Now if I could just differentiate between fever and hot flashes. *sigh*
Priscilla, heading towards mending
So glad you're on the mend and hope the antiviral packs a good punch. I'm
drooling at the description of the fritata.Mmmmm, can you post the recipe?
Roseanne
Slice some red onion. Pour a glug of EVOO into a hot cast iron frying
pan. Toss in sliced onion. Add sliced mushrooms and bits of colored
pepper. Saute. Toss in chunks of left over baked potato. Turn and
heat. Season. Add some leftover chopped spinach. Beat up a couple of
eggs and pour over contents of pan. Lay muenster cheese on top. Put
under broiler for 5 minutes. Voila!
I've been doing a lot of fritatas for breakfast lately instead of
omelets. They're a great way of using up left over vegies or what have
you.
Priscilla
Ummm, what's EVOO?
Roseanne
glad you are mending. now i am very hungry...

I was wondering, too. Thought maybe it was something from a speciality food
shop...

Such a simple answer, after all - & something sitting right in my pantry

Yeah. She seems too flighty to me to be a serious cook.
Priscilla
In this pareticular case, the problem is that I don't watch the cooking
channel at all...
Cathy
Not to mention that I spelled/typed "particular" incorrectly! ;-)

I'll have to look for her. I used to love the Two Fat Ladies, except
there weren't enough shows over here and very soon it was all reruns. I
also love ... oh, damn! I've forgotten his name. French, has a
daughter named Claudine who's very pretty but not very obviously smart.
For a while his show (on PBS) was with her. Ah! Jacques Pepin! J'aime
Jacques Pepin! He team taught some cooking classes with Julia Child
through BU -- big bucks kinda things, not serious chef training. I kept
being tempted and then reminding myself I could use that $100 or $200
for much better purposes. Plus there was always wine tasting involved,
and I didn't see the point of spending money and time on something I
wouldn't participate in. I couldn't bring a "designated sipper." :-(
Priscilla
I at least know anout her; my BIL, who's a serious hobbyist cook, asked for
a cookbook by her a couple of Christmases ago.
Cathy
LOL! I don't do Perky myself but i have to admit
i often get a kick out of her perkiness. Sometimes
i need to hang out and watch someone who has
a cheerful positive approach to life - since i sure don't!

In her defense, i want to say that she doesn't take
herself seriously as a chef or anything either.
She guested on one of the chef shows and she was
joking around about how "I'm not a chef, i just cook!"

Her food is heavy on the white flour, carbs and pasta.
But i actually -- maybe because i'm an anti-cooking
person -- i find her stuff useful *if* it take it cafeteria style
and modify it for my use. I really like the 30-minute
concept. Tho i like take-out better!
Oh, and this is all about the 30-Minute Meals show,
since i never watch her -- or any other -- talk show.

Hers is the only cooking program I have ever actually watched a whole
episode of (two episodes, actually). I have never been attracted to
cooking shows, but I like Nigella's style: She acts like a real person
in a real kitchen. Meaning: She licks bowls and fingers. :-) She's the
only cook who has made me feel normal.

The only one of her shows I caught was one where the segment was called
'Better Than Nothing Workouts', for the lazy... er, I mean, unmotivated
among us. :-)

I like the scientific spirit - the holding off, the being sure but not
too sure, the willingness to surrender ideas when the evidence is against
them: This is ultimately fine - it always keeps the way open.
