Hey PaddyD15, Sounds like a great idea. I'd go to the local book store and see who is doing what and at what price they are selling it for. I have no idea where you live, but the bigger the city you are in the easier it will be to target a price. I'd also do a search on the internet for...

Yes

That's what happened, I imagine. Perhaps it was too loosely wrapped in my bag and when warm air hit it, condensation occurred. That's a possibility too. It was not frozen for very long. A couple of days max. That's why I think you need to pack a sandwich air tight as possible. One is not going...

First I can find no info on LaCruse' are you sure it's not a Le Creuset ? If it is a Le Creuset there should be no problem using the baking vessel again. Wash it thoroughly with regular kitchen soap and hot water before it's next use. Le Creuset are built like old fashioned bath tubs and can...

The best way to tell if it's a good idea is to make one sandwich freeze it, thaw it and eat it. You will be the best judge of the results. Otherwise: Real mayonnaise does not freeze well. Use a mayonnaise substitute. The spicy mustard, meat and cheese shouldn't be a problem freezing. Pack...

Chili on a bun was standard fare as a kid. I like my hot chili with french fries. Cold leftover chili on whole wheat sliced bread with mustard.

Excellent tutorial! Thanks for taking all those great photos, it does make it so much easier to understand. I can't wait to try it your technique. I will call the bread a "Valencic Loaf" :smile::smile:

Not to be a pain in the neck or anything but, I actually did mention within normal range here is what I said: I understand your point about your mother or boyfriends behavior. You are correct that educating "you" will not change "them". In the case of younger diabetics it is "them" that need...

Sorry about that Ms. Elf Yes I read the posting and the OP states: "now with the blood sugar effecting her thinking" This is utter nonsense! A diabetic is exactly the same as anyone else when their blood sugar is within the normal range. If the sugar levels are so off that the persons...

Thanks for your take on that. #1 The OP states "she is on a strict diet" I wanted to highlight some techniques to lessen the rigidity of her menu. The senior citizen in question does not like what she's being given to eat. Under appropriate supervision, the ability to be a little more...

Two of the many facets of maintaining good health as a diabetic are: one- what you take in (eat) two- how you treat what you take in (insulin required) Appropriately monitoring both should result in little or no risk. Speak to the treating endocrinologist about a sliding insulin scale and/or...

Well I guess I should ask the same question; where do you live? Here is a quote from The Economic Research Service of the United States Department of Agriculture: "How Much Do Americans Pay For Fruits And Vegetables?- One argument for not consuming fruits and vegetables is that they are too...

Just to get back to the beginning of this thread and add my 2 cents.... Really "poor" people ain't never overweight. Foods aren't unhealthy, it's how you eat 'em is. America is a power house of provisions. All the "good for you" staple items in America are as cheap and as plentiful as can be...

I see 3 links to spice blend recipes in this thread. 2 of the recipes contain garlic powder. This is probably what is causing your mix to "cake up" Garlic powder is a magnet for moisture which causes the caking. Swap the garlic powder for granulated garlic. The two items are virtually...

This Kobe-Wagyu stuff looks like a chunk of fat with some meat in it. No wonder it tastes good and is so easy to cut. How hard is it to slice through cooked beef fat? No Laguiole required here, looks like a plastic picnic knife will do the trick :smile: Do they send these cows to a...
