I've put Will Pitt in a food coma!

[Raven]

His arteries are completely blocked...he can't keep his eyes open. It was the swordfish, fettuccine alfredo, fresh corn, lasagna, salad, cheese/tomato pie, cheese bread, choc. chip cookies (homemade) for dinner tonight that did it. I can't seem to wake him up. I'll have to roll him home tomorrow. Oh, did I mention the beers? :-) This is obviously an example of pent up mother love.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

1. As long as you did it for under $600

I don't foresee it becoming an issue :evilgrin:

[fishnfla]

2. mmmm, .......... pent up mother love

My brother-in-law will be at the door soon with FRESH swordfish he caught himself, how did you cook yours Raven?

On edit: before anyone gets their billfish all bent out of shape due to the depletion of swordfish in our mother oceans, his was legal,it was his first sword, they caught three more and set them back to nature, and the stocks are rebounding, big time, off the South FL coast due to a moratorium on commercial harvest.

[Raven]

6. A little pepper, garlic salt

on top and I baked it in a 350 oven for 20 minutes or so. I added a little butter and lemon juice at the very end. Depending on the thickness of the cut, I doesn't take too long to cook, especially when it's fresh. Have fun!

11. Go get thee some raspberry jam, white wine, cilantro and onion

Broil the swordfish steaks in the broiler or on the grill with salt and pepper.

In a saute pan, take 1/2 cup of white wine and thinly sliced pieces of onion, reduce the wine until the alcohol burns off, add 1/2 cup of raspberry jam and mix until dissolved on low heat (so you don't burn it) When you have turned the heat off, add chopped cilantro (about 2 TBS full) Spoon this onto the plate and place the swordfish on it.

Yum yum!

25. yummmmmmmmm

I don't even like Raspberry jam (it's a texture thing, don't ask) but this sounds delicious.

Maybe I could use grape jelly instead? LOLOLOL

Seriously though, this is the 2nd really fabulous recipe of yours in two days. To what do you owe your obvious skill in the kitchen?

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

26. You could use fresh raspberries and some sugar instead

about a basketful combined with two tablespoons of sugar in a food processor.

Answer: I don't know what I owe it to, but I'm gonna make some girl real happy some day :evilgrin:

[Cheswick2.0]

28. I am sure you are

;)

[Maple]

3. Good grief!

All that is enough to put ANYone in a coma!

Enough food for a week...all in one meal??

[blm]

4. Sounds yummy.

What a great mommy.

[SaveABug]

5. MOM!!!!

Did I finally find you? To think, all these years I thought a good meal was a can of vienna sausages with beer.

[never cry wolf]

7. hahahahaha

so, i assume he will now sleep through the bears kicking the pats up and down the field!! if he wants to make a friendly wager........

[Raven]

10. Will says

"thanks for Roosevelt" :-)

[never cry wolf]

12. GRRRRRRRRRRRR

we have our own shrub in chi-town called mike mc caskey.

[Raven]

14. He says

"I've got your face!" :eyes:

[never cry wolf]

17. hahahahahaha

well, at least I don't have to have my mommy do my talking for me!!

(apologies raven, male smack talk is all.)

[never cry wolf]

18. 7-0, I've got HIS face

but I'd rather have Roosevelt back.

[SOteric]

8. With this sort of incentive

expect that boy to pen up your motherly love on a fairly frequent basis.

[molly]

9. How can I EVER be on a diet - just reading your threads

makes me gain weight - Will's young enough to work it off...

[GOPisEvil]

13. Wahhhhhhh....my parents go on vacation Monday!

No mom food comas until Sept. 22.

Can I be temporarily adopted? Just send food with Will on Sept. 13th. ;-)

[Raven]

15. I'll try GOP but

with Will, the food might not survive the trip!

[GOPisEvil]

16. LOL! I'll get a ziploc bag with crumbs at the bottom!

:eyes:

19. Raven, How Do YOu Make Cheese Tomato Pie?

Please :)

[Raven]

20. You can make your own pie crust or buy one of those refrigerated

9 inch ones. For the filling:

about 10 plum tomatoes peeled and sliced. (To peel, drop them in boiling water for 20-30 seconds and then drop them in ice cold water until they cool. Then they peel easily.)

1/4 cup of fresh basil chopped
3 scallions chopped
1 1/2 cups of sharp cheddar cheese shredded
1/3 cup of mayonaise
2 tablespoons of lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt
dash of pepper.

Heat the oven to 350. Lay your botton pie shell. Layer with tomato slices, basil and scallions. Cover with 1/2 the cheddar cheese.Mix the mayonaise, lemon juice, salt and pepper and pour over the tomatoes and cheese. Top with the remaining cheddar. Place the second pie shell on top of the filling and make 3 or four slits. Bake for 45-50 minutes. Let it cool for 5-10 minutes before you eat it.

Enjoy!

[KittyWampus]

22. Thanks! I've Got Tomatoes & Basil In The Garden

But I think I'll substitute silken tofu for the mayo!

This sounds great and not too difficult.

Bet it tastes great the second day.

[redwitch]

23. YUM!

I vote this recipe makes it into the DU Cookbook, it sounds like heaven-Thanks for sharing! :hi:

[fishnfla]

24. Oh my (edited for content) god. I love you

nothing personal, but wow, what a bomb recipe!!! I got 2 off of this thread thanks to NSMA. I vote that DU has a cooking thread and we can all make democratic love that way.

[LynneSin]

21. I'm really upset with you!!

You didn't invite me!!!

(mom's always have the best cooking)

[Ellen Forradalom]

27. He'll forgive you

but just this once. :-)

[Robbien]

29. And only if you promise to do it again. n/t

[Rhiannon12866]

30. My God! Please adopt me!

I am glad that Will is well fed. He has been working so hard that he's so very fortunate to have a mother like you!
:toast:

[Rabrrrrrr]

31. Fettucine alfredo AND lasagna?

I'd be in a food coma, too, even without the other stuff.

Sounds like a heck of a meal! Just don't be killing our Will Pitt.

:evilgrin:

Cool mom.

[matcom]

[KittyWampus]

34. What Is Carbonara?
