Hi everyone,

I don't know if I've said this before but I love to cook and bake. I
don't do as much of it as I like but having to share a tiny kitchen with
my parents doesn't lend itself to doing a lot of cooking. I like to
collect recipes also but I make them myself sometimes.

Here's a recipe for a meatloaf made with ground turkey that actually
stays moist through its cooking process. My second wife, Maura, came up
with this recipe based on one she found.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Maura's Easy Meatloaf
Categories: Main dish, Meats, Seandennis
Yield: 1 Loaf

1 1/2 lb Ground turkey meat
1 c Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
2 Beaten eggs
8 oz Tomato sauce (one small can)
1 T Dried onion
1/2 t Salt
1/4 t Pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl
together. Add wet ingredients (except turkey burger) and mix well.
Add turkey burger to the mixture, mixing with your hands until all
ingredients are mixed together smoothly. Put the mixture in a loaf
pan, place into oven and bake for one hour. When done, remove from
oven and serve warm.

Sean's note: My second wife modified this recipe from the orginal one,
"Meatloaf III", at
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Cookbook:Meatloaf_III. I like this
version of meatloaf a lot and it has a nice spicy taste to it because
of the seasoned breadcrumbs. This recipe is good because it's simple
and can be modified easily to your tastes.

MMMMM

Though it's after 2 AM as I write this, this suddenly sounds good. I
haven't had it in at least eight years ... might become dinner sometime
this week.

We made meatloaf every other week or so and mostly use ground turkey. It
sits in my stomach better then beef. However I /hate/ ground chicken. LOL

I haven't bought ground turkey in years but I do have about six pounds
of el-cheapo ground beef hiding out in my freezer I need to cook. I
might start getting turkey as while it's more expensive, it too sits on
my stomach better. My parents grind up chicken breasts for dog food ingredients. I don't eat a lot of chicken myself.

I don't know how Mexican this recipe is ... never seen turkey used in
Mexican cooking before!

Sure thing and I am glad you like it. Let's see if there's another one
here you might like ...

Here we go. One of my favorite recipes and one I grew up with. This
works with macaroni or any other round pasta that "holds" sauce well.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Mom's Cheddar Cheese Sauce
Categories: Sauces, Seandennis
Yield: 5 Cups

1/2 c Butter or margarine
1/2 c Flour
1 t Salt
1/2 t Pepper
4 c Milk*
2 c Shredded mild cheddar (8 oz)

In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter then whisk in the
flour, salt, and pepper. Gradually add milk and bring to a boil;
cook and stir for two minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat; add
the cheese. Cook and stirl until cheese is melted. 5 1/2 cups yield.

Add to macaroni (onion and ham is good with macaroni), vegetables, or
baked potatoes.

* = Mom's note: "I use 2 cups evaporated milk and 2 cups of water for
the milk ingredient."

Sean's note: This sauce is good and thick. It makes for a great
macaroni and cheese with ham or poured over gently steamed broccoli
florets.

I've always loved meatloaf, my mom made it often and my wife did as
well. After the divorce I was looking for "easy" things to cook during
weekdays and meatloaf was one of them and even though I am taking an
"easy" route with it, it is pretty decent and with some masted taters
and vegs it's a complete meal.

My "recipe" is just ground beef, crumbled up crackers, lipton onion
soup mix, ketchup and sometimes a bit of A1 to add some more flavor to
it.

Comes out very well.

Now, my attempt at chicken fried steak? Yea, I probably won't be trying
that again LOL.

Sean,

In the meatloaf, the turkey is okay. I was talking about the meatloaf with my mom and evidently my parents detest ground turkey. I like dark turkey meat and on Thanksgiving, I get to eat all I want.

I'm just the opposite...I prefer white meat. Years ago, when I was working for a local Burger King franchise...some nights, I was the only "white person" on the crew...but we had a blast. One of my many black friends there, called out the order for "Chicken...make it all white meat!!". <G>

It was, and all of us roared in laughter. :) That's their original chicken sandwich, which I love (I prefer to add cheese and tomato to it)...and I also love the flavor of their original chicken nuggets (I can't handle the spicy ones, but I'm sure my late wife, Janice, would've been able to).

I just get burnt out. Right now, I am jonesing for Pizza Hut Meat
Lover's for some reason even though I know what it likes to do to my
gut.

I love any meat lovers pizza...with plenty of mozarella cheese, ground
beef (hamburger), sausage, ham, pepperoni, and Canadian bacon. I top it
off with the "sweet onions", but I get them confused...whether it's the
white or purple onion that's sweet (I don't care for the "hot onion").

Now, I need to wipe the slobber off of my keyboard. <G>

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Breakfast Garbage Bread (Food Network)
Categories: Breakfast, Breads, Seandennis
Yield: 1 Servings

2 1/2 c Frozen potato tots
1 12 oz. package pork
Breakfast sausage
10 Strips bacon (8 ounces)
5 Large eggs
2 c Grated American Cheese (6
Ounces)
2 c Grated white Cheddar (6 oz)
All-purpose flour for
Dusting
1 1/2 lb Store-bought pizza dough
(see Cook's Note)
Ketchup and/or hot sauce,
For serving

Prep : 30 min
Inactive: 15 min
Cook : 1 hr 10 min
Total : 1 hr 55 min

Crumbled bacon and breakfast sausage mingle with potato tots, eggs and
melted American cheese in this garbage bread, which is reminiscent of
a breakfast sandwich or burrito. Serve it with lots of hot sauce or
ketchup for early-morning tailgating or for a portable breakfast on a
camping trip.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment
and spread the potato tots on the sheet. Bake until golden brown and
crisp, about 25 minutes. Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and
let cool. Lower the oven to 400 degrees F.

Meanwhile, heat the sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium
heat and cook, stirring to break up the sausage, until browned and no
longer pink, about 8 minutes. Transfer the sausage to paper towels
with a slotted spoon to drain; discard any remaining fat. Let the
sausage cool, then crumble into 1/2-inch pieces.

Heat the bacon in the skillet over medium heat and cook, flipping
once, until browned, about 8 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the bacon
to paper towels to drain; discard any remaining fat. Let the bacon
cool, then crumble into 1/2-inch pieces.

Prepare a bowl of ice water and set aside. Cover 4 eggs by 1 inch with
water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover the pan, remove
from the heat and let the eggs stand for 6 minutes. Uncover and drain
the eggs, then transfer to the bowl of ice water and let stand for 3
minutes. Drain and peel the eggs, then quarter each egg lengthwise.

Toss the American cheese and Cheddar together in a small bowl until
evenly combined.

Roll the dough into a 20-by-14-inch rectangle on a lightly floured
work surface. Starting from the shorter end, spread the cheese
mixture evenly over half of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on the
sides. Scatter the sausage, bacon and potato tots evenly over the
cheese. Arrange all the egg quarters, yolk up, along the short side
of the rectangle. Working from this short side, tightly roll the
dough up, jelly roll-style, into a log. Pinch the open seams together
to seal, then tuck them underneath the log.

Beat the remaining egg. Transfer the log to the prepared baking sheet
and brush with the egg wash. Bake until the bread is golden brown all
over, about 40 minutes.

Let the bread cool for 10 minutes. Halve the bread lengthwise, cut
each half crosswise into 4 equal pieces and serve warm with ketchup
or hot sauce.

Copyright 2016 Television Food Network, G.P. All rights reserved.

Cook's Note: To make rolling and shaping the dough easy, keep the
dough refrigerated until 10 to 15 minutes before you are ready to use
it.

I do like Papa John's. My favorite pizza is a Domino's thin crust with
cheese, mushrooms, and black olives. That's a taste trifecta for me. I
have to be careful with meats as they seem to flare up the ulcer a bit
much these days, even with taking Prilosec and apple cider vinegar.

Title: MUSHROOM, TURKEY AND SWISS CHEESE PIZZA
Categories: Pizza
Yield: 1 Servings

4 White mushrooms (about 4 oz)
2 ts Olive oil
1 sm Pizza shell (6" round)
3 sl Turkey or ham (thin slices)
1 md Tomato, thinly sliced
Coarsely ground black pepper
-to taste
2 ts Chopped parsley or basil
3 sl Swiss cheese (thin slices;
-about 1 oz)

If you like a Southwestern taste to your pizza, substitute slices of
smoked chicken breast and Monterey Jack cheese, then sprinkle with
chopped cilantro. Or create a great Italian taste with prociutto and
mozzarella. Pizza shells are now in the refrigerator case or in their
own display rack in most supermarkets.

1. Preheat oven to 450'F.

2. Wipe mushrooms clean and trim stems; slice.

3. Heat oil in a small skillet. Add mushroom slices and cook over
high heat for 2 minutes, shaking skillet. Reserve.

4. Cover pizza shell with turkey slices. Top with slices mushrooms and
tomato. Sprinkle with pepper to taste and 1 1/2 teaspoons parsley.
Top with cheese.

5. Bake 8-10 minutes, or until cheese is golden and bubbly. Garnish
with remaining parsley. Serve immediately.

I've been partially cooking broccoli in the microwave, then tossing it into a hot cast iron pan with a little bit of olive oil, sea salt and
red pepper flakes. A little char goes a long way to livening it up.

Oh, that sounds delicious. I will remember that. I agree that a little
char does go a long way on the flavor train (great, now I sound like Guy Fieri).

I am starting to see there's fellow fans of cast iron cooking in here
too. Down in Sevierville, TN, about a 90 minute drive from here,
there's two Lodge Cast Iron factory outlets. So much cast iron, so many
deals (and so little money for me, unfortunately). I love going in to
one of those stores and looking around.

Looks like I only have about five cast iron recipes. I'll need to fix
that.

I'm just the opposite...I prefer white meat. Years ago, when I was working for a local Burger King franchise...some nights, I was the only "white person" on the crew...but we had a blast. One of my many black friends there, called out the order for "Chicken...make it all white meat!!". <G>

Years ago when I lived in Carbondale, Illinois, (around the early
2000s), I worked at a local McDonald's and one of my co-workers that I
got along with well was this tall, lanky black guy named ... oh, I just
had his name in my head and I forgot it already ... well, we'd joke a
lot. One cold December morning during breakfast, Jon (hah,
remembered!) had to go into the freezer to grab a box of sausage

into my freezer next to me, and shivered. He said, "Man, that ain't no
place for a brother to be." We all laughed hard.

It was, and all of us roared in laughter. :)

Jon, myself, and others would get in trouble for making, uhm,
inappropriate jokes about many things back there on the grill. It was a
good time and we all had a good time doing a crappy job.

That's their original
chicken sandwich, which I love (I prefer to add cheese and tomato to it)...and I also love the flavor of their original chicken nuggets (I can't handle the spicy ones, but I'm sure my late wife, Janice,
would've been able to).

I love BK's original chicken sandwich plain with cheese. I also love
BK's French fries right out of the fryer without salt. Yum. Not good
for me but darn good-tasting.

I remember some years ago when I was working at a BK here in Johnson
City on July 4. They had the original chicken sandwich for $1 ... we
sold over 5000 of those in an eight-hour span!

I love any meat lovers pizza...with plenty of mozarella cheese,
ground beef (hamburger), sausage, ham, pepperoni, and Canadian bacon. I top it off with the "sweet onions", but I get them confused...whether
it's the white or purple onion that's sweet (I don't care for the "hot onion").

Like I said earlier in this packet, I gotta be careful with meats these
days though Canadian bacon isn't too bad. Something I do like very much
on pizza is chorizo but that is in very limited amounts these days. I
like pineapple on my pizza too but I guess that makes me weird with some
people (not that I'm not already).

Now, I need to wipe the slobber off of my keyboard. <G>

Put water in steamer first, and start steamer. Add rice after 5

wooden spoon, steam for 5 minutes more. Add chicken cubes and
chopped scallions. Let warm for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with soy sauce.
This dish is very popular for a fast and filling lunch in Japan but
is seldom on menus because there is no challenge to cooking it. I
learned about it from a Japanese roommate of one of my girlfriends.

THe basic combination seems to be rice, chopped vegetables, and
chopped cooked meat, sprinkled with either chopped scallions or
grated daikon and soy sauce.

There is an entire class of recipes in Japanese cuisine called
donburi. This consists of eggs, vegetables, and some (cooked) meats,
steamed on top of cooking rice and served with a variety of sauces.

I'm sure it is. I'm often too lazy to warm something up, and I think
I actually would prefer this sandwich cold. :)

Me also when it comes to being too lazy about that. I am not sure why but
it seems like now in the age of the microwave, it is more difficult to get
meat warmed up just right to melt the cheese and go on two slices of
toaster bread than it was to do it all in the skillet. Still faster, but somehow more difficult and not as satisfying.

Pineapple is the ultimate pizza topping. Something about the sweetness combined with the other flavors really sets it off. I had a milk and cheese allergy when I was growing up, so I never was able to eat Pizza.

Oh shoot. Are we talking about Grilled Cheese Sandwhiches now? One of my favorites, and something I can actually cook.

I like to take real irish butter, smear it on the outside of the bread, then on the inside add a thick slice of sharp cheddar, along with garlic powder, parsley flakes, and some hot sauce. Close it up, sprinkle a bit of truffle salt on the top, and throw it in the pan. Variations include adding a slice of Ham and a Fried egg for the ultimate breakfast sandwhich.

Bob,

Oh yeah! Love Shepherd's Pie. Good idea. I like to add some cheddar too, just to max out the fat.

One of the many things I'll always remember from the late Nancy Backus,
who was a frequent participant in several echoes, were her QWK Mail
taglines.

Along this line, she had one that basically said "Forget the nutrition!! Bring on the luscious fat!!" <G>.

I had a QWK Tagline years ago of "I took an IQ test, and the results
were negative". She replied "That explains a lot!! <g,d,r>" <G>.

She replied a few days later "I hope you weren't offended by that",
and I told her "I got a good laugh out of it".

She lost her battle with stomach cancer late last year, and is sorely
missed. I think Sean Dennis dedicated his Scrabble door on his BBS to
her memory.

Sean,

Years ago when I lived in Carbondale, Illinois, (around the early
2000s), I worked at a local McDonald's and one of my co-workers that I
got along with well was this tall, lanky black guy named ... oh, I just had his name in my head and I forgot it already ... well, we'd joke a
lot. One cold December morning during breakfast, Jon (hah,
remembered!) had to go into the freezer to grab a box of sausage
patties. He came out, set the box on the assembly line for me to put
into my freezer next to me, and shivered. He said, "Man, that ain't no place for a brother to be." We all laughed hard.

I'll bet. There was this one black girl there that always referred to
me as "the little virgin boy". Another lady I square danced with always
told me "if you don't use it, it'll fall off". I've got news for her
(yeah, I know...TMI <G>).

But, it reminds me of the joke with the little boy and little girl in
this small country town many years ago, when life was slower and simpler,
and not so rushed...never mind you didn't have to worry about hurting
someone else's feelings...let alone the pedophiles or perverts preying
on young kids.

The boy was Protestant and the girl was Catholic...and their churches
were next to each other. They were good friends, and one Sunday, they
were in their "Sunday duds", walking to church. During the respective
church services, it came one heck of a thunderstorm. Afterwards, there
is standing water practically everywhere. As they're walking home, they
realize if they get their clothes dirty, they both will get the spanking
of their lives.

Panicked, the girl asks her friend what they can do. He thinks a
minute, and says "I'll do like Sir Walter Raleigh. Let's strip butt
naked, and I'll take our clothes across to where they don't get wet
or muddy, then I'll carry you across". The girl thought that was a
great idea.

So, they strip butt naked, and as a pure gentleman, he carries the
clothes, then her across to dry land, as it were.

As they're standing there, looking at each others nude body, the
girl says "I didn't know there was such a difference between
Protestants and Catholics!!" <BG>

There was another meme, showing the back sides of this little boy
and girl...both naked, with their butt cheeks in all their glory
(we're all the same from the back side).

He is standing on top of her head, and he asks "OK, we took off all
our clothes, and I got on top of you. When is it supposed to feel
good??".

She replies "I don't know...but, I've already got a headache". <BG>

Jon, myself, and others would get in trouble for making, uhm, inappropriate jokes about many things back there on the grill. It was
a good time and we all had a good time doing a crappy job.

If you're doing any task or job where it's not fun and enjoyable,
then it's time to quit. That goes for hobbies as well...considering
you and I have 2 things in common...BBSing and amateur radio.

I love BK's original chicken sandwich plain with cheese. I also love
BK's French fries right out of the fryer without salt. Yum. Not good
for me but darn good-tasting.

I liked the original BK french fries...the McDonald's ones are better.
Many of the places use "Sea Salt" now instead of regular table salt. Also,
we'd have folks order french fries without salt, so they could get them
hot. They brought salt packets from home to salt them with.

Now, those with heart conditions are supposed to "take it easy" on the sodium. But, the processed foods (aka TV dinners) are drowning in it.
When Janice and I ordered out for pizza, she'd tell them "I want every
anchovy you have in the place!!", and I told her "You can have those
nasty things"...talk about a salt lick!!

After she died of a heart attack 3 weeks shy of our 4th anniversary
nearly 14 years ago, her Mom and Dad asked why I didn't try to stop
her on that...and I told them "You and I both tried that, telling
her to take it easy on the salt...and she just gave us 'the stink eye'".
She was also type 1 diabetic.

I remember some years ago when I was working at a BK here in Johnson
City on July 4. They had the original chicken sandwich for $1 ... we
sold over 5000 of those in an eight-hour span!

I was working at the BK in Little Rock when they sold hamburgers for
25 cents, in celebration of their 25th anniversary. I was on the closing
crew that night, and because I got out of there so late, I didn't go to
my college class the next day, as I was exhausted. Ironically, the BK
was right across the street from the college.

Like I said earlier in this packet, I gotta be careful with meats these days though Canadian bacon isn't too bad. Something I do like very
much on pizza is chorizo but that is in very limited amounts these
days. I like pineapple on my pizza too but I guess that makes me weird with some people (not that I'm not already).

You're the one who's eating it...so the heck with what other folks
think. :)

I haven't eaten yet and my stomach is yelling at me with the talk of
pizza ...

Yours and mine both. I have these 3 minute microwave pizzas from Kroger,
that are a quick fix.

The main reasons I'm answering QWK Mail at this hour, are that I had to
take an Ibuprofen, and with thunderstorms forecast later today (Saturday),
I'm going to be offline later today. Plus, some of the storms may be
severe, with tornadoes, large hail, damaging winds, flooding rain, and
intense lightning.

The 2021 tornado season is starting early, with that EF-3 tornado in Fultondale, Alabama (just north of Birmingham) that killed a young boy...
and an EF-0 tornado that hit the airport in Tallahassee, barely missing
the National Weather Service office and their Doppler radar.

A series of recent thunderstorms knocked out the radar at the National Weather Service at the North Little Rock airport, when it got hit by
lightning (that's at least the second time that has happened). Florida
may be the lightning capitol of the world, but Arkansas has to be a close second. One series of storms years ago, in Pulaski County (Little Rock)
there were over 500 lightning strikes in the county within an hour. That
was nearly 9 strikes every second!!

Here's a pizza I could see Kurt making as it seems this would be right
up his alley ... him being a Californian nonwithstanding ...

We won't hold that against him. <G>

As for Canadian bacon, it looks nothing like regular bacon. :P However,
I saw a "redneck COVID-19 mask"...made out of bacon strips. <G>

And, speaking of "redneck COVID-19", here's a "proven test" (I've posted
this in other echoes, so I apologize for any redundancy).

1) Get a bottle of your favorite wine.
2) Pour some in a glass.
3) Bring it up to your nose, and take a sniff.
4) If you can smell the fragrance, take a sip.

If you can taste it, you still have your sense of smell and taste, so
you're negative. Repeat as many times as needed. <G>

Jay,

I used to order from them, but the Italian food sets my acid reflux
off something fierce...even with prescription medicine.

... Side Effects Of This Medicine may include Death.

That's some heavy duty heartburn medication! ;)

Jeff Foxworthy did a video on YouTube with prescription side effects.
It didn't include "death", but it had practically everything else.

It started with him noting that his wife is appparently a
hypochondriac...as they were watching Dateline one night. He
said that 3 people on the entire planet have a certain disease,
and his wife is one of them.

She was panicking, saying "I have every one of those symptoms".
He replied "You do not have testicular cancer". After the audience
roared in laughter, he added "you don't even have testiculars". <G>

He noted that "when I was growing up, the only 2 things that were
in the medicine cabinet were aspirin and Camphophenique". But now,
it's like the tagline below.

I was refering to better health wrt no aches or pains, and no
reliance of drugs to stave off the effects of "bad" eating.

I don't know when I'll drop dead, but it won't be because I
caused it from the foods that I eat. Meanwhile, I will not have
any physical ailments because of that either.

There were a number of years when I gradually started developing
some weird discomfort and pain in my knees and hips. Initially,
I thought it was my new normal as I was cruising through my 50s.
I had inconsistent bowel issues too and imagined the worst case
scenarios for that. I also was unable to raise one arm above
shoulder height without enduring a lot of pain. There was a
weird neurological thing that was happening - I was recording it
much like the Gordon character in Halt and Catch Fire.

Long story short.. I simply changed the way I ate, and the
problems went away.

So, until I drop dead, I'd rather feel comfortable without
excuses. ;)

Oh shoot. Are we talking about Grilled Cheese Sandwhiches now? One of my favo
ites, and something I can actually cook.

I was actually thinking of a hot ham and cheese but, yes, the classic
grilled cheese also would fall into this category!

I like to take real irish butter, smear it on the outside of the bread, then on
the inside add a thick slice of sharp cheddar, along with garlic powder, parsle
flakes, and some hot sauce. Close it up, sprinkle a bit of truffle salt on the
top, and throw it in the pan. Variations include adding a slice of Ham and a >Fried egg for the ultimate breakfast sandwhich.

Fried egg and chesse sandwich would also fall into this category. So much better when grilled. That description you give of your grilled chesse
sandwich sounds like a good one!

Title: ASPARAGUS WITH RED PEPPER SAUCE
Categories: Diabetic, Side dish, Vegetables
Yield: 4 Servings

1 lb Asparagus Stalks;
3 lg Large Red Peppers
3 1/2 tb Olive Oil
1 tb Balsamic Vinegar
(you might want to try
Rice vingegar)
1/2 ts Fresh Thyme Leaves
Salt & Pepper

Peel the asparagus if necessary and cook the stalks in lightly salted
water for 4 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness, or until fork
tender but stiil firm. Drain under cold water and set the stalks
aside. Broil the peppers on all sides until lightly scorched. Place
the cooked peppers in a paper bag for 10 minutes. Remove the peppers
and peel off the skin. Cut open the peppers and remove the stem,
seeds and white flesh. Puree the peppers in the food processor. Mix
in the olive oil, Balsamic Vinegar and thyme. Taste for seasoning and
add salt and pepper if desired. Place equal amount of the puree on 4
serving dishes. Top with equal amounts of asparagus. Food Exchange
per serving: 1 VEGETABLE EXCHANGE + 1 FAT EXCHANGE (I would cut back
even more on the fat, only using what is neccesary...)

A few years back I was having some stomach issues and found that giving up gluten really helped. I lost a lot of weight and was back at the gym quite a bit, but holy hell was it a PITA to plan and prepare meals.

As you no doubt discovered, gluten is pretty much in EVERYTHING. We went out for sushi I was surprised to lean that soy sauce has gluten in it, who woulda thunk it?

After about two years I was tired of the whole thing, so decided to slowly reintroduce gluten and I was happy to find that I could tolerate it again.

Of course now I could really stand to loose 40 pounds, so maybe limiting it instead of eliminating it entirely could be an option.

I have enjoyed similar results by eating once a day and getting more

from my ideal weight but I have so much physical damage that even with
the weight loss, the pain is still there. My diabetic neuropathy is

Or "if it tastes good, spit it out". :P

I love redpepper jelly with bree. Never tried it with honey, next

My local goat farm (Harley Farms in Pescadero, CA) sells a habanero
jelly that pairs with their goat cheeses wicked awesome.

Yummm.
