What is your favorite meal and how do you make it? EVERYONE CHIME IN!!!!

jangel

Hey folks. We have a wide diversity of people here from all over the world. I am always curious as to what everyone is having for dinner!!!

We share so much here and a little thing like sharing a meal is hard to do over the internet! So let's share our favorite meals with each other! Then every time we eat the recipe our friends have shared with us, we will be thinking of them! Food feeds the soul and the body. It is not to be replaced with anything and such a sensual experiance when done right! So if you have a favorite meal, toss it on all of our plates by sharing!

I know this does not necessarily have much to do with mj, but it has a lot to do with who we are and how we feel about life, and how we feel about our friends.

Peace and good eating to all!

Okay, I will start.

This has become one of my man and I's favorite meals.

2 pork tenderloin

2 tbls. olive oil

Garlic to taste (I buy it already in the jar, minced and in oil)2 to 3 tbls.

Fresh or dried rosemary 2 to 3 generous tbls or to taste. (less if dried)


Rub the garlic and rosemary into the pork loins and let it sit for a bit. Heat a frying pan, I use cast iron for this, you want it fairly hot but not scorched. Then add the olive oil and the pork loins. Brown all sides of the meat, till they look golden but not done through. This is just to get that golden colour. Then finish in the oven. (1/2 hr or so at 350) You do not want to do this too long, you want them tender and just done barely on the inside as this makes it very tender. It will continue to cook for a short time once you pull it out and let it rest. Once the meat has had a chance to rest for a bit,(10 min or so, in a warm place) cut it into medalions. I cut them on an angle to make it look pretty. Garnish with a bit of rosemary or whatever you like. As salt is a no no for my man, I do not use it for this. You can if you wish, but add it at the end as salt tends to pull moisture from meat and will make it lose it's juices and it will be tougher.

I serve this with boiled new taters(with the center pealed off to make them pretty) or rice (basmati rice has a wonderful flavour with this) . And a lovely salad of oak leaf lettuce, red lettuce, or whatever floats your boat. I add almonds to the salad and a raspberry dressing with tomatoes generously added. A handful of sunflower seeds adds more crunch .

This can easlily feed 4, with left overs!

So tell us what you like for dinner!

Peace!!!

One of my favorites has got to be homemade Mac n' Cheese! i will have to get the recipe for it, it really is amazing.

here's what i can remember from it...bear with me. it's my G-Mom's recipe.

1-2 bags of your preferred noodle....i go with the bowtie heh
1 can of "cream of mushroom" soup (OMG, gives it such a nice taste!)
2 cases of Velvitta block cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese, anything will work)
1 crock pot
1 stove top pot

First go ahead and boil up your noodles
While those babies are bubbling away line your crock pot with a liner(most come with them or you can buy refills or you can just use plastic wrap)
Throw your cheese into the crock pot while the noodles are boiling..let it melt up nice and good but DO NOT burn it...you may have to stir occationally.
Noodles should be just about done, strain them out and pour in your cheese from crock pot.
Open can of cream of mushroom and pour into the mix. Fill can half way with water and add as well. Stir pot til desired mixture.
Next you wanna get out a 8" by 11" by 4" (i think?) aluminum foil container that you can pour everything into.
Pre heat oven to 350 degrees
Once you have everything in bake for twenty - thirty min or until top is a golden brown.
For you cheese heads out there you can add additional cheese on top of mix before you bake.

ENJOY

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!! Sounds tasty! Lots of cheese heads here! It is a good thing! Aren't gramma's great? I don't want to get into my grammas recipes or I will be here for days! She was a farmers wife and Romanian so everything was from scratch. Home made bread, cabbage rolls made with home made saurekraut, chicken caught and killed then cooked. None pasturized milk, seperated and then just drank warm. Nothin' like it now!!!

peace

p.s. so NICE eating with you all!

HERE WE GO,
I have worked in the kitchens of Johnson and Whales University,and some of the finer resorts along the east coast,along with many of the hole in the wall restaurants.I have won a cooking contests with entries such as Red Snapper sauteed in garlic butter and garnished with onion and green pepper rings, and Bar-B-Q Ribs(I make my own sauce and steam the ribs in BEER,before saucing up and grilling)
Tonight we are having my SEMI-HOMEMADE Chicken Cacciatore
I start by dicing up 2 boneless chicken breasts
I put diced chix into 8qt pot preheated with EVOO(olive oil)& saute until done
I add a bag of frozen three pepper blend[red,yellow,green with onion](or use fresh bell peppers & onion)and saute until tender
I add 1 small can of tomato Paste with Italian seasoning
I start off with a jar of my favorite Spaghetti sauce(or CAN)
I add 1 can 14.5oz diced tomatoes with Italian seasoning(various choices)
I add a PINCH of ground RED PEPPER (for kick) and Italian grinder spices
Let this simmer for a couple hours,(and It's like AMBROSIA)
Serve over your favorite pasta and ENJOY

Peace

That's the truth about pasta sauce,soup,chilli etc; it's always better the next day.
The wife and I have developed a hell of a good CHILLI,we use beef and sausage,And whostershirer sauce.The staff in her restaurant want her to enter it in the county cook off,but you have to be ready to serve 300+ people and the judges,And set up a serving table.(I would need an out door catering kitchen to pull it off)
but that another story...

Peace
