What are you cooking today and how?

[Justin Case]

I cheated, tonight.
I was at the store....thinking about getting some chicken, to cook for supper. I couldn't decide how I was gonna cook it, so I was standing there, looking at chicken parts. I was kinda thinking about roasting a whole bird, when I walked by the deli, and smelled the rotisserie chickens. They smelled real, real good.

A whole roasting chicken was $4.49. A whole rotisserie chicken (That smelled real, real good!) was $4.98.

Heck....$4.98 was such a bargain, I got a container of baked beans and a container of tater salad! LOL

oh yeah,,, those are GOOD !

About 1:30 this morning, I started to get really hungry. So I opened a can of them Bush's Best Baked Beans, tossed in some ham, and microwaved it for 90 seconds. Washed it down with a Corona.

Still have the windows open here.

OK...here's my report. LOL

Tater salad.......not so great.
Chicken...pretty dang good.
Baked beans.....Real good! In fact, the baked beans were the best out of all of it.

That's the reason why you need to welcome with open arms anything your sweetie brings into the house.
The ducks are but a small price to pay for her putting up with your lethal emissions.

Some of you may have read this in another thread, but I used the left-over chicken, and made some chicken and dumplings.

For some reason, it didn't seem to have as much taste, as I expected.

(It was still pretty good, though......I did have seconds.)

I attended a funeral this afternoon. My friends are Jewish, and after the service we were invited to my friend's home for a traditional meal, called a "seudat havra’ah" or "meal of consolation."

Smoked whitefish, lox, whitefish salad, chopped liver, a huge variety of Kosher meats and salads, and, of course, bagels and cream cheese. Tons of pastries as well, including one of my favorites, Raspberry Rugelach.

For anyone who's never tasted Rugelach, here's a recipe worth trying. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/raspber...ch/detail.aspx

Needless to say, I'm stuffed at the moment.

That sounds like good food, but I must confess....I'm an old country boy, from the south. I don't really have any frame of reference, for Kosher food.
About the closest thing to that for me, is a kosher dill pickle.
(But I do like them.......the big fat ones!)

Do what I do. Broaden your food horizons!

It's simple. All you do is make a list of your friends of different cultures and national origins. Obtain their phone numbers and their mother's phone numbers.

Call their mothers and ask them to make dinner for you. Beg if necessary. Bring wine, flowers, and your girlfriend with you.

Or I could go to the chi-nee place...and get some who-flung-what.

Instead of the sum-yung-boi you usually order?

ROLMAO !!! That was a good one !!!

I had mashed tatters.

I started with tatters.

I peeled 'em, cut 'em up and boiled 'em.

Then, I mashed 'em with granny's old masher.

Next, I added butter, cheese, sour cream, chives, salt and pepper.

I cleaned out the bowl with a piece of bread.

IT WAS GREAT!

dandelion fritters
baked winter squash from last year's garden
green bean casserole

3 cheese tortellini
deviled eggs

Fortunately, the computer chair is on rollers and there ARE a couple of holes left in my belt.

This is leftover night.

This is basically a leek and potato soup with leftover Ramps and Hot Italian sausage. I made this tonight without a recipe the measurements are approximate. I cook to taste when it comes to leftovers. Turned out real good. Try this at your own risk.

2 cups of leeks Cleaned and chop fine
1/2 cup ramps cleaned and chopped fine
4 lbs of potatoes peeled and cut to 1" cubes
1 lb of hot italian sausage cooked and sliced in disks.
2 cups of chicken stock
1 tbs basil dried
1 tbs majorum
1/2 tsp thyme
1 tsp butter
Celery salt
salt
pepper
hot sauce or red pepper flakes

In a dutch oven:

Heat the butter and sweet the leeks and ramps until softened, salt and pepper to taste. about 10 minutes

Add potatoes and chicken stock along with the measured ingredients. simmer for about 20 minutes.

I add the celery salt to taste (some don't like it)
salt and pepper to taste and additional herbs to taste.
Hot sauce if you like some. "heat"

Take some of the potato soup and blend it if you like a creamy soup. (we avoid dairy because of allergies)

Add the cooked sausage sliced into disks.

Heat for 10 minutes and serve.

I had a pot of snap beans and taters simmerin' with a ham hock for a couple hours, a piece of pork loin on the grill, (With dry rub.) and a small pot of rice.

The snap beans and taters were pretty good, the pork was real good, and the rice sucked. I still can't cook rice.
