Re: [CnD] Prepairing Ribs
It is probably too late. But for the future, place the ribs in a pan and cover with coke or pepsi. Let simmer on the stove in this for 2 hours. After that take the meat out of the pan and place in a casserole dish or roasting pan. Pour Sweet Baby Rays bar B Que sauce over the meat and heat in the oven for 30 minutes on 350. -Original Message- From: cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org [mailto:cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org] On Behalf Of Blaine Deutscher Sent: Sunday, November 06, 2011 2:37 PM To: Cooking in the Dark Subject: [CnD] Prepairing Ribs Hello there.

Re: [CnD] NO BAKE OATMEAL CLUSTERS
I just checked my No Bake cookie recipe and yours is a lot the same. Mine does call for 1 cup of coconut or 1 cup nuts. Mine also calls for 1/2 cup water instead of milk. Did you boil the mix for a minute? That starts the hardening process. The mixture should be about the consistency of cookie dough, not hard enough to roll into balls but hard enough to make a mound on the wax paper. It takes hours to dry and you have to turn them over part way through the drying. I always use Old Fashion Oatmeal.

Re: [CnD] Fw: 15 Minute Chicken & Rice Dinner
What this recipe is missing is spices. You can either use fresh onion and garlic and sauté it with the chicken or you can use onion powder and garlic powder. Also if those aren't spices you like just find something in your spice rack that you and your husband like. I have made something similar, but used a can of sliced mushrooms, and some sautéed celery and onions. It is a good enough recipe if you get creative with it and add more spices to meet your taste.

First, I did not brown the chicken breast halves whole, I cut them into small bite sized pieces. Second, I did not remove the chicken from the skillet when it was browned, I added the soup and milk to the skillet with the chicken still in it, brought all that to a boil, then added the rice and broccoli, turned it down to low, and cooked for six minutes instead of five, because my rice usually doesn't get done in five minutes and usually needs just an extra minute. The meal was a success and very good, but my husband and I both thought it was just a little bit plain and didn't have a whole lot of flavor. I'm not a very experienced cook, I've been cooking for a long time but don't know a whole lot about the art of cooking. I'm looking for some tips from any of you more experienced cooks about what I can do to give this meal a little more flavor and make it a little less plain.

Re: [CnD] lasagna
Lasagna 1 pound ground beef 1 can whole tomatoes 2 small cans tomato paste 1 tsp. Oregano Salt and pepper to taste 1 chopped onion 8 ounces cottage cheese 1 egg 1 pound mozzarella cheese (grated) Parmesan cheese Lasagna noodles (10 to 12 Brown meat and drain fat, add chopped onions, whole tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano and salt and pepper to taste. I usually will add a bit more spices, like garlic and Italian seasoning. All depends on your taste. Simmer sauce for 1 hour. Cook and drain noodles Beat egg into cottage cheese Layer into a 9 by 12 casserole starting with sauce. Then noodles, sauce, mozzarella cheese. I do three layers. If you do the middle layer with the noodles going the narrow ways of the pan, it will slice much better when served. End with spooning the cottage cheese mixture over the top, I just drop spoonfuls on the top and then sprinkle with a little parmesan cheese. Bake 350 20 to 25 minutes. This is my personal recipe I have made for years. Hope you like it. Do season the way you like it. -Original Message- From: cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org [mailto:cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org] On Behalf Of Kerryann Ifill Sent: Saturday, December 04, 2010 1:39 PM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Subject: [CnD] lasagna Hi List, I need a recipe for lasagna. doe s anyone have one to share?

Re: [CnD] Crockpot Questions!
I have the smallest one and at first was worried it would be too small. I am cooking for 2 and quite often it is just perfect. I can cook a game hen in it or a small pork roast and the potatoes or vegetables to go with them. In fact I am getting one to give as a gift this Christmas.

Hi, I'm in the market for a smaller crockpot; I don't even know how many quarts ours is, because we've asked for sighted help with looking for that on the unit itself, but it doesn't seem to have any numbers. I'm thinking it's about a 6 or 7 quart pot! So, I'm looking for a smaller one; I've seen 3.5 quart & 4 quart units; sometimes, this one is just too big for what we're cooking. I'm assuming that a 1.5 would be way too small? I saw one on www.walmart.com for $22, which I think is a good price, but I just wanted some opinions.

I always cook my turkey fast and hot so don't stuff it. I make my stuffing ahead of time using the giblets. I cook a 22 pound turkey in 2 hours.

Re: [CnD] Seeking Recipes for someone who must be on a low sodium diet
My husband just had a heart attack and we are starting to work on the low salt diet. A couple of the things the dietician in the hospital told us was if you are going to use canned vegetables, drain them first and rinse them. When you cook them add your own water and seasonings, this gets a lot of the salt out of the canned vegetables. She also said if you really think you need the salt taste when you get a bottle of Mrs. Dash just open the lid and add about a 1/2 teaspoon to the bottle and shake up. This way you get a little salt taste, but most the Mrs. Dash seasonings. Hope this helps a little.

The doctor said it is absolutely crucial that he maintain a low sodium diet. I was wondering if anyone has any recipes that have low sodium in them? He must not go over 2,000 mg per day in sodium content. Some of the things he can have are potato salad and tuna salad, but I looked at the ready made ones, and they are very high, containing about 520 mg of sodium per serving, which is 1/3 of a cup. So I am looking for ways to make things from scratch that don't contain nearly as much in sodium. If anyone knows of any books that are available online that contain sample menus for someone on a low sodium diet to follow, please let me know that too. I greatly appreciate any help. Thanks.

Re: [CnD] Wanted Easy Great Mashed Potatoes
There are a lot of ways to fix mashed potatoes. Make sure when you boil them that you just have the water a little below the top of the potatoes. Too much water and they can get mushy. When the potatoes are tender, drain them immediately. then you can either use a electric mixer or a hand masher. The main thing is to mash them so there aren't any lumps. Once the potatoes are basically mashed you can start adding a little milk and butter. Start with a little at a time. You can always add more but can't take it out. Sometimes you can add sour cream or cream cheese. But for standard mashed potatoes use milk and butter. I always add some garlic salt and of course pepper. If you don't want the garlic taste just add salt. Also a little at a time. Keep tasting until it is to your likings. I take extra time making sure all the lumps are out. I love mashed potatoes so make them often.
