I forgot to tell you, the chicken recipe was a hit with dd. Being an inexperienced one, this one was so tasty he asked where from I got the recipe. He knows I burn water without a book in hand. I just smirked and remained mum.

This one also will be tried. :hatsoff:


And I will know, whom to thank next time, :thumbsup:

Gentlemen don't read other's letter, :crash:

I never said, I'm one.

Should have said before I got married.

Glad you liked it. Just to mention on the dump cake, don't try to get "all" the lumps out. Sprinkle dry mix evenly, if a really "big" lump break it up a bit. Nickle size lumps or less leave them.

Not really a recipe, more a suggestion.

I did a pork loin on the grill yesterday. I marinaded it in a bottle of raspberry vinaigrette with some extra spices (sage, thyme, basil) and about a quarter cup of lemon juice.

Did it on my grill for about an hour (it was about a 3 pound loin) using the indirect heat method...turned out awesome! :yummie:

Sounds good, not sure on the lemon, but I love the rasp. vinaigrette.

A friend just sent me this. She makes it with leftover chicken breast. Its one of the tricks I taught her When making grilled chicken breast meal, cook a few extra and have a fast one dish meal the next day using any leftover and the extra two you cooked already. Here's a good one.

Chicken Tetrazzini

Ingredients:

1 can (10 3/4 oz.) Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup OR 98% Fat Free Cream of Mushroom Soup
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley OR 2 tsp. dried parsley
1/4 cup chopped red pepper OR pimiento (optional)
4 cups cooked spaghetti
2 cans (5 oz. each) Premium Chunk Chicken Breast, drained (I would use my leftover)

Directions:

MIX soup, water, cheese, parsley, pepper, chicken and spaghetti in sauce pot. Heat through.

Variation (she mixed also adding some canned mushrooms, put in greased casserole dish, covered with some shredded cheddar cheese and baked at 350 till cheese melted.)

Pasta Sauce

2 table spoons of butter.
2-3 cloves or garlic finely chopped
12 oz. diced tomatos with juice. run them through a food processor for a few seconds.
1 tbsp tomato paste
2 teaspoons of sugar (it's 2 for every 1 of paste)
3/4 cup white **** (don't use cooking ****. too much salt)
3/4 cup water (i like to use a little less than 3/4)
kosher salt
course ground black pepper

In small frying pan (or sauce pan) melt the butter. As soon as the butter is melted toss in the chopped garlic and let sit for a second. DON'T BURN GARLIC. Toss in the tomatos and then add rest of the ingredients and stir. Cover sauce and let cook for about 5-6 minutes or until it reaches the consistency you like.

OK its almost summer. I just found this link for "Grilling Tips" its awesome. Videos to watch, great step by step instructions on many things. Another site with a "recipe box saver too", makes favorites easy.

I like the "mini man burgers" vid. Easy hamburger prep done in a cookie sheet. Wonderful way to do it.

3 really simple (almost cheating) recipes for vegetarians. the first 2 are suitable for camping.
1 spicy cold black beans

1 can of black beans ( sun-vista is a common brand )
some salsa ( your favorite )
fresh lemon or lime juice ( optional )

drain the beans, add salsa and citrus juice to taste.
enjoy with spoon or chips.

2 spicy grilled corn

ears of corn
fresh garlic, minced
fresh serrano or jalepeno peppers, minced

the idea is to grill the corn with the garlic and peppers in the wrapper. use either foil or the cornhusk itself. adding a few drops of water helps to steam the corn, also.

3 a smoothie

frozen fruit chunks ( pineapple, banana, mango, strawberries )
milk or vanilla soy milk
protein powder either vanilla flavor or unflavored ( optional )
yogurt ( optional )
ice cream ( optional )

blend in a blender until blended. experiment with ratios until the consistency is to your liking.

i started making these so my **** would get some nutrients. also, bananas that aren't delicious any more ( black skin, mushy ) go into the freezer.
my favorite is just pineapple, banana, soy milk, vanilla protein opwder.

thank you.

 

[Clarkie25]

Pasta Sauce


3/4 cup white **** (don't use cooking ****. too much salt)
3/4 cup water (i like to use a little less than 3/4)

change those 2 measurements to 1/4 cup. 3/4 is too much.

Great stuff people. Anyone have a recipe for good ********* pork chops? Something just a tad different from the usual? ****** recipe?

 

[negator]

Great stuff people. Anyone have a recipe for good ********* pork chops? Something just a tad different from the usual? ****** recipe?

my *** used to make sauerkraut-********* porkchops. here's how i remember it:

sear the chops in an iron skillet with salt, pepper, and paprika. then layer on sliced potatoes and canned sauerkraut (drained). cover and put in the oven ~350 for about 30 mins. it was incredible. it was even better the next day. cube the pork and just make a hash with the taters and kraut.


here's a variation on texas caviar using avacado ( an acquired taste )

1 can garbanzo beans (chick peas)
1 can black beans
1 can black-eyed peas
corn, fresh or canned (optional)
1 haas avacado, diced (optional)
rice **** vinegar (or your favorite type )
olive oil
cilantro, torn or chopped
chopped onion ( optional )
salsa, just a little (optional)
1-2 jalepeno peppers, diced
salt, pepper, and hot sauce to taste

drain the canned ingredients and marry everything in a big bowl. the liquids should be just enough to dress the solids, i'm not sure of the proper quantities. you decide how spicy to make it. substitute any bean if you like, any will work. if you can get avacados ( they must be the brown warty ones called haas ) do try them. cover with plastic and refrigerate about an hour. i usually can't wait that long, and have hoovered half the batch before it "sets".

enjoy:thumbsup:

I will definitely try this. My *** did something similar with turnips, potatoes and pork roast.

I also do the cubed thing you mentioned next day when I make ham, cabbage, potatoes and carrots. Drain leftovers, cube up them, then add a few drops of oil to my nonstick skillet and fry it up real fast. Almost wok style, just to heat and singe (brown) a bit. Yummy.

Pepper Steak with Horseradish Sauce.

1 8oz strip steak. If not already tenderized you'll want to sprinkle some meat tenderizer on both sides of the steak. Let that sit for a minute or 2. Next heat olive oil and butter in a small saute pan. Use enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan and about a tablespoon of butter. While that's heating up (watch it so it doesn't burn) you'll want to cover both sides of your steak with cracked black pepper. Oil and butter should be hot by now so go ahead and place the steak in saute pan. Be careful not to splash yourself. All depending on how thick of a steak you have the cooking time will vary. I like a little thicker than a hockey puck.

Onto the sauce.

In another small saute pan pour in a small amount of olive oil (quarter size will work) and a few small shaves of butter. Soon as that melts and heats up a little bit throw in a small handful of chopped green onions. Follow that up with a splash (1/2 cup) of Sam Adams ****. After the **** poor in about a cup and a half of heavy cream. Spoon in about a teaspoon of horseradish followed by about a teaspoon of beef base. Now it's time to add some color so go ahead and poor in a good amount of A1 Steak Sauce. Don't be cheap with it. Stir all that up together with a spoon. It could tend to boil rapidly so turn your flame down to a medium.

Now go ahead and check your steak. There should be a pretty nice peppery crust on the one side. If that's the case you can flip it over to the other side. Turn the flame down and cover. Like I mentioned before, the cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the steak so be sure to check it after a few minutes (cut it open at the fattest point) and make sure it's where you like it. If the steak is cooked enough to where you're happy go ahead and slice it up. Try to keep the slices fairly thin.

By now your sauce should have a nice golden color to it and a good consistency. If it's sticks to the backside of the spoon you're done. Shut the flame off.

Arrange your steak on the plate with either a potato, french fries,or whatever else you'd like. Drizzle your horseradish sauce over the steak slices and enjoy.

*sidenote* The reason I didn't go with exact measurements is because a lot of this is recipe is done by eyeballing.

I had no idea this thread existed. Very cool.
Here's one:

Bulgogi (Beef), 6 Servings

2 lb Beef sirloin, lean
4 tb Light soy sauce
2 tb ;water
2 tb Scallion; minced
1 Garlic clove; minced
3 tb Soy sauce, dark
1 tb Sesame oil
1 ts Black bean paste
2 tb Shao xing
1 tb Sugar
1/4 ts Cayenne pepper
1/2 ts Ginger; freshly grated
1 1/2 ts Sugar
1 tb Sesame seed, toasted
1 tb Oil

BULGOGI SAUCE
Tabasco; to taste
Salt; to taste
1 Garlic clove; crushed
1 ts Sesame seed, toasted
1 ts Scallion; minced
1 tb Oil

* Toasted sesame seed: Place 1 cup sesame seed and 1 teaspoon salt
in a skillet, brown seeds slowly until they are toast-colored and
puffed. Stir constantly while toasting. Remove from heat and allow to
cool. Pulverize seeds in a mortar or a blender. Store in a tightly
capped bottle.

Cut beef into very thin strips and pound to flatten; then cut into
medium size squares. Combine all the other ingredients. The
marinade, as the name of the dish implies, should be quite fiery. Mix
meat and marinade and set aside for 4 to 5 hours, or longer if
refrigerated. Broil very quickly over hot charcoal, dip in Bulgogi
sauce (next recipe) and serve immediately with white rice.

NOTE: The marinated beef can also be fried in hot peanut oil for
just a few minutes. Crush garlic with sugar and salt to make a smooth
paste. Combine with remaining ingredients. Dip broiled or fried beef
slices in the sauce.
