L00Ks Good Beth!
Would you believe, my son loves hamburgers, but will never eat meatloaf.

The pasta gets toasted like you do with Rice-a-Roni (you know I love that!) and then absorbs the flavors and moisture like a one-pot pasta dish. I checked out a few recipes and came up with what I think we'll like.

I like carrots and I adore peas but I've never cared for peas and carrots together. They do look so very pretty on a plate, though. Don't get me wrong, as I eat them when they're served to me but I just don't find they go together very well. The first time I ever saw them served together was school lunches, as we never had them at home.
And anything tastes good with mashed potatoes!

I am the same way when it comes to peas and carrots. Like then both, but not together.
What I do, is separate each pea and carrot into their own pile, and then eat them.

Start the thin sliced shallots in cold oil and don't let the oil get too hot, keep stirring. The real tip is to take them out BEFORE they turn very brown, just when they look dry. They continue to brown up after they are out of the oil. I can't tell you how many shallots I ended up burning before I figured it out.
Or, ask Imelda how she makes hers.....she sprinkles them on her foods all the time.
bethk wrote:What I didn't realize, Michelle, since I had never heard of the dish before was that they sell the Mexican vermicelli already broken in a package in the Latin section of the grocery store.

I did not know that. It also contains wood pulp. I did not know that either. The real Parmesan is labeled Parmigiano-Reggiano. From now on I will only buy the real stuff. Who wants to eat wood pulp?

I can't think of anything I pick out of food. If it were possible, I would pick out citrus rinds from pie or anything else. I can't stomach the stuff. Oh! I just thought of something I do pick apart: fruit pies. I love the juices and sauce but I don't like the fruit itself. It is a textural thing with me. I pick out the fruit. I pick raisins out of cookies too.

Question: I am always using large quantities of Parmesan cheese and find the grating exhausting. Do you grate all of your cheese at once and store it in the fridge or grate only what you need? Also what do you use for grating? I use a Microplane and it does a great job but it is tiring.
