Your best fajita recipe!

I want to make a GOOD chicken or steak fajita. I have always used the fajita seasoning packets, but now want to make them from scratch. Does anyone have a good recipe?

I want to roast potatoes. drizzle with olive oil and rosemary. All of the recipes I have seen call for red, new potatoes, will the Yukon Gold work?

Actually if you are that intelligent redhead, you would not even be in the deli line! Ask a nutritionist. :D

I agree BESSFOUR about the "only a high school diploma" statement. My parents "only have a high school diploma" and are much smarter than people I have met in university!! That is a close mineded statement.....sorry.

Down Home With The Neely's Dilemma!

I love Ina and Jeffrey! She seems soooo in love with him! She also has some delicious recipes.
I caught alittle of the Neelys show and felt uncomfortable also. I feel the same about Paulas Party. (at times). Sexual innuendos throughout. Do we not see and hear enough of that on tv! Why does it have to be on the FN? grrrr

Wow, IMO that is ridiculous to ask for nine tenths of a pound. Are you being serious?
It sounds as if you might be control freaks. :-)

Paula Deen Is Trying To Kill Us

So what? No one is forcing you to make it and eat it. Its not harmful to eat things like this once in awhile, and in moderation. If you don't like her, don't watch her. RELAX. Besides butter is PURE FAT already anyway. Aren't there more important things in the world to b**ch about?

@RoseL ~ I can only speak for myself, but as a person fascinated by food, there is ZERO room on my DVR for Fake reality television. Go figure.....

I LOVE the Neely's. Their playful banter comes across as 100% genuine. I don't know how anyone can be grossed out by it or find it inappropriate. It's a beautiful thing to me to see a married couple who obviously adore each other. Funny.....people don't seem to be bugged by the psycho personalities and disgusting behavior on some of these reality shows, yet when a MARRIED couple show some passion, they get upset? Go figure.

Dean: "I'm gettin' fatter by the day. I just hate my arterae. I'll plug 'em up and make 'em die, 'cause everything I eat is fried."

Paula Deen Is Trying To Kill Us

As a Southern belle, born and bred, and having lived in Georgia for 45 years, I have to say that everyone in my family agrees that Paula puts on a lot of that drawl. In all my years I have never heard ANYONE talk like she does, unless they are parodying ignorant Southerners. But hey, it seems to be getting her what she wants - lots of attention.

As for her recipes, they too are mostly for show. Southerners know about serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and diabetes. Yes, we have regional favorites, but they wouldn't make Yankees gawk and watch a show. Folks, "that's entertainment," I suppose.

For a true slice of Southern cuisine, please pick up a copy of Southern Living magazine or one of their cookbooks. For a funnier parody of Southern rednecks, watch reruns of "HeeHaw."

TVFN has a terrible habit of confusing the word "chef" with "cook."

Down Home With The Neely's Dilemma!

Another Foodnetwork classic example of putting people in front of the camera who think they are entertainers instead of teachers. What I have learned lately is that some home "chefs" have graduated from this level of questionable education and move on. There are so many good cooking shows on PBS (and a few on FoodNW). We need only point our remote control at our TV and move on to what pleases us.

Down Home With The Neely's Dilemma!

I have been watching the Neely's since the beginning. Overtime, I have found Gina to be far too anoying. I have noticed that Pat tries to tell some small stories about certain dishes, and immediately Gina cuts him off. I do enjoy watching him. I get the feeling that if he does not indulge Gina in her need for attention, he will have hell to pay. I love the recipes. Can someone just ask Miss Gina to tone it down, so we don't have to turn them off.

Back when Giada first came on, my then 21 year old college son told me it was "soft porn" and that he never missed it. His affection for Giada turned into a genuine love of cooking. She was never trashy or overtly sexual: the camera work and the pace of the show made it sensual.
