We enjoy a Hawaiin type pizza. I take a flatbread, spread a little pesto on top, then a little pizza sauce, cooked Italian sausage, slices of red pepper and pineapple and finally mozzarella cheese. If I was home I would sprinkle with KA pizza sprinkles. Oh then I bake it.
BA I really like the tsardust spice and Arizona dreaming. Too bad we aren't neighbors I could share some with you.
Happy Birthday BA! Your dinner sounds delish!
For happy hour I'm going to try Chimichurri meatballs. I'm cheating and using frozen meatballs but making the sauce.
A lot of people back in the 50's had those huge metal meat grinders. My mother had one but I can't remember seeing her use it. She also had a mangler but not for cooking.
We had leftover lasagna from a popular Italian market that makes meals to go. It was very good!
I made my husband's favorite meal to put together when he was single: rice a roni with ground beef. I added some veggies to spruce it up.
Since my husband and are sick with colds I made chicken soup with leftover rotisserie chicken. I did add onion, peas and noodles. Weather here in Florida is not great!
I bought a rotisserie chicken at Winn Dixie on our first evening in Florida. The next evening I made chicken noodle soup with the broth I made from the bones. Couldn't find a strainer so I had to buy one. Of course the next day I found one in our unit.
How can you cut in to something that beautiful?
BA what is the ratio of butter to avocado oil in baked goods? I notice avocado oil has become very popular. On another note my husband often sits in the car if I go to Homegoods too. The pressure to look fast drives me crazy.
I made Eating Well's chicken with sundried tomato sauce. The sauce was good but the thin chicken cutlets I used turned out like rubber. So we had sauced rubber...and rice.
Thanks! I think I'll freeze them and see what happens. We leave for Florida soon and will be back in 3 months!
We had crab cakes with sweet potato fries and coleslaw. I used cilantro in my cakes instead of parsley. I made the Old Bay seasoning from a recipe on the internet. I really really like cilantro and feel bad for those who can't like it.
Every year I make the German stolen that my German neighbor Gerta introduced me to 43 years ago. I actually watched her make it but I could never duplicate hers! I used to search far and wide for the farmers cheese she used, I purchased the Dr Oetker essences and I hunted down lard at the local supermarket. My husband insists I make it anyway and now it is a tradition. Every year it comes out differently. This year I replaced the farmers cheese with cottage cheese. I also substituted extra butter for the lard. I couldn't find the Dr Oetker baking powder so I used my regular baking powder. ( I also discovered that the German baking powder in the packet wasn't the same as our baking powder)! I didn't have the essences either so I substituted extracts. Well this year I did not overbake the loaves but they spread out like never before. The non crunchy part tastes good. Oh well there's always next year.
