swiss steak without tomatoes
salisbury steaks with mushroom onion gravy
Miisissippi pot roast, have also used chicken in place of beef
Italian......spaghetti, chicken parmesan, sausage & peppers, pizza
Breakfast for supper.......eggs benedict, sausage breakfast bowl (sausage, onions, peppers, potatoes, mushrooms and beaten egg cooked together), pancakes, french toast.
Soup & sandwiches

An easy one and don't get me wrong. It can be either lobster or shrimp lightly fried in butter...just enough to brown them. (Meat only). Separately make a white cheese sauce with milk and Brie or Camembert ...stir adequately until the cheese basically dissolves/melts...try not to boil but turn heat down if starts to bubble. I usually use a fair amount of cheese; 3-4 ounces. Not too much milk. Have an Avocado cubed ready to blend. I like to cook the lobby/shrimp in ginger pieces as well. Can add a bit of onion to the sauteed meat while cooking also...very much to taste.

Allow the cheese sauce to rest a little and the meat to come off the heat; then blend meat, sauce and avo. Do NOT further cook. Then watch the football!!

It's quite easy. All ready in about 15-20 mins.

Dude......you need to cut back on the holy WTF!!??!? factor.......too late, I've lost my appetite and maybe gonna get sick

If only I could ban you from any food threads.........raw horsemeat & wiggle jiggle pizza. UGH

Don't knock it 'till you've tried it!

 

[Unkotare]

You don't like calamari?

People all over the world eat octopus. Italy, Greece, Japan, DR...

 

[JustAnotherNut]

NO, just some things aren't meant to be eaten.....not by me anyway. If you like it, then by all means you can have my share too.


I may never look at a horse, apples or pizza the same ever again..........and octopus are supposed to be in the ocean or aquarium, not on MY dinner plate.

Just once a year, in October when the weather starts getting nippy, I crave a toasted, buttered English muffin, slathered with braunschweiger, topped with shredded cheddar and broiled until the cheese starts to brown.

Just once a year.

Once in a while, octopus sashimi is okay. Called tako.

A bit chewy, but the subtle, freshly fishy taste is good.

Sashimi? At first I thought it said salami......say wut?

But still no.........1. that sounds Japanese and something Unkotare would like and he's not allowed to post in this thread anymore

and 2. It's that rubbery chew.....if I want that I'll eat a tire.....so it's a no for me.


There is a store I shop at once in a while and they have alot of different ethnic foods. They carry a 'seafood melody' mix that has things like clams, mussels and some others in it, but it also has the very small whole octopus's.....just not my thing I guess

They also have containers of pork blood.......WTF do people eat with that?????? Nevermind, I don't want to know.

House salad with grilled chicken and yogurt dill sauce.

Pork blood! EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!

But I think they make sausage from it. No thanks.

Sashimi is any kind of raw seafood. My late husband was Japanese, so we had it occasionally. Seattle is a good city for it -- a million sushi restaurants.

OK, I THINK I can understand the sausage angle and seems like that is a thing in some sausage, isn't it? Like summer sausage or something similar?? Yeah I don't know that I'd want any of it either.



And what is with RAW seafood anyway? Just no...........fruits & veggies yes, but meat or seafood NOOOO

Everyone is entitles to their tastes.

I tried an English thing called Blood Pudding, or Black Pudding. It depends on who makes it.
