Winter Blues Get Together

[amber]

Looking forward to whatever is planned. I'm always looking for new ideas on what to make for dinner.

Kitchenelf, have you posted this spoonbread I'm hearing so much about? I've never had spoonbread but I am intrigued. The potato soup sounds good. I'm sure dh would not complain.

Thanks for starting this up again, Alix. I had forgotten about dine with us.

This sounds great - I have never tried it before - one question...I have some hot peppers that I dried out - Would I be able to use these instead of the canned ones?? They are on the HOT side.

The green chilies are not that hot. They have a certain "flavor". You can definitely use your dried peppers though - I plan on spicing mine up more this time too. I was going to do it via ground red pepper but I think I will add some chili flakes now that you mentioned that. I am still going to add the green chilies, like I said, they lend that certain flavor that only they can lend.

ah, I see. It's like cornbread. Thanks!

Would you like me to send you some of the peppers - I have tons - They are really good - combined 3 to 4 types in my dehydrator - If you would really like some please PM me your addy and I will send ASAP -

Yes, like cornbread only better - sorry - I guess you thought it was something different.

kitchenelf, your cheesy spoon bread sounds heavenly! It definitely goes well with potato soup.

O.K., I wish I'd seen this post before I posted and showed my ignorance...again.

Alix, this sounds like so much fun - I'm off to reread the other post and see what my menu is for Saturday!! Thanks!


Uffda! and what is wrong with lutefisk, may I ask???? ;)
