I got a new crockpot!

Tis a six-quart oval with a clickety dial! Now I can do my New England boiled dinners with bigger cuts of meat, and get all the red taters in at once!

I got two of the right chickens for bone broth too.

ahk · 12-08-2012, 03:37 PM

I'm stuffed.

I enjoyed a catfish po'boy w/ crunchy slaw and pickles w/ hot sauce.
&
I enjoyed a burger w/ caramelized onions, a balsamic rosemary reduction, with bleu cheese burger.
&
I enjoyed a BBQ pork slider with tangy sauce on an Hawaiian roll
&
I enjoyed a crepe filled with lemon butter and powdered sugar
&
I enjoyed a poached pear with bleu cheese ice cream and candied walnuts
& lastly
I enjoyed a eggnog ice cream.

Of course, I didn't eat all of this by myself, but myself and 2 others did-- we shared and talked, and laughed.

Good times.

Earlier I mentioned a Mussel dish that was my Dad's favorite. Here is the recipe if you want to make this at home:

Mussels in Garlic Sauce

2lbs Fresh Mussels, soaked and cleaned (soak in cold water with a little corn meal to purge any sand)

6 Cloves of Garlic - Chopped

1 Large Fresh lemon or 2 small Lemons, juiced

1/2 Cup Dry White Wine or 1/4 Cup Rice Vinegar+1/4 Cup Water

2 T Butter

2T Olive Oil (Blended Olive Oil)

Sea Salt & Fresh ground Black Pepper

Tabasco

Directions:

In a large saute' pan or 6-8Qt pot, heat Olive oil over medium heat, and saute chopped garlic for one minute. Add mussels, Wine or Vinegar/Water mix, Lemon Juice, Butter and a few dashes of Tabasco. Simmer over medium heat with a lid on for 3 minutes. Remove lid and stir. Cover again and cook for 5 minutes. Remove lid and stir. Your mussels should now be open and cooked through. Toss in a pinch of Sea Salt and Fresh Ground Black Pepper.

Serve with garlic bread.

Yeild: 2 entree's or 4 appetizers

ahk · 12-08-2012, 06:28 PM

Sun, I did indeed have a feast.
About your recipe: Can you use baby clams, instead
of mussels? (truth be hold, I've never eaten a mussel)

Because I'm so known as a meat-chef, when I talk about Meatless Monday some people look at me like I've lost my mind. I'm like, look, I'm not saying beef and pork is bad, I love it and I eat it six days a week. --Michael Symon

Do any of you do the "meatless monday" too? We try often -- thinking we'll have a grilled veggie cheese w/ cream of tomato tonight. What about you?

Hi ahk.

I actually eat very little meat. More poultry and fish, but lots of vegetarian meals. My sweetheart is more of a meat eater. And in her culture the fat is highly regarded, so many dishes are created to highlight the fatty cuts.

ahk · 12-17-2012, 12:13 PM

So what are some of your favourite veggie dishes-- care to share?
(sorry I've been MIA, just been busy)

When I was a kid, my mom would make her scrambled eggs, toast, and bacon for holiday breakfast. She still does this-- mmm.

My honey, makes her scrumptious french toast w/ fruit & syrup, with a side of turkey green chili sausage links.

I'm not a huge breakfast cooker--

easygoingfemme · 12-18-2012, 06:36 AM

Breakfasts! I love breakfast.
I almost always eat eggs in the morning but like to dress them up.
I usually have some sauteed onions and a green like spinach or kale chopped fine to go in with the onions. Then eggs scrambled with a little nutritional yeast and almond milk to cook in with the greens and onions.

Over the summer my daughter started making this but added little bits of minced smoked salmon to the eggs as well. Oh was that a good call on her part! She also likes to add Queso to the eggs...

We're planning Christmas dinner now, my favorite part is the big fish boil with clams, shrimp, and mussels in a spicy broth. That with coconut maple whipped sweet potatoes, roasted brussels sprouts and cauliflower, a kale salad, my Grandma's cornbread pudding, my sister-in-law's vegan stuffing... yum.
