Canola
oil
3 eggs
2 tablespoons minced Garlic
2 tablespoons minced Ginger
1 bunch chopped Green Onion
4 strips of cooked Bacon, crumbled
4 cups cooked, day-old long grain Rice
3 tablespoons Soy Sauce
Salt and Pepper to taste
In a
wok or large skillet, add 2 tablespoons of oil and quickly soft-scramble the
eggs. Remove the eggs. In the same pan, coat with oil and stir-fry garlic and
ginger. Add onions and bacon. Add rice and mix thoroughly. Add soy sauce, white
pepper and scrambled eggs. Check for seasoning. Serve immediately.
I
have also used a very good Fried Rice seasoning packet from Sun-Bird,
distributed by Williams, Inc. in place of the ginger and the garlic. You can
also use ham or pork instead of the bacon.
Old
Bay Seasoning to taste
5
pounds new potatoes
3
lbs cooked kielbasa sausage, cut into 1 inch pieces
8
ears fresh corn, husks and silks
removed, broken in half
5
pounds crab legs
4
pounds fresh shrimp, peeled and de-veined
newspapers
beer
Heat
a large pot of water over an outdoor cooker, or medium-high heat indoors. Add
Old Bay Seasoning to taste, and bring to a boil. Add potatoes, and sausage, and
cook for about 10 minutes. Add the corn and crab; cook for another 5 minutes,
then add the shrimp when everything else is almost done, and cook for another 3
or 4 minutes.
Drain off the water, and
pour the contents out onto a picnic table covered with newspaper. Grab a paper
plate and a beer and enjoy! This is another dish that's ripe for hot bread and
a salad with Atomic Dressing!
Lauren
loves Chile Rellenos - but the 'real thing' is sure a pain to make! This is a
good substitute, and much, much easier.
2 4
oz cans of whole Chiles
6
oz Monterey Jack Cheese
4
Eggs, beaten
⅓ C Milk
½
tsp Salt
½
tsp Baking Soda
½ C
All-Purpose Flour
½ C
Cheddar Cheese, grated
Drain
the peppers and cut in half lengthwise. Remove seeds. Cut Monterey Jack cheese into strips and wrap in
pepper halves. Place in greased 10"X6"X2" baking dish.
Combine
eggs, milk; beat in flour, baking soda and salt until smooth. Pour over peppers
and cheese.
Sprinkle
with grated cheddar cheese and bake for 30 minutes, or until hot and bubbling.
Served with refried beans, hot tortillas and a salad - and maybe some fresh
salsa with chips! - and El Chico ain't got nothin' on you.
Mable's Pot Roast
This
is about the easiest, tastiest pot roast you can make.
1
roast - 7 bone, chuck, whatever
1
packet Lipton Onion Soup Mix (the kind you usually use to make onion dip)
2 C
Water
Put
roast in crock pot. Mix onion soup with water and pour over roast. Cook on high
'til noon, turn heat to low.
You can add some carrots and potatoes, too, for a
'meal in a pot' that's ready when you get home from work - or that's ready at
the end of any long day.
