What's for supper tonight?

A favorite at the Coco household ... Chicken Tetrazini

Chicken, broccoli, carrots cooked in a skillet with a creamy garlic sause, then poured over pasta.

I think I gained a couple pounds in one meal!

 

After finishing Christmas shopping this afternoon, the wife and I took advantage of the Applebee's 2 for $20 deal. Buffalo chicken wings for starters, then I had riblet basket. Shooters for desert. That was a good meal.

 

Leftover Chinese takeout.

 

Roast Beef, the Mac and Cheese recipe Moddy raved about on Crossed Giblets of Death, and German Carrots

 

I'm making that mac & cheese tomorrow night. Can't wait to taste it!

 

What are German Carrots?

 

Carrots with sauerkraut?

 

IF I don't go shopping, PB&J.

If I do, something frozen (I'll warm it first, stupidheads)

 

Carrots in beer, I believe.

 

I may go out for a beer and grab a sandwich. Not sure yet. That's sounding to be a good idea, though.

 

Something my grandmother used to make back in that fine German neighborhood of Harper and Cadieux.... I have no idea why, but they've always been called that in our family. Maybe it was because my grandmother was of German descent and it was a recipe handed down...
Anyway...

Take about 4-5 slices of bacon, cut them up into 1/2-3/4 inch pieces and cook on medium in a skillet to get the fat down.
Add about half a chopped yelllow onion and cook them down in the bacon/fat mixture until brown. Don't overcook
Add carrots -- cut like you would be making carrot sticks -- to the skillet.
Turn the heat down to medium low; add a couple of tablespoons of water, salt and pepper to taste (maybe half a teaspoon of salt and a quarter for the pepper) and cover. Cook on medium-low for about a half hour or until soft (the carrots will cook down).
A pound will be enough for 3-4 people; two pounds of carrots for 6-8.
