    I HATED the ham & beans, but the cheese spread was pretty damned good.

    Hell, out in the field we didn't have trays, but trading C-Rations was common & sometimes took cash/other stuff to get the good C-rations LOL.

  • CHILI CHEESE DOG PIZZA  ........when you're in the mood for something different !

     
    YIELDS:   4 SERVINGS   PREP TIME:   0 HOURS 15 MINS   TOTAL TIME:   0 HOURS 40 MINS
     
    INGREDIENTS

    Cooking spray

    1 lb. refrigerated pizza dough, divided into 2 pieces
    3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
    2 c. canned chili, divided
    2 c. shredded cheddar, divided 
    3 hot dogs, sliced 1/4" thick, divided

    1/2 small red onion, diced

    2 green onions, thinly sliced 

    WHAT TO DO    

    1. Preheat oven to 500°. Grease two large baking sheets with cooking spray. 
    2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 piece of pizza dough into a large circle roughly 8" in diameter. Transfer onto prepared baking sheet, then repeat with other piece of pizza dough.
    3. Brush the surface of each pizza with olive oil. Spread 1 cup of chili on each pizza, leaving a 1" border around the edges of the dough. (This will be your crust!)
    4. Divide cheddar evenly between both pizzas, then top with sliced hot dogs.
    5. Bake until cheese is melty and dough is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes, checking on the pizzas and rotating them in the oven halfway through.
    6. Top with red and green onions before serving.

    Looks tasty especially with the asparagus as a green veggie.  I love asparagus (or most green veggies) whether it's grilled, steamed or with another food.

    I just finished some Tostitos scoopers with some cold chunky salsa and some Dutch Farms Mexican Cheese mix and cold sour cream.....nice snack !

    Tonight some talipia or cod with and chips and whatever we dig up........

    Do you know that the chemical ingredient in jalapenos is the active ingredient in the pain killer  capsacin?  My son told me that.

  • Capsaicin is present in many peppers, not JUST jalapenos.

    Interesting for those of you with bird feeders & squirrel problems...lace your bird seed with cayenne pepper. It doesn't bother birds, but squirrels won't touch it. A buddy of mine in NC put me onto that years ago & it works.

  • Guess our cat just sucks..... Must be a Bengal

  • Here's one that we're thinking about making after our next scheduled trip to the food shopping place of our choice maybe the new. Rulli Bros Italian grocery store on South Ave  in Boardman about a mile from our house.  The original was on Kirk Road across the street from our church St Anne's, the new one is much better.

    Any of you Italian food junkies like Dutch would love it but I'd recommend getting there early before the parking lot fills up !

    Spinach-Artichoke Manicotti .....it's what's for dinner !  Ummmm.

    Baked pasta doesn't get the attention it deserves, but spinach-artichoke manicotti is here to change that. It has all the components of your favorite dip stuffed inside a cheesy, creamy Alfredo-covered manicotti. It's perfect for a weeknight dinner or for entertaining! 

    If red sauce is more your thing, then try out our classic Cheese Manicotti! 

    YIELDS 6 SERVINGS   PREP TIME:0 HOURS 10 MINS   TOTAL TIME:1 HOUR 5 MINS
    INGREDIENTS
     
    1 (8-oz.) package manicotti
    1 (16-oz.) container ricotta
    1 package frozen spinach, thawed and drained
    1 c. chopped artichoke hearts
    2 c. shredded mozzarella, divided

    Kosher salt,  Freshly ground black pepper, Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes

    3 tbsp. butter
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
    2 c. milk
    1/2 c. freshly grated Parmesan

    Juice of ½ a lemon,   Freshly chopped parsley, for garnish

    DIRECTIONS
    1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook manicotti until al dente, 5 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.
    2. In a large bowl, combine ricotta, spinach, artichoke hearts, and ½ cup mozzarella. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Transfer to a piping bag or large resealable plastic bag and make a cut in the corner of the bag.
    3. In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add garlic and cook until fragrant. Add flour and whisk until golden and bubbly, 1 minute. Slowly pour in milk and whisk until no lumps remain. Add Parmesan and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat and let simmer until slightly thickened, 5 minutes.
    4. Spoon about ¼ cup of sauce on bottom of a 9"-x-13" baking dish. Pipe ricotta filling into manicotti, making sure to fill entire noodle and place in pan. Pour remaining sauce over noodles and top with remaining 1½ cups mozzarella. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake until cheese is melty, 10 minutes. If you'd like the top to be golden, broil on high for 2 to 3 minutes. Garnish with parsley to serve.
