Pancakes from scratch are the best! Nice job. I need to find a recipe for what is called a "Dutch Baby Pancake" because it is so good and you all will love it. Though it is a high egg product cholestrol fest. totally worth it. Not an everyday thing but for a once in a while meal. It is actually not a baby at all, it is a huge pancake, almost a souffle really where you pour the batter into a big round pan that has deep sides and set it in the oven to bake. For serving it gets a dusting of powdered sugar and a squeeze of fresh lemon.

So instead of looking through 8 pages of things I've missed and comments I wanted to make of others, I am just doing a quick recap.

Ursy: I know of the seeds.
KC: I love apples and PB, I think they are a great brain jolt protein snack. Have you ever tried Ambrosia apples?
Sun: I think cheese day should be every day. Though since yesterday was National Cheese day, I made some cheesy (sharp cheddar) green chili chicken enchiladas. Had some friends over and chowed down.
Dante: Hi.

I will probably be MIA for another week, I have been super busy crazy with classes and I was looking up to see how many more days I have, and its only 53 days. I just can't believe it. Seriously.

Today's study break included: cara care orange, triscuits, and extra sharp white cheddar (the kind that has crystals in it). MMM.

Well back to study... test tomorrow, final thursday. See ya'll later.

Eat good. be Happy.

You are one busy guy, my friend. Did you already share the recipe for the enchiladas? If not please do. I cant recall what all made it up here as a post. That said I should start downloading some of the recipes. It is crazy to go back and try to find them. Though I have not picked a date yet I def want to come to NM for Green Chili harvest this fall. We will have to be in contact about that.

Here is the recipe that I mentioned. Though I see variations on this recipe, and mine had more eggs in it, this one looks about right. The end product looks like the one that I have cooked out of a cookbook that I have in CA not with me.

I really struggled with finding something to go witht he butternut squash ravioli. I thought of baked fish or a pork roast with apples and cherry but as I was talking to a friend about how we have a date nite when cnn gets home from work tonite and was telling them about what I was thinking about. I told them that knowing that the brown butter sauce is rich I didnt know if the baked fish I was think of would pair well. I mentioned the turkey breast and they damm near jumkped thru the phone to be here when it would b done. I am glad they dont live closer enough to show up for dinner

I hear you brother. Emphasis on "date night" jeeez some people only think of themselves. Folks get psycho with food. Its a good pairing. I was with a vegetarian for many years and when I would do turkey I would cook Tofurkey for her and wound up liking it oddly enough, so that was one item that got paired with the butternut squash. If you happen to have any fresh sage, it will compliment the butter sauce nicely. If not, no big deal.

The cranberry is what got me. I am a sucker for anything cranberry that is served with poultry. Yum. Let us know how this turns out. I am so happy that you are cooking tonight, cinn is so sweet and yall are so adorable.

Wow! There is so much going on here tonight. I LOVE it!!!! Thanks for all of the wonderful ideas and recipes.

"Date night" cooking. I really enjoy things like this. It can be simple, intimate and you can learn a lot about a person from spending time together in the kitchen & their food habits. There are always exceptions.

I had some of the same experiences you have Sun, when it comes to cooking for others. I usually make vegetarian options (with at least one vegan dish) and non vegetarian options. What I found was that 9 times out of 10 the non vegetarians liked those dishes a lot more! Go figure

Ground soy is a lifesaver haha.
