Homemade Spinach Noodles & Rice Krispy Treats :)

Spinach Noodles

Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 bag spinach
3 cups flour
1 tbs water
2 tsp garlic powder
salt/pepper

Directions:
-In a food processor (or blender or whatever) empty contents of bag of spinach and break down
-(change food processor blade to dough blade/mixing blad) Add flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder
-Add eggs on at a time, add water
-If mixture is solid and dough like, remove, knead on a lightly floured surface
-If mixture is slightly wet, remove and add flour, then knead of a lightly floured surface
-Roll thin (I roll mine to an 1/8 of an inch, basically as thin as you can get it and still peel it off your surface)
-Cut into whatever shape you desire (I use squares, because it's easy - but you can do long noodles!)
-Add noodles to salted, rapidly boiling water.
-Let cook until floating at top or done to liking.

Enjoy!

Rice Krispy Treats
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1 bag marshmallows (10.5 ounces)
1 box  rice krispies cereal (or cripsy rice or whatever generic)

Directions:
-Melt butter in large bowl in microwave or in sauce pan over low heat on the stove.
-Add marshmallows, coat in melted butter and stir til melted (if you're using the stove, stir CONSTANTLY, or they will burn!!)
-If using large bowl from microwave, dump cereal in bowl and coat with marshmallow; if using sauce pan, move marshmallow INTO a large bowl and then do as said above.
-Press into 9x13 pan and cover, let cool.
-Cut. Eat.

There are many variations on these - you can add melted chocolate or melted peanut butter, I just prefer plain old rice krispy treats!  Enjoy!
