The hardest thing for me is the time zones and I like to spend time with Mrs BDF in the evening so I very rarely look at the puter. I got up as usual at 05.30 am switched on and went for a stroll. I then have to play catch up, oooooh aaaaahh ooh ooh aah ooh ahh corr ahh blimey and I'm here hungry.
I don't view this or any other thread here as an ego trip or a competition. I post on occasion on two boards in the UK that are packed with pompous fools who rather than help just slag the newbs off. I get more posts removed for smacking these burks than posting recipes or advice.
Hats off and a hearty cheer for the mods ect but most of all you lot for contributing and making this place a foodie haven typo meant

I agree wholeheartedly with you, Bolas! The Mods here do an outstanding job of keeping any spam, arguments and bullying off this wonderful site.

I came here from a very short visit to another site as well. It was FULL of bullies, fighting, snide remarks, cut-downs, foul language and arrogance. There were about 4 people there who were nice people and actually stayed on topic.

This place is like HEAVEN! Politeness, courtesy, tact and friendliness are the norm here. Plus, each thread stays on topic, (mostly), until the OP's question or subject is covered very well. Then, like most threads in most forums, they drift into obscurity.

I'm very glad that this thread has taken off so well. The pics of the foods have given me many, many ideas!

Bravo and Kudos to the Mods here! You've done well!

Thanks Lisa! Yep, I love bacon!
Thanks Matthew! I guess you could just call them stuffed jalapeños then, lol.

It really is not that big of a dish. I make it and eat the leftovers. I also made some changes to my recipe. I leave out the potatoes, because by the time they cook the other veggies are too well done for my tastes. I don't put the onions on the bottom, I thinly slice and replace the potatoes with them. I use dill instead of Thyme.

I was thinking the same thing about the taters. I think I would use the canned "new" potatoes which are already cooked, and buy them sliced already, that wouldn't change the flavor much.

I love bacon, Pac. I'm glad you named the ABTs. I always forget what they really are. Stuffed jalapenos just makes more sense.

Oh my, gimme gimme gimme!

Thank you. The most time comsuming part is making the crepes. But TOTALLY worth it.

Pacanis all I can say is OINK and YUMMY! All those pics are wonderful but gimme BACON!! LOL

Canned potatoes would work, but you will be adding sodium. Please post and let me know how this turns out.

Good info. I think I'll slice my potatoes thin compared to the squash. Thanks for the tip.

 

[pacanis]

Thanks MsM.
That reminds me... I need to get more bacon. I hope it goes on sale soon.

You're right, I'll back off on the added salt a bit to compensate for the salt in the canned taters.

I'll make a post right here in this thread after trying it.
