collards, corn muffins and rice?

What kind of he** are you putting yourself through?







btw - those are my homegrown collards with just the right amount of vinegar, sugar, bay leaf, chicken stock, ham on the bone, serrano peppers, black pepper, Louisiana Hot Sauce, chopped onion.

:rofl:


The meal looks delicious, IM. I've never added bay to my collards, I'll have to try that. I like to mix collards and mustard greens.

Let me know when we're leaving.

Chicken Tomato Soup

I simmered the backs for a few hours.

http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...B/IMG_3500.jpg

After it cooled a little, I strained the broth and deboned the backs. The broth and the meat went in the fridge. After the broth chilled I pulled the fat off the top.

In a crock pot add

Broth and meat
2 qts stewed tomatoes
3 ribs celery, diced
2 medium onions, diced
4 carrots, diced
1 Tbsp cracked black pepper
4 serrano peppers finely sliced

http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...B/IMG_3509.jpg

This cooked on low in the crock pot about 8 hours.

Cook off 1 lb. of small shell pasta.

Chicken Tomato Soup served with fresh bread.

Grilled Tandoori Chicken

I followed this recipe by Emeril

Grilled Tandoori Chicken Recipe : Emeril Lagasse : Food Network

In a blender, combine the oil, onion, garlic, ginger, pepper, and process on high speed to a paste.

http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...B/IMG_3495.jpg

Add the paprika, salt, cumin, turmeric, coriander, garam masala, and cayenne, and process until well blended.

Add the yogurt and lemon juice, and process to a smooth sauce, scraping down the sides to combine all the ingredients.
