Chicken parmesan??

I think so! My mind went blank, and I couldn't remember what it was I ordered

 

[GVF]

OK. I had intended to take a pic, but when my plate got full, my mouth got open...But I spent a bit of time in the kitchen yesterday and was hungry.

Blackened Catfish filets, with a zesty salad shrimp and asparagus white wine cream sauce. Homemade red beans and rice. Cornbread ho cakes.

But do you make SWEET cornbread?

To NOT make sweet cornbread leads to eternal damnation.

 

[GVF]

Ok. Glad I don’t have to put you on ignore.

Hold on there. Sweet cornbread has a calling. Most recipes do have a couple tablespoons atleast. But, a true sweet cornbread specifically goes on the menu for BBQ.

In the 70s, there was a bbq restaurant on the east side of Nashville which featured hoecakes (aka Johnny cakes) - simple, savory cornmeal griddle cakes. They also offered white beans as a side.

I make those a bit. I add onion, sweet corn, and paprika to my batter.

The sweet cornbread that I’ve had and hated has gooeyness, like there was syrup or something in there.

Maybe honey on top and baked in, but that's not a real southern sweet cornbread. A Hickory BBQ hole in the wall I frequented in Abilene, TX made the corn ear shaped sweet cornbread sticks to perfection to go with their BBQ. Should have same moist texture as regular cornbread. Only enough sugar to get to to the sweet side, but not pastry sweet. I've been known to heat mine with butter and drizzle honey on it, but it should not come out of the oven that way. I will also make cornbread with creamed corn and it will be moist and barely a tad sweet, but that's not a sweet cornbread.

I’ll need to try that creamed corn version. I bought three cans by accident (na fan of creamed corn) and have been trying to figure what to do with it.

Know the feeling. Wish I could answer why food is so tempting three hours after supper

I always use a can in my cornbread recipe.

Also just cooking can on the stove top, I use one can cream corn, and one can whole kernel (drained). With a pat of butter. Fresh corn, I slice off the kernels, drag the cob with a knife to get as much milk as possible, add finely diced bell pepper and onion and fry in skillet with a little butter, salt, and pepper. Skillet fried corn will change your life.

I love peppers and sausage like that, but I will have to try your spice compliment next time I fix it. Xtra points for the iron skillet.

 

[Vjcvette]

KFC is the best for now imo

Hey thanks for the tip, I will have to try one!

We are early yesterday and today, just because of my wife in and out of sleep after surgery. There's a chic fil a right here close to our hotel, and I've done decided to go get milkshakes in a little bit!

 

[joevol33]

Swordfish, mashed potatoes, and broccoli.

I usually do it in pasta sauce, but we were out. So I just cut up some tomatoes and threw in with the sauce.

Chicken Shawarma plate from Fresh Bites Lebanese restaurant in Tampa.

It's just a personal preference. Wasn't attacking you or anything. Sorry if it came across that way. Personally I think it's the worst pizza of any of the major pizza chains. Their ingredients are the lowest quality of almost all the major chains. I don't know if it's something in their sauce or what, but every time I have eaten it (been years since I have had it) I have thrown up. The only food allergy that I have is to mushrooms and they make me feel the same way. Swore off of it years ago.

I tried a thin crust from dominoes today. Little Ceasars is better.

 

[VolNExile]

Spinach and three-cheese tortellini with (additional) baby spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, Parmesan, basil pesto, and a shredded chicken breast.

You misspelled Dr. Pepper.

you mean that secret recipe soda they make from a stale coke cooked in a used Goodyear tire from the landfill steeped in my old socks from high school? It was too long to spell out.
