Our New Name & Location

For the purpose of marketing and easy name recognition, we have changed our name and moved to our new home. Chefs-R-Us

We tried so many names, but they all seemed to have already been taken and registered. We jokingly came up with the name Chefs-R-Us knowing that it was probably taken since Cooks-R-Us and Recipes-R-Us were already registered web sites. WOW! We couldn't believe that someone hadn't taken the name. So we registered both ChefsRUs.com and Chefs-R-Us.com.

We have kept all of our site features and are adding some new features. We already started our "Today's Featured Recipe" page. Everyday, a new recipe is randomly selected as our feature recipe. Maybe your recipe will be featured! We also added our "Food News" page. This page has articles of food in the news, links to a healthly recipe index, retaurant reviews by major cities, and for those living in the U.S., we added a 24 hour U.S. weather map.

Our "Tips-n-Tricks" page is currently in the process of being revamped to allow visitors to review these tid-bits of information by searching for the them by keywords. We have collected nearly 200 bits of information this past year.

The "Featured Chefs" page is down for a short time. We are trying to automate those pages so we can post new recipes from those chefs more quickly.

Speaking of automation. All of our recipes have been entered into a data base to speed up the searching and posting of new recipes at our site. In the past we seemd to always be a month behind in posting the tons of submitted recipes. I can guarrentee we'll be all caught up this month. We have already posted 22 recipes in the past 5 days and still have over 80 yet to post. Watch our site. November will hit over 100 recipes for the month!!!

Season For Pumpkins

First we have Halloween, then Thanksgiving and followed by Christmas. There always seems to be a reason for Pumpkin something or the other. Two of our largest recipe contributors, Bill Anatooskin and Bea Dahlen offer us two of their pumpkin delights below.

If you hate pumpkin pie as much as I do, the third pumpkin recipe is a GREAT alternative to the traditional pumpkin pie that has been pounded down our throughts since childhood. I tasted this culinary treat and MAN! I almost started to like pumpkin pie again. This dessert is also great if you need something to bring to a get-together buffet or potluck.

Double Decker Pumpkin Pie
harrishouse@whro.net
   4oz Cream Cheese (softened)
   1 Tbsp Milk or Half and Half
   1 Tbsp Sugar
   1-1/2 cup Whipped Topping (thawed)
   1 Graham Cracker Crust
   1 cup cold Milk or Half and Half
   2 sm pkg Vanilla Flavored Instant Pudding
   16oz can Pumpkin Pie Filling
   1 tsp ground Cinnamon
   1/2 tsp ground Ginger
   1 tsp ground Cloves
Beat cream cheese, 1 tablespoon of milk, and sugar with wire whisk until smooth. Gently stir in the whipped topping. Spread on bottom of graham cracker crust.Refrigerate 1/2 hour.

Pour 1 cup of the milk into bowl, add pudding mix. Beat with wire whisk for one to two minutes--mixture will be thick. Stir in pumpkin and spices with wire whisk. Mix well.

Spread over cream cheese layer. Refrigerate four hours, or until set.

In a mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat whipping cream until fluffy, add vanilla and continue to beat until cream just starts to thicken.Add sugar and continue beating until thickened.
