Dinner

[Guest guest]

Hi-

 

Tonight we are having " Hamburger " barley soup.

 

Basically it contains 8 oz tomato sauce, 28 oz can of

chopped tomatoes, 1/2 c chopped celery, 1 chopped

green pepper, 1 c minced onion, 3 sliced carrots,

veggie beef crumbles, 1/3 c barley, 3-4 veggie

boullion cubes, 2 bay leaves, water. I am serving it

with corn bread (does Quaker Corn meal contain GMOs?)

and a leafy green salad.

 

My 2 year old son loves this soup!

 

Thanks to everyone else for sharing your dinner ideas.

Last night I made a " stew " (I make these throw it all in the pot dishes a lot!)

It contained vegetable broth as the base; yellow split peas, potatoes,

eggplant, mushrooms, onion, fresh garlic, zucchini, corn, peas, an carrots.

When this was sell cooked (the potatoes almost mushy as to make the veggie

broth thicker. I added a box (4) Boca italian sausages, cooked and cut into

chunks. Spiced it with blk pepper, cumin, garlic (yes more - we love garlic)

and some basil and rosemary. Pretty good, not my best, but no complaints from

the family!

<I just wanted to mention that if they're fried, they're not " officially "

spring rolls. They'd normally be called egg rolls, but obviously that's

not quite right in this instance. Spring rolls are cold, with raw

ingredients and wrapper.>

 

Really? So what are those things that get served at Chinese Restaurants and are

called by them " spring rolls " ? They also fry them or stir-fry them, and the

ingredients inside are cooked. Wouldn't an egg roll have to be made with an

egg-based wrap? These were made with the rice-based wrap, which in the front

said " spring roll wrap " and in the back had 3 different recipes for spring

rolls, and they were all fried at the end. Is this just a big

" westernalization " ? (our calling them " spring rolls " ) where did you learn the

difference? Sorry for all the question, you really made me curious.

Hmmm... I'm just wondering about this spring roll

thing.....

 

My husband is Malaysian and spring rolls are quite

common there. I have been served spring rolls many

times in homes, restaurants, clubs and parties both

here and abroad ( in Malaysia, Singapore,and London)

And they have always been fried. In fact I have tried

several brands of springroll wrappers from an oriental

food shop near me and the instructions always say to

pan or deep fry. The same in my cookbooks. I thought

that perhaps the difference was the wrapper and

whether they contain eggs, but no that can't be it I

read some packages at the store and some did and some

didn't contain eggs.

 

Are you perhaps refering to the japanese style which

are often called vegetarian sushi?

 

Those are the only type I have heard of that are cold

and uncooked, besides california rolls or tortilla

wraps.

 

Sorry, if you are refering to somthing different, I

only know my experiences.

 

Debbie
