Portabellas and peach?  What an interesting fusion.

was at a small gathering saturday & there was food. but there was only one that slapped me silly. i don't know much about it yet but the lady in my life just got the recipe from her friend. i guess ya boil a couple chicken breasts, put the chicken through a grinder of sorts, add cream cheese, sour cream, whatever else & spices. put that in a crock pot. get yourself a sack of scoopin corn chips... get the hell out of here so good

anyone?

Little fish taco action tonight. Cod with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, chili powder, paprika, cayenne and some crushed red pepper. 

Little cabbage, tomato and picketed jalapeño on them.

they are pretty good. A weekday staple here.

Did a little experiment tonight; made a "breakfast" burger for dinner.  1/3 lb patty made up 2 parts 85/15 beef to 1 part pork sausage, bacon, cheese, & over easy egg on a toasted kaiser roll with a dab of mayo on the heel & butter on the crown.  Grated a potato and made hash browns for a side. I'm sure my cholesterol is about 300 right now but damn that shit was good!

A fried egg on a burger is always delicious! I think it's a highly underrated burger ingredient.

Stir fry.
Chinese yard long beans, yellow squash, Carmen and Thai peppers, green cabbage and onion.  All from the garden of course.
Sauce is brown sugar and soy sauce with fish sauce, garlic, chili paste, salt and ginger.  A typical Asian style sauce, sweet and hot and savory.
Yum.

Too bad I can't grow rice lol

Leftover turkey stew. Better on day 2.

rgambs

Half a dozen eggs lightly scrambled as well.  With the temperature very moderate here the girls are laying at peak capacity, an egg per day each for 6 days in a row now.

Is it Portugal that does the egg on everything?  Some culture does it.

made a pot of chili today. one can of black beans, one can of kidney beans, two cans of chili pinto beans & one can of chili starter bean mix. i like bush's beans. one day i'll use dry beans & soak them... until then, i like bush's. a good pound of 80/20 burger, one garden grown tomato given to us, about a 1/3 of a onion & a good splashing of el yucateco black habanero sauce. it's not hot chili, just quite tasty. add your frank's redhot sauce, whatever cheese is favored & or a nice dallop of sour cream if so inclined.

we're doing well this night

This sounds good but definitely give dry beans A try sometime. They are great. Not a bad little recipe you got going there though

i've soaked beans before when i was younger, like when mom was showing me how to cook. they do have a different taste & texture for sure. they seem to have a cleaner taste... less sodium & such. i'll give it a go here soon. now i'm excited about soaking beans

Chili?

Is it November where you live Chad?

cooking is quite enjoyable most of the time except when feeling like dog crap, then cooking sucks. i've so many things i wanna cook. i'll give a quick (off the top of my head) list:

i wanna bake:

bread

pies

cakes

cinnamon & pecan rolls

cookies

edit - & biscuits  

bbq & or smoked to perfection:

beef brisket

one whole pig

& several other meaty things but (currently) i don't remember what they're called

i think i'd like to deep fry a turkey

the old man (rip) made a perfect pot of oyster stew every year for christmas. no matter what i do, it is not the same & it bums me out

it's pretty much november all year over here. yep 12 months of november.

almost added a few scoops of peanut butter to the pot but didn't as i was thinking of others & their tastes

anyone ever make up a crock pot of lil smokies & add an entire jar of grape jelly to it? a friend back home does this & it is quite good

^ I've tried it with equal parts grape jelly and plain yellow mustard. It was years ago, but I remember it being tasty.

This is the first time I've tried the yardlong beans, I'm sold 100%.
They take time growing long first before filling, so you have a bigger picking window which is the issue I run into with bush and pole beans.
