On Thu, 10 Nov 2005 16:38:51 -0500, the following was posted in blue dry erase marker: hello i'm new to this group. fresh out of divorce { well if you can call that fresh } any way i have a 7 year old girl hanna and a 6 year old boy josh . trying to make sure we as mom and dad keep our kids lives as normal as possible we have joint phys custody and i'm confident in my parenting abilities the reason for my first post is i need some new idea's for cooking let's face it mom cooked and left me with hamburger's and such . now i need to step up in this area any ideas will be apperciated Welcome! Sounds like you have the right idea WRT the kids. Paul F is really good with recipe ideas. I cook a lot of chicken and turkey, the occasional brisket, corned beef, or roast/stew. It gets boring after awhile. Okay, okay.....one I tried the other night that was quick and good........lightily floured (and sage) chicken breasts sauted in a frying pan, when the chicken is done, you take 1/4-1/2 cup of dry vermouth pour it in the pan and cook into the scraping until about half of it is gone, then add a table spoon or two of lemon juice just before taking it off the heat......that mixture is poured of the chicken...........then if you really have time on your hands you can top it off with the zest from the lemon. :-) And another one..........bow tie pasta.........equal amounts of sun dried tomatoes and green olives.............run both the olives and tomatoes through a food processor (not at the same time :-) ) oh and make sure they are pitted olives ;-) to a fine chop consistency. 1/2 cup heavy cream heated in a sauce pan, then add the tomatoes and olives and a tiny bit of olive oil, cook until the cream starts to turn pink, then add 1/2 cup of the water from the pasta, then mix with the pasta......makes a great side dish. Geez Paul, when are you moving in? Christine Back off he's mine! lol HA! You snooze you lose. Christine |

Learn to cheat... I do... I make 2 huge dinners over the weekend... Like monster roasts or make double batches of things like spaghetti sauce or whatever I want to make and I put it in the freezer for the week... Left overs......you must be kidding.................. Nope no kidding... Sauces do really well in the freezer... Seems to take as long to make the pasta as it does to defrost and heat the sauce LOL Cooking is like sex.....sure your can get it finished in a couple of minutes...............but the fun is in bringing the experience to fruition. ;-) True, but the thing about leftovers, is you can heat it up and eat it again. ~wink~ Christine |

It's good to the last drop... I've even seen a few licking out the pot Which is why I make a double batch and then hide it under the vegetables in the freezer *grin* they NEVER look there... Plus Real sauce takes HOURS to make... I start that pot 8am on a saturday morning so by 7pm we are sitting down to a decent meal... There's always fresh appetizers -- Could use some of your spice rack for that |

That solves it then, I'm renting a Uhaul. We'll be there in 2 weeks, start grocery shopping. well it is a good thing I got the extra bedroom finished.........but I guess I will have to delay the sauna and build the attached garage :-) wouldn't want you to have to park the car outside in the winter :-) Oh that's alright, I have a remote starter, so add a hot tub and we both win. lol The hot tub is on the list....as well as the in ground pool ;-) Christine |
