Think you can cook?

I don't think, I know. :)

SHOW OFF YOUR RECIPE PHOTOS HERE!

Why would I want to do that?

[morgaine300]

OK, you want a picture. Here's a picture. It's called a Mango Lassi. It's an Indian drink - just Google it.

(How come no matter how small I make a photo, it comes out here the same size - huge?)

Grr I hate it when I don't get notifications on when people post on my threads!

Yes that meant curry chicken lol. I also love to cook.

I am making pretzels right now. I am seriously going to have to start running. All this baking is going to fatten me right up. Just sayin'...

That drink looks delicious. Do you have the recipe for it?

[Aurora_Bell]

MMMmmmMMM Pretzels...

Are you using that dang new skin? If so, I could understand the confusion. (I did wonder why no one came back.)

That drink looks delicious. Do you have the recipe for it?

Um, um... let me see if I saved it... Well, dang I didn't. Let's see if I can find it, or a reasonable facsimile thereof.

Well, here's one: 2 cubed mangoes, 2 cups yogurt, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup ice, all squishticated in the blender. (Scrap often or it won't get smooth.)

Some people think this is too sweet. But mango has no good flavor/sweetness on its own without "something," and the sugar really does help. Also, I use either the big mangos, or double the small yellow ones. One of the bigger mangoes should yield about 1-1/2 cups chopped. So some people who think this is sweet also might be using those small ones. You can use plain or vanilla yogurt or whatever. I usually use vanilla. You may not need as much ice if you use frozen mango, although if it pretty much melts, it's the only liquid to help blend it. You can experiment with the sugar and ice how you like. This also makes like 2 big servings (like smoothies would be).

I've done pretzels before. Don't have time for that kind of thing much.

I'm trying to force myself to make some dinner right now. I'm re-making something I made a while back and forgot what it was like. But it requires me chopping raw chicken, which is just yuck so I tend to put it off. But once that is done, the rest is easy.

[Aurora_Bell]

I am going to try that drink. Sounds/looks good.

The pretzels we SO time consuming. Not something I would make on a regular basis, but was fun to try it out anyway.

I am going to make perogies next. Those are really time consuming as well. My grandmother always used make these things we called "flat tires", but later was told it was a Russian (I think) and was pronounced fla tya. Not sure on that spelling. But it's a pastry like dough with spicy ground beef and onions in side.

Fla tya and pirogies!! OMG, I'm missing my mommie all of the sudden.

What do you fill your pirogies with? Mom, who has all of these old polish and czech (she is czech) recipies fills them with cottage cheese.

Where is the online AMHD recipie order form for the book ?

Must be by the Tshirt stand somewhere?

[Aurora_Bell]

Usually I do the cheese potato, but I add bacon and onion too. Sometimes I use cream cheese too. Cottage cheese would be awesome. How much cottage cheese to potato did she use? Or was it only cottage cheese?

Wow I can't believe someone else knows what fla tya's are! I'm half tempted to courier you some down! :p

We should start a thread and have every post 1 or 2 of their fave recipes and we could print it or something. That would be awesome.

I think probably in the toaster aisle.

[morgaine300]

Oh, can't handle perogies. Those are more time-consuming than pretzels. But I'll do time consuming on occasion if it's worth it.

Perogies look like they'd be good. But they're just soggy dough. Blech!

I've never heard of the Russian things, but if that's just plain old dough (like a tart/pie), then I'd like something like that if I like what's inside.

[Aurora_Bell]

You boil the perogies and then fry them. No soggy dough there. Fried with onion and garlic served with sour cream or ketchup (I preferably like to mix the sour cream and ketchup together)... mmmm

Yeah, it's that boiling part I don't like. I've had homemade and I've had the frozen kind. Didn't like any of them.

I do, however, like potatoes, and I'm about to go make some spiced up ones in the oven to go with the leftover chicken thingy from last night.

So how'd this all get started? I don't even have a bread machine but somehow ended up on this thread.

Cottage cheese only and smothered in real butter.

[Aurora_Bell]

OHH it's got to be real butter!! MMMmmmMMM

[morgaine300]

Real butter is better for you anyway, I don't care what anyone says.
