Guest FourAces Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Sounds tasty but I wouldn't know as I wasn't invited to dinner Quote
TotallyOz Posted January 20, 2013 Author Posted January 20, 2013 I am just dipping my toes in the Veggie food this week. I had Bean Dip and Salsa and chips for lunch today and PB and Banana Sandwich for breakfast. LOL Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Oh my Oz hat sounds so yummy.. Maybe that's why you are so hot! Quote
AdamSmith Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 hito, I'm not sure he meant that literally about the toes. Sorry. Quote
Members RA1 Posted January 21, 2013 Members Posted January 21, 2013 Its not wine making, is it? Best regards, RA1 AdamSmith 1 Quote
Members TampaYankee Posted January 21, 2013 Members Posted January 21, 2013 Where's the beef? I avoid food counterfeit products like vegetable chili. Yecht!!! Now if you call it bean soup and throw a ham hock in it then I'm buyin'. I won't even tolerate sausage, burgers, bacon, ham and the like made from feathered creatures. It ain't natural. Quote
Members wayout Posted January 21, 2013 Members Posted January 21, 2013 I've never used a pressure cooker but over the last month or so I've been starting to use a slow cooker (crock pot). I really find it an easy way to make soups, stews, chilis, gumbos, etc. The veggie chili does sound quite delicious. I love to try new variations of old standards, and I will definitely give this a try. I do notice that many of the veggie recipes I find rely on using a lot of beans. I love beans but the side effects can be quite annoying at times AdamSmith 1 Quote
Members dishyb Posted January 17, 2021 Members Posted January 17, 2021 It work well to cook chicken soup Quote
Torharvi Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 I am liking my instapot. Meal planning for the week made easy! Quote
TotallyOz Posted February 8, 2021 Author Posted February 8, 2021 I believe in the Zombie Apocalypse. Or, Covid19 or something. Like a good Southern boy, I stock up on food when I think there is going to be a snowstorm. Last year I bought more frozen chicken than I can to discuss. I have been slowly using it in my Instapot. This week, I put the chick in the Instapot for 15 min with water and a bag of soup mix and do the pressure cooker setting. I then use it to make fried rice with chicken with some eggs and veggies. Yummy! And, it last for 2 days. Slowly, all my chicken is disappearing from the freezer and going to good use. Quote
seajoc2 Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 just made an awesome cheesecake in the Instapot. Quote
