Dinner Tonight: Pork Patties with Lime Leaves and Cilantro

Thanks, Blake! Pictures just can't get things like juiciness and aroma to us, unfortunately. Somehow, though, I managed to not notice the 1/4 pound of bacon in there. That definitely changes things!
Dcarl1's dipping sauce sounds good, too.

It might be me, but those just look a little weird. Maybe if they had some sort of sauce or gravy with them...

Homemade veggie beef soup. It's such a comfort food to everyone and lasts more than a few meals. (and gets better tasting after a day or two)

praise for PBS

My PBS station is always changing the lineup. It bugs me, especially when they remove one of my favs.
America's Test Kitchen is the only one they haven't messed with.

It's Fall but these loose-"leaf" recipes are outta control

Mine are in page protectors in my binder. I need a bigger binder, though!
Or more binders. @moibec-I like the organizing idea. Some day I may have the time to do that with my recipes.

Soup Emergency - Cream or no cream??

I've never had trouble with adding cream to the entire pot and reheating.
Milk is always problematic, but cream can stand up, I think.

Bewitching in the kitchen! What's for dinner 10/27, Tuesday?

Sliced avocado, pico de gallo, sour cream, and cheese on warmed flour tortillas. We call them avocado tacos and usually eat them on Fridays during Lent. Good stuff.

The family that eats together...What's for dinner 10/25 Sunday??

Found snow crab legs at $4.99/lb. yesterday. Bought three pounds. So I guess we'll have that. Hopefully they won't be over-salty.
Also I want to make keftedes (Greek meatballs) to serve on pitas. I've never tried that before, but I found some recipes to draw from.

Soft-Boiled Eggs-Your eating style

Here's a link from this site that's recent:

It gives extensive egg-boiling info.

@Likeswords: that's how I eat my poached eggs!

I will never buy beef at Wal-Mart. There is an off taste, and I think it's injected with solutions so it lasts longer. The beef rolls weird me out. The BIL brought us a big roll because I think he got it at some kind of discount somewhere. It's in the freezer. I have no idea what I'll ever do with it. Maybe if we run out of dog food someday....
We are fortunate to have two local grocers who grind their own meat and package it the same day. We know what we're getting.
As for Wal Mart, my hatred for them grows more every day; for various reasons.

So much for dinner...

Meatloaf. mashed potatoes, and green beans.
We've been having potatoes with every meal. The hubby brought home 100# of them last week! And they're HUGE. It's been quite a challenge despite the fact that we have given quite a few of them away. Arghhhhhh...

The best hot sauce

Love Cholula!!
Sriracha has a slightly sweet flavor that I can't always get into.
Tabasco is great for seasoning as I cook, but I don't use it as a condiment.

Grilling: Green Chile Cheeseburger

Canned green chiles are a very poor substitute. They have a tinny, vinegary flavor. You better bust out and grill the poblanos.

Grilling: Green Chile Cheeseburger

We ate at Buckhorn Tavern last month on our way to Las Cruces. desert_rat, you were right about the long line. We waited about an hour (thankfully in the shade!).
The burgers were great. The owner was there; he actually cleaned our table, seated us, and served our burgers. Very nice guy.
I made green chile cheeseburgers last night with some freshly roasted green chile, and my son actually compared them to the Buckhorn Tavern's!
Bobcat Bite is closer to where I live, so we go there fairly often. Excellent green chile cheeseburgers there, too.
One summer during chile season a friend came to visit from Florida and could not believe the chile craze. He almost lost it when he saw the sign at McD's advertising the green chile burgers!
Also, I think the chile is finding its way to various places around the country. My bro in North Carolina found some Hatch chile at the grocery store. Anyone else find Hatch chile at the store where you live? (not canned)

My family would be happy if I'd make them chicken and dumplings at least once a week. (And it's so easy!)

My family did roast chicken dinners every Sunday when I was growing up. Can't beat grandma's cooking!

Spaghetti with meatballs and chunks of Italian sausage in a smooth garlicky red sauce, caesar salad with homemade garlic croutons, warm crusty Italian bread with butter, a nice barolo, and lemon cheesecake for dessert.

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?

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.

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.
