Guest guest Report post Posted May 30, 2004 Well, what is/was on the menu for today? Saturday is generally either a very lazy day or a very busy one - rarely anything in between! So what was on the menu for you today? Something spicy? Something trad? Something quick and easy? If I was to answer my own question, and you know I love to do that *lol*, I'd say that I opted for quick and easy and spicy: Tofu Pad Thai. For tomorrow I dunno - possibly a white curry . . . gotta think it out a bit ;=) We might even go out to grab a bite somewhere . . . And you????? gf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted May 30, 2004 Here is a great recipe that is sure to delight you and anyone who tries it. It's a big hit around here!! 2 C. cooked kidney beans, mashed 2 C. cook pinto beans, mashed 1 lg. finely grated carrot 1 stalk finely chopped celery 1 med. onion, finely chopped 1 garlic clove, minced 2 chopped green chili peppers 1 tsp. cumin 1/4 tsp. kelp 1 tsp. chili powder 1/8 tsp. thyme 1 tsp. vegetable seasoning dash of cayenne pepper TOMATO JUICE Place all of the ingredients in a large skillet and simmer gently for 20 minutes. Stir frequently and add enough tomato juice to keep the mixture from sticking. When it is finished cooking it should have a pasty consistency. While the beans are cooking, place the tortillas in a skillet with a small amount of oil. Cook until tortillas become soft and pliable. Place cooked b bean mixture in the center of each tortilla and add the condiments of your choice. Roll the tortillas up snugly and serve with a bowl of salsa sauce. When you are cooking this very good mixture, you may want to keep a bag of nacho-type chips, just for tasting of course. Actually, the tortillas wraps could be microwaved. Also, you may want to add cheese, tomatoes, onion, lettuce to you burrito. Use your tasty imagination. Peace.

Guest guest Report post Posted May 31, 2004 This sounds like it would be a big hit around here, too ;=) Have you named it? If so, please let me know and if not then *do* so and I'll put it up in the Files. Otherwise it's gonna be Chuckfry's Fry-Up, which is just a bit too cute *lol* Thanks, gf , " chuckfry " <chuckfry@j...> wrote: > Here is a great recipe that is sure to delight you and anyone who tries it. > It's a big hit around here!! > 2 C. cooked kidney beans, mashed > > 2 C. cook pinto beans, mashed > > 1 lg. finely grated carrot > > 1 stalk finely chopped celery > > 1 med. onion, finely chopped > > 1 garlic clove, minced > > 2 chopped green chili peppers > > 1 tsp. cumin > > 1/4 tsp. kelp > > 1 tsp. chili powder > > 1/8 tsp. thyme > > 1 tsp. vegetable seasoning > > dash of cayenne pepper > > TOMATO JUICE > > > > Place all of the ingredients in a large skillet and simmer gently for 20 > minutes.

Guest guest Report post Posted May 31, 2004 Looks fab but can I replace the kelp w/something else or just leave it out? I'd have to hunt down that ingredient & it really doesn't do it for me regardless how healthy. Did I manage to get that out w/out offending anyone?

I should have inferred it from the rest of the recipe instructions in any case ;=) As for my pathetic attempt at wit, best forgotten :=( Okay, I'll stick it up in the files and call it Burrito Filling! gf ===== greenfury2004 Friends.

Guest guest Report post Posted June 1, 2004 Please don't take offense but Memorial Weekend we go to my brothers for our annual ribs'n'ritas weekend. This year my sister & her family joined us. You all would be revolted. Hell, we were revolted but it was yummy & good. Feel free to be disgusted but you asked. To balance it all, I'm sifting through World Vegetarian right now for menu ideas!!
