The What's For Dinner Tonight Chat

[Adalaide]

i'm sort of bummed at my roommate. He came home with salmon cakes and salmon loaf that were clearly identified as containing gluten. I'm feeling sanctimonious that I didn't Mace him or something. Gosh, I better go shopping tomorrow. Waa.

If you're the kind of person who counts the good deeds you do, this totally counts. Some days, the fact that you made it through without committing homicide is a good deed.

Isn't he a bit overdressed for an interview?

Quite easily rectified. I'm sure there are more than enough of us willing to help with that.

[IrishHeart]

GO DINNER CHAT TEAM!!

Look! She morphed into 2! cool .

Isn't he a bit overdressed for an interview?

Poor guy is starting off on the wrong foot already....tsk tsk

True!

Is he still with us

Poor guy probably has no idea how close he came to getting his ass kicked.... right, Marilyn?

[Marilyn R]

He just admitted that he cooked the salmon on our dedicated gluten-free gas grill. (I had eggs.)

Come on down girl's it's time to put a whuppin' on him. Bring on the pirates.

(He swore he'd scrub it tomorrow ...)

All I asked was if he could pick up some fish. We live in Florida!

In case anybody's wondering, he is, so far, unscathed, living breathing.

I am skilled in the art of a$$-kick. Lemme know where and when.

You said " roommate". Is this a " just helping pay the rent" roommate? Or a sleep in the same bed roommate? Because a sleep in the same bed roommate might be sleeping in his car.

[Takala]

WTF somebody lives in Florida and they come home with, first, salmon,and secondly, glutenoid salmon ? That takes some special kind of talent. Then they put this stuff on the grill as if heat can make the problemo go adios. Is 2013 the Year of Magical Thinking ? You'd better tell him not to show up next with imitation crab

Okay, guys, I'm going to have to take computer lessons from Ginny, because all I can do is post a URL for y'all, but here is the ultimate bacon melange:

That is EXACTLY what the internet is for, fantastic. Would it be impractical to make cabana boys from bacon?

Well, we would have to keep remaking them because they would go off pretty quick

[Celiac Mindwarp]

I guess putting 2 good things together doesn't necessarily improve either of them .

Maybe this new diet is so weird in its combinations that my brain is a bit scrambled...

[IrishHeart]

Scrambled brain ...that goes with bacon....

a Kevin Bacon... made of bacon! Brilliant and tasty.

Cabana boyz made of bacon too?

even Marilyn's roommate whose bacon is now fried because he did a dopey thing.

that's funny, suddenly , I want bacon.

[GottaSki]

This just in.....the fat in bacon is good fat!!!

Especially good for improving the mood in those on limited diets

You're just preaching to the choir, Ski!

hey, all I did was "recap the last 5 posts about bacon ". You people are the loopsters! I am perfectly sane.

Great article. Written by the same author who wrote The Whole Soy Story. If you are still eating gobs of soy, read that book.

You won't eat it again.

Any recipe ideas?

Sora, I love short ribs. The following are amongst my favourites:
