Post Up What You Had For Dinner

[Anti-hero]

The beans are real creamy
Not like lima beans on rice
Red beans and rice
Is standard Monday lunch in the big easy.
White beans and rice with fish on Fridays
Any cafe worth it's salt
That's on the specials off the day

I'm.with you too on that
The chicken spicy
And the beans and rice
The rest of that crap
Is not Cajun food

[BamaPainGurl]

Well I ordered a half smoked chicken with white sauce made famous by Big Bob Gibson right down the road from me, literally. Hubs also picked up a pound of pulled BBQ and two qts of Brunswick stew. Because my stomach is so sick, I'm sticking with stew and crackers right now. Slowly... Here's hoping it stays. I've also got a fever and I'm wondering if the meat in the wonton soup last night wasn't bad. It was kind of off but I thought that was lack of meds. Now not so sure. Gonna stay hydrated and eat slow. Enjoy you're dinners everyone, I'm gonna tolerate mine.

What is Brunswick stew?

We just had avocado and feta cheese sammiches
Cuz hero deemed it
Do "fuck all" day
Oh he had him a chocolate pop tart for dessert

[Zoops]

Brunswick Stew is the bomb! It's like a seafood cream sauce based stew with fish in it, usually served over flaky pastry-type biscuits.

Did I get that right Bamagurl?

I also love me some creamy and spicy seafood dishes over pasta like a Cajun shrimp alfredo over some linguine. The sauce should come out sort of pinkish if you make it right.

Last night for dinner I had a bowl Udon noodle/vegetable soup with a bowl of sweet baked beans on the side.

[BamaPainGurl]

Well Brunswick is different wherever you are. Yes, Zoops where you are the stew would be seafood based cause that's the most available protein. Ours was made with pulled pork BBQ with a tomato sauce and vegetables. You eat it with biscuits,cornbread or like we did oyster crackers. I really miss all the crab based recipes up that way. I have a pound of lump crab in the freezer screaming at me to make a bisque with. Think I'll get the heavy cream while I'm out today. Yummm!

Didn't eat last night but my neighbor down the hall went on a fishing trip and gave me
cod and sea bass. I'll have that tonight. I'm going to rub olive oil, garlic and sprinkle some
bread crumbs. Nommy!

[Daughter of Dionysus (OP)]

Since my BAE is a super picky eater
I made crabcakes again tonight for dinner
With farm fresh green beans
Some french bread and swiss cheese

I don't mind having the same thing twice in the same week
Especially when it's so simple and so good

We are overstocked on crab meat

There are 2 things hero hates
So do I to possibly a lesser extent
One is big chain stores
Like Wal Mart
And the meat sections in said stores
Every, Every time we HAVE to go into one
He has this whole rant he goes on
About how they are EVERYTHING that is wrong with America
It can be quite amusing
But I'm sure I can recite it word for word

So yeah fuck all them
Capitalist Churches
That feed peoples addictions
And get away with it b\c they have the money to pay off congress
(Part of the rant)
If you wanna hear the rest
You bring him to Wal Mart

Hubs asked for a recipe he found on allrecipes today, called "Burrito Pie".
It's very easy and very tasty. Essentially ground chuck browned with onion and garlic (I added a bit of extra chili powder) then add a can of rotel, a big can of refried beans and a 16 Oz jar of taco sauce (whatever heat level you prefer). Simmer this 20 min or so.
It calls for a 4qt casserole but I don't have one so I used my 9 by 11 casserole. Worked fine.
You then put a base layer of meat mixture, then layer flour tortillas, more meat, shredded cheese. Keep layering and top with cheese. Put in 350° oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until cheese is melted and it's all bubbly. Then top with whatever you like. Sour cream, jalepenos, lettuce or whatever sounds yummy.

We really enjoyed it and it was an easy one for me, always a plus.
Guess the crab will wait till I can stand and babysit a bisque and not burn it.

My Mom makes that
It is good
One year for my volleyball team luncheon
She made it
And everyone loved it

I think I'm gonna make
A corn crab bisque
With some of the lump crab we have frozen
I LOVE corn crab bisque
Hero taught me his Grandma's recipe
It's soooo good I could bathe in it
It's like the perfect time of year
For a nice thick bisque

With the things hero does know how to cook
He kills it
A lot of people have told him
That he should open a restaurant
He won't
B/c then it would become work

That does sound good I might try it with ground turky
thats as far as we go on the ground meat.
Its great for zattarans dirty rice
you are lucky to live in zatterans country
we find there products once in a while.

Crab boil we never find and I have to have it shipped
I use it to fry chicken
Its poppeys secret recipe(gotta keep that quiet tho)

[BamaPainGurl]

Love zattarains! I have a box of crab boil in the cupboard.  I do a low country boil here though, with crawfish. Can't get blue crab here, makes me sad. But the Frogmire stew is excellent 😉!

And next time I make the Burrito pie, I believe I'm going to get a box of Spanish rice and mix it in.. I think it needs better binder. And I like rice in my burritos too, so why not?

[Daughter of Dionysus (OP)]

We like the liquid crab boil

Rice would be hella good
In the burrito pie

[Narkotikon]

Last night:

Pot roast made with a very lean sirloin top round roast, potatoes, carrots, beef stock, one of those Knorr beef concentrated stock things, red wine, garlic, salt, pepper. 

The potatoes were extremely brown and tasty. 

Tonight:

Beer battered fish, seasoned fries, lima beans, and some chocolate iced cream.  Will have it later.  I have odd dinner times. 

................................................

The Brunswick stew sounds similar to Lobster Newburg.  It's kinda a thick lobster stew, with a sauce made of lobster, sherry, shallots / leeks, and other things.  Then you serve it in puff pastry cups.  Very, very yummy.  If you like lobster bisque, you'd love Lobster Newburg. 



......................................................

So crab boil seasoning in the chicken breading.  Popeyes does that?  I wondered what they used.  Sounds good.  I'll have to try it some time. 

When you say crab boil seasoning, do you mean something like Old Bay seasoning?  That stuff is really good. 

I dunno if you have a Krogers around you Hero and DoD, but ours sells Zatarain's stuff.  Like boxed rice mixes, some condiments, other things.  I like their yellow rice mix.  It's rice, vegetables, and some type of seasoning that makes it yellow.  I'd like to say it's saffron, but I'm betting it's much cheaper tumeric.  Still good though.  I used to make a one-pot, baked chicken dish using that, other seasonings, sauteed onions and garlic, and some heavy cream when I lived alone.
