favorite meal and whats cooking?

[a.baker]

What meal is your favorite and what is your favorite thing to have for that meal? Mine is lunch and my favorite thing to cook is a sandwich with sub bread and lots of veggies and cheese and little meat like chunked chicken. And than fruit and lots of it for a side dish. I love all fruit.Chocolate milk or just water for a drink. Anyone have any interesting but yummy recipes?

I love almost all food except cold spinach or cooked cabbage or any raw animal product like fish.

[cbressler1976]

i like cabbage in soups...spinach is ok with vinegar...and I HATE fish!! i HATE seafood!!
i like bread A LOT....I could live on bread and cheese alone...lol

[a.baker]

I love fish as long as it has a sauce to go with it or its battered. But raw fish no thanks. I also have to have my steak medium. Rare is yucky and bloody and too chewy. Oooo I love bread and cheese too but I could live on fruit alone.

I love overdone everything and I hate cucumbers! The hambuger is the greatest food ever invented IMO.

Whats your favorite way to do up your hamburger Kaygee? I remember you tried to start that before in a thread. Mine is an olive burger.

I love potato soup - it's simple to make and tastes really good http://bestsmileys.com/eating1/10.gif

[a.baker]

Oooo potato soup is good especially on a cold day and it fills you up too. My mil makes that and she adds ham cubes to it too.

Potato leek soup is even better. Pertaining to hamburgers, I'm a less is more kinda guy. I detest sloppy foods that wind up on my clothes. My standard order is as follows. Mustard on the bottom bun with a dill slice and/or chopped onions. (Just enough to adhere to the puddle of mustard). then under the top bun a conservative puddle of a good quality steak sauce. Lately Iv'e been adding a dash of Tabasco sauce to the steak sauce puddle.That's all. The patty has to be cooked through. No pink! I prefer small buns to large ones. More meat than bread. Make it like that and you've won my heart!

We only have a propane oven and my wife is too afraid to use it, so baking is sort of out! Last night we did pork tenderloin outside over a wood fire. Not bad. Trouble is I like well done everything. My wife likes cooked less. Fish is good. Wouldn't want it every day. (Some here in Bahamas do) The key is to spice the be-jeebers out of it. I suppose if I had to choose one meat, it would be beef. It's just so good and so versatile. My family at home practically lives on wild game but that is not my thing really. Down here I have been exposed to so many things that I never knew of before. Esp. in fruit. We have these fruits called sugar-apples. They are literally the sweetest fruit on earth. like sucking on sugar juice. Also bread-fruit, coco plums, tamirand, ju-jubes etc...Yesturday a guy taught me how to "bark a coconut". That is to deshell it and find the eye through which you can suck out the juice. The nut meat is good too. Love to have you visit sometime!

I need to become more creative at cooking. My wife comes home pretty exhausted most days and then turns around and cooks supper. It doesn't seem fair. I should be able to handle that duty. She just cooks so well that I would be embarrassed at my paltry offerings. I guess I should get on some of these recipe sites and check out recipes and ingredients. I will cut some wood later for an outdoor wood fire meal. Maybe pork chops. Not sure. Chicken legs is a good winner. Easy too! Marinade them in a nice teriaki sauce or something. Right now, I feel the growls coming on. Time to make breakfast. Have a great day!

You could start a hobby of creative cooking! Kaygee's recipes. Think of foods that sound good together and throw them together and its always good. Like chicken and long grain rice and corn together with some spices and maybe cheese if you would like on top and that would be good. Cook up some bread or biscuits for a side. Its hard for us and I am sure with you guys too because the household is so small that you have leftovers for ever! I hate throwing food away. I always feel guilty when I do. Many times I cook the other two fresh and I will eat leftovers so they don't get waisted. I know its bad but if I have leftovers that are o.k. for animals I give it to them so at least it still gets used up and not put in the trash. Only if I know it won't make animals sick. I also like to have steak bits put into rice too. Do you ever do kabobs? Kabobs
(or skewers) with steak or chicken and some pineapple and maybe some veggies and that would be good too. Grilled pineapple is good! Apricots are good when cooked on top of pork chops.

ymmmm. Thanks for the tips. Sounds delicious!

yea, make KG's bahama recipes...

that would be interesting! I"m sure they do things differently there,
and might be fun too!

KayGee, I'm not sure if you get the "food network" on your television in the Bahamas, but I usually get easy meal ideas from watching "Rachel Ray's 30 minute meals." Simple but delicious dinners she puts together, and it takes only 30 minutes to prepare and cook.

My husband has an extremely sensitive stomach (drs told him gastritis years ago), so I am very limited on what I can cook. So I'm constantly looking to be creative, but without too many spices and stuff.

[kay-gee]

We have no cable or satelite where we are so TV is out but I'm sure I can find Rachel Ray online. Thanks for that tip.

What do you all think of mexican cuisine?
all te best...

[a.baker]

I like it. I like almost all Mexican foods! I eat a lot more than people probably think I do for my size. I could eat 5 or 6 tacos depending on size in one setting. I tend to eat a little all day long for the most part. I could eat a lot more when I was 20 and that wasn't long ago. I love food. I love watermelon. When I buy a big one I will eat close to half of it right away. My favorite mex food is fancy nachos. Pretty basic but I love the combo! Kaygee I am sure you know of star fruit; thats some good stuff. Plouts are good too, like a plum but sweeter and juicier. I would love to try the fruit where you live. Thats my favorite food group next to dairy. Whats everyone prefer frozen yogurt or ice cream? Me, frozen yogurt preferably soft serve.

[kay-gee]

Taco's, Burrito's, quesadillo's, enchilada's, it's all good. Beefy, cheesy, spicy, what more could you want from food? I've never caught the excitement over watermelon. To me it's kinda watery and tasteless. I know it's a big summer time picnic treat! There are all kinds of exotic fruits around here. I wish you could be here when we harvest our pineapples. Juicy and sweet and out of this world. I like mine with good ole vanilla ice cream. No thanks to the yogurt. Too healthy! ha ha
