My first cookbook is Mark Bittman's How to Cook Everything. Very handy, all-purpose.
Gadgets: The Apple Peeler/Corer
Why add more clutter to your kitchen if you can just use a paring knife? The time saved is really not that much.
Omitting Soda Pop
I have found flavored carbonated mineral water to be a good replacement. It has no artificial sweetener and no empty calories.
Seriously Asian: Tofu Dengaku
This looks delicious! I wonder if you could use this recipe for eggplant as well.
I eat ______ out of the tin/jar/bottle...
Pickles (particularly cornichons) and ice cream (that's definitely a comfort thing)

Leftover steak?
Thank you for the additional suggestions!
-the realchiffonade - you're right - why would I do that to a rib-eye! It doesn't do it justice! I wasn't paying attention -_____-
Leftover steak?
These suggestions are great! I came to a road block with this. I have one rib-eye steak left that I had cooked medium-well and don't want to eat it plain and was worried if I cooked it further it would get too tough.

brie and good mayo on a crispy baguette!
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Edible Chocolate Box from Charles Chocolates
I like a chocolate cake with good chocolate frosting. The cake has to be moist and rich in chocolate flavor; the chocolate frosting has to have just the right amount of sweetness, but not too much. The frosting should also not taste too buttery.

Layer sauerkraut in a casserole dish, place pork chops on top and season (I use cracked black pepper, garlic powder and smoked paprika), cover with lid or seal with foil, bake in 400 degree oven for 45 minutes. I like to make mashed potatoes with it, but have also just done steamed veggies on the side.

We called it "chicken and glop", but it was chicken and rice. How did my mother put up with us?
Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'
It depends on the weather for me, but at this time of year it's roast chicken, mashed potatoes, peas (homegrown, please; frozen peas from the store are inevitably overripe), green salad, and pie.

My favorite family dinner would have to be posole. We have it every christmas eve with fresh tamales and it is sooo good.
Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'
Gosh, my favorite family dinner!? That's hard . My family is full of great cooks so I guess it has more to do with the atmosphere. So then I would have to go with Christmas eve dinner. 14 cousins plus 16 Aunts and Uncles all eating and drinking and being merry. Usually there's a goose (which doesn't hurt) and floating islands for desert. super yummm, it warms my heart just to think about it.

Boring but comforting - an overly stuffed tuna salad sandwich, on wonderful crusty rye bread, a slight smear of mayo, crisp iceberg lettuce, juicy tomato, cut in half please.

Irish Coddle. A big pot, almost stew but with not quite enough liquid, of potatoes, bacon, sausage and onion. Gets you fattened up for hibernation season.

One of my favorite family meals is banh xeo. They're savory, yellow crepes and having all sorts of people in my family through marriage, some being born in Vietnam, some being born here, etc., my mom gets a lot of different requests as to what to put in them. First she makes the vegetarian kind for those folks then regular Americanized ones then the hardcore ones.
