Snow, Snow and more snow..... and no more soup! It went so fast! Everyone ate and ate and ate! Which is a compliment.... coming from MY kids I might make it every day! LOL KIDDING!!!!
Just don't make pink chicken soup. That won't fly...
I tried creating the above last night. Used apples, fennel, onion, celery, red pepper and garlic along with caraway, parsley, cinnamon and a pinch of brown sugar and once sauted, added it to the rice.
It wasn't bad ... but it was missing something. Neither my wife nor I have been able to figure out what that someone was but we know it was incomplete.
If you saute the veggies, then add the rice to the veggies and stir-fry a little, then add stock and simmer till rice is done, you'd have a kind of risotto with a deeper flavor than cooking them separately.

And maybe add a splish of Worcestershire sauce...
Oh that's also very interesting!! I love the ideas that come from my fellow foodies!!! Thanks.
I'm going to do a lazy version of chicken cordon bleu. Instead of pounding the breasts flat, rolling up the ham and swiss inside, and then browning them before adding the sauce ingredients, I dump everything in a casserole dish and bake it.
Hi All! Been gone...but hope to get back into the discussion! Taking our time at settling in in our new Wash. location. We went to a fantastic play in Seattle last night and had lasagna, steamed veggies and salad for the dinner,
followed by pumpkin pie and apple spiced tea after the play. I have missed all the great dinner ideas and boy I sure appreciate all the yummy ideas.
Location: Finally made it to Florida and lovin' every minute!

Welcome back, daytripper. Best of luck in your new home.
OK. Last night's potroast report. DH did some different things. He put strips of real smokey bacon over the roast, then dumped baby carrots and sliced yellow and green (zucchini) squash over it with chunks of onion. We also had smashed red taters. Oh, what that bacon did to the roast. Yum. However, he still hasn't figured out it takes longer than an hour and a half to cook so that it'll be tender. OH, well, it was still delicious, just a bit on the chewy side!
Congratulate me - I just put my first pecan pie in the oven about 25 minutes ago and it smells wonderful. And, no, it's NOT a Mrs. Smith!
Dinner tonight? Glad you asked. Prime rib roast. Other than that and pecan pie for dessert, I'm not sure what else besides baked potato.
NMS....congratualtions on your first pecan pie! I love pecan pie but have never mustered up the courage to make one myself! Enjoy!
case44, yes, it's true! This thread has amazed us all I think. But we all have to eat and what better way to do that then to share ideas here?? It's all those wonderful, faithful posters who have made this thread such a fun place to come!
