Welcome to Dane Dane's Kitchen! I'm Dana, known affectionately by some as Dane Dane. After living numerous places around the world, I have experienced all kinds of cuisine and often integrate it into my family's daily meals. I generally don't use many recipes but cook from sight, feel, taste and texture. It's always frustrating when people ask for a recipe and I can't really give them the exacts. So, I've tried to work some of our favorites into something to share. If you see something that interests you, join in, put your own spin on it, have fun and enjoy food!

Cream Cheese Peppadews



This is a fun party food I made for New Years Eve. I already had the ingredients on hand and thought it would make a sweet and savory start to the evening. They were a "bomb," you know how kids say it these days! That means they were great and got a lot of talk.

1 jar of hot sweet peppadew peppers (drained)
1 tub of cream cheese
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/4 cup minced onion
whole macadamia nuts

After the peppers are drained, put them on a paper towel to remove any excess liquid. Add garlic and onions to the cream cheese and mix it together well. Spoon the cream cheese into a pastry bag with a large open tip that will fit into the opening of the peppers. Squeeze the cream cheese into the peppers 3/4 of the way full. Find a nut just the right size and use it to seal off the pepper. Quick and different!
