• Lentil Soup, it's what's for Dinner 1/17/24

    From jmcquown@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jan 17 18:10:34 2024
    Winter has finally hit South Carolina. No snow and certainly not low temperatures comparable to much of North America but relatively
    speaking, it's cold here.

    Lentil soup is tasty and will hit the spot. I sauteed minced onion and
    garlic in a medium size pot. Added the lentils and chicken broth and
    some thawed loose leaf spinach as a green vegetable component. Lentils
    take no time at all to cook. I'm baking a skillet of cornbread to go
    with it.

    Earlier this week, I made a big batch of orange lentil soup - a very
    different recipe from yours, but just as tasty!

    Mine used stock from a baked ham (and chunks of the ham), sweet onion,
    celery, carrots, potatoes, and swede/rutabaga.
    Served with toasted and buttered home baked whole wheat bread, and Irish cheddar.

    Different ingredients available and on hand. Lentil soup is quite nice! :)

    like beans they are very versatile. i like that they
    cook at about the same rate as brown rice so they go well
    together. plain rice doesn't do much for me while i can
    eat lentils about any time at all. :)

    too bad that Mom does not like them (but she is ok with
    adzuki beans which are pretty similar in taste and texture).
    just how different some people can be... :) :) :)

    A bowl of lentil soup (and many other types of soup) make a nice filling evening meal and that's all I require to call it dinner. Do tell us

    He wouldn't even notice a bowl of lentils rattling around in his hippo

    The extra tall layered sandwich (with golf tees embedded in it) seems to

    You can't just say you ate that and not add ethnic origins. So the

    It was normal. I did put some dehydrated onions on the burger and smashed them in before flipping it but that was pretty much it. I love dehydrated onions.

    Are they trending with the younger generation?

    What you post here whether out to eat or home cooked is some of the

    Its just the cornbread. They don't serve soup in prisons (or

    What you post here whether out to eat or home cooked is some of the>
    best IMO. Asian style, Mexican style... I'm in.

    Dinner tonight was Hawaiian food. The thing about Hawaiian food is that
    the range of dishes are limited. The food was from the mall and we're fortunate to have a place that serves pretty good food. We had a
    laulau, lomi lomi salmon, poi, squid luau, and haupia. These are
    Hawaiian dishes that are pretty much required at a luau. I wish there
    were more items in Hawaiian cooking but there aren't. I don't know why
    that is. The poi was quite a treat. It was smooth and cool with a
    slight prickling on the tongue - probably from carbon dioxide in the
    poi.

    I've been to a couple of tourist style luau's in Hawaii .. never saw
    that "stuff" with the exception of the awful poi. Glad you liked it ..
    but It is really hard to look at.

    Lentil soup isn't a dinner, even with the nasty cornbread (prison
    food).

    You miss so much good food with your dogmatic attitudes.

    Can you please try and be little more ironically hypocritical?

    And I didn't say I didn't like lentil soup. But I don't like

    So don't eat cornbread. Make something with corn torillas instead. ;)

    A bowl of lentil soup (and many other types of soup) make a nice filling
    evening meal and that's all I require to call it dinner. Do tell us
    about your experience with lentil soup (or is it just the cornbread?) as
    "prison food".

    Its just the cornbread. They don't serve soup in prisons (or
    jails - unless you're on a doctor-ordered liquid diet).

    I believe you about them not baking cornbread. They don't serve soup in
    jails? Really? Hmmm, explain to me the cup of vegetable beef soup
    (likely heated up from industrial sized cans) someone I know was given
    to eat after they spent the night in the drunk tank back in the 1990's.
    They were given a cup of soup and a bologna sandwich on white bread. I
    know this because I went to pick the person up after they were released ROR.

    When you are picked up for public drunkenness here if you do your mandatory
    8 hours without posting bail, you are released with no charges and a clean record.

    I guess it would be a bit harsh to get a criminal record for public
    drunkenness if you didn't hurt anyone or anything.

    ROR does indeed mean released on own recognizance. I has nothing to do
    with the person who was arrested and spent time in jail overnight not
    being served *soup*. Convenient snipping of what I wrote:

    Do they get released right away when they post bond, instead of after

    It can still take a few hours to get processed and paper work done. They might as

    Indeed it is funny looking food for tourists. I don't know any way to

    poi. The poi we get in the store is bagged up and sold. The plate was
    from the Waiole Poi Factory in the mall. It has a different taste and
    texture - it's light and airy and not gooey. Beats me why that is.
    The interesting thing about poi is that it doesn't cause my blood
    glucose level to spike. It seems to stabilize my numbers. Rice is
    awfully spiky food.

    Every diabetic is different though. If you like sweet potatoes, likely
    you tolerate them well. Also brown rice breaks down slower so might be
    an option that will be a little better.
