  • Hah...she's the one who brought up the meth lab and sex shop, which were one and the same...I think.
  • I make quiches quite a bit. I think if you wanted to make one out of this recipe, you'd probably have to lose the mayo and add some flour to the egg mixture. I usually beat the eggs with half & half rather than milk...it sets up better.
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 02-09-05 AT 10:11AM (CST)[/font][br][br]I made a pot of sauce and meatballs on Sunday because I had the time. I think I'm gonna try these instead of regular pasta. Good Stuff!
  • I have a bunch of Pampered Chef stoneware. It also cannot be cleaned with soap. They come with these nifty little scrapers that work great on cast iron.
  • My son emailed me on how to make mom's pinto beans. He said, "I know you use bacon." I wrote back and said, yeah, in a pinch - but the best way to go is ham hocks. He emailed back and said he wasn't sure he could find a ham hock in San Fran. Hmm…
  • The second time around, I used boneless, skinless thigh meat, lowered the temp to 350 the last 15 minutes. Juicy and delicious!
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 09-30-04 AT 04:54PM (CST)[/font][br][br]I also made this when my mom came over. It was great. The only thing was I put in the seasoning packet with the stuffing and I thought it was kind of salty that …
  • I'm with Kiwi - sometimes fresh okra is hard to find. Shoot, a couple days ago the store didn't even have an artichoke! So, is there a substitute?

  • Someone I'm related to still makes the stuff. We have several samplings at home. And we use glasses.

  • just a little - zings them up a bit.
  • This is suspiciously close to how I make it, so maybe I've been Vulcan mind melding with your Nona. Don: Meatballs 2 lbs ground sirloin 2 eggs Italian seasoned breadcrumbs some finely diced onion finely crushed garlic (in a rush you can use po…
  • Somehow a woman was invovled?!?! What the he** is that? How did we go from beans to women destroying the pork industry?

  • I love ham hocks. It's what I like to cook with my pinto beans. Great stuff, that.

  • Two grocery sacks?!?!? They most certainly can ship to Arizona overnight, right?

  • Whirlwind, if you like spinach, you can try that also. Good stuff.=P~
  • Whirlwind, don't you know, that s what those dumpsters behind grocery stores are for?
  • My mom is Croatian, and an old family recipe is dumpling soup. The dumplings are made with eggs, flour, a little bit of baking powder, salt and that's it. You have to get the texture right or you have nothing but a floury mess. Drop them by teasp…

  • My SO loves the stuff while I can barely watch him eat it. Last week he asked me to pick up a can when I was heading to the grocery store. I ask, "Where is it?" He says, "In the canned meat aisle." I say, "Very funny." Go to the store - and the…
  • I had a friend with high cholesteral. She went on Atkins. I told her NO, but she did anyway. Amazing thing, she lost 30 (has put back about half) but lowered her cholesteral to a point where she's off meds. Weird, I thought.

  • Yeah, Sonny, especially a Ball Park Frank x:D!
  • I usually stuff mine - most of the time with wild rice actually. Rub with a little Kitchen Bouquet and pepper. Wrap in tin foil, bake as directed, opening foil to brown last 10 minutes.
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 03-05-04 AT 01:07PM (CST)[/font][br][br]I think Don was looking for a measurement on the Splenda. My guess having made lemon meringue pies before (tho not upside down) is 1/2 Cup. Let me know how it tu…
  • As a matter of fact, I went to an Italian restaurant on Valentine's Day and the appetizer was this made with the balsamic vinegar. It was really good, but I still make it at home my way.
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 03-05-04 AT 10:48AM (CST)[/font][br][br]And I'm originally from Illinois where p-nut butter and Lays was an old family recipe - I can tell you exactly how to do it but then I'd have to kill you! Here's …
  • Potato chips and peanut butter is the best - I even layer on the jelly. I rarely eat peanut butter any more, but if I do the chips (has to be regular Lays) will be in there.
  • Well actually I'm 1/2 Croatian, 1/2 Italian. It makes for an interesting temperment - and very diverse menus.

  • My mother's family is Croatian - they spell it patica. My mother got one for Christmas and told none of her four daughters until it was GONE. This is an old family recipe I hope to snag off my aunt when she comes out to visit in March. We tried i…
