Status: offline 		Hey everyone... I am just wondering what your favorite meal to prepare??

I love to cook... and I love to cook for Sweets... The last time I made him dinner, I made chicken and fettichini alfredo.... all from scratch... my own recipe... and i must say, next time, I am going to just buy the stuff in a jar... lol  But I would love to hear anyone else's ideas... I would love to try and get a few more meals to add to my favorites... I have a couple, but I would love to hear more...  Thanks... :-D

I have a few others too, on my recipe blog, which is coming along sadly slowly.

buy big chunk of cow, season to taste heavily and throw in roasting pan fat side up. it goes splat.
chopped desired veggies into semi uniform chunks and coat in melted butter..throw on more seasoning.
start cooking covered at 350, then wait a while, turn it down 50 degrees, wait awhile, turn it down, until it's all done and yummy.

I use to watch them making it at a restaurant. The real(and artery clogging way) is whipping cream, butter and parmesean cheese. It doesnt take long to make either.

Status: offline 		This time of year I like to make soups. Big pots of made from scratch soups. On the weekends I made a couple big meals (last was a vegetable beef barley soup and some chili, and a meatloaf with mashed, and a batch of choc chip cookies). The left overs last all week. No need to eat out, easy and fast when I come home from work. If we want something new with it, a brown and serve loaf of bread.

In  addition I've probably got 3-4 different Glad containers of leftovers in the freezer I could pull out and zap for a tasty quick meal. One is an awsome enchilada casserole thing I just created with some left over roasted pork, black beans and some home made enchilada sauce my sister in law from Colorado showed me how to make. Add some cheese and layer it all like lasagna in a 9x12 pan with some left over home made tortillas and it is awsome. Heat, add some fresh salsa, sour cream and a salad and you've got a very filling dinner.

During the summer I will grill some extra food on the weekend. Like some extra marinated chicken breasts. During the week I can slice them cold on a salad to make a yummy dinner. Or in a pasta sauce. I have 4 main pasta sauces I make that I can add or subtract things to make all sorts of different flavours.

If you enjoy cooking, it's easy to get the basics down and then start thinking outside the box.

Status: offline 		TANDOORI CHICKEN

MEAT
Simple straightforward chicken portions, both breasts and legs or thighs. Wash the portions thorough and remove the skin. Make 4-5 deep lacerations on each piece with a knife.

THE TANDOORI
2-4 tablespoons of tandoori seasoning
a large pot of natural yogurt
vinegar
a teaspoon of groundnut or sunflower oil.

Combine all the above ingredients until you get a semi-solid red paste and liberally coat the pieces of chicken. Refrigerate for a minimum 7 hours or ideally 24 hours.

THE BREAD
a pound and a half of fine durum or plain flour
a cup and a half of water salt
mixed herbs and spices
The idea is to create a dough like for bread but to roll it out flat. Sprinkle the top side with mixed herbs and spices and pat them into the dough.

Prepare an oven as hot as you can get it. Insert the tandoori chicken first and then 15 minutes later add the bread. Allow 30-45 minutes cooking time (depending on the size of the chicken portions and the thickness of the bread.

Serve with mango chutney, lime pickle and something to drink.

*disclaimer* All measurements and cooking times are approximate as I rarely measure stuff.

But I can't stress the emphasized part enough. LaT, I wish I could send my 19 yo daughter to you. She says she can cook but her entire life, she refused to come any where near the kitchen and learn the basics and now wonders why recipes fail on her. Her idea of "what's for dinner tonight?" "TAKEOUT!" comes from her dad's side of the family.

I have recipes thanks to old family members going back to the 1800's (that are really unuseable because you can't get bear fat or lard or some of the other items called for) not to mention that the methods they used would be considered unsafe in this day age. I've modified a few of them but it's tricky because they didn't measure portions. Even my grandmother "just knew" how much to put in.

Are you looking for any recipes or just main courses? One thing I do that Lumus loves is to slice 4-5 potatos, lay in the bottom of a small roaster, slice an onion, lay them on top on the potatos, dot with butter, pour in approximately half cup of liquid of your choice, I use either chicken broth or beer, then lay on top of that 4-5 pork chops or 3-4 chicken breasts, season to taste (salt, pepper, herbs) cover with lid and bake in a preheated 350° for approximately 30-45 minutes  or until potatoes are tender and meat is cooked.

Now to get that pork roast in the slow cooker for today!

P.S. Got a family traditional recipe for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip bread if anyone wants it - just cmail me....

Status: offline 		I'm one of those cooks who uses recipes as guidelines only.  They inspire me to make my own yummy creations.  I also "just know" how much of something to put in & how long something should cook.  My mother's cousin cooks the same way & we decided that the only way to hand down our "recipes" was to video them.  I've annoyed many people by telling them to cook it till it's done.  When they ask how long that is, I have to say I don't have a clue.  LOL

For cold weather meals with leftovers, I make what we call "I Don't Know".  This is a casserole type dish with rice or some sort of pasta, some kind of meat(s) &   veggie(s), & something to hold the thing together:  Mushroom soup, sour cream, tomato sauce, etc.  Don't forget the seasonings & add cheese in & on top if you like.  The reason it's called I Don't Know is that there was a potluck at work right before our monthly payday, so I put a bunch of stuff into a crock pot & plugged it in to cook behind my desk.  My co-workers would wander through & say, "That smells good!  What is it?" 

My Father used to make a frittata-like dish out of similar ingredients, which we dubbed the Anderson Omelet.  Want more details, cmail me.

OMG, you have nooooo idea how good this sounds right now, Linnaea!!! Lumus isn't big on casseroles and I LOVE them. It's no fun (and a waste) to make them for just me. Can I have dinner at your place tonight?

(Oh wait, I finally convinced him to let me make a pork roast in the slow cooker we got for the wedding..... *sigh*)

First off, THAT'S NOT FAIR!!!!  My DDs don't take away from my brain!!!!


What really upsets me to where I can't EVEN express it, is that Sweets has a freaking degree in Culinary Arts.... Like no lie... and I have NEVER seen him cook.... He asked me what I wanted to do this weekend, and I said I wanted to come to his house, and have him cook dinner for me... and he said "Ok.... How's hotpockets sound?"  COME ON!!!!!!  I just wanted to slap him!  (and hope that he spanks me afterwards! hehehe!)

But thank you everyone for your ideas... keep 'em coming! 

I love to make soft pretzels, and onion rings.... The onion rings are my own recipe, and it actually works well!  I love to take a recipe and every time I make something, change it a little bit... then I can see what works and what doesn't... The only problem with that is, I always forget what I did the last time b/c I don't write stuff down... lol 

Oh! I made cream puffs once... they were CRAP! but then, the next day, I was watching Good Eats with Alton Brown on Food Network the next day, and he showed me what I did wrong.... (I must say that the wedding ring he wears REALLY bothers me.... the intellectual, funny, and useful type.... he makes me drool! lol) The next time I made them, PERFECT!  If anyone wants that recipe, I would be more than happy to let anyone know.... :)

Status: offline 		I love to make this thing that I call "That Stuff".  Its just browned ground beef, rice, a smallish can of cream of mushroom soup, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a small bit of instant coffee crystals (I know, it sounds gross, but its GOOD!  i promise!).  Ya mix them in a bowl after the rice and beef are cooked, season, and eat!  Easy to make, and hard to screw up, great on a cold day!

Edited cuz I am a dork.
