You guys rock!

I love hanging here...although very distracting and i am trying to be disciplined and finish my project...as if.

Ha!

Here is a simply Greek recipe....probably self evident.

Greek-style chicken

Take chicken (rinse)

Put it in pan

Cut potatoes in wedges

Put them in pan

Cut onions in wedges

Put them in pan

Douse with extra virgin olive oil (I am fussy)

Some sea salt (better for your health), lots of pepper (love pepper)

Sprinkle dried oregano, go nuts

Squeeze in half to a whole lemon

Stir around , turn over and over cover everything in this concoction

Add a little bit of water

Throw in wedges of garlic too if you feel so inclined

(I have even thrown in wedges of artichokes at times)

Bake at 325 for 45 min to an hour

Easy breezy.

Delish!

It does sound interesting (*already planning on adding cinnamon and chili pepper* ).

Thanks Len, I am going to try this.

I guess we were both creating threads at the same time IR5!

IR5 don't read this part thanks (len can you post it in my thread too thanks)

It's all good.

Okay, although my first thought after laughing was:

I must confess:

I have eaten Ritz crackers for dinner....oh yes and for breakfast too.

Anytime.

Ha!

That and Jiffy Pop...that is more work though...especially drowning it in butter....

oh but the stomach ache the next morning...ooooouuu

[Kazan' Tiger 1]

Don't get me wrong. I actually like to cook. But not for one. I don't see the sense of all that work for only myself. I've had crackers and cheese, popcorn, and simple sandwiches for dinner very often. My attitude quickly changes, though, when I'm with my family.

Pumpkin Cookies with Penuche Frosting

1 cup butter

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

1 cup pumpkin puree

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup chopped walnuts

3 tablespoons butter

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 cup milk

2 cups powdered sugar

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.

In a large bowl, cream together shortening, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and white sugar. Mix in pumpkin, egg, and vanilla. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; mix into the creamed mixture. Stir in walnuts. Drop dough by heaping spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets.

OK. By popular demand here is where you post your favourite recipe. It doesn't matter what it is (even refried dog poop ) just post it. I doesn't matter if you studied at the Cordon Bleu, we want to know. There may be people with limited kitchen abilities reading (men primarily , but some of us guys do cook pretty damn well) so be as detailed as possible. Now if anyone can remember the recipe for orange ice-box cookies, I'd be much obliged.

I'll start.

Froot Loops.

Get box of Froot Loops.

Put in big honkin' bowl.

Add milk.

Eat.

Get Diabetes and watch teeth rot out.

Serves no one.

But...what do I add first? Milk, or the cereal?
