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!

Valerie, I've made a number of your recipes and they've been
very good. Stop that. ;-)

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 for dinner I am chopping deer meat and adding it to hamburger to make
patties...we'll see if the kids notice the difference.

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

Last night I had some leftovers from lunch--a chicken 'folded' pizza
from La Giorgio's, a fairly new Italian restaurant in Raleigh, NC. It
was actually good and interesting! The 'crust' was tasty, as was the
sliced chicken breast, tomatos, onion slices, a couple cheeses, and
some seasonings. The cheese wasn't overwhelming which kept the fat
content down and there was the right amount of seasonings to make it
good.

Crock-pot chicken cacciatore, rice, and asparagus.
It's cheap asparagus time again.

Since I found out after making 22 quarts of bean soup that my guest did not
like beans, I ended up freezing it in dinner size portions. This worked out
perfectly because tonight we are eating bean soup and homemade bread...one
less dinner to cook...yeah!

I ate a peanutbutter sandwich for dinner tonight. Breadmaker rye bread,
organic crunchy Deaf Smith peanut butter from the co-op, and organic blueberry
preserves. I'm still getting used to the idea that I actually *like* jelly
with my peanutbutter sandwiches. It's a recent discovery.

Tonight, we are going "all out" and I am making noodles and "pot cheese".
Second course, salmon salad sandwiches with lettuce and tomatoes. Dairy night
at the Brickers.

I can vouch for the yumminess of freida's spaghetti sauce. It's good.
