Got a hankering for some good ole "Chicken and Dumplings"
(thin, light dumpling strips.....not those awful dough balls..ugh!)
So...that's what will be for Sunday supper....served with some corn meal fried okra, and a big fresh tomato, cuke, green onion and romaine salad....and a tall iced tea.

To top it all off...some home made green tea ice cream on a bed of crushed mint leaves.

 

[D_Bob_Crotchitch]

A big fat juicy hamburger from the local grocery store.

I plan come comfort food....need it today.

Tennessee Chicken:
(A depression dish)

Fry in a large iron skillet, pieces of streak-o-lean bacon (1/2 lb cut into small 1" pieces) until browned...not burnt.
Pour off the grease and save...and drain bacon pieces on paper towels.

Add into the iron skillet some flour (about 1/2 cup with a 1/4tps salt) and cook on a low heat...do not burn the flour.
Slowly add about 2 TBS of the grease and some milk (about 2 cup) into the hot flour to make a thin roux.
Add bacon into the roux.
Add 2 sliced hard boiled eggs.
ENJOY alone or over hot biscuits!

This is an old Depression Area dish that my grandmother used to lovinglyn serve on Sunday nights....to remind themselves and others...what little they had during those
terrible days in the late 1920's and 1930's. When they had the eggs they would add them as a special treat...but I understand
it was usually just served plain...lots of flour and milk flavored
with the bacon. Filling and cheap.

I love it and since it was served to me as a child...I knew no difference and thought it a treat too. I still do!

Today I serve it with a big Greek syle salad...and lots of Iced tea...

The spicy chai works really well with chocolate.

Lasagna made with sausage and three layers of ricotta. A whole lot better than ground beef meat sauce and cottage cheese. Yummy!!!

Chocolate and Chai?

Chocolate and Chai?

Hmm. Two great tastes that to me don't necessarily go well together.....Well, ya learn something every day.

There are a few tricks to making it work....use a very restrained hand with the syrup..
I'm talking about a teaspoon and a half of syrup per bowl maximum and don't use a chai blend that is too heavy in cloves.
