SUPPER CLUB - Wed, Jan 14th, 2015

[purrfect-lady]

I had to write '2015' in the topic, just to do it. I need the practice!

To go back to Foxy riding in the trailer - he does well. But I never said he enjoyed it! lol!

IRISH - glad you liked Bill's recipe for cube steaks. Certainly easy!

Some of you don't know what chili rellenos are?? Even a bad chili relleno is better than most other food! First of all, most true Mexican food is NOT spicy. It becomes spicy only if you choose to add spicy things to it. I'm not sure what kind of chili Tina uses, but they are green and about 5 or 6 inches long. She buys them fresh and freezes them for when I stop in for dinner. She inserts a "log" of white cheese (Mozzarella?) and a 'log' of cheddar into the chili, dips them in batter with a lot of egg in it, and fries them. You could add condiments as you wish - salsa, sour cream, guacamole, red or green sauce, etc. 'Relleno' is pronounced ree-AY-no.

We will be at our friends' in Yuma tonite and I suspect we will either eat with them or go to a restaurant for supper. Maybe pizza? I don't really know. But now that I've said it "out loud", pizza sounds good to me!

How are your supper plans coming along?

Mary--Tina's chiles relleños are like almost all of them I've ever had. I've never found one I didn't like. There was a Mexican restaurant in Chanute, years and years ago, that made theirs using a regular green pepper like a sweet pepper rather than poblano peppers. They had meat and cheese in theirs. They were much like American stuffed peppers except they were battered and fried. I liked them, too. One of the few things I don't like in Mexican food is menudo. Yuck!

Of course, we are back to --anything battered and deep fried is better! Even fried ice cream!

Pizza sounds wonderful! It sounds good ANY night. Maybe that's what I'll make here. Pepperoni for DH and veggie for me.

Here's the recipe if you want it ) Not sure if you can get the cheese I use, it's Asadero cheese, it's the white cheese, I use it in place of the Monterey-Jack cheese plus I use cheddar in each too.
1/2 pound cheese
6 whole green chile-fresh or canned
2 eggs separated
2 Tablespoons flour
1 Tablespoon oil

Cut 6 pieces of cheese (if using 2 kinds cut 6 of each) 1' wide 1/2' thick and the length of the chile
Make a small slit in top of chile (usually has this) and insert cheese, try to get the cheese down as far as you can.
Beat egg white until stiff. Beat egg yolks and flour together (I add a very small amount of water to it's not so thick), fold into the egg whites. Dip the cheese stuffed chile into the egg mixture 1 at a time and then lay onto hot griddle that has a small amount of oil so they don't stick. Fry until golden brown, turn over and fry untill golden brown again ) eat em up, they are yummy!

I get mild to medium chile here, I used to make them with Hatch Whole canned green chile. Fresh/frozen does make a difference.

We're going to have leftover red chile meat tonight and the last of the rellenos )

Good afternoon from, still darn cold, Sw. Pa....Maybe if I'd have some "hot" Mexican food, I'd warm up, lol....

Mary, you've convinced me, I need to try them....Really does sound yummy....

Tina, you've really convinced me I need to try them, but I think you have to make them for me.....You know, Becca, Chickie and I will be dropping in 1 of these days.....

Chickie, You like that hot food? My Kevin and his 2 boys eat all that really hot stuff...For Christmas, I gave him an assortment of hot sauces....Just looking at the containers made my tummy hurt, lol.....

With all the talk of pizza, that might be the order of the day, get it "order".....I probably have pizza dough hidden in the freezer but that sounds like too much work...Pizza Hut and I are on 1st name basis.....

So, that's settled
Happy eating................

Tina—thank you for the recipe! Yum!!! I’ll have to make them for ME!

I have pizza in the oven—homemade whole wheat crust. A thin veggie pizza for me, and a thick pepperoni pizza for DH. They will soon be ready.

Irish—I have Pizza Hut on my speed dial for those times when I’m coming home from out of town and want to pick up dinner on the way home. It’s usually chicken, pizza or Chinese.

Becca—I made beans yesterday. I dump a package of beans in my roaster pan (blue granite), add chopped onion, ham and seasonings, then bake it at 250 for hours until it’s done. I used to put them in the oven in the morning before I left for work at 225 and let them simmer until I arrived back home. I don’t soak my beans.

I need to change the pizzas on the racks... Happy eating!

Tonight I made cauliflower soup with some buttered (the real stuff) bread.

Yummy.........
