I do like an cook vegetables just steamed and love roasted and grilled and raw .
I don't have to ever give up on the old version.
We ate all veggies soft. Any hard ones, then someone would say..."These are not cooked, they are R A W !"..... Sheer Panic; especially grandma.

Yup ~ and always was said as if you would get worms if you ate it, like the raw dough. Hahahahaha! Of course, the raw dough was usually full of 'critters' that would grow in your belly if you didn't bake it off to kill 'em. You may not have seen those little devils but they were in most of the flour.

Lately I've been hungry for just sauce and noodles, without the meat. I wonder if my body is tellin' me to try vegetarian for a while ~ nah, not likely! LOL
Tonight was 'by special request'. He will be leaving in a day or so and he wanted the chicken fingers I always made for him when he was little. Of course he waited until I was dishing everything up to notice the potatoes and say, "Oh, man, I was hoping you would make the same potatoes as last night...." So sad ~ his bad. He should have said something earlier if he wanted a repeat on the fried potatoes ~ the kid has good taste, they were REALLY good last night.
But you'll see something on my plate that you don't usually see....I put my peas on top of my smashed potatoes! Woo Hoo!!! My food is TOUCHING! Only happens with peas or corn and boiled or mashed potatoes. ((I'm such a baby.....LOL))
Nope, no doggy bag. I wasn't going to leave any of that perfectly done sirloin. Left part of the baked potato. This is getting expensive, my sis and I have found out that we really like nice places. I keep telling my children........... "It's coming out of your inheritance." And they think it's great and tell me spend all you like, just please don't put a mortgage on the condo! LOL I am so lucky and spoiled.bethk wrote:Gee, Lore.....maybe if you brought part of your steak home in a 'doggy bag' you could plan to make a nice STEAK SALAD! That sounds great.
I would have loved to plan to have a 'fried chicken salad' tomorrow with the leftover chicken tenders that I made for tonight's supper. UNFORTUNATELY, the 13 year old ATE the leftovers about half an hour ago.....LOL

Your chicken fingers looks good even to me Beth. Like the crispy looking edges.

Glad to see you are back on line Deb. Was beginning to wonder where yee hath been lately.Bugster2 wrote:Been under the weather these last few weeks so I haven't felt much like cooking or talking. I did make a batch of Tommy Bahama's crab bisque that was really good. Tonight is pizza. I am not very good at making pizza's.
I was watching Food Paradise and I saw a technique for cutting large quantities of tomatoes that I had never seen before. The chef filled a huge sheet pan with tomatoes. I couldn't tell what kind. He then put another sheet pan on top of the other pan. He took out a knife that could have been a machete. Really long. He put his hand on top of the pan to hold it steady and slid the knife blade between the two pans and used a sawing motion and cut the length of the pan. Viola! all those tomatoes were cut in half in a few seconds.
