Went to costco

[Christ...@deathtochristianity.pl]

They did not have my favorite lentil thin cakes and it has been
several weeks since they last had some. I ended up getting like a 3
pound bag of tortilla strips and a double salsa.

I made a sauce if you want to call it that, just using mayo and those
bread and butter chips dipped my tortilla strips in that and it was
pretty damn good actually.
Then I went to Albertans and much to my sup rise they had some nice
sized pineapples for 1 dollar each.
Freakin amazing
I bought 4.... the limit was 2 so I had to re enter the store and get
2 more

I went back after skinning 2 of then and putting them in the air fryer
to dehydrate and they were freaking all gone.... I will most likely go
back tomorrow and see if they got any in yet.

Tonight I plan on eating left over sesame chicken with soy noodles.

I was about to discuss the things you have been/are making but ..

I am afraid the above put me right off. I you deliberately trying to
alienate posters here?

That Mayo and sweet pickles minced is a good one we do all the time.
Basically it's ersatz tartar sauce.

We spent most of yesterday at the hospital. Don was getting a heart
cath with possible stents, but the test showed he's fine.

The hospital food was better than average at the little cafe and he was
allowed to eat as soon as he came out of recovery.

Dinner was sticky rice with steamed shrimp in the steamer top and a
cabbage, onion, carrot, red bell pepper, olive oil and garlic stir fry.
Grapes at the side.

I also made up a bean pot with great northerns, navy beans, chopped ham
steak, garlic, smoked black pepper, and the last of the home made pork
broth (leftover bones with scraps of meat simmered down to a reasonable
broth). Made up coleslaw as well.

Savory Coleslaw:

3 cups rough chopped head green cabbage
1 cup rough chopped head purple cabbage (just for looks)
1/2 cup shaved carrot peels
1/3 cup green onion tops (from the garden, can use minced regular onion)
1/2-3/4 cup hellmans mayo (to your liking)
1 Tablesoon prepared mustard (I used a grainy sort but yellow will do)
Scant dusting of garlic salt **

**the only salt added in any of the above meals.

All sounds jolly good to me:)) I am glad that Don is ok! Hope that
continues!

I spent 3 months in a hospital, I quite liked the food. It was however
before I realized that I was gluten intolerant.

Made 3 fresh jars of pineapple jam. I must eat 2-3 24 oz jars of that
stuff every month

Tonight I think I am going to try and make a new recipe for pineapple
chicken using some of the jam I have.

College days back in the 70's actually. I get the random premade
tartar sauce but mine is fine.

Try a dusting of garlic powder mixed in. Not too much or will overpower
it. Duke's Mayo works best for it but it's not available everywhere.
It's like a tart Hellman's if never tried it.

This one, Sentara Beach General (Virginia Beach) is actually supposed
to have pretty good food but the Cafe downstairs for visitors was
relatively bland per Don. The fruit cups and salad bar looked good
though.

Gluten issues eh? A lot of people seem to have that now. Do you bake?
If so I have a really easy spelt recipe for a bread machine that might
work for you. Spelt is an ancient cultivar wheat (not for celiacs). A
simpler gluten formation and not as high rise but works nicely.

I saw. Good price though the air fryer use confused me a little.
Those new 'insta-cook' type things seem to do jams as well. If you used
the air fryer, perhaps it was a partial cook and dehydrate then mixed
with sugar for a jam?

Love to see it! I'm afraid I am a chile pepper wimp if it has that.
It's not that I don't like hot, it's that they don't like me much
(grin).

Finally made a fast trip to the grocery and will add my findings in a
message shortly.

dont bake really. ... I can not have any gluten.

the actual jam is made in a pot on a stove, with pineapples and apples
and cinnamon and sugar.

after the jam is put in the jars I then put them all in my airfryer
oven to preserve the jam.

That would put me off for sure!

I had a dip at a party that I loved. Start with cottage cheese. Add chopped
purple onion, black pepper and grated sharp cheddar. Whiz with an immersion
blender. This was served with black bread. I can't get that here. At least I
haven't seen it. I have served it with crackers, cocktail rye but mostly
veggies. Really good stuff.

Oh his mayo-pickle is fine. Not what I'd use on chips but I use it on

I think awhile back you told me that you like the mayo and sweet

Well I tried that just a few minutes ago and I was impressed. It was
very good.

Don't forget to try fries with ice cream. It's what the kids are into these days. I tried it but didn't care much for it - I have very sensitive taste buds.

Kids these days? I was dipping fries in a DQ chocolate shake in the
early sixties. I ought to do it again. All I have to do it think about
it. That taste goes right along with greasy bagged Planters Peanuts
from a vending machine in a bottled Coke. Mmmmmm.
Try dipping a fry in a chocolate shake and tell me you hate it. That's
a *chocolate shake*.

That won't last with "kids today." I tried that as a kid. Ok once
in a while but nothing super good. What I did was dip very crisp
salty fries (McDonalds) into soft serve vanilla in a cone.

[Jinx the Minx]

That was a standard school day lunch in the late 70’s/early 80’s as well. A
combo that has stood the test of time!

[Jinx the Minx]

Thad’s because it needs to *chocolate* ice cream!

[dsi1]

Ah, you were a trendsetter. The thought of dipping fries in ice cream never entered my brainpan. The first time I saw someone doing that I was amused. The second time, puzzled. The third time I realized that something was going on. Ha ha, it takes me a while to spot these trends.
