Post your kickass recipes here!

[Abraham Smashington]

Thanks. And spam shit on FB dammit. I do alot of spamming as it is, but maybe if some of you are like "Hey guise, BDR is pretty neat and their forum is fun and they have occasionally funny podcasts you should check out" then we'd have more people haha.

Lisa,

The only way to do it, is to just do it. Be bold and daring in the kitchen! That's when you make meals worth remembering.

Thanks, Vin and Guyez, but the problem in this apartment is it's horribly ill-equipped for cooking. There's no counter space, the oven sucks, and it's just not workable. I actually did do quite a lot of cooking in my old apartment, because the kitchen, while small, was really great.

I'll make promises of hookers and blow, but if anyone shows up wanting fulfillment I'm putting it back on you Rob!

[IggytheBorg]

WTF kind of recipers are YOU cooking?!

[Chris Miller]

Per Lisa's request-

Maryland Style Vegetable and Sausage Soup

1 Pound Breakfast Sausage (patties, or whole crumbly, not links)
1 Bag frozen mixed veggies (corn, carrots, peas, green beans, lima beans)
3 small red potatos chopped
1 yellow onion, diced
2 small cans tomato sauce
2 tablespoons tomato paste
Old Bay Seasoning

In a big soup pot, sweat the onion, then add in the sausage and cook until browned. Add in all other ingredients, then about 4 cups of water ( I say about, but, you know, add water until it looks like soup, not a big mess of veggies and pork).

Season liberally with Old Bay, I use about 3 tablespoons. Bring everything to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer about 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Enjoy!

Saw this recipe at the store today, and made it for dinner. Very good.

Green Chile Mac n Cheese

Ingredients
16oz Mac Pasta
Monterey Jack Cheese
1 to 1-1/2lbs ground beef
24oz Tomatillo Salsa with Green Chiles
1/2 cup whipping cream
1lb Velveeta cut to small cubes

Directions
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees

Brown the ground beef in a skillet and put the pasta on the stove top to cook

While the beef/pasta are going cut the Velveeta down to cubes

Once the ground beef is browned and you've drained the grease add the Velveeta to the skillet and melt it into the beef. Once the Velveeta has melted down into the ground beef add the tomatillo salsa and green chiles to the skillet.

Put the pasta into your glass baking pan (greased slightly) and even it. Add the skillet's content to the pan once it is warmed to your liking. You may want to mix it all up a bit once it is in the pan so the salsa gets all through the pasta and you don't have dry spots.

Top off with the monterey jack cheese, and put it in the oven for about 15-18 minutes.

NOM.

It's supposed to feed 8, but it's easily more like 10-12 servings. I had two and am miserable, and Brittany had 1. We have more than 3/4 of our Pyrex still filled with this stuff.

Totally going to make that fucking mac and cheese. Ungh.

Can a brotha get a good, semi-swanky mashed potato recipe?

I could also swing for any non-Thanksgiving standard dessert recommendations - I'm making both for a friend's Thanksgiving shindig and I'm 99% sure people are going to bring pies and shit.

[I_Cassini]

I have some good ones that I can post when I get home Jake-I dont know if you would consider them non-traditional or not- I have a Rocky Road cheesecake thats always a win- and a man that can make a cheesecake- SCORE!

I don't have a recipe but you reminded me of excellent mashed potatoes I had once in Tucson. They added prickley pear cactus juice to it - it turned them kind of purple and they were delicious...

[BillyG]

Jake, I've asked my sister for her super insane skeetskeetskeet mashed potato recipe. I will return on the morrow.

[BillyG]

OK, she just emailed with a quickness. Quote:

"its mashed taters... butter, sour cream, bacon , chives, salt, pepper and cheeseall to taste"

Goddamn I wanna make this NOW.

[IggytheBorg]

Boil 2-4 cloves peeled garlic with the potatoes, and mash them with the taters as well. While mashing, stir in your favorite blue cheese to taste, and a little milk or cream for added moisture. The cheese isn't really that noticeable, so don't worry too much about overdoing it.

CAME SO HOARD

I really need to create a mashed tater recipe that is better than Lesley's. Her's is too awesome though.

[I_Cassini]
