What did you have, or will you have for supper tonight???
Sometimes, I just never know what sounds good
But also, if I see a suggestion and it sounds
good, it'll hit my fancy!!!!

Any ideas???

Well, tonight we had Pizza and Chicken Wings.....

How 'bout you???

Weezie

Has anyone had chicken wings???
I have a sauce recipe if you'd like one?

Chicken Wing or Chicken Finger Sauce.

(None of my recipes are an exact recipe....
I've eyeballed them all my life, so forgive me.
I'll give you a general idea and you can experiment. Some may like it HOT <I DO> and
some like it not so hot, so, it's all up to your taste???)

Basically you need two ingredients for the basic sauce.

SAUCE:
Frank's Red Hot Sauce
Butter

CHICKEN WINGS OR CHICKEN FINGERS
And BLUE CHEESE
CELERY AND CARROTS STICKS on the side.

(After that, It depends on how much you
want to make and it's up to your tastes.)

Usually a good rule of thumb is half and half. That'll get you a nice tasting sauce.
Go from there for your temperature.........
I put some worchestershire sauce
fine black pepper, white pepper,
garlic powder, cayenne pepper, tabasco sauce.

A. Sprinkle on top of chicken fingers or serve plain for fingers with sauce on the side.
B. Put in a big bucket or something to shake wings up in it and put as much or as little
as you want on...


If you have any questions, I can try to answer them.

i made chilli last night with the last of my tomatoes, green and red peppers, chilli peppers, basil oregano, marjaram and thyme all from my garden. and if i must say it was wonderful.

Being that it's Sunday, today is PASTA DAY!!!!!!!!! Pasta with sauce, pasta with oil and garlic, pasta carbonara, pasta with peas, pasta Bolognese, etc.---

Tonights menu is meatloaf, roasted potatoes, broccoli with cheese, and biscuits.......It's making my hungry just thinking about it....

How 'bout Mom54,

Got a recipe???
Weezie

Loz,
How do you do your roasted potatoes?
Weezie

Weezie, here is the Carbonara recipe:
1 lb. good quality spaghetti
3 egg yolks plus 1 whole egg
1/2 cup grated parmeson cheese
6-8 slices bacon or pancetta, chopped
4 Tbl. Olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
In your serving bowl, mix the eggs, cheese & a little salt & pepper.Cook the pasta. While the pasta is cooking, fry the bacon & 1 Tbl olive oil. Drain the pasta, reserving a little of the water in case you need to thin out your mixture. Immediately pour the pasta into the serving bowl, stirring until well mixed with the egg mixture.Add the bacon & the rest of the oil, blending well. Serve with additional cheese and salt & pepper if needed.
This Must be served right away!!!!!!!!

I had a East Coast (well, my area anyways)
Fish Fry, with freedom fries, coleslaw, and rolls.

Weezie

Had an inspiration tonite, got some small pattipan squash, cut off the tops, scooped out the inside. Minced the insides of the squash, mixed it with minced garlic (my own), onions, added bacon bits, seasoned bread crumbs and some butter. Baked for 1/2hr at 350. Yumm was that good. oh, also had baked chicken.

what is pattipan squash? Just curious....

Those are the cutest looking little squashes!!

I like them in melted butter!!!

But I'll tell you, her recipe
sounds very, very tasty!!!

Weezie
All those recipes sounded so good. :p
Please let me know if anyone tried them.

Ooooooh! Thanks Weezie! Those look like they might be fun to grow too! And you're right, largelady's recipe sounds yummy! I like the idea of the bacon flavor in there! Largelady, do you grow them yourself?

Iowanovice, unfortunately I did not grow these this year but I have in the past. They are very easy to grow just like zuccini. If you pick them when they are smaller than your palm they are very tender with very small seeds.You can use them just like zuccini, too.

We used to have them as little side dishes for
people at the resaurant, They were so cute!!!
The chef would just serve them in drawn butter.
YUM!!!
Weezie

Last night we had............

Polish Kielbosa and Saurkraut.
Beets in vinegar (apple)
cream corn
bread and butter
Apple Sauce

I am still trying to think of what to have tonight.
Probly Taco's for us
and Ghoulash for the boys

Tonight, it's Italian sausage and bell peppers, baked in the oven with tomatoes(canned). There will be enough left over for those yummy hoagie sandwiches tomorrow!!!!!! <img border="0" alt="[clappy]" title="" src="graemlins/clappy.gif" />

Hey Mom,
That sounds different!
What do you do to bake it,
put it in like a casserol dish?
Weezie

My mother used to make a dish for my father
called believe it or not,
"Slum~gullun" not sure exactly how to spell it.?
They said it was some boyscout recipe
they had and made up on camping trips...???....

But it was made two ways
but both had with canned tomatoes.

The first one was with hamburger, cook
and brown it up in a fairly large skillet.
Add the canned tomatoes, one full
can of homemade ones my mother added.
What's the largest size??
A large mouth jar?????
And chop up the tomatoes,
add a bit of pepper, salt if you like it....
It's a very basic meal.

The second one started with bacon
fried crisp in a pan, she liked alot,
so a whole package.
Then take out the bacon, reserve on a plate.
Then do NOT remove the pan drippings,
but just through in the canned tomatoes again, same size jar.
*watch out for hot spatter*
chop up tomatoes, add pepper
After water from tomotoes is rendered down a bit,
and ready to serve, add the bacon just before serving so it's reasonable crunchy still.
Now, if you like a softer bacon, leave it in a bit longer and it'll soften.

Both were served with bread and butter
and a salad.
Not much to it, and I suppose you could
add what ever else you like....to taste.
They were quite different.
I liked the one with the bacon better,
I personally am not a big meat eater........
but my father enjoyed it!!
Weezie

slumgullium..... yum!

You've had it??????????

Yep! When I was a cook on a fishing boat in Alaska, I would torment the crew with it every now and then... served on top of mashed potatoes tho. (I DID cook good stuff too!)
<img border="0" alt="[tongue]" title="" src="graemlins/tongue.gif" />

Weezie, Slice about 3lbs. of bell peppers into about a 9+12in. pan.-----Add 1 lb. Italian sausage,sliced into about 11/2 in. slices.------Add 1 28 or 35 oz. can crushed tomatoes(unflavored).--------To that,add 1 clove minced garlic and about 1/8th to 1/4 teas. Oregano.-------Add about 3 Tbl. Olive Oil.
Bake in a preheated oven at 375% for about an hour or until the peppers are done to your liking.
I have entered more of my recipes in the Recipezaar web site, if you are interested.
They have tons of recipes, everything you can think of. :rolleyes:

Weezie, forgot to tell you to give the mixture a strir once in a while. Sorry
