USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

I echo what others have said about ground turkey. The only thing I'll use ground turkey for is something with plenty of seasoning an the ability to add liquid if it is too dry (like taco meat where I can add a little extra water when mixing in seasoning).
 
Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

Only thing we use it for is Tacos. We used to use it for meatloaf but that didn't last long.
 
Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

Ground turkey can make good meatballs if you add in zucchini, etc. I often make those to eat with zucchini noodles and home made marinara sauce
 
Ended up putting it in a frying pan with zucchini, bell peppers, diced tomatoes, and seasoned it with salt, pepper, cumin, and oregano. Served it over toasted white rice and topped it with 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese.

And with the other package, I am going to make lentil soup with the turkey and potatoes.

I make a pumpkin chili with ground beef and lentils that is pretty tasty, and I imagine it would still be edible with ground turkey.

Recipe is here, if you're curious.

Pi Day is coming up. After baking a <a href="http://www.saveur.com/black-and-blue-berry-pie-recipe">Black and Blue</a> pie and some strawberry pie bars, I will be down to 2 bags of raspberries, 1 bag of cherries and a small bag of strawberries for baking stuff. Hopefully they'll last until July. Whould've thunk I didn't get enough berries last year????? I should probably get more this year. :)

Well, the lentil soup with ground turkey, kale, and potatoes did not suck. Wasn't all that great, either. I give it a 6/10.
 
Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

Anyone have a good recipe for dealing with nappa cabbage? I threw some into a dumpling soup last week, but I still have most of the head left.

Graham crackers were invented to suppress sexual desire.

And Corn Flakes were created by Kellogg for the very same reason.

Probably why I don't care for either food...
 
Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

My employer gave me a 5 pound piece of corned beef.

I know... slice it thin and Reuben sandwiches for everyone!

Been doing a lot of baking for a tournament this weekend, and was going with the Cinco de Mayo theme. Had a big macaron fail on Tuesday with the rainy weather. :( Made pan de elote last night, and used frozen corn - should have defrosted it first. It solidified the butter. I had to heat the batter in a double boiler to get the butter to room temp again before I baked it, but I think it worked out OK. I was going to do Tres Leche cake, but realized this morning that we won't have refrigeration. doh! Maybe something churro-related.

Also volunteered to make 12 dozen cookies for charity - here's the list -

you are so good. I only get to bake Chocolate chip because it is the tradition for lil's team
 
Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

I just baked a bunch of t-shirt shaped sugar cookies last night. It's my tradition for the Kentucky Derby. I make a bunch of colored frosting and everyone gets to decorate their cookie like jockey silks.

Although, it seems that "everyone" this year is going to be 4 people. I'm going to have way too much food, but probably the correct amount of bourbon.
 
Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

Ocho de Mayo treats at work today - <a href="http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/tres-leches-cake-recipe">Tres Leches Cake</a> from KAF. Really, really good.

Went to the store last night to buy walnuts for banana nut muffins. But they were out of walnuts, so... either banana peanut or banana cashew. Weird, but it might work.

I find pecans to be a good alternate/improvement for walnuts. A few family members are allergic to walnuts, so I don't use them (and I typically don't like nuts messing with the texture of my breads and cakes).
