My wife cooks a gourmet dinner at least 5 nights per week. It's a miracle
I don't weigh in as a heavyweight. Stupendo salads, Lots of Atlantic salmon,
swordfish, etc. Great meat. Unbelievable desserts. Left to my own resources
I end up eating a lot of peanut butter.

um.. last night's dinner was an experiment.
it was an adaptaion of something i saw on pbs, 'the urban peasant'.
it was basically the same, except i used chicken instead of tuna.
it was a miserable failure. we went to burgerking for whoppers.

What are stale oreo cookies? And, how do they get that way?
Last night I made some eggplant sort of thing with peppers, onions, bacon,
lots of garlic, and served on toast.

Hi everybody! This is my first time on grex. I just joined an hour
ago. As a Dinning hall cook for Syracuse University (yes I admit it) I find
I really don't feel like cooking when I get home at night. Lately the dinner
menu at my house has been Doritos and Pepsi (no. thats not a dinning hall
recipe) If my roommate stays home (not usually) I try to get her to cook

Hi Michael! Welcome to Grex!
Hey, if you work as a dining hall cook, does that mean you can confirm lots
of those urban legends about the ingredients in dorm food? For example, the
dorm I lived in was reputed to use the lowest possible grade of meat that was
considered fit for human consumption; the next lower grade was used only for
animal food. Is that true?

There is only one kind of meat used in mass cooking: (That is, dorms,
hospital cafes, government cafes...) MYSSTERY MEAT!
I try to cook...I am a good cook but often too tired to get past
that first hurdle: What do I make today?

Homemade biscuits with homemade applebutter, pork chops slathered with
raspberry/pear butter and grilled, yellow spanish rice, fresh green salad with
that wonderful buttermilk dressing recipe from Valerie, and fresh snapped
green beans. I also included a glass of Zinfandel. It was great!

Maybe I'm projecting my own thoughts onto other people... I'm not sure I've
ever made a recipe I found here. I've gotten some of my favorites from
Usenet, once upon a time, though, so it's not like I don't use on-line
recipes.

Today is Thanksgiving and we ate at a friend's house. She served the lowest
fat Turkey dinner I ever ate and it wasn't bad. Akmost everything you
typically eat, only with reduced fat. The gravy was watery but filled with
chopped fresh mushrooms. The stuffing was also filled with lots of fresh
chopped verggies and almost no fat. Sweet potatoe caserole with cinammon
apples on top. Great fresh salad with rasberry vinegrette dressing.

Tonight, I had tamales from La Gloria Bakery in Detroit. We bought a dozen
a couple of weeks ago and froze them.
