Of course, reflecting back on my childhood preferences, I'll even cut the crust off of the bread.

    This gourmet presentation will be washed down with a tall ice cold glass of Ovaltine Chocolate Milk.

    I used to ask for my sandwiches to be made out of the heels of the loaf.

    It's cold and raining here, today. I decided to fix a plain ol' pot of beans. The funny thing is, there is something very comforting about starting to cook anything by putting a hambone in a big pot.

    anyone that was at the jamboree remember that fantastic apple cake Winnie baked?

    Well when she left she walked off and left about half that cake in the bearproof box at the campsite.

    I took it home and stuck it in the freezer. Been rationing it out all winter.

    I finished the last peice this afternoon. It was still delicious!
    If you didn't bring jerky what did I just eat?

    Well, I stumbled across these things at the store:

    It's my belief that just about an food can be improved by being encased in pastry. I was thinking cornish pasties or wee little cherry pies, but I ended up going with the obvious -- empanadas. I decided to make chicken in a mole sauce, with pepitas, raisins, onions, and diced turnips for the filling.

    I can't help but pleat the seams, like for gyoza. But I eventually got the hang of the rolled edge.

    Gracious, they turned out nice! But so not on the diet. So I had two for dinner, two went in the fridge for lunch, and the rest - into the freezer for a rainy day.

    Jumbo coconut shrimp with an orange-lime-cayenne dipping sauce and a rice-veggie medley.

    Almond crusted chicken breasts cooked on the grill. Sweet corn, baked beans and a small salad.

    Cholent (Jewish stew, akin to both a traditioonal beef stew and a chili)

    Take 2 pounds of beef cubed, chuck is nice.
    In a ziplock bag add seasoning 2 tbs flour Salt, Pepper (I like sazon, garlic powder, adobo) coat beef well

    Brown beef with 2 tbs of VEG oil, not olive oil (it has too low of a smoke point and u want the bits to remain viable for deglazing
    After the beef is browned add to slow cooker
    Deglaze with vodka, or beef stock, or red wine.
    Make sure to cook the vodka down well as slow cookers will leave a alcohol flavor

    Add to slow cooker

    Add one can of beans (drained) and the same can worth of water

    Heat on high 6 hours (keep an eye on it near the end you don't want too much liquid but you don't want it soupy either.

    This is a really simplified version of the dish but tis pretty tasty.

    A petite filet, grilled. Roasted brussells sprouts. Steamed broccoli. And I loaded a baked potato, I've been a good boy lately and thought I deserved it.

    Wine not pictured. But it came from a seemingly bottomless box.

    It would be a feast dining at your table even without the meat, it's that good. AND, you serve wine!

    Awww thanks, Benesse! As luck would have it, tonight is our vegetarian night. We're having roasted baby artichokes from the garden, and minestrone soup. Trying to work in at least one meatless dinner a week, to eat healthier, save money, and help the environment . So far, it's been good. A bit of a challenge, but in a good way.

    GS, you'll be amazed how used to it you can get especially cooking the way you do. Creative ingredients, full flavored, hot and spicy. When people thing of vegetarian food they think of bland hospital gruel, not something that could rock your world.
