FOOD! (Pictures & Recipes)

[Caffeinatedkat]

Your food all kinda looks the same.

We don't have a lot of money so we buy pretty much the same stuff weekly unless there is a sale

Does the dough come out of one of those exploding cans? I wish they sold that shit here, it fascinates me for some reason.

You make it sound so exciting.

[hazydaze]

Hahaha I just wanna open it 1 time. We have 0 fun shit where I live, you guys seem to be able to get just about anything premade. I wanna play.

[Fleta]

Those things make me anxious and twitchy. I refuse to open them. I also hate balloons. Shit that can explode with little to no warning makes me crazy.

Making patio beans/calico beans in the crock pot today. Some recipes say to cook longer for better flavor, others say cooking too long makes it mushy. Fuck. I don't know how long to cook them

[Caffeinatedkat]

I generally thrown on the ground and scream while it pops open

[bermstalker]

I'm not much of a cooker, but those can biscuits are disgusting.

Those pillsbury frozen biscuits are much better.

I remember watching my grandma handmade biscuits every single day. She was Cajun. Homemade biscuits, always some rice and beans. Always.

[Caffeinatedkat]

I love doing biscuits by hand but not in the summer. It just gets too hot here. 101 today, boo!!!

[raisedbywolves]

I make a lot of homemade breads and such. I am sincerely interested in what the difference would be between heating up the oven for canned biscuits and heating up the oven for homemade biscuits? The actual mixing/rolling of biscuits takes about 2 minutes, so no big whoop there.

On a side note, if you don't want to heat up the house the best way to make homemade bread is to use a bread machine. Mine produces no noticeable heat. I make all kinds of bread in it. I bought it on a whim 4 years ago and it is amazing. I had never used one before I bought it, but it is amazing!

I will send you all of ours and you can send them back in ziplock bags. I had one open and the metal end hit my knuckle and gave me a nice lil cut hurt so bad.

My gram used to make buns for Easter and I have been craving them so bad. Of course she doesn't remember her recipe and it wasn't written down. Guess I'll just use a random recipe off a site.

We will make Pillsbury rolls occasionally, but I really prefer yeast rolls. Of course. The thing that take hours to fix. I agree about the bread machine. One of the "Inventions of the century"

Crockpot chicken fajitas

I made crockpot santa fe chicken and it was tasty.

4 chicken breasts
1 can corn
1 can black beans
2 cans green diced chilies (the little cans)
2 cups salsa
cook on low for 5 hours, 30 minutes before it's ready plop in a package of cream cheese and then stir it in once it melts a little.

I've made a few variations of this (adding mushrooms or hominy instead of beans) and using jalapeno cream cheese. All pretty nom.

Berm how many servings did this make? I'm thinking I should double it for Family Funday Sunday

[UncomfortablyNumb]

It feed 5 of us, but there was none left over.

[bermstalker]

I'm not taking no pictures.

I got my turkey and a turkey breast resting in brine. Basically, it's a lot of salt, peppercorns, and tons of herbs. The house smelled divine when it was simmering. The turkey's will be DEEP fried.

I made my two pan of cornbread up today. It's for the southern cornbread dressing. Yumm. I don't do bread slices or crackers. All cornbread for me. Tomorrow the chicken will get cooked, along with all the celery and onions. I'll make everything and put it up until everybody gets back from Louisiana. Sweet potatoes and green bean casserole won't get done until that actual day.

I have a apple crumble pie and a lemon meringue pie.

My husband always makes the gravy. My deviled eggs are almost made up. The eggs are boiled anyway....the filling will have to wait until that day.

[nclexusgirl]

Ahhhhh. Yum!
