That cake looks amazing!

 

Also, burrito wraps is a brilliant idea. I should try that.

Chicken and artichoke hearts with feta cheese and Greek peppers.

1/4 extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tbsp butter
3 anchovies
5 cloves of garlic
1 lemon for zesting
1 14 oz can quartered artichoke hearts
1 lb chicken (tenderloin strips) cubed

Olive oil and butter in small sauce pan with anchovies over med-low heat. As butter melts mash anchovies with wood spoon until a paste. Once oil begins to bubble, remove from heat and add garlic (finely chopped or crushed) and lemon zest.

Set oven to broil.

Combine chicken and artichokes in rimmed baking pan, adding seasalt and pepper to taste. Drizzle oil over chicken. Mix well. Place in oven and stir occasionally. Chicken should be done in 15 to 20.

Serve in a bowl (over gluten-free pasta might be nice) with feta chease and peppers.

Serves 2

So i put out a roast to thaw. I'm thinking of doing something different other than my soups, so planning on cutting it up and cooking up the pieces with a side of veggie. Now what to season it with. I may just do some salt and Pepper.

 

Good idea?

 

Any ideas on how to keep it tender? I know cooking it when its room temp and at a lower temp, but thats about it.

What type of roast?  How much does it weigh? 

 

I would roast the roast -- then cut it into little pieces to use in a variety of ways.

 

Salt and pepper is all we use regularly on my meat -- I do use dried herbs and garlic as well if you have them lying around.

Jose, just for the record, when you put pictures of cake like that, you are

required by board rules to describe it's deliciousness in detail, and also

provide a recipe. Ok, that's not a board rule, but it should be!

 

haha no problem

 

Ingredients

 

1 can of Libby’s pumpkin
2 cup sugar
1/2 cup canola oil
1 1/2 cup apple sauce
5 eggs
3 cups flour mix
2 tsp xanthan gum if flour mix does not contain xanthan gum
3 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger for a spiced cake
1/2 cup cocoa powder
3/4 tsp kosher salt

 

Preheat oven to 350*

 

• You will need 2 large mixing bowls one for wet ingredients and for dry.
   
• To make your flour mix I used 4 cups white rice flour, 1 1/2 cup potato starch, 2/3 cup tapioca starch mixed up into a large canister mix well and measure out your 3 cups. You can use premixes as well.
   
• Dry: SIFT (very important to sift it gives the cake air) flour into your dry mixing bowl with xanthan gum, cocoa powder, baking soda, and cinnamon. Add salt and now whisk all dry ingredients to combine.
   
• Wet: in your 2nd bowl combine pumpkin, sugar, apple sauce and oil into your stand mixer or mixing bowl and beat to combine. Add eggs one at a time until mixture is runny and all ingredients are combined.
   
• Add the dry mix into your wet ingredients. This mixture will be very thick almost so the spoon can stand up in the bowl.
   
• In 2 greased cake pans split batter into 2 and spread. Place pans into a 350* oven and bake for about half an hour. Check cakes with a toothpick, toothpick will come out clean when cakes are done.

Allow to cool before frosting.

 

 

Frosting is made by whipping together

 

2 8oz packages of cream cheese (I used pumpkin pie spiced cream cheese)
1/4 cup confectioners sugar
Spread in the middle and top of the cake
1 also used 8oz dark chocolate Philadelphia’s indulgence cream cheese spread for the top and sides.

Allow cake to chill for half an hour to one hour so cream cheese can set up.

That's the basic idea of this thread...we all talk food and general conversation -- much like we would if we were dining in each other's homes -- my husband likes to lurk in this thread because we both cook -- he just doesn't post -- that's a good point -- if there is anyone else reading along...

 

What are you having for dinner tonight?

Tri Tip on the Q

Zu noodles for me - angel hair with lots of garlic and butter for the men

Broccoli

 

They are still working on minty fudge cake for dessert -- I am having a few M&Ms -- small amounts of soy seem to be ok -- I am whispering that because last time I bragged about my red lentil experiment I got schooled the next day
