    Thanks Chris and Instapot. You gave me an idea tonight. Lentil w/ sausage in my pressure cooker. I made pretzels so that'll be my Dunkers.

    Eg, that sounds so special occasion. I'm jealous :)

    I don't cook as much as I used to, but I make a good orange chicken. It's just chicken thighs, cayenne and orange juice. Just simmer until the orange juice becomes syrupy, and it's done. Sometimes I'll mount it with butter.

    I firmly believe chili should not have beans in it. That's not a law, just for me, I hate pinto beans in my chili.

    Texas chili has no beans (or rice or pasta) at all...just meat, meat meat. I've received awards whenever I compete. Just a hobby and a fun day.

    • 76 friends

    Yeah, I guess my style is a Texas recipe. I also put masa flour in the end, it thickens it significantly, so I keep it loose, because masa eats up the liquids

    I've never added masteca to my chile, I'll note that. I don't make chili often, cuz if we do a competition, I'm so chili'd out. However I do like a chili dog from the weinersnitzel (sp?)

    Those are yummy. About ten or more years ago Martha Stewart made what she called Super Bowl wings and she baked/roasted her wings. Put wings in a big container then her wing sauce recipe, sealed the container, shook it. I always looked forward to "burping" the box as I opened a corner. Yumyum

    Normally I would agree about no cheese on seafood, but parmesan has a lot of umami, and not much dairy goodness.

    The costume with the three don't want to cook. Their chickens are much larger than Walmart, Safeway, SMART AND FINAL, etc. and cheaper to. $4.99. I picked it up right when he came out of the oven today. I end up turning it into deli style chicken salad for a quick prep meal as well as my Asian chicken salad one chicken for me turns into three different options.
