Rachael Ray vs. Saddam Hussein (the 45 minute litmus test) |
|
Now that I am a regular viewer of the Food Channel, thanks to my wife having control of the remote, I am totally amazed at how mind blowing the concept of a 30 minute meal is. Hell Saddam only needed 45 minutes to launch an WMD attack and you can't make a meal in 30 freaking minutes?*
*-their may be some dispute over the 45 minute claim but I digress.
So for all of her superwoman ability to...uh... organize and focus I am not sure that another of the following can possibly be made in 30 minutes- if Rachael Ray can't do it WHO CAN!?!?!?
-a sandwich -soup -(pushing the envelope here) soup AND a sandwich
-Spaghetti
-Grilled steak, baked potato, green beans (insert vegetable of your choice), salad, full dinner table setting -"Full Monty" breakfast-Eggs, sausage (of your choice), bread, potatoes hell throw in a slice of tomato (if you can handle the time management)
Oh wait there just might be someone who can do it
ME!
:eyes: 30 Minute Meal :wow: amazing.

2. You mean TMM - Thirty Minute Meal. |
|
Use some EVOO - Extra Virgin Olive Oil - and some TLC - Tender Loving Care - and you'll be GTG - Good to Go.

14. I thought it was a joke until I finally saw an episode of Ray's show. |
|
You are not kidding. EVERY. FUCKING. TIME. Uses the acronym, says what it stands for. Hello? Is there no one on her staff to tell her that's EXTREMELY stupid and annoying?
OK, she's cute and all, but if you strapped me down, propped my eyes open, and forced me to watch 2 hours of her, I'd be ready to kill on command.

5. Most of mine are 15-30 minutes. You gotta be special for more than 30 mins |
|
The only person I can think of that I'd make a 30+ minute meal for might be Harper Lee, author of "To Kill a Mockingbird," my favorite book.

But I don't make too many elaborate meals during the week. I'm a Sunday supper kind of gal.
