Watcha eating?

[DABSGT]

Tonight some rappini (broccoli rabe) and sausage cooking it now. My wife likes it in a fresh roll, my daughters over pasta, me as is with a little hot pepper and sharpe cheese. I would add a glass of red wine but snow falling and tractor calling.

My wife is making her version of a cobb salad for us all tonight.

BACON, hard boiled fresh eggs from our chickens, turkey she roasted yesterday, avocado, tomato, green onions, chopped romaine and some other stuff (green stuff and I eat it if it has blue cheese dressing on it...)

I'm working on a sale to OZ right now, and I've got a Yuengling Black & Tan assisting me in processing this quote so I can email it to the customer tonight...

Might need some more assistance soon... :drink:

David, and the rest of you guys who eat salads and other "green stuff", I quit buying lettuce for salads a long time ago. Instead of overpriced lettuce that wilts and turns mushy after a few days in the fridge, I chop up a head of red or green cabbage. You get a lot more product for the money, cabbage tastes better, stores much longer, and has more "crunch" plus the nutritional value is higher. Another thing, out of season here, I never buy the overpriced and tasteless carpet scraps sold as fresh tomatoes, for a salad I buy canned diced tomatoes. They cost less and taste a lot better plus there is no waste.

Bill,

The wife does 90% of the shopping and she buys some pretty decent rabbit food al things considered. She shops the local farmer's markets and specialty shops, and even at the big stores she buys only the organic etc. good stuff.

The only thing that ever seems to go bad in the fridge is she gets these 3 packs of english cucumbers, and there is often a sloppy chunk of that buried in a drawer in the fridge.

She uses Romaine and spinach in most of our salads.

Last nights was very, VERY tasty. NO restaurant can give ma a salad as good as my wife does.

She also does theb salad bar style, so I can overload on tomatoes, and meat, and olives, green onions, etc...

If you Really want kick your Big Green Egg a notch try adding a BBQ Guru to it. You can control the temp and meat temps. I would not be without mine.

Interesting point. In most northern European countries, "salad" has no lettuce in it at all. Wonderful varieties of chopped veggies with meat or egg or other ingredients and varied dressings are both more nutritious and interesting than a plain lettuce based salad.

Regarding fresh tomatoes, I stopped eating those except mid summer a long time ago. Cannot stand the "cello" tomatoes. Grape tomatoes are mostly good year round but the bigger ones are for me at least just a mid summer treat.

Agree with the "store bought" tomato comment. Simply no taste to them. I like the grape tomatoes, they last a relatively long time if you can store them in the refrigerator.

it's hard to find anyone who don't love bacon.many years ago we could get from our local store a canadian bacon called [sizzlelean] it had no fat and had a great taste, not been able to find it in year's no one knows what i'm talking about when i ask.have you heard of it or tried it.

I remember Sizzlean. The fat is the lure to the true bacon taste, mess with that and your taste buds will be disappointed. It was out in the late 70's It did have fat, but 50% less than bacon. Most people would consider it too dry but I liked it.
Move Over Bacon, There
