You should get a rice cooker. At least that way you could alternate your carbs. If you live near a city with a Chinatown, go to it and find a market where they sell 20 Lb bags. It's extremely cheap and super easy to make.

This. And get some chicken. Chicken and rice is cheap, easy, filling, and has at least some nutritional value.
There's no money for it at the moment. Seriously, we're poor.

For those who care, we *did* go grocery shopping earlier, so when I have dinner it's gonna be some kind of "tuna skillet meal" (think off-brand Hamburger Helper)

Tuna Helper has got to be one of the most horrible post-war inventions ever created.

I made some HH Beef Stroganoff the other night. Hadn't made it in about a year. It was OK. It was better when they had the seperate sour cream packet, though.

Pretty much this. My mother's idea of cooking is Hamburger Helper, which is also a horrible abomination. This is why I learned to cook when I was very young.

That's the kind my parents make. And yes, it was a little better with the separate sour cream packet. But it's still not great.

There are probably a few reasons for that. For starters, you pretty much never hit on me. Also, you're well aware that I won't go for it.

I had Carraba's. It was a birthday, and it was disgusting.
I was driving through Kikewood, NJ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakewood_Township,_New_Jersey) the other night, stopped in a liqueur store, and this Jewish store owner ID'ed me! I'm 27 in October, but I look fucking 40! I didn't get ID'ed since I was 17! So that put me in the mood for a shit-load of pork sausage and sauerkraut tonight, with German beer of course. Take that, stupid wine store kike!
White chocolate peanut butter? WAT?! Where can I get some?
...and I'm thinking over various scenarios of impersonating your husband.

Whole foods, though I've seen the dark chocolate and cinnamon raisin versions (also awesome) both there and at Super Target.

I'm curious about Mexican Coke.
I went out to an Argentinian/Indian fusion place with two friends. It was pretty good, but I prefer straight one way or the other. They did have some really amazing meat though (like these honey and chipotle crusted ribs and a steak done tandoori style). I had a straight-up Indian dish (butter chicken). They also had some pretty interesting drinks. I got a coconut saffron cream martini (yeah, foo foo...sue me).

Leftover Beef Veg soup, a philly cheese steak. Maybe beef ice cream for desert, with beef shavings. Iced tea chilled with frozen beef cubes.
New Wendy's CommercialI only regret that I could not find the clip on youtube
Girl: "Do you want a bite of my salad? It's really good."
Guy: "No thanks. I'm a meatitarian."
Girl: "What?"
Guy: "A meatitarian. You know, bacon, all beef patties...I have to stay committed. It's a personal thing."

Snazzed up with a few blams of Louisiana Hot Sauce.Lol! We have one thing in common at least. I usually use 3/4 Louisiana hot sauce, 1/4 ranch to dip EVERYTHING in, tacos, sandwiches, ANY meat, baked potatoes....

The stuff is just AWESOME...
Anyways, I am cooking a whole chicken right now.
I stabbed under the skin and rubbed lots of butter, cream cheese, salt, garlic powder and paprika.
I've rubbed the stuff under the skin before, but I've never actually stabbed the chicken multiple times under the skin though.. I'm hoping it will result in a nice buttery cooked chicken like those chicken wings you get at the chinese buffet. I can't for the life of me figure out how they get the actual chicken tasting so buttery...
Hope this works. If it doesn't, ah well, it was just $3
Glass pan, lots of butter and herbs of choice, maybe a little chicken broth or bullion whisked in 1/4 cup of water, makes it chickeney. Chicken never tastes like chicken unless you make it taste like chicken. Bake it like a cake @325 for about an hour or until its about to begin falling apart, turning often half submerged in the butter-herb-broth slop.
Then remove from the slop, and bake a little while longer on a baking rack to dry it out, uncovered. Hit the broil for 5 min if you want little black speckles sizzled on it. Butter = fire, so be ready to pull it out if it starts flaming.
Mix some butter herb slop into mashed potatoes. Save some for a-jus over the chicken. Biscuits and a green vegetable so you don't die of butter poisoning. Baby carrots in the pan with the chicken turn out good, baked mushy in the butter.
I always use a few carrots in there, even if nobody eats 'em. Because they're orange, and I am visually stimulated by warm colors.

I was home for work today, so I made myself some pasta for lunch. I went out to a bar before our company's softball game tonight and had a "spicy chicken wrap". I was actually surprised how good it was. It was buffalo chicken and it was fried perfectly. Mmmmmmmmmmmm. I accompanied it with a Guinness and a 312 (Goose Island...Chicago brewery).
I make a jumbotronic lasagna roughly the size of a bag of concrete about once a year. People admire it.
My bro-in-law had a kid a few years ago, around the holidays, and I killed two birds with one stone 'cause he gets wicked happy when I make it, so it was a xmas gift and new baby gift. I'm weird like that, but he digs it more than anything else I could give him.
So, I made him this big honkin lasagna in an 18x24x5 pan, fuckin thing weighed about 30 lbs. Throwaway pan for catering, with the heavy gauge wire supporting the bottom and ending in handles, like a laundry basket.
I deliver the thing hot out of the oven, with garlic bread (of course) and he's HolyFuckin! all over the house, all kinds of happy. Eats a big slice, we all had some. Damn good stuff, loaded with ricotta-cheddar-mozz custom blend ala Brasky, and my patented meat sauce which is also noted for excellence, and won the Italian Datsagood Award nine years in a row.
Theres still a cubic yard left, 2/3 pan at least. He's gonna freeze a few pieces, have some tomorrow, he's got long term plans for this lasagna. Joy and abundance is prevalent on this fine day.
Next day he goes to work, and his idiot-bitch has her family over the house, and feeds 'em the whole fucking thing. Gone.
He comes home from work, with visions of heaping portions of my delicious gift clouding his mind, he'd dreamed of this moment since dawn and all through the day of labor and toil. Gone? GONE!!? YOU. FUCKING. BITCH!!! HE DIDN'T MAKE THAT FUCKING THING TO FEED YOUR SCUMBAG WELFARE PILLHEAD ASSHOLE FAMILY!!!!!
The battle was epic, the romance and cheer of the holiday fractured, things were destroyed shattered and stomped. Children ran in fear of the raging behemoth bellowing in blind starving fitful delirium.
I still hear about it every christmas, like the day the earth stood still, or Pearl Harbor. Remember that Lasagna you made...? Yeah, whistfully. I've never made him another, and when he hears of me making a lasagna, a dark cloud crosses over his features and you can see the scene replaying behind his eyes, that bitch...
I had some good clips from Falling Down on youtube, but the Nazis at Viacom had them taken down...
Sucks.
I like to browse those occasionally.
When will these people ever realize, since its not the whole movie in quality, its not the same fucking thing. Its an homage. It means more sales, not less. People will go buy movies if they see clips they like, its free advertising they would normally pay buku bucks for.
Yes, they are extremely bomb. And they can last you a good two meals or three light ones if you get hooked up.Carne Asada Fries.

I don't recall getting my feelings hurt. I think I walked over to the stove, twisted my boxers so my dong wasn't peeking out of the fly, and clicked the burner off after a quick stir.
The spice turned out great. From straight Zats, added Luziana Hawt Sauce, and crushed red pepper from a stolen red pepper shaker, courtesy of the local pizza shack.

Rice noodles, soaked in hot water during the prep time.
Chicken breast, short marinade time in lime juice, garlic and sesame or peanut oil.
(You can also use tofu, pork, shrimp, or even plain old edamame & veggies for stir frying)
Chopped green onions, cilantro and bean sprouts.
Scrambled egg, cooked in thin sheet, rolled and sliced into thin strips
Peanuts
Sauce: *Tamarind paste, Fish sauce, Sugar, Ginger, Red chili paste, Peanut oil, Crushed garlic, Rice wine vinegar
Stir fry chicken, shrimp, tofu and/or veggies in oil. When almost done, add the drained rice noodles and stir.
Pour on sauce, and cook, uncovered, until the noodles have absorbed liquid.
Add bean sprouts and green onions for last minute of cooking.
Serve topped with chopped cilantro and peanuts.
*Having an asian market in town helps, for getting a couple of the ingredients. The making is pretty easy, if you have the stuff. You can buy kits at the grocery store, and just add the fresh veg & protein. The sauce is pretty decent, though you might want to add a touch of extra chili oil or even red pepper flakes to it, just to add a touch more flavor.

You can buy kits at the grocery store, and just add the fresh veg & protein. The sauce is pretty decent, though you might want to add a touch of extra chili oil or even red pepper flakes to it, just to add a touch more flavor.
Tonight:
Chicken Pad Thai and Garlic Broccoli.
Glass (or 3) of chardonnay, too.
That sounds interesting. How do you make that?
Rice noodles, soaked in hot water during the prep time. drink some wine
Chicken breast, short marinade time in lime juice, garlic and sesame or peanut oil.drink some wine
(You can also use tofu, pork, shrimp, or even plain old edamame & veggies for stir frying)
Chopped green onions, cilantro and bean sprouts. phew..better have a sip
Scrambled egg, cooked in thin sheet, rolled and sliced into thin strips . drinking more wine
Peanuts
Sauce: *Tamarind paste, Fish sauce, Sugar, Ginger, Red chili paste, Peanut oil, Crushed garlic, Rice wine vinegar
Stir fry chicken, shrimp, tofu and/or veggies in oil. When almost done, add the drained rice noodles and stir. open another bottle
Pour on sauce, and cook, uncovered, until the noodles have absorbed liquid. Admiral stockdale moment...what was i doing?
Add bean sprouts and green onions for last minute of cooking. put fire out with whats left in wine bottle

Smartass. Whole thing took less than an hour, from start to pasta bowls. And only one and a half glasses of wine, btw.
First I took a large metallic bowl, cracked six medium-sized eggs into it, yolks and all, and whipped them with a plastic fork. No salt / other additives (the Japs would use soy sauce).
Then I poured half a "family sized" bag of spicy corn chips over the eggs, and ate them with my hands. This involved tipping the bowl on the side so I could hand-dip each chip in the raw egg mixture real good.
Then I drank the remaining mixture of raw egg and artificial flavoring from the corn chips.

Sometimes a sandwich is too much preparation for me. Plus, I have sandwiches pretty much every day for lunch and like to mix things up a bit.
Having a weird craving.
Feel like making deviled eggs.
That's a weird thing to do at 10:30 at night.
Not at all. If you woke up at 3:30 in the morning with the compulsion to make deviled eggs, that might be a touch quirky, but still not weird.
Deviled eggs are a food of the gods.

I don't really have a problem with that normally. They sell hard boiled eggs at Publix. Those probably peel really easy.
I woke up a little while ago craving french toast...so that is what I'm eating. For breakfast.

Yum! I wish I'd thought of that before having scrambled eggs and an english muffin with butter and garlic cream cheese.
Tomorrow, french toast and fruit. I'll bake a couple peaches tonight. Will be great.
A couple of boiled egg peeling tricks from my chef dad: When boiling the eggs, throw a tablespoon of salt into the water. As soon as the eggs are finished boiling, stick them into a bowl of cold water and then add a tray or two of ice cubes.

Honestly I think its some horrible stuff. Meh.Boston Market. Meat loaf, macaroni n' cheese, corn, mashapatoes n' gravy.
Boston Market is definitely underrated in my opinion. It may be awful for you, but it tastes so good that I can ignore that issue :)

I'm stumped. No idea what to fix for dinner tonight.
Am hoping inspiration strikes in next couple hours, so I can run by the store before all the soccer moms are done with Saturday morning games. Not much worse shopping to be found than in a store packed with a bunch of stressed out, sleep deprived moms with their 2-4 kids clamoring for more of the cookies, candy and juice sugar load they ingested in car on the way between field and supermarket.
Why can't people walk like they drive? Stay to the right, pass on the left, and don't fucking ram in to things. :shock:

I've found that people in larger cities that walk more than they drive are better at it, but they still suck.

This is definitely true, but tourists tend to ruin my walking bliss. I don't really blame them, though. If you don't stop to check out the scenery there's no point in being a tourist.

It says Delmonico, but I think the guy screwed up and put the thick end of a tenderloin in the package. It doesn't look quite like a typical Delmonico, and the grain of the meat is separated, kinda like when you comb wet hair. Its about the size of a CD, but stretched out oblong, and well over an inch thick. Looking at the store, it was like steak, steak, steak, DAMN!
Its gonna rock on the grill.

It used to be that I wouldn't eat it unless it was completely done. No pink at all. But these days, I'd prefer a hint of pink in there. Because the ones my mother's loving husband makes are like shoe leather. And he puts too much salt on EVERYTHING that he cooks, so pleh. Every time I eat something one of them cooks I swell up a little bit due to the sodium intake. :lol:

Bumping this thread because I made something good (for a college student at least) tonight:
A little sesame oil in a saucepan, then put in some peanut butter, let it melt a bit, added some mixed veggies and ham. Added the pasta which I had been cooking concurrently, balsamic vinegar, let the acetic acid (largely) boil off, then ate.

Yep. I leave the onions in big pieces though, because they won't eat those. They like the flavor the onion adds, but find the texture creepy.
It's only been recently I've been able to handle the smooth uniform texture of as-is tofu. My oldest son likes it, but the younger two find it creepy, which I completely understand.
The trick to the tofu is getting as much water out as possible. I leave a couple heavy plates on top of it until it's about 1/2 height, then slice/chop it.
It can be fried for a crispy outside, or baked slow in a marinade, which lets the flavors cook in while more of the water bakes out.

Not a big fan, but I don't bag on peoples food prefs. I have my own weirds.
Theres a place about 500 yards down the road that does habachi table grilling, all Jap owned, so they're probably open. Their food is fan-fuckin-tastic. I could live in there. They gots the sushis in every variation imaginable. Probly except for the death-fish, but it wouldn't surprise me if they had that, too. This little corner of the world has some very upscale developments hidden in the woods, McMansions the size of cruise ships. So its not unusual to see some really pricey, exotic shit featured in the menus.

There's a restaurant in Dallas that is entirely fondue. You can get a cheese fondue appetizer with vegetables, then a main course of various meats which you cook yourself with batter and oil, and then dessert is strawberries and bananas etc. in chocolate fondue. Not very good for you, and you smell like fondue for the remainder of the evening, but very tasty. ;-)

Middle eastern dish. Spicy, tomatoes, onions and peppers - gets eggs dropped on top to poach, just before serving.
With flatbread straight out of the oven, is serious comfort food. Is rainy today, so is actually much better day for it.

Hangovers, flu, I even know someone who got pregnant (and knew she was going to get an abortion) who used it to cure morning sickness.

She didn't eat the bacon or the cheese.
I didn't ask if she's a oco-larvo (wat-thefuckever) vegan, I asked if she's veggie.
She could be veggie and eat eggs and butter. Some are loose like that, and just observe the basics and avoid meat. Maybe its soy-eggs or some freaky shit she didn't mention.
She cooks meat often, and I've seen her remark about enjoying it, but she also does a lot of veggies and I've seen her mention tofu more than once. My guess, after reading her comments for many chapters, is she is a quasi-veggie. I think she makes an effort to eat healthy in a vegetarian manner, with a casual allowance of meat just because she likes it, and isn't morally opposed to meat products. I think you could consider yourself "mostly veggie" if you want. I'm curious how she would classify herself.

I didn't ask if she's a oco-larvo (wat-thefuckever) vegan, I asked if she's veggie.
Is an octo-lavo vegan a vegan that eats milk and eggs?
No, you're thinking of ovo-lacto. Vegetarians of the octo-larvo variety will only eat calamari, bugs and veggies.

Ginger scallion meatballs and a stir fried veggie & noodle thing.
I'm going to skip the meatballs and toss some spinach into my noodles before serving. Not recovered from the general "ick" feeling from my lunch from burger king. Everyone else is fine, so I'm going to have to assume my general distaste for fast food is becoming more pronounced. Next time people want junkfood, I'm lobbying for Jason's Deli.

I know. :oops: Every six weeks or so, my kids work together to charm me into swing through the drive thru there or Steak & Shake. McDonalds & Chick-fil-a used to be options, as were other burger joints, but they've been dropping off the list. After today, I think we're down to just Steak & Shake.
Black pepper and honey steak? Mmmm. Recipe plz. :D
Black pepper and honey steak? Mmmm. Recipe plz. :D
Equal parts dry red wine and honey, mixed with cracked peppercorn, a sprinkle of sea salt, and lots of minced garlic.
Steak is going to rest in that at room temp while I prep potatoes, garlic & parsnips for mashing, bake cornbread and snap & steam green beans.
Then, will pat steak dry and brush with olive oil for searing.
I'm going semi-frugal, and using a top sirloin, rather than porterhouse. I love my kids, just not $18.99/lb worth
Q: Should I go corny all-american and throw together an apple pie? I have all the ingredients, and enough time.
(Plus, it'd give me an excuse to skip my run this afternoon.)

Oh, btw - are you going to grill, pan fry/sear/whatev/ or broil this? I figure you're not doing outdoor grilling since it's apparently kind of chilly in your area. But most people have some form of indoor grill now a days.
I think imma have to try this one soon. It sounds quite tasty, and pretty simple. I do love cooking big, fancy meals but I just find myself short on time, and since there's only one of me it makes me depressed. :lol:
I don't know how you do it, Joy. You're like superwoman. :shock:

Tonight shall be teriyaki angus sirloin steaks, fire grilled. Debating if I should do "tinfoil potatoes" or just regular baked. For those not in-the-know, 'tinfoil potatoes' are sliced with onion, butter, salt n pepper, wrapped in tinfoil, and baked over a fire (on the grill). Also doing white corn on the cob.
Its summer cookin' above the arctic circle. I have to dig my way out to the grill.
---
The steaks came from a butcher in a farmers market. Aged, marinaded, and vac-sealed in heavy plastic. I also got two pounds of the best smoked kielbasi you'll ever taste, three stuffed cornish game hens, hand made chocolate dipped pretzels, and a bottle of Da Bomb one-million scoveille hotstuff.

I made two chicago style hotdogs (or as close as I could get) and they were delish. Didnt have relish, had to substitute ketchup for tomato and jalapenos for the other kind of peppers but I had onions and mustard. Also 2% milk, my favorite.

That's how my grandmother taught me to cook it.
Specifics: Bring water to a boil with a tablespoon each of salt & sugar. Drop in fresh corn. As soon as it comes back to a boil, cover & remove from heat. Don't touch the pan again until everything comes off the grill and it's time to serve.
I love eating them and since I live so close to chicago they are easy to come by.

All the CIIs in our pharmacy are locked up. We still have hydros and the benzodiazepines though.
My dad brought back a pretty full bottle of generic Oxycontin to the pharmacy once. Bothered his stomach. I bet that clerk had a fun time.

We'd have flushed them, probably, just for ease of disposal. We know it's not supposed to be done, but...well, shit, it's not worth the paperwork.

Yessir.
Whole boneless chicken breasts.
Bisquick.
Eggs.
Corn starch.
Peanut oil.
Sesame oil.
Garlic powder.
Accent.
Salt.
Mix some Bisquick, 1 to 1 with water. Say, two cups each. Throw an egg in. Add some salt, MSG (Accent, whatever) and a good amount of garlic powder. Stir that shit up. It should be kinda thick.
Get your chicken, make sure to flatten it all out, and press it down a bit on something. Cover it with corn starch.
Heat up a wok or frying pan with peanut oil. Make sure it's pretty hot. Add some sesame oil for flavor. (Not absolutely necessary but it tastes good.)
Dip your corn starched chicken into the batter, get it really thick and gooey. Then drop it into your oil. Four minutes per side.
Take out and sit on paper towel for a minute or two. Then get a knife and press straight down, slicing it into one inch wide slices. The breading will stay on with no problem because the corn starch makes it stick. The corn starch also creates that semi gooey layer between the breading and meat, that almond chicken is known for.
Grind up some almonds into powder and sprinkle, if you like it.
Viola.
Bean soup.Add a ham bone in kettle with that. Bake some homemade bread too. Nothing like the smell of homemade bread on a cold day.

Turkey Tacos and Black Bean/Mango Salad.
The turkey was amazing. Made it the grown up way, no kid-friendly kits. I skipped the standard chili powder & ground spices method, and made a "paste" of cilantro, jalapeno, chipolte, onion, garlic, etc. cooked it down in olive oil, then simmered with a little bit of broth before adding to browned meat.

It didn't end up doing a thing. I'm probably going to die because yesterday I took like 7 Excedrin, 4 Advil, and the Vicodin. That's all I can remember. All I know is that at 3:30 after taking the Vicodin sometime between 11-12, I woke up again with screaming head and neck pain. I just can't get it to go away. And of course I work in a mall, so all I hear day in and day out is people yelling, whistling, and screaming children. I've started to develop ways to cut off my own head. I managed to get a few hours sleep in the past few days, thanks to ice packs and other things that seem to help the pain for a little while. I'm sitting here with one of those ThermaCare things on my neck and shoulders, and it seems to be doing more than the Vicodin I literally had for dinner last night.
For dinner tonight I am attempting to eat pierogi. We'll see. My stomach isn't feeling so great since I've eaten nothing but pills for days.

Well of course it's not. I feel the best I have felt since last Saturday, so I might actually manage to consume solid food this evening! :-D

Good news. A girl can only survive on popcorn & excedrin for so long.
I'm not sure how long that is, but I don't think you should test the limits.
I do this often, with different sauces. Here's the one I made tonight:
Slice Tofu. Press between cloth or paper towels to remove as much water as possible.
In saucepan, mix 2-3 tablespoons of miso paste with:
1/2 Rice or White Wine
1/3-1/2 Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon Ginger, freshly grated
2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
2 tablespoons Rice Wine Vinegar
Red Pepper Flakes, to taste.
Stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Add 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
Pour half of sauce into square baking dish.
Place tofu slices in baking dish, pour remaining sauce over slices.
Bake in 375 deg oven, turning every 20-30 minutes, until all of the sauce has either been absorbed, or evaporated.

I'm eating popcorn right now. And I took four Excedrin this afternoon because they had these ballroom dancers right by my kiosk (WTF) this afternoon and they had these bigass Bose speakers, and were BLASTING horrible music. :lol:

I'm with you on the four excedrin, but for entirely different reasons. Hope you feel better soon.
And for supper, I'm eating everything that doesn't run away from me.*
*That's actually a complete lie. Had Gen. Tso's Fish for lunch, w/broccoli and no rice. Dinner was Artichoke/Spinach Hummus with Veggie Tortilla Chips (Trader Joes) and a pear.
I made massaman beef curry.

The kids ate tuna like we did, but I subbed out the salad portion for veggies and pasta with a white sauce.
The try something new isn't quite that stringent.

And, there was a scoop of Triple Brownie ice cream after dinner. That was a "try something new," too.
Tonight was beef veggie soup, crusty bread. Kids are kinda snoffelley, so it was a good head-fixer.

Yeah. I think we're in the part of the year where the common cold is rampant, and it keeps recycling.
I'd like them to stay home from school for a few days, but my older one gets these perfect attendance awards and the younger one is a social butterfly, hates to miss her pals. I told them they didn't have to go, and they turned it down. I'm always perplexed at that.
Dessert will be strawberry shortcake.

Not surprising, since we saw the package of shortcakes next to the b&w cookies.
I envy you the super fresh strawberries in winter. They're still good when they get here, but nowhere near as good if they'd not spent a week in transit & storage.
Chicken Paella for dinner here. (b&w cookies for dessert)
Chicken Paella sounds interesting. Recipe plz? :D
I'm making fried rice. I also had some pita & hummus, an ice cream sandwich, and an orange/strawberry popsicle. Good stuff :)

Now that sounds like some good eating.
Now that sounds like some good eating.
It was.
Trussed the bird and browned the skin in butter over high heat, then tossed chunks of butternut squash, sliced onion and garlic cloves in the pan & set the chicken on top of it.
Sea salt, fresh cracked pepper and a cup of white wine, then popped in the oven for an hour while fixing the potatoes/parsnips and peas.
Boiled down the pan drippings with tarragon and a pat of butter while the bird rested, before slicing.
I only had a bite of the chicken, but it was damn near perfect. The squash, onions and garlic were to die for.
OMG. I think I'm salivating, just talking about it. I'm not even hungry.
----
Unfortunately, it's time for the icky part - breaking down the carcass, so I can simmer up a new batch of chicken stock in the morning.
Excellent choice.
I have left over chicken, and a bag of wide egg noodles. You may have just solved my "what's for supper" for tomorrow.
I haven't made that in a while. Just need mushrooms, but it should be a gorgeous day to ride to the store.
I'm not sure why the commenter was bothered by the breaking of the greek yogurt in the sauce. In curries, I raise the temps on purpose, to make sure oils separate.
Do it with cream too, unless I'm going for a perfectly smooth sauce.
I'm roasting a free-range, never any hormones, all that good stuff chicken.
Mashed garlic potatoes & parsnips, petite peas.
Sounds healthy, yes?
At least until I mention this meal will take two full sticks of butter, and a pint of heavy cream.
I think tonight shall be Tacos.
Salmon with a peppercorn & garlic crust, pan seared.
Served on couscous salad (parsley, mint, cucumber, red onion and yellow bell pepper)
I wished I'd stopped there. The slice of birthday cake was my one thin mint.

And more than once in a while. I like my ice cream & coffee. And key lime pie. And cheesecake. And berries, covered in fresh whipped heavy cream.

How were the tacos?
I have a craving for the spicy goodness. If the wings for tomorrow were not already in the fridge, I'd be shredding chicken breast and dicing tomatillos.

Not helping my craving. The mango wings would have helped tonight, with a side of avocado and fresh salsa, but I've received four requests to do the wings in a hot garlic teriyaki, instead. :x
Maybe I'll just run away to a mexican dive for tacos and a margarita for lunch tomorrow.
Sea kittens tonight. My girlfriend's grandpa gave me like 6 different fish steaks that he caught while deep sea fishing. I'm not sure what they all are but I know some of it is yellowtail, some appears to be salmon and some appear to be albacore. It's all fresh though and the last one I had was bomb.
I baked it up in a glass brownie pan filled with two fingers of milk, a squeeze of fresh lemon from the tree in my backyard, ginger, salt, and black pepper covered in tin foil. ~15 minutes @ 425 degrees. I also put a dash of tapatio sauce on one side of it to experiment and the extra kick it gave was epic win.

I ended up making sandwiches for just the kids. American in two, mozzarella and provolone in the other.
I had a plate of enchiladas and a big ass margarita, before the movie I ran away to see.
You know, I don't think I've ever made tomato soup from scratch. Soups containing tomatoes, but never just plain tomato soup. (It's one of my favorite things to have with cheese sandwiches too, unless there's a bowl of french onion soup available.)

This is Da Bomb. Its not the hottest stuff you can get, but for some reason its hotter than stuff I've had thats twice the Scoville. Peoples taste change over time, so maybe I'm turning pussy in my old age. I fucked up a number of times and used too much, in chili and jambalaya. One pea-sized drop per serving, if that. Its habanero. I've had this bottle for a year and barely used a tablespoon out of it.

100% true...it's obnoxious & can't have ANY flavor at that point
i had a mishap w/ dave's insanity sauce once.
never had it b4 & put @ teaspoon on the side of the plate....ate most of it w/ my 1st forkful of stuffed peppers....
i was on the floor, in the fetal position,stripped down to my long underwear w/in 5 minutes. the wife had to bring me a glass of milk & a slice of white bread....
i hate annoyingly/unnecessarily hot sauces...
(btw, a buddy took the barely used bottle on an ice-fishing, guy weekend....he said they were eating it on crackers, trying to one-up the next guy....they finished the bottle....how's the rectum doing???)
Yeah, flavor. There is really none. Its too diluted by the time you bring it down to a tolerable level, even if you like extreme heat. Heat is not flavor.
If you want flavor, you've gotta make the food flavorful in whatever way you want without the stuff, then add the stuff to bring the heat. You can't rely on the stuff to bring the flavor at all. I usually use some kind of green bell pepper to bring a recognizable taste to it. You can usually taste that around the heat. It kinda ties the theme together.
Sometimes I'll go old school and use real habaneros and forgo the bottled heat. But that fucks up the deal for the women-folk and kids. Its usually better for everyone to make the pot nice, and then corrupt your own bowl from daddy's bottle of pain.
I'm eating left over meat sauce, spiced up with cayanne pepper and hot sauce over elbow macaroni. Shit is cash.

Try using red or white grapes in a recipe in place of wine, with balsamic vinegar and herbs.
You should get a really good sweet-savory flavor.
They'd also be good cooked into some sort of dressing, to offset spicy sausage - just like you'd use apples or cranberries.

Yes, figs. And the Turkish steak with garlic-fig sauce rocked.
Cooked vidalia onions in butter & olive oil, then added roasted garlic cloves, sea salt, black pepper and diced figs. Poured wine over it, and used the spoon to mash up figs & garlic cloves while wine simmered off. (I'm getting hungry now, just talking about it.)
And tonight, the figs will be stuffed with soft goat cheese and rosemary, and served alongside a couscous salad with feta, cucumbers, bell peppers & black olives.
I never had one. I like saying it, though. Figs! figfigfigfig

I live in Chicago. Last winter, snowplows were spotty at best. They didn't plow any side roads. The plows didn't even show up on Lakeshore or 94 until the snow had been coming down for a while. The roads weren't clear until well after the snow stopped. This city is awesome, but winter is a bitch.

Renters pay property taxes through their rent, so I think they have just as much of a right to bitch about it ;)

I am looking forward to heating up the leftovers tomorrow to eat with Brown Rice Crisps, like nachos.
I had my fondue party tonight. It was delicious: cheddar fondue made with Fiscalini Farmstead cheddar and Bell's Oberon beer. We had bread and apples for dipping (and caramel for the apples which can go either way), merlot and zinfandel wines in addition to beer, and finished it off with a chocolate layer cake for dessert. Really good stuff :)

If the goal of a straight man is to surround himself with as many women as possible to increase his chances of heterosexual intercourse, having a fondue dinner party is definitely an activity which a straight man should be engaging in. Just sayin'.

Aha, you done finally made it.
The other dish I was thinking of was gumbo.
I'm a start from scratch snob on jambalaya & gumbo, but that pan in the 2nd photo does appear to be full of goodness.

I made chicken and mushroom fettucine.Ooh! Thanks for the idea. I bought a big pack of mushrooms at Costco the other day, and was trying to figure out how to use up the last 1/4 of the package. This may be just the thing. Kids won't be eating any of the mushrooms, but that's okay, because I won't be eating any of the chicken.

Dude, I just posted in the recipe thread asking if you had a recipe featuring cauliflower, then saw this. Would you be up for sharing?

Could I trouble you to post your recipe for the apples and pears? I know it's a relatively simple thing but some people do little different things and I'm curious about yours. Mostly because almost everything you mention sounds absolutely delicious.

You got it. Will type up basics for both oven & cooktop versions tonight while kids are at music lessons.

Hit the Julia Child section of my cookbook shelf for tonight's dinner. Poulet Poele A L'Estragon (Casserole-roasted Chicken with Tarragon)
Super simple instructions, but they have to be in order & timed just right. Simmering the neck & giblets with onion & carrot for the brown tarragon sauce while the chicken roasts. Smell is driving dogs to distraction. (They know the cooled tasty bits go to them later, after I strain off the stock.)
Will be serving either with oven baked rice or couscous and steamed green beans.
Oh, Joy? :D
Got any suggestions?

Ginger Duck
Adapted from Cooking for Mr. Latte: A Food Lover's Courtship, with Recipes. Copyright 2003 by Amanda Hesser, (W. W. Norton & Company, 2003).
Serves 4 with no leftovers; recipe can be doubled
1 duck (thawed overnight in the refrigerator), giblets removed
1 onion, peeled and cut in half, or 3 shallots, peeled
2 stalks celery, cut into 3-inch long pieces
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup sherry
1 small bunch watercress, trimmed and washed
1. The day before, stuff the duck with the onion and celery. Place the duck, breast side up, in a large soup pot with enough water to half cover it. Add the ginger and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce the heat so that it simmers very gently (the bubbles should be lazy not fizzy) for 1 hour.
2. After 1 hour, turn the duck over. Add the sugar, soy sauce and salt. Continue simmering for another hour. Turn duck once again and simmer until tender and almost falling apart, about another hour. Turn off the heat and when cool enough to handle, remove the duck carefully from the pot (it tends to fall apart after so much cooking) and place in a roasting pan. Cover and refrigerate until the next day.
3. Pour the broth from the soup pot into a container and chill overnight. A layer of fat will form on top. Scrape it off and discard it. What remains is delicious in rice and soups and can be frozen for months.
4. Before serving, bring the duck to room temperature. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Add the sherry and 1 cup of the defatted duck broth to the roasting pan and place in the oven. Roast uncovered for 30 to 45 minutes, basting occasionally with the juices in the bottom of the pan. The duck is done when it is heated through and the skin is crisp and a dark chestnut brown.
5. Transfer the duck to a serving platter and garnish with lots of watercress (disguising where legs and wings have fallen off, if they have).
I made the ginger duck Christmas day. I used the broth for a great tasting gravy and made a side of fried rice and chow main. It was a nice addition to the traditional tamales we usually have. All around win.
My wife made chicken tamales, along with beans and rice.
And there's no such thing as too much onion (the last thing you add, along with the remaining spices). Yes, I listen to FTL while I cook, and yes, chopping so many onions makes me cry like a schoolgirl. No pain, no gain!

I like to stage the onions. One onion goes into olive oil at the beginning, with the garlic, another is added with spices, for the last hour of cooking, and a little bit of fresh minced onion to sprinkle over top of the soup at the end. Layers up the sweetness of a slow cooked onion with the sharper tastes when it hasn't been cooked as long... or at all.
I was a weight-lifting protein buff in high school (though I was never good-looking), but the protein benefit of meat is lies. Sure a 100g serving of chicken contains about 27 grams of protein (108 protein calories), but it also contains as much as 11 grams of fat (100 fat calories, more if it's fried), a third of your daily maximum of cholesterol (and you should get much less if you want to live longer), tons of toxins, and very little nutrition otherwise. It needs to be combined with good high-fiber side-dishes to aid digestion and provide additional nutrition, and if those side dishes contain any amount of protein that means some of that chicken protein was a waste because your body can only metabolize so much protein every few hours. Eat more than one serving of chicken, as I was often tempted to do, and the nutrition value of your meal decreases further, because the fat, cholesterol, and acid (http://www.balance-ph-diet.com/acid_alkaline_food_chart.html) / toxin damage doubles, while the extra protein simply goes to waste. A good vegan meal contains all the protein your body can digest at a time, but without all the bad stuff, and far, far more vitamins, minerals, fiber, lasting fullness and energy, etc. Oh, and eating chicken also makes you a tax-munching commie (http://bbs.freetalklive.com/index.php?topic=31494). Seriously.

Yummy. I like the attention to details-like the sugar/salted glass.
As a matter of fact, that glass looks magical. Like it is balancing itself on a petrified dragon eye.

Just made me some bean soup myself on Saturday. It was great yesterday and should be outta this world tonight! Plus, it is overcast and a little chilly out, perfect weather for bean soup.
I use a different recipe and substitute the corn bread with sourdough.
I made a new recipe for Chili. Mostly the norm but I soak the beans with some jalapenos and habaneros overnight. Drain them in the morning and throw half the beans with the peppers in a blender and blend. Add mixture into chili. Spices it up a bit. I usually do not care for beans in chili but the added heat makes up for it.
Do y'all like country food?
Bean Soup:
-soak your pinto beans overnight, rinse well, remove any pebbles
-some olive oil in a hot pot
-2 ham hocks, saute them
-diced onion, saute them a little less
-lotsa water
-some salt
-some cumin
-add the beans
-cook 2 hours or so
eat with cornbread:
-some corn meal
-some buttermilk
-an egg
-mix it
-pour into buttered iron skillet
-bake it @ 400 for maybe 20 minutes
have on hand:
-sliced tomatoes
-hot sauce
In a move that will shock and repulse Orthodox Jews and fundamentalist Muslims everywhere, April made Shells and Cheddar and mixed in hamburger and soy bacon bits in with it.
However, our heroine has a sick and couldn't eat more than a few forkfuls of it without feeling full :(
Yeah, the diet works. But then, they ALL work, at least to the extent that anyone can stay on them. Aye, that's the rub--very few people (around 5%) can actually stay on a diet long enough for it to do them much good.
The best of the lot is the "don't eat so freakin' much" diet. How can you do that? Well, you just look at the suggested serving size and then don't eat more than it says.

Atkins doesn't work for anyone.
Atkins doesn't work for anyone.
Yes it does. My childhood best friend's father has been doing it since the early 70's before he even heard of Atkins. Reducing the amount of starchy food is the key to any healthy diet. Having grown up in Wisconsin he was the only healthy weight father I knew. As usual, the gov got it completely wrong with the food pyramid.
I agree no "diet" works. What works is changing ones eating habits.
Oh and my friends father is still healthy, alive and kicking while many of the other men his age are dead from heart attacks.
Breakfast burritos for me tonight with chi rezzo and hot salsa. Delicious.
I had some Arby's, then a slice of pizza from Sbarro that my father's wife got at the airport and never ate...and lunch was McDonald's. Considering I almost never eat fast food, three different places in one day is probably a record for me.
Poppy seeds?
Makes me wanna slap it right off the table.
I had the meatballs at Ikea over the weekend. Simple, cheap, but yummy.
Vegan soups based on green split peas is what I'm all about the past few days, trying the infinite ingredient variations. Adding other legumes or potatoes is mediocre, carrots are OK, but the ingredient that works best is chopped asparagus added to the thin green goodness along with chopped onions and other spices like 5 minutes before it's done cooking. Whole-grain pasta added ~8 minutes before it's done cooling works too.
i have tried ground chicken before to cook spaghetti with and could not get it right.... is there some special secret to cooking ground chicken. i can use turkey just fine but i ALWAYS have a problem with chicken.

Dries out too easily. I get around that by using fresh herbs & finely grated veggies - usually onion & carrot - to add extra moisture, along with a little bit of olive oil or melted butter. The milk & breadcrumbs can help too, but I often have only Very Vanilla Silk in the house, so go with the veggies.
If you were having problems getting the chicken in the spaghetti without it drying out my solution would be:
Cut chicken into pieces (I'd do strips).
Place into hot skillet with melted butter underneath.
Put lid on. Crack lid and spray enough water on to steam.
Cook chicken this way, then mix with spaghetti immediately before eating.

Turkey burgers for everybody else, black bean burger for me.
Sweet potato fries.
Then, the kids loaded up on marshmallow fluff while I was mixing it with powdered sugar & butter to make fondant.
I would like to know how exactly one makes a black bean burger.
have you made apple burgers???? we used to make black bean burgers all the time, and i tried with apples instead and they were really good too. you grate the apples and put almost the same spices in and they are awesome, my kids will eat these before they touch a black bean burger
I would like to know how exactly one makes a black bean burger.
When you have leftover rice and beans, or just leftover rice & grab a can of beans out of the pantry.
Minced onion, garlic, cilantro, peppers, or go super easy & use a couple spoons of salsa.
Mash beans. Mix everything together & form patties.
Place in freezer until you're ready to cook them.
Works great in the pan, but if you're grilling, you have to put on foil, so it doesn't fall apart.

That sounds great! My kids won't eat the bean burgers, whether I'm using black, pinto or black-eyed peas. I might be able to get them to try apple. What type of apple do you use?

Then, they got to pick the menu. We're having:
Tilapia with Balsamic Butter Sauce
Thyme Mashed Potatoes
Sugar Snap Peas
Am hoping getting to set the menu puts them in a better mindset to try fish.
If not, the back up is dark chocolate lacey cookies for dessert as bribe.

With lobster? I would go towards a "sweeter" direction.
I think its hardcore that you have lobster on hand to cook. It makes me think if he would have asked for something like zebra steaks, an hour later you'd be serving some for diner

I was working on filleting the tuna properly for the nigiri this time. I also made a spicy tuna mix with chirashi sauce in the food processor. That is a nice way to use the uglier parts of the fillet.
I think I have the technique down, I just need to work on a couple recipies and cut back on the red caviar; too salty.
