I screwed up and kept buying large slicing tomatoes. Now I have too many.
What would you do with them?
I remember making a recipe from The Two Fat Ladies for stuffed tomatoes done
in the oven. I used smaller tomatoes. I had red, orange and yellow ones.
Can't remember now what I stuffed them with. I do remember that nobody
really liked them but me. Odd thing is that my Italian and not particularly
picky eater doesn't really care for tomatoes, raw or cooked. Angela has only
recently started eating them. Or I should say eating them and liking them.
Tomatoes seem to be like peas. People either love them or hate them!
I have an assortment of sliced cheeses from Sam's. I was thinking of making
one of those simple salads of tomato slices with red onion slices where you
sort of overlap them then season with salt and pepper but working some
cheese slices in between.
Any other ideas? I may be able to use the oven as it is supposed to cool off
some in the upcoming days.

Yes. But I don't want to make that because nobody but me liked them. And I
suspect that I couldn't eat them now.

If you still can't use them all up, wash them well and throw them in a bag and freeze them.
They will taste great in tomato sauce or soup. And the peels slide right off when they
they thaw out.

missed it she never bothered to replace it. Even if she had, she's the
queen of searching out expiration dates and throwing out food. Heh.
She did add a nice looking porch to the back of her house along with a
somewhat useless and not very pretty fire-pit in her back yard.

I have canned stewed. Not sure these are the right type for those. If I were
growing them and had an ton, I might make those. It's all turning out to be
a moot point anyway. Two already eaten. More will be eaten with the burgers.

My freezers are very full ATM as I did a huge shop yesterday, plus a

immediately reply she can't, won't, couldn't, wouldn't... for whatever

ate two of them.
My first thought would be why buy large tomatoes if that's not what you
wanted in the first place? I don't know about you but I don't buy
anything I don't already have some use for.

I didn't think they would eat them this fast because for one thing, husband

hot sauce collection was the worst - but only one or two were
purchased by me. My son would bring over a new hot sauce whenever we
were cooking food like tacos and not take it home with him so I ended
up with something like 6 or 8 bottles (all different brands). I
solved my hot sauce problem by gathering up what I didn't want to keep
and sending them home with him. End of story.
Julie could have solved her excess tomato problem by grating them and
making a no-cook tomato sauce that she could always freeze if she
didn't want to use it immediately.

I was recently gifted some large scallop baking shells. I've always
wanted to but have never made Coquilles St. Jacques. I've already
Googled for recipes but when the time comes I'll likely ask if anyone
here has a tried & true recipe before deciding which one to try. :)

as anyone else of picking apart her posts. Mea culpa. Then again, I
don't usually post about something like needing new measuring cups. If
I need them I just buy them. What's the point in announcing it? Then
she gets upset with thread drift when people start discussing different
types of measuring cups.
I DO appreciate many of the suggestions I've picked up reading RFC over
the years. I bought a nice instant-read thermometer based on some
recommendations posted here. I freeze corn on the cob without blanching
it first based on a suggestion I read here. If you cull through the
posts there are still gems of wisdom, recipes and helpful suggestions.

No but somebody keeps moving stuff in the fridge. I have had so many people
in and out of here and so many using the kitchen, I have no clue who did it.
Also couldn't find the hamburger dills because someone draped an almost
empty bag of shredded cheese across them.
I try to keep the fridge well organized but with a bunch of teens running
and and grabbing stuff to take to the fire pit, that's hard to do.
I am down to a manageable level of food now and will buy nothing more than
chicken strips and perhaps some bread.
We've got chilly weather starting tomorrow. I can use the oven and take a
few things from the freezer. Like meatloaf.

I noticed while I was making dinner tonight that I have two backup

A cup by volume is a cup regardless of what you put in it, ffs. Is that so
hard to understand?
It's not liquid vs dry. It's volume vs weight. I'd like to see anyone weigh

return it, even if it's unopened? They lose the merchandise and the money,
and that's a double loss for them, just because you bought something you
don't need. Yes, grocers by policy will accept almost any return, but it's
very unfair to take advantage of that and cost them money when there was
nothing at all wrong with your purchase.

You're sure it wasn't tampered with or mishandled? It's a matter of an
abundance of caution. Besides she has two of these as "backups" so who knows
how old they are. Would you want someone else's old stuff in your shopping

ingredients on a scale in a cup you have to weigh the cup first. ;)
Let's get more convoluted and pretend you cannot use the same measures
for liquid and dry. If you don't own a food scale it seems the only
solution is to get the hell out of the kitchen and go out to eat.

buy them at the grocery store because I already don't know how long
they've been sitting there even if someone hadn't returned them. I'm a

it is not that the volume is different. It is that in some
applications, one is easier to use than the other. DUH!

Volume vs weight has always been a major issue, here. Some ppl
--regulars of rfc!-- absolutely refuse to acknowledge there's any
difference between an ounce by weight and an ounce by volume. It's
actually rather funny. ;)

I didn't take Home Ec in Bothell and this is standard knowledge. It's in
every instructional type cookbook I've ever had and they tell you the same
on various cooking shows. And in one of the links I posted, it even says
exactly what my Home Ec teacher said. Use a clear cup and get down to the
level to eyeball it.

such high levels of precision are often irrelevant in cooking, it's a
useful shortcut to take (if you know what you're doing).

vs a liquid measure cup. Dry measure cups generally come in sets in
various sizes and you dip the cup in and then level it off while liquid
measure cups are designed with klutzes in mind so they have room above
the graduated mark to reduce spillage.
People need to remember that recipe amounts are approximates. Something
that calls for 1 tsp salt might actually be better with 1 1/16 tsp, but
we use the closest standard measurement.

intuition about how it's supposed to look and feel. Measurements are
all I have to rely on.

Actually, for consistency, you should spoon the flour (or whatever) into

the cup before levelling off. Scooping variably compresses the flour and
can make a significant difference to your baked goods. About the only
ingredient that *is* consistent when using measuring cups is granulated
sugar.
