Recipes for scrumptious and reasonably healthy food

First see post #30 (last post prev. page 13)

I also put some white sweet corn in cold water and let it soak up in the cob and in the husks.


Then put it on the top rack and it steams and roasts in the husk and comes out perfect.

Peel the husk rub down with butter and black pepper,chili powder and a dash of salt and the sweet /spicy corn is awesome.

Back to the chicken check it after 45 min. by stabbing it with an ice pick if blood comes out turn it and leave it another 10 min. then check it again.

Fry the onions in a little olive oil and put on top of the chicken.

You can cut up a couple of limes to squeeze over it if you like.

But there you have it a quick and tasty dinner for 2 that looks like you know what the Hell your doing and tastes like it too.

This week end I am going to take my BBQ down stairs and deep clean it,I have used it alot lately.

Simple but goood.
Steak night. (in red wine and garlic butter)
with Garlic bread and zucchini,squash, carrots ect...
And of course an odd micro beer.

[goraman]

Pick up a couple pounds of ground sirloin, fry up some big burger patty's and fry them up, open a couple of cans of Cambell's cream of mushroom with garlic and heat in a sauce pan.

Steam some frozen mixed vegetables and drink a big 24oz. beer.

How come no one else is posting anything here? come on guys, show us your grub!

Nice, but you guys eat way too much beef! Too much red meat ain't good for ya, dudes.... Dontcha eat any chicken, turkey, pork, lamb, rabbit, veal, duck or game?

Marco,
That meal looks good enough for any fine restaurant, I love Italian food maybe I'll cook some before the weeks out.
I love beef my wife loves chicken,we both love lamb but it is so expensive here in the U.S. for some reason like good fish $$$$.

As for pork It has been over a year now since we stopped eating it.
I never understood exactly why after the new testament pork was ok to eat,or exactly why the food restrictions where lifted?
I just took it for granted that it was ok because everyone ate it.
And I loved eating bacon.
After a long debate with a devout Muslim I realized that the food restrictions where lifted due to a vision/dream from Paul.
There was always clean and unclean animals for sacrifice and that was no longer necessary after the crucifixion.
So until I figure it all out pork is at least on hold for now,my wife still eats pizza with pepperoni though she never ate pork till she came here,the first time she ate a big pork chop it made he a little sick but she loves it now so we have been substituting with turkey bacon.

we both love lamb but it is so expensive here in the U.S.

What is it with Lamb?

It doesn't exactly cost "pegs 'n buttons" here in the UK either! Damn pricey stuff!

[Rare Bird]

I think i'd rather eat Italian grub that tons of that stuff Americans eat.Beef is my least fav meat, infact i seldom eat it. Chicken & Pork are the main things in our house,I like Lamb but can't stand the smell of it cooking! i love Fish, the wife isnt too much of a fan but i'd rather eat fish over meat anyday.

To be honest i don't like eating, i think it's a pain in the arse..

[Mike]

Bah.... Fish is for Pelicans. Minging stuff!
