What's on the menu for everyone today??

Screwed up yesterday, today is when we're going to the Oyster House, duh. Yesterday we drove to Canyon Lake (what a beautiful area!) and had Buffalo wings while watching the Paddle Wheeler. Later stopped for a burger at some dive.

REally looking forward to today. Did get to The Pork Shop and what a pork palace that place is!! Got lots of goodies.
Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.

Freezer diving is tricky business if you don't label your leftovers. Tonight's dinner was suppose to be ropa vieja, it turned out to be beef bourguignon.

I keep trying to remember to label stuff - but . . . we've had some surprise dinners.

Tonight is a casserole my Grandmother used to make for "ladies' lunches". It's all out of the pantry except for cheese. WOW two recipes for the cookbook in two nights.
You only live once . . . but if you do it right once should be enough!

Trixxee, I'm finally making the Chile Colorado Burritos. Finally found the recipe.

My question is how you liked them with refried beans in them? I assume you warmed them before adding them to the burrito? Or did you have the beans on the side?

Oops, just now saw this Daphne. I always do beans on the side. I use a can of Sun Vista pinto beans, drain out about half the liquid, bring to a simmer and add cumin, chili powder, mexican oregano and smash them up myself with a potato masher.

I'm not wild about the canned refried beans. I like to control the texture.

Welcome. Just thought of something - I also add a little pat of butter to make them creamier. Just not the same without it.
