Coach has been ignoring the vicious, lying old crones in the cooking group lately (unless the rumors about Lucinda being his mole are true), so I checked in to see what they're up to.
Pretty much the same litany of lies and foreign food names as always.
I hope everyone finishes their lunch before reading this thread.

What's for Dinner ~ Wednesday Jan 23rd
Killed ANOTHER computer this week and am popping in to post this on Bill's box. I am going to try and Frankenstein one together from the corpses of those I have killed that are still sitting in the storage closet. Wish me luck.
We have been on a Mexican food kick lately, so when I feel up to eating it's been home-made pico de gallo and some form of burritos.

2. Leftover lima bean soup, homemade wheat dinner rolls and a Waldorf salad
Good luck with your computer project!
I'm reminded of Brando in "Apocalypse Now" - "The horror! The horror!"

7. Went through the larder - it's marinating in yogurt. Baking w/ raisins, cranberries and peaches. Spiced well. Rice on the side.
Oh my god.

6. I'm torn between a sloppy joe type ground beef mixture with a cornbread crust on top
and orange chicken, but it's gloomy and chilly, so I am leaning towards the sloppy joes.
You knew they couldn't go long without a foreign-food bouncy:

Your meal sounds great!
I'm making this today along with Moroccan bread and steamed couscous.
I've been on a Moroccan food kick, trying to learn how to make it. I actually ordered my first tagine, an unglazed one, that I hope will arrive in the next week or two. In the meantime I am making this recipe in a dutch oven with a circle of parchment paper pressed down on the stew.
I received a nice cookbook on Moroccan recipes for Xmas and am exploring.

11. I'm doing cabbage/ground beef casserole
Well it's actually not a casserole...I just dump it in the pressure cooker with lots of garlic and a can of tomatoes. I'll eat it over Shiritaki noodles and SO will probably just make a sandwich out of it.

14. Welcome back, Lucinda!
I could eat Mexican food every day. I am convinced I was a Mexican in a former life. Just made a big batch of venison chile for 50 and a big batch of butternut-apple soup for 50 and have my assembly line of pies ready to bake off tomorrow. I'll make the fillings tomorrow, but the crusts are all formed and frozen for the occasion.
Tonight, we are having baked potatoes, salmon, and steamed broccoli and a ciabatta roll on the side. Back to the kitchen!
Where do you find fifty people who will eat squash-apple soup? A batch for fifty could be maybe a pint.

15. vegetarian sandwiches on pumpernickel
Eggplant sammiches with roasted peppers, sundried tomatoes, and a big slice of mozzarella on fresh pumpernickel. I flavor the mayo with chipotle. It's hot, but good!
But earlier in the day I made a pot of soup because it was so cold.
LiberalLoner, I looked at tagines. Your cooking adventure sounds like fun.
I don't think I'm hungry anymore.
