It's very easy to omit ingredients from any recipe, which is what I presume these women expect you to do." Thank you for replying, I wasn't going to come back into the topic but it's been bothering me all day because all I did was jokingly say "Ick" to a food I don't like. What I notice here is that others have made rude comments about Miracle Whip, a food *I* use, but were they called out on their "rudeness" to me? No. Why is it ALWAYS me, especially when I go out of my way to let you all know I'm laughing, just as I would if you were sitting before me. I'm not laughig AT you, I'm laughing at an ingredient in food! I have to disagree with you about people adding the ingredients that I specifically asked NOT to be added. Just as everyone goes into other's topics and apologizes for "hijacking" it, this was MY topic, and MY question. I'm not saying this to be mean, but I was the one who wanted some recipes which do not use fruits and nuts. Unless it was a fruit salad. :) So yes, when I get a reply I expect it to be for ME, and others are more than welcome to chime in. It's no different than if you did a topic on the other forum asking for painting advice on any color EXCEPT black, and everyone replied showing you their black rooms. lol. So I don't see how it was wrong for me to RME when I got the recipes with fruits and nuts. When we do a topic asking a specific question, should others reply for the sake of themselves, or to answer the OP's question? Lastly, I cannot believe how the word "Ick" offended others when no offense was meant at ALL. You all don't know me, but I'm known as the "Peace maker". Sure, I get my feelings hurt just like everyone else does, and I hate arguments especially if they're so trivial as me laughing and saying "Ick." I find it extremely rude to correct people on something so minor especially when it's obvious there was no intent on insulting anyone. I said it good heartedly. Just as I said the word "Yankee." Others have been calling themselves Yankees on this board all the time, but when I say it, it's considered offensive? I just get the feeling that some people here, but not all and just a minority, love to nitpick and bicker with others ad nauseum. We were having a fun and fascinating conversation about sandwiches and Miracle Whip vs. Mayonaise, until... I even found a place that sells the Mayo the "southerners" here like that I can order it online. Now, as far as being southern, I think I said this before. Both of my parents were born and raised in southern Virginia, and moved here to Oklahoma after they married. My father is a graduate of VA. Tech. Every single person in my family except my brother and myself are from Virginia. My uncle had a tobacco farm. I grew up with parents dipping cornbread in Buttermilk. ICK!!!! lol. See? I'm laughing about it, I still laugh at it to my mom when she does it! It's not a derogatory term because it's FOOD. But if you were to serve it to me, I'd be polite and eat it and if I didn't like it, you'd never know. Talking about food tastes is one thing and to turn it into nasty, nasty personal insults is another. Which I know you didn't do. I do however take offense because you are insinuating I am not "sophisticated" because I don't like fruit and nuts in my sandwiches. What? You have no idea what I eat. BTW, if anyone even cares at this point, I decided to make some Vegetable Bars and Tuna Salad finger sandwiches. :)...See MoreLOOKING for: Please share your kabob recipes
Comments (5)I got this one from allrecipes.com, it' really good. And easy. I just use regular feta and it works great. INGREDIENTS: * 1 (8 ounce) container fat-free plain yogurt * 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese with basil and sun-dried tomatoes * 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest * 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice * 2 teaspoons dried oregano * 1/2 teaspoon salt * 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper * 1/4 teaspoon crushed dried rosemary * 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch pieces * 1 large red onion, cut into wedges * 1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces DIRECTIONS: In a large shallow baking dish, mix the yogurt, feta cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, salt, pepper, and rosemary. Place the chicken in the dish, and turn to coat. Cover, and marinate 3 hours in the refrigerator. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Thread the chicken, onion wedges, and green bell pepper pieces alternately onto skewers. Discard remaining yogurt mixture. Grill skewers on the prepared grill until the chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear....See MoreRECIPE: Please share your favourite nuts and bolts recipe
Comments (17)The Australian version, provided by Kellogg's on many packets of their Nutri-grain product. The nuts of the title are of course peanuts, the bolts are the shape of the cereal product. I have made this countless times. Sometimes I've added a packet of dried French Onion Soup to the mixture. Nuts and Bolts 250g butter 2 tablespoons oil 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce 1 teaspoon garlic salt 1 teaspoon paprika 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper 500g KelloggÂs Nutri-Grain 500g salted mixed nuts Melt butter and oil together over low heat, add Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, paprika and cayenne. Combine Nutri-Grain and nuts, place in a large baking dish. Pour butter mixture over and bake at 125C for about 1 hour, turning every 15 minutes with an egg slice. Cool. Store in an airtight container. Tried to find a decent picture of the cereal, to no avail. The link has a pic of sorts. Here is a link that might be useful: nutri-grain...See More~*~Please share your Fancy T&T Cookies & Candy recipes~*~
Comments (26)I usually post on The Diet Chat, but since these aren't diet-friendly LOL, I am posting them here. They are quick and easy and look good. PECAN CARAMEL BROWNIE CUPS 18-22 individually wrapped choc. covered caramels (Milky Way Chocolate Covered Caramels work best!) Mini-fluted foil or paper baking cup liners ½ C butter (1 stick) 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped (I use the pre-melted NestléÂs*) 1 C sugar 1 tsp. vanilla 2 large eggs ½ C flour ¼ tsp. salt Pecan halves 1 bar (1.55 oz.) milk chocolate (optional) 1. Preheat oven to 350º F. Unwrap caramels and cut each in half with sharp knife. Line mini muffin tins with paper or foil liners. (Make sure to use liners in muffin cups; brownies will stick to pan, even if well greased.) 2. In large microwave-safe bowl, melt butter with unsweetened chocolate in microwave oven on High 1 minute; stir until smooth. (*30 sec. On high if using the pre-melted choc.) 3. With wire whisk, beat sugar, vanilla and eggs into melted chocolate mixture until blended. Whisk in flour and salt until smooth. Spoon batter by rounded measuring teaspoons into prepared muffin-pan cups. Top each with a caramel half and a pecan half (or quarter), lightly pressing caramel into the batter. 4. Bake brownie cups 10-12 minutes or until brownies are firm when lightly pressed. Do not over cook or they will be dry. Cool brownies in pan on wire rack 10 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on rack. 5. In microwave-safe cup, melt milk chocolate in microwave oven on High 45 seconds; stir until smooth. Cool slightly. Place brownies on wax paper lined cookie sheet. Pour milk chocolate into small self-sealing plastic bag. Snip 1 corner to make a 1/16-inch opening and drizzle chocolate over brownies. Refrigerate brownies 30 minutes or until chocolate is set. Store brownies in tightly covered container, with waxed paper between layers, at room temperature up to 1 week, or in freezer up to 3 months. Makes 36  44 mini brownie cups. You could melt white chocolate to drizzle over the top to give them a different look. Or tint the white chocolate green or red for a festive look....See MoreLynnNM
