Guest guest Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 This was a favorite recipe that my grandmother would make when she came to visit us, which was often. Smile. Love to eat it right out of the oven hot, but it is also good on a sandwich, sliced and put on hearty homemade Whole Wheat Bread with Mayo/Veganaise the next day. It is good on crackers also. Yours to Enjoy, Judy Meato's 1 cup Peanut Butter 2 c. Petite Diced tomatoes with Green Chilies or Jalopeno's 1 tsp. Sage 1 c. Onion, diced 1 tsp. Salt 3/4 c. flour(more or less) Mix all the ingredients, adding the flour until it is thick like cornbread mixture. Put into a sprayed casserole dish. Bake @ 350 for about 1 hr.

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 This is really different sounding to me, but very cool! I wonder why it is called " meatos " ? *lol* I will have to try this because I love peanut butter with sauted onions for a sandwich. Now do you use regular commercial brands [or non-natural] peanut butter in this recipe, or do you use a natural no-additive peanut butter with good results? I use Adam's brand which has only peanuts, a little peanut oil and some salt. I was raised on Jif... ~ PT ~ Who can mistake great thoughts?

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 Any peanut butter will work in it. I don't know if this was a recipe my grandmother came up with on her own and named or if she found it in a cookbook with that name. Sorry. Despite the unusual combination of ingredients it is surprisingly VERY GOOD. It is great as either an entree or a sandwich spread. Try it and let me know what you think.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 I spoke with my mom this week, about where my grandmother got this recipe. She said that when my grandmother became a Seventh Day Adventist(they encourage a vegetarian diet), one of the dear ladies in the church shared this recipe with her. Meat substitutes were not around at that time. This became a staple in their house, but they made it without the green chilies or jalopenos added to the tomatoes. I like the heat so I make it with those added to the tomatoes. Feel free to make it with just reg. canned diced tomatoes thought if you don't like the heat. I hope you get to try it. Enjoy, Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Thanks for the helps and hints Judy... i bet it was the sugar in the PB. I can't do the reg diced toms. and chopped green chilies- cos as far as I can see- we can't get them here. I will check the mexican food area next time we get for groceries though. And I will try a little more flour too- I added a cup at least I would say- but of course the variety/brand of tomatoes would make the difference too. Not sure if this is a good or bad thing to write- but our dog just loves it! lol She can be quite picky but she really scarfed this right up! lol I look forward to others' reviews as they try it. Thanks again- hope your weekend is great! Sharon in SA - " wwjd " <jtwigg Saturday, June 24, 2006 8:59 PM Re: ]RE: Meatos recipe > HUmmm it came out sweet? Maybe that came from the salsa.

Guest guest Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Yes I find the canned chopped green chilies in the mexican section of the grocery store. If you like it hotter though, cut us some of those pickled jalopenos instead in it. You're welcome. LOL about the pup.

Guest guest Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 That's so cool. Thanks for telling us about how you came to this recipe. It must make it more special to you since it has so many fond memories attached to it from time spent in the kitchen with your Grandmother. ~ PT ~ Many a friendship -- long, loyal, and self-sacrificing -- rested at first upon no thicker a foundation than a kind word. ~ Frederick W.
