Buckle up hungry readers, we have reached stage 2 cooking. Now usually the number 1 rule when requesting recipes from MOM is 5 ingredients or less - I'm poor but more importantly expertly frugal. Well tonight's meal does not apply...
Not only is that 14 over the legal limit but the spice count alone blows a .08... But after 3 years behind the wheel of these pots and pans I have actually amassed a spice rack that can handle this bad boy.
The problem was with poor planning is I didn't have onions or the can o' stewed tomatoes. Not a problem, very overrated ingredients anyways. Now there are few things I like more than some good Momma Made Jambayla....
Personal performance:B+
For a spur of the moment dish, job well done. A small part of me definitely resides in the Bayou though. I have a gift for making it just hot enough so that the sinuses begin to drip.
Great blog...your mom has been talking. :-) You are an entertaining writer.
ReplyDeleteHere's a tip from another frugal cook regarding this recipe...nice, sweet onions can be bought in bulk from Sam's Club. You can go crazy and buy the 50 lb. bag (and split them with all of your family members and neighbors), which is the best price or buy the 5 lb. bag and 1/3 of the onions won't rot in your garage.
I'd like to know your secret ingredients for "just hot enough so that the sinuses begin to drip."
