life after belleview
Life after Belleview? I couldn't imagine how its going to turn out, but I can picture how I would like it to be. As long as I raise my grades, I plan on going to college in California, studying law and becoming a successful lawyer. Of course I'll have to work odd jobs to put myself through college, but it'll be worth it. Getting out of Belleview is really my main goal.

ginger garlic strir fry

as you will notice most of my recipes have garlic in them. I like garlic and so does my family. I thought that the stir fry would be a light twist to my recipes.
iNGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 teaspoons chopped fresh ginger root, divided
1/4 cup vegetable oil, divided
1 small head broccoli, cut into florets
1/2 cup snow peas
3/4 cup julienned carrots
1/2 cup halved green beans
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 1/2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 tablespoon salt
DIRECTIONS
1 In a large bowl, blend cornstarch, garlic, 1 teaspoon ginger, and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil until cornstarch is dissolved. Mix in broccoli, snow peas, carrots, and green beans, tossing to lightly coat.
2 Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Cook vegetables in oil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Stir in soy sauce and water. Mix in onion, salt, and remaining 1 teaspoon ginger. Cook until vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Garlic Prime rib

this recipe was founded by a friend. She said it was really good so i decide to try it. It turns out it wasnt so bad after all. The garlic brings out all the juices.
INGREDIENTS
1 (10 pound) prime rib roast
10 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
2 teaspoons dried thyme
DIRECTIONS
1 Place the roast in a roasting pan with the fatty side up. In a small bowl, mix together the garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper and thyme. Spread the mixture over the fatty layer of the roast, and let the roast sit out until it is at room temperature, no longer than 1 hour.
2 Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
3 Bake the roast for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), and continue roasting for an additional 60 to 75 minutes. The internal temperature of the roast should be at 145 degrees F (53 degrees C) for medium rare.
4 Allow the roast to rest for 10 or 15 minutes before carving so the meat can retain its juices.
