barb.j.enders Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 Well, we are halfway through the first month. Time for a party!!! Everyone bring a dish! Preferably one that is local to your area. Share the recipe as well, please!!! We had a blizzard here yesterday. Not much snow but winds up to 90 kmp blowing what fell causing whiteouts. It was a perfect day to hibernate in the playroom. I will bring chicken fingers and Honey Dill dipping sauce. The sauce is definitely a Winnipeg local treat. Originally made at a local restaurant, it can now be purchased in most Winnipeg grocery stores. However, it is so easy to make. One part mayonnaise, one part honey, and dill (dried or fresh). I use dried. No quantity listed because that would be to taste. When I make it for myself, I use 1 Tbsp of mayo & honey and dried dill. Blend well & enjoy!!

Dan Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 (edited) Thanks, barb. I'll bring the makings for cheese coneys. Fresh hotdog buns, hotdogs,Cincinnati chili, and lots of freshly shredded cheddar cheese. Mustard and chopped onions available, also. This is either a "love it" or "never again" favorite of the locals. Also, known for our local breweries, I'll bring many selection of our favorite beers. Cheers!

Charlie E Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 (edited) Being from Alabama I love grits. Mom fixed them every morning. Mine are much better. I make bacon cheddar cheese grits. I use quick-5 minute grits. (Not instant!!!) I use (per serving) about 1/3 to 1/2 cup sharp cheddar, about a tbls cream cheese (optional but good), and 3-4 strips fried and crumbled bacon. I season them with Tony’s Cajun seasoning and salt. You may not live quite as long but you’ll enjoy the time you have more.

RabidAlien Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 Me? I can burn cold cereal. However, my wife makes this green-bean casserole that is a meal unto itself. Some bacon sprinkled in it, just for texture, even the most dedicated carnivore would still give this dish an ovation (speaking from experience). Seriously.....she makes it for Thanksgiving and Christmas meal, and its usually the ONLY leftover that doesn't end up with some getting scraped into the garbage a couple of days later.

Wichman Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 Baked buttercup squash with Polish kielbasa drizzled with honey. Prepare and cook squash as normal. When the squash is turned upright for the second half of baking, fill cavity with chunks of Polish kielbasa, drizzle honey on top for flavor. Finish baking and serve. A smallish squash makes a single serving. JackJones, barb.j.enders, danny and 3 others 4 1 1 Quote

Dan Posted January 20 Report Posted January 20 What Wichman said. My favorite has cinnamon, which I really dislike cinnamon but love the chili. It is nothing like any chili you've ever had. Like I said, you love it or hate it. barb.j.enders 1 Quote
dgman Posted January 20 Report Posted January 20 (edited) Since I’m from Southern California, of course I’m making green salsa street tacos. I grill boneless skinless chicken breast on a cast iron grill pan..when fully cooked, cut into bite sized pieces. In a sauce pan pour in a jar of medium tomatillo salsa and the grilled chicken and heat. Warm up some Hatch chili corn tortillas. Fill the tortillas with the chicken mixture and top with grated Cheddar and jack cheese and a slice of avocado . Serve with homemade Mexican rice, and of course Corona beer!

Scrolling Steve Posted January 20 Report Posted January 20 Thanks Barb, I'll bring some Mac n cheese!.....and maybe some cornbread!........Sounds like a great time! Tomanydogs, JackJones, barb.j.enders and 1 other 3 1 Quote
Scrappile Posted January 20 Report Posted January 20 I will happily bring everyone's favorite, "Liver and onions"! I have not had any since my Mother passed away. Tomanydogs, Dak0ta52, jerry walters and 1 other 3 1 Quote
jerry walters Posted January 20 Report Posted January 20 Paul, I'm with you. As a kid I loved Liver and Onions. When I go to a restaurant that offers it, I always get it. Jerry barb.j.enders 1 Quote
Dak0ta52 Posted January 20 Report Posted January 20 Ok... a very simple recipe but delicious. Cranberry Relish. My wife always fixes it for Holidays and I encourage her to make it more often. I've kept after her to give me the recipe and she was reluctant for years. I finally got it out of her a few months ago and find the recipe is so easy!!! Two cans whole cranberries, one can crushed pineapple, one cup chopped walnuts, one bag frozen strawberries. Dump into a bowl and mix. I promise it will disappear fast. My mom is 92 and when I buy her groceries each week, I have to get enough to make two batches to last her through the week. By the way, I take the calories out of mine. You can leave them in for your batch if you like. JackJones, wombatie, Tomanydogs and 2 others 2 1 2 Quote
