice the cheese, and just assumed we were having finger foods for dinner and they loved it!



Now I know, do not make cheese fondue without a fondue pot.

My saving grace was the dessert fondue I made to go with it...and it did just fine without the fondue pot!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Fondue
from Dinner's Ready

1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup peanut butter

Combine everything in a pot and cook on low heat, stirring until it is smooth. Then, it is ready to serve, or move to a fondue pot to keep it warm. It tastes great served with strawberries, bananas, pretzels and marshmallows.

Possibly the Worst Meal Ever

If you pay any attention to my monthly menu, sometimes you will notice that recipes appear one month, but no posts ever show up... and they kind of disappear.  Some times I just decide I don't want to make it for one reason or another, sometimes it was just something my family wasn't a fan of, and the rest is because the recipe was no good for anyone! Case and point:

I love trying new recipes, even recipes that seem weird. Sometimes it is genius, and other times it is a disaster.
In my search for more summer friendly meals, I found a recipe for Cool Cucumber Soup and thought it sounded fun and yummy!

Unfortunately, it was AWFUL. The kids were pretty excited to try is out, but after the first bite they immediately told me how horrible it tasted. My husband said it tasted like I went out and picked some grass in then blended it with some cream. I tried really hard to like it, but could only handle a few bites.

Anyway, Stay far away from this recipe! The sadest part was I took a really great picture of it!



(Oh, and the potato wedges were awesome, recipe to follow)
