Last Meal?

Posted in Musings on August 3, 2007 by coffeymuse

Interesting question over on Chew on That about last suppers. What would you eat for a last supper?

Me, I want a whole day.

Start out with an early breakfast of leftover Thanksgiving goodies: asparagus casserole and a turkey/mashed potatoes/gravy/noodles all mix together. Served hot and steaming. Ice tea to drink, please.

Mid-morning snack would be fried green tomatoes, cucumbers, and zucchini.

Lunch would be pasta salad, pea salad, and a lettuce salad. The lettuce salad would be ham, cheese, fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, french fried onions, and ranch dressing. Crackers on the side and more ice tea.

Mid-afternoon snack would be thick, chocolaty, fudgey brownies. With cherry pie filling on top and milk.

Just before dinner sneak out and get a hamburger (the .59 cent one) and a large french fry from McD’s.

Supper would be pork roast with potatoes and cabbage cooked in the broth. Corn, frozen to start with and cook just to perfection. 90 minutes rolls and a gallon of tea.

For dessert it would be pineapple cake with cream cheese icing. Ice water, tea, milk?

And as I was getting ready to meat death it would be Jelly Bellies and Dr Pepper.

What would be your list?

Getting Behind

I’ve got several recipes to post. We’ll get there I promise. So today…

Italian Goulash

1/2 pound of hamburger

Dried minced onion

Garlic Salt

2-3 cups cooked small egg bowties

Can of petite diced tomatoes

Italian Seasoning

Parsley flakes

I browned the hamburger with onion and garlic salt. While that is going I cooked the noodles. Once cooked, I drained the noodles and added a tablespoon of butter. Drain hamburger when done. Add noodles and tomatoes to pan. Sprinkle with Italian seasonings, parsley flakes, and garlic salt. (No specifics here-to your taste, palate, and family enjoy). Cover and let cook on med-low for five minutes or so. When most of the tomato juice is soaked up, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serves two or three.

This was a throw together dinner that was beyond belief good. Definitely will make this again!
