SUPPER CLUB - Fri, Jan 2nd
Posted: Fri Jan 02, 2015 12:59 am
Good Morning!
37* and rainy again this morning. I know most of you are colder than that, but you're SUPPOSED to be cold! I'm supposed to be wearing shorts and shades and sipping maragritas!
TINA - thank you for posting that photo yesterday. That Cindy is a wicked one, is she not?? Those shrimp LOOKED good, but that's as far as they went. They still taste like shrimp! Double ick!
JANA - lol!! I doubt Bill has even heard of Pinterest! He saw this recipe on Facebook. We tried it last night and it was pretty good.
IRISH - you're tough to stay up until midnight. Of course, midnight comes sooner on the east coast so you don't have to stay awake as long. ;o]
That recipe for cube steak was simple: I used four cube steaks but the recipe called for a "family pack". I seared mine first because I prefer meat already browned before putting it in the crockpot, but that's not necessary. I also seasoned them with S&P. the sauce was 2 cans of Cream of Mushroom soup, 1 envelope onion soup mix, and 3/4 water. poured that over the steaks, wiggled them around a bit to get them all juicy and I cooked them for four hours. you might want to cook them longer if you cook more. They were very tender and it was a good gravy. We had mashed potatoes and black=eyed peas with it.
Tonite's supper will be more of the same. Though Cindy and I will probably drag our DH's on a F.A.R.T. to the two LQS's within 10 miles of here and finish off with a late lunch at Souper Salad, a great buffet place, so that may fill us up for supper. And there are outlet stores here, too, Where I need to pick up a birthday present for Autumn. So if we haven't killed off poor Cindy and her hip/knee by then I will stop and pick that up, too. And if she wants to swing by Hobby Lobby, we can do that, too. So we'll have a full day and there'll be no time for cooking!
Hope your day is so full of great things that you won't be cooking either!
