Fresh corn on the cob
Yellow squash from our garden
Garlic parmesan bread
Brown Rice
BBQ'd Salmon

What is on your plate lately? Try to show a picture, without it doesn't do your meal any justice.

[Sombeech]

I had 4 cobs last night.

McFarland Corn!!!

It's growing in popularity up here. My family grows sweet corn on the farm and sells it to all of the produce stands.

[Shan]

Drool! That looks awesome.

I will have leftover Chicken Marsala and Shrimp Scampi. My Italian mother in law made a large dinner just before she left. She was here for 12 days from NJ.

So I'm guessing it was pretty authentic eh?

[Shan]

I guess so, but I have nothing to compare it to! The grandma is from Rome, and I'm sure she passed her recipes down. But they are so calorie laden.... must go biking...

[Wasatch Rebel]

We're having a going away party for my son this Saturday. I'm cooking dutch oven au gratin potatoes, terminator beans (also dutch oven), grilled burgers and dogs. We'll also be having a veritable cornucopeia of salads andd desserts. It should be good, but I guess as the cook, I'm eatin' last.

WOW!! Try to snap a few photos.......that sounds great!!! You know there is almost as much satisfaction cooking for others as eating it yourself. Shan mentioned her Italian mother in law. Italians love to see you eat and some even get a bit offended when you cant put it away. I have eaten with many of them and they have like 3 or 4 course meals. I had a hard time putting it all down. :lol8: Great food though, I luv it!

[crazy horse]

mmmm...I'm so hungry right now, I wish that there was an Italian mother-in-law at my house to cook up some food for me.

I need to get some from you guys. Let me know where I can get some wholesale. :2thumbs:

[accadacca]

Dinner tonight:

yellow squosh

roll type wrap w/turkey, bacon, and cheese.

[DaveOU812]

Wow. I bet that roll/wrap thing kicked some serious arse. I gotta get me a wife who can cook. :eat:

[Sombeech]

Did Denise make that?

[DaveOU812]

She must have. She makes this pasta salad that is awesome. They left it for me last time. I ate the whole bowl.

Yeah I must admit, she is getting pretty good these days. Beats the mac and cheese we had in college. :haha:

[accadacca]

Ok, I guess I am the only person eating dinner on here? :lol8: I know rockgremlin brews up some good eats. Let see those pictures folks....

Tonight for us:

BBQ'd pork chops
Beans with bacon
Potato wedges

[Sombeech]

[rockgremlin]

I'm workin on a good one. Hold tight.

[accadacca]

I'm workin on a good one. Hold tight.
Damn WTF are you cookin'? Waiting for the crops to grow? :lol8: I thought I would bring this post up from the dead. It seems that I am the only one eating dinner. Come on post em.

[TreeHugger]

Frozen burritos. Trust me, you dont need a picture! :2thumbs:

ALLLOOOOOOOOOOHA!!!! :haha:

[derstuka]

Pizza sounds damn good today, but Chinese might beat it out....hmmmmmmmm

[Udink]

Bratwurst, kraut, mozzarella, fries, and 30 ounces of daiquiri. Perfect fare for a Friday evening.

[Black Mage]

Today I made harvest beef stew. It may take four hours to cook, but it's well worth it!

[rockgremlin]

You guys are a riot! :haha: At first I thought this topic was kind of queer, but it's kinda growin on me!

That stew looks killer, and I like Udink's before n' after pics. :lol8:

[Sombeech]

My wife cooks some damn fine meals, but once it hits my plate, it's on a fork and in my mouth.

I've got to remember to capture one of these meals on film next time.

Maybe you'll see one with a few bites missing. That's when I remembered to get the camera. :popcorn:

Too gourmet? Is there such a thing? Real men can cook.

As for those "Hungary Man" meals? *bleck* I've never even considered touching one of those things thanks to this article (http://www.x-entertainment.com/articles/0744/).

[Black Mage]

Went up to Peach Days in Brigham City, today. On our way back we not only grabbed a half-bushel of peaches (can you say "cobbler"?) but we also stopped at Maddox and picked up some fried chicken, the best in the state!

[Sombeech]

That IS good chicken. I love it.

[Black Mage]

What's for breakfast?

Home made pumpkin scones :slobber:

[rockgremlin]

hmmm, you should post the recipe for that. They look yummy! I love your signature btw. :haha:

[Sombeech]

Thanksgiving Day!

Deep fried Turkey! You know what that's all about. It's a family tradition. For those of you who haven't had it, you're missing out. Even the skin is crispalicious.


Just before this, we had a little shootout. Pics and video here (http://uutah.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1183)

[rockgremlin]

looks yummy! How long did it take to cook the turkey?

[accadacca]

Yeah, who knew? The old man can cook! :lol8: How many times did you hear "you need to cut that hair Justin!". :haha:

I have some honey baked ham that I brought home with some rolls. I better go get some while I watch the James Bond Marathon. What a great holiday. Christmas lights go up in the morning. :2thumbs:

[Sombeech]

I'm not quite sure. I think maybe 45 minutes? I don't know much about it yet, but I believe the temp has to be over 180 F.

[Sombeech]

What happened to this post?

I got the ol' Grille out tonight.

[Mtnman1830]

I rustled up some Brocolli Cheddar Cheese soup for dinner- made from scratch of course but I bought the sweet pepper and rosemary breadsticks.

[accadacca]

Time to get this goin' again. Here is my before and after "Bear Lake Ribs". :eat:

[Shan]

Yum! I made some awesome pulled pork bbq sandwiches in the crockpot. So easy.

[savanna3313]

That sounds yummy. Do you use a cola in the recipe? I'd rather do something like that for a holiday meal during the summer with a bunch coming over rather than swelter over a bbq grill. How about sharing the recipe?

[Iceaxe]

How about sharing the recipe?

:2thumbs:

[Shan]

I used boneless pork ribs, also known as country style ribs.

I put about 3 pounds in a crockpot with a 14 oz. can of low sodium beef broth on LOW.

Cook about 6-8 hours, you remove the pork and shred it with two forks, even two spoons would work it's so tender! Pour the liquid into another bowl.

Then return the meat (minus and fat if you want) to the pot add a bottle of BBQ sauce (or make your own), then a little of the cooking liquid if it's dry, cook for another hour or less!

I like mine with mayo and relish on a bun, yup!

I think that would feed 8 people well. I fed 4 people and had a cool whip container full of leftovers. We used big buns too.

[DaveOU812]

Ok so here is what we had for dinner last night. Homemade pizza and I had an artichoke. We made half and half cause the wife doesn't like vegitables. She had sausage and I had vegitarian. Tomatos, onions, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, and green peppers. All put on home made dough with red and white sauce. I steamed the artichoke and had it as an appitizer with mayo. Delicious.

[accadacca]

Very nice! :eat:

Make sure you check out that playboy out on yer table. :lol8:
Whats everyone else got?!?! Bring it... :popcorn:

[Sombeech]

McFarland Sweet Corn! Yeah baby, it's the season!

Sold at Sacco's in Roy, Kent's Market, and several other produce markets in Weber County.

Oh yeah, cooked on the newly converted grill, running on Natural Gas. :cool2:

[chickenlicken]

We spent some time catching some crawdads last week here are the before and after shots. My wife and kids wouldn't each them, but my brothers and parents dug in. We had 200+ dads, I thought we wouldn't finish them, but after an hour, all that was left was some new pototoes. Zatarains crab boil, sweet onions, quartered lemon, and new pototoes. These little buggers were terrrific, but a real work out getting a bite of flesh. Sorry I'm not into sucking the "head juices" like an authentic cajun.

[accadacca]

Where did you catch the dads? I took my three year old up to Strawberry for a few hours on Saturday. We didn't have any luck with the dads, but he managed to hook an 18" cut. Hey thanks for bringin' this thread back up. I love to see what people are cookin'. My wife and I love watching the food network and trying new things. :eat:

[chickenlicken]

We tried by ladders, but only caught a couple there. Then we drove to soldier creek marina. There were tons there and it only took a few minutes for the dads to cover the chiken legs. A net proved very helpful in catching a higher pecentage. I had 2 traps that were basically useless compared to the bare chiken leg on a string. The kids had a great time catching them but wouldn't touch them after they were cooked.

[Sombeech]

:slobber: Those crawdads look delicious.

[Iceaxe]

CRAWDADS.... :slobber:

Dang! I haven't seen that many crawfish since I left Luzianna! Looks really yummy to say the least. And I am a born and raised La girl, but sucking the heads grosses me out as well. :eek2: Guess I'm not pure Cajun. :haha: Where did you find these critters?

[Alex]

Well I am sold, I am taking my RV up to Strawberry this weekend. What's a good place to camp with a pop up tent up there? I do want to do a lot of crawfishing...?

[donny h]

Crawdads, the other, other white meat.

They are tasty, and they are a lot of work. Worth it.

There are some nice spots at Strawberry bay. They all have covered tables at each spot. Kinda the crowded area of the lake but has some nice conveniences.

[accadacca]

Those are BIG'UNS!!! :eat: :drink:

[chickenlicken]

We caught these at the marina at soldier creek on the rocks. You need to find a rocky area. We tried at ladders and caught a few, but those tasted different (not good) maybe because it was a sandy/muddy area with lots of weeds. We caught a bunch at the gorge last year, but not nearly as many. There were small areas in about 4-5 ft of water that weren't in deep cracks that really produced. Sometimes we left the leg for 10 min and the leg would be completely covered with them, 6-8 dads fighting over a spot. Don't forget a net, it really makes the difference. sometine we caught 5 dads in one scoop.

Ok, so tonight the wife had to work tonight so dinner tonight was pretty much up to me. I decided to head on back to my bachelor days and made what I'm calling "The Ultimate Bachelor Burger!!" I'm probobly not the first person to think of this but it's the first time I've tried it. I took 1/2 a pound of hamburger and smashed it flat. I then took some diced onions, green peppers, and cheese and put it on top. I folded the meat over so all the stuff was inside the burger. Threw it on the grill, more cheese on top, onto the bun with mayo, mustard, lettuce, and dug in. It probobly would have been good with jalapenos but I had to work with what I had. I'm proud to say I was a big boy and finished the whole thing. The only down side, I cut my finger open dicing the green peppers. Man those Ginsu knives are sharp. :haha:

:slobber: now THAT is some goodlookin vittles!

[greyhair biker]

this usually happens on my days off...I am sick of boxed lunches I have survived on all week and it's time to COOK! This is what I had for lunch today: zucchini served over vermicelli...sounds simple right?
1 small zucchini 6 to 8 inches to avoid unwanted seeds and softness cut into strips. pour olive oil and a tsp of butter for flavor in a pan and sautee a clove of fresh garlic. add zucchini and season with oregano, thyme, basil, and any number of flavors you drool over, salt and pepper...cook til it all starts to just soften and pour mixture over vermicelli - I seasoned the vermicelli about the same. I forgot the mushrooms until I was eating but that'd be good with portabellas - sprinkle the whole thing with parmesan cheese.
..you can add about a 1/3c of cream to this and a dash of cayenne for a change but I LOVE it the way it is.

HAHA yeah. It is just some thousand Island, cheese, and smashed crackers. I don't like my salads to be healthy.
The aussie chicken is a chicken breast with bacon and mozarella on top of it with a honey mustard sauce on top. Its delicious. My wife makes it so I don't really know the recipe, if interested I could get it.

Sorry it took so long to answer I missed your post.

No sweets, but here is my little veggie dish and this was the first time I tried a mixture of Wheat Germ and Corn Meal as a "breading" then broiled.

The veggie casserole: Layer of tomato, then egg plant, zucchini, summer squash and then repeat until the Pyrex can't take anymore layers :haha: Cover with foil and bake to taste, firmness of veggies. If the Pyrex starts to show the veggies browning the glass, they're done. Easy clean up. Nothing burnt to the dish, nothing stuck on it :lol8:

Wheat germ is SUCH a fabulous source of vitamin E........another thing you can add to a fruit smoothie would be some Brewers Yeast. One TBSP of that gives you tons of amino acids as well as all your vitamin B's.......good stuff!! Your veggies look yummy!! Try roasting some sweet potatoes, parsnips, carrots and onion in light olive oil with fresh rosemary and garlic. YUMMY!! And oh so good for you. Keep it up JP. :2thumbs:

Did someone say "Sweet Potato"...MMMMMMMM... Thanks :2thumbs:

The wheat germ/corn meal coating did keep some of the juices in while cooking. Little on the bland side of things, but stopped the chicken from burning and held onto some of the juices.

Alison's Summer Salad Packed full of antioxidants:

Bag of Spring Mix
Gorgonzola cheese
Orange slices, cut up into chunks
Blackberries (or any berries work)
Tomato
Honey glazed walnuts

Dressing:
Raspberry vinager
honey
light olive oil
spash of OJ/orange zest


Honey glazed walnuts: Place walnuts on foil, toss in little bit of olive oil and lots of honey. Place in oven or toaster oven and roast them, but don't burn them. They cook QUICK! Immediately remove them from the foil so they don't stick, throw them in a bowl, let them cool.

Dressing:
Mix Rasp vinegar, honey, Olive oil and OJ with a little zest to taste. It should be a light sweet dressing.

Toss everything together, once the walnuts have cooled and YUMMY!! Packed full of antioxidants, vitamin C and good fats (walnuts) and trace minerals (honey).


It's a great salad to have along side of a grilled peice of MEAT. Or K-bobs of some sort. Very filling.

[Mooseman70]

So I get home from work this afternoon and upon opening my front door, my olfactory senses are awakened by the scent of taco meat simmering.
Mmmmmm. Just now how I'm used to taco meat simmering.

My wife had the ol' crock pot slow cooking away on the counter, so I went over and took a peek. It smelled sooooooo delicious that I almost dished up a bowl of the yummy looking concoction inside.

She decided to try out a new recipe, "Crock Pot Chicken Tacos", served atop piping hot Navajo fry bread.

We grated some Mexican blend cheese, whipped up some fresh guacamole, broke out the sour cream, and chopped up some crisp Romaine lettuce to top it off. :slobber: Oh, man. This was a treat.

Check out the photo....This was actually the second one I pounded for dinner. We used the leftover frybread dough to cook up a tasty dessert.

If anyone wants the recipe, lemme know. This one WILL be back on my plate SOON! :2thumbs:

[Jaxx]

Fathers day dinner I decided to smoke some salmon. My wife also got some crab legs so I thought why not smoke them too. Well I am a noob at smoking and I think I went a little overboard on the woodchips, too much smokiness. The crap legs were actually pretty juicy but I prefer it without the smoke flavor. We also had stuffed crab, popcorn shrimp, and red lobster knock-off cheesy garlic rolls. The rolls were better than at Red Lobster!
The salmon is all ripped up because I already went through it looking for bones.

OK, Jaxx and fellow Bogleyites............ Here's how to make those awesome "Crock Pot Chicken Tacos"!

Ingredients:
2-3 chicken breasts (or you can use 7 or so chicken breast tenders)
1 can chicken broth
1 pkg taco seasoning
1 cup salsa
1 can corn, drained
1 can black beans, drained

Place the above ingredients in the crock pot on high for 3-4 hours on HIGH. Just before serving shred chicken and add:

1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup shredded cheese

Serve over piping hot Navajo fry bread, recipe below! Top with: Grated cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, salsa, avocados/guacamole, or anything else that sounds good.

This stuff is runny, and can be eaten like a soup, so you could try that too.

Spaghetti (well, actually Angel Hair pasta) with homemade sauce and meatballs

Whenever I have company in town, I always have to make this for everyone.

Here's my dinner from last night. I was camping in Buckhorn Wash, and I just threw it on the coals from the campfire. I cooked a large potato in the microwave at home until it was mostly done, then diced it up, added bell peppers and onions and seasoning, and wrapped it in foil. For the fish, I took a frozen fillet and added butter, seasonings, and some lemon juice. And, as you can see, I'm quite the connoisseur when it comes to beer. :haha:

If your in Salt Lake I would try Liberty Heights on 1100 East and 1300 South? My wife likes to stop there when we are down that way for hard to find stuff. A little pricey.

I figured I'd share my family's secret recipe for delicious slightly salted pickles ;-)
What you need is small or medium fresh cucumbers. I got them at the farmers market this morning. Make sure they're firm. I paid $10 for this whole box, heh. Oh yeah! I found sorrel too so my sorrel soup recipe is coming up!

Additional ingredients include garlic, horseradish root (optional because it's freaking impossible to get here), lots of dill herb (can be fresh but dried dill is best), salt (preferably good sea salt or coarse kosher salt, the less refined the better).

Look at the pics and comments for how to make delicious pickles! Enjoy!

Additional ingredients include garlic, horseradish root (optional because it's freaking impossible to get here), lots of dill herb (can be fresh but dried dill is best), salt (preferably good sea salt or coarse kosher salt, the less refined the better).

Look at the pics and comments for how to make delicious pickles! Enjoy!

Thanks, Kapitan! I've been looking for a good pickle recipe. :2thumbs:

Glad someone is interested, heh. Do try to get that horseradish root in there.

From the other night.... before baby's arrival:

BBQ'd Teriyaki chicken thighs :slobber: White rice, fresh green beans from our garden, mixed w/ baby carrots, garlic toast, and fresh lemonade.

The beauty of living on green acres; tonight I am having tomato, cherry tomato and bell pepper salad, and Abby is having cucumbers, none of which has even been in the fridge. I must have picked five pounds tonight, so we'll be taking some to our respective offices.

The meal that made sauerkraut famous (or at least eatable): Polish hunter's stew, served with potatoes and home made pickles :2thumbs:

[KapitanSparrow]

Sorry for double post, heh.

If you gotta stay home on a Friday night, this is way to enjoy dinner:

With that spread.... I want to stay home on a Friday night. Looks fabulous Felicia!

[shlingdawg]

I know this is a what's for dinner thread, but I think we need some breakfast dishes.

In the spirit of the Northwest:

A smoked salmon and cheese omlette.

[KapitanSparrow]

Now that's what I call a bread! Got this beauty during my trip to New York last weekend.

[blueeyes]

so i have to brag....

my son is taking CTE class at school and he is learning to cook so this afternoon he made us a veggie stir fry....so yummuy... it had fresh carrots, cauliflower, broccoli and top ramen. that was it.

i would have taken a pic, but we ate it ALL!!

[greyhair biker]

We are feasting on homemade scones all day today. For dinner...scones with fresh tomatoes from the garden, bacon, lettuce...peppers, onions.... :nod:

[Mtnman1830]

My son said he wanted ribs for dinner.

I cook 'em straight up - just salt and pepper. If I had a grill, I would use it, but the oven has to do.

Best of all, its a way to get him to eat meat!

[abirken]

Chicken noodle soup from scratch, a green salad and a baguette with butter. For dessert, pumpkin spice cookies with a cream cheese frosting from scratch. Yea I'm celebrating getting back to the gym tomorrow.........after 6 weeks. HAHA!! :haha:

[abirken]

Last weekend I received my new Le Creuset crocks from my mom as a belated birthday gift. I'm such a kitchen appliance/gadget HO. HAHA!!! I found a fabulous recipe for French Onion soup on foodnetwork.com. It was the perfect dinner for a blustery evening. I also made a caesar salad with dressing from scratch. BON APPETIT and meat free!!

[accadacca]

Looks good abirken. It looks restaurant quality. :five:

I finally added a post to my food blog after a few months. Slacker! I got a good photo from a Thai place. Yum: http://thegoodfoodblog.com/

I made some fried Ice Cream the other night. Not bad: http://thegoodfoodblog.com/deep-fried-ice-cream/

She who has the most kitchen gadgets wins!!

I love kitchen gadgets, my favorite is the big hopper garlic press from Pampered Chef and my Stones!!! Oh and the Kitchen Aid, and the food chopper and ......

Looks good Alison, we are coming for dinner.

[Alex]

Speaking of gadgets. My wife just broke our most favorite spaghetti scooper and I can't find another one for the life of me. Maybe one of you guys would know.

It's a scooper that has a couple of scooping teeth on the end, but also within the plastic handle it has 3 holes for measuring how much spaghetti to put in. One hole = 1 person, middle hole = 2 people, large hold = 3 people. We used that religiously and it was always perfect portions of spaghetti.

It's a pretty flat utensil about a foot in length, has anyone seen it/knows where to buy one?

Thanks :)

[blueeyes]

Any good kitchen store should have one. Wiliam Sonoma is in Trolley Square, or IKEA I bet would have something. Have you looked at Target or Wal-mart, even they should have something like that.

Spoons N Spice has just about everything. It's located in Sandy at the Sandy Mall (9400 S and 700 East). I think there is also one around Sugarhouse somewhere - or at least there was at one time.

[Alex]

Thanks, I will check both places. Target and Walmart didn't have any.

My two favorite kitchen gadgets:

Headlamp because the overhead light isn't always enough when knifing and the goggles allow massive onion sessions w/o the horrible weeping and wiping. Still gets the nose, though. In the photo, I'm preparing a big onion chop to make one of my favorite new recipes: Indian-spiced turnips!

Only a bloke, eh? :haha:

[Scott Card]

:roflol: :roflol: Remind me to do the cooking at Freezefest. (You want to borrow a light bulb?)

BTW, I have started to look at this thread since I have recently become somewhat of a fan of "Iron Chef America" Crazy stuff they make in an hour. Now if they would get rid of the serious Ninja man. I've always liked to cook. Now if I just had the time.

[greyhair biker]

We seriously are addicted to the Food Network in my house :haha:
...and the french onion soup is to DIE for!
I like to go into SurLeTab in the mall - Galyan Center? I just know where to go to get to it. It's by far the most pricey store on the planet but it's got the goods for the kitchen.

[abirken]

Which French Onion soup have you made GHB? I used one of Rachel Rays, it's a less time consuming recipe than others. It is simply YUMMMYYYY to our tummies. Love love love Foodnetwork.com!!! I just had hubby re-install my hanging pot rack so I could create more room in my one butt kitchen. I now have all the pots and pans UP on the ceiling and I now have a whole new cupboard for MORE gadgets. :2thumbs:

Tomorrow I am doing a mini-thanksgiving dinner for my boys since this will be the first Thanksgiving I spend away from them. Pics will follow tomorrow evening. :nod:

Thanks Savana! I found my tool on Amazon. You led me to go on Spoons N Spice website which led me in search on Amazon and sure enough I found what I was looking for!

I'd have to check the website out for the actual 'recipe' but it's one of Alton Brown's. I watched Iron Chef America last night - secret ingredient 'Squash'. I generally get the 'recipe' and put my own twist on it a bit. One of my favs is Alton Browns' "40 cloves of garlic and chicken" ...and most anything Giada cooks. Rachel Ray is good but she bugs me to watch her...don't know what it is :ne_nau:
Our gadgets are mostly PamperedChef and Cuisinart...and a mess of cast iron cookware and Pyrex. Gotta have Gadgets! :five:

[blueeyes]

I sold PC for 3 years. I LOVE that stuff!!!

Alison "one butt kitchen" :lol8: that is what I call mine too!!

I will have to say I am not much of a cook, I like to cook occasionally, but I am more exotic then domestic. I just really like gadgets period.

[accadacca]

Giada :naughty:

[abirken]

And this is just the beginning!!!! I still have 5 more recipes to make this week and next weekend. :2thumbs: I started yesterday with from scratch Gingerbread cutout cookies and Butter spritzers because my kids can help me decorate them. We had a great time! I did a homemade butter cream frosting and edible glitters for fun. I still have Peanut butter balls, Russian tea cakes, Haystacks, Andes mint bars, and Pumpkin spice cookies to make............ :lol8: :nod:

[accadacca]

Ohhhhh my hell. Very nice. I gotta get going on that stuff. Pictures coming...

[savanna3313]

Thanks Alison......now I'm gonna have to make some pralines!!!! :nono:

:haha:

[Don]

I think I over did it. I tend to have that more is better mentality with food. I tried my hand a Boboli crust pizza tonight. Used my own vodka & cream pasta sauce, fresh mozzarella, dry salami, sliced tomato, Crimini Italian brown mushrooms, orange bell pepper, red onion, smoked oysters (from a can) and diced Habanero and feta crumbles sprinkled on top.
Damned good, but I think I could drop a few ingredients and still have a damn good pie.
Served with a nice stout Guinness.

[abirken]

Don! That looks so darn good. :haha: I'm saying this after pigging out on pizza tonight as well. Mine didn't look as good as yours though. :lol8:

[Don]

Thanks. I have enough cheese and stuff left over I think I'm going to make another one tomorrow or Tuesday. My son wouldn't touch it (the peppers are a big turn off for him right now) so the leftover slices made a great lunch for me today!

[Cirrus2000]

Yeah, I looked at that when you posted it, and started drooling. And there's nothing better than leftover pizza! I wouldn't call it overdoing it at all. Never had smoked oysters on a pizza, myself, though I do love 'em. My wife would kill me if I tried it, though.

I've been cooking a lot of Indian food, in big batches to freeze individual portions for work. Not very photogenic, though. Today's batch of palak paneer (spinach and cheese) looked like a pot of baby poop with white squares floating around in it...

[blueeyes]

Now that sounds mmmm well not appetizing Cirrus! Maybe you should try making Don's pizza.

[Don]

I've had Indian food eating out, but I've never tried any Indian recipes can you post any recommendations? Or links?

[Don]

Round two. My son has a cold so while he's eating chicken noodle soup I'm free to pile on the peppers mushrooms and onions.
It's pretty much the same as the last one but with olives and spinach. It'll be nice for lunch tomorrow! :haha:

[KapitanSparrow]

Damn you Don with your all imaginable toppings pizzas! :frustrated:

Fcuk this! I'm gonna make pizza sometime this week :haha:

Now that's the BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :2thumbs: I'd slather it in extra marinara sauce too. :five:

[Don]

Damn you Habanero!!

I washed my hands multiple times since dicing that pepper and again, just before, but taking out my contacts tonight burns like pepper spray!

[Cirrus2000]

Wow, fine lookin 'za again, Don!

I kind of mix and match ideas from different online recipe places. I google, say, palak paneer, or paneer makhani, or chicken makhani. Read 2 or 3, and have at it. The places I usually use are indianchild.com (http://www.indianchild.com/Recipes/indian_recipes_index.htm), recipedelights.com (http://www.recipedelights.com/indianrecipes.htm) and indianfoodforever.com (http://www.indianfoodforever.com/).



Damn you Habanero!!

Be glad you didn't decide to have a "session"... :haha:

blueeyes, it didn't look too good, but mm-mmm, very tasty!

My favourite home-made pizza is caramelized onion and chevre, with some mozzarella and pine nuts. To.Die.For.

[KapitanSparrow]

Here it is! :haha:
