    My friends I used to fish with would make catfish stew to feed an army. Whiskers and all. Didn't love it...

    Many people just serve the greens.  The stalks are the best part.
    I've had lots of good catfish, and caught hundreds of them - never eaten the heads, though.
    (Have with other fish, tho.)

    If you ever spent time south of DC, fried catfish is one the best meals you can have (although with the sides you might go right to sleep).  That chard looks like rhubarb.

    If you eat rhubarb leaves you can get sick so I've heard.

    Cooked up a most of my tomato crop. Threw a few hot peppers & garlic from garden too. Iron skillet some loose hot sausage. Mix it up. Simmer. Lunch/dinner for the week. Looks yum.

    I made beet "risotto" tonight. I put it in quotes because I used long grain rice. It was super satisfying to work the beets in and I loved the color and taste of the final dish. I added some airfried chicken and veggies. Also dehydrated some more homegrown tomatoes.

    I found a recipe for tomato pie, Yay! It has a lot of oil which I will need to remove or replace with stock. I'm very excited 😊

    I'd like to try the beet risotto.  

    Put some of those pumpkins we picked last week to use.  Made 2 pies and a "squares" pan.

    Pretty darn good.

    Nice pie. Never tried to cook pumpkin. Always used canned in the past

    As simple as cooking a squash.   Tasty...I'd not done it before, either.

    Been a minute since I popped in here…

    I opened my mouth over the summer and told the wife I’d start handling the majority of the cooking around here. Been knocking out some tasty things and finally feeling comfortable in the kitchen and loving it!

    anyways, knocked out a chicken cacciatore tonight. Used a recipe I got years ago from an old timer I used to work with. It was his grandmother’s from the “old country.” Turned out great!
