Working-with-your-hands Wednesday

 Now we're cooking!

  1. I love throwing a bunch of whatever in with a starch.
    Rice might be the most versatile for that, potatoes and pasta aren't quite as versatile.
    I make lots of weird stuff with it and then douse it in Frank's Red Hot.

    1. I agree. You can mix practically anything with rice. It's pretty much a staple in our house. Mrs. Paco, through experimentation, even discovered Grandma Paco's secret recipe of rice cooked in milk. So delicious with a beef gravy!

    2. Rice cooked in milk? Interesting.
      I'll have to try that.
      Instead of water or mixed with water?
      And just about anything is delicious with beef gravy.

  2. My favorite breakfast is a scrambled egg mixed with chopped ham, sharp cheddar bits, and mixed vegetables (peas, corn, chopped carrots, onions, tomatoes, and peppers), all wrapped in a soft tortilla, and yes, sprinkled with Red Hot.

    1. That said, I also like dirty rice and jambalaya.

    2. I do something like that, except it's bacon and homefries, not ham and rice.
      Mmmmmmm mmmm.

  3. Just had some Bojangles dirty rice this afternoon (and a steak biscuit). Now that's comfort food!

  4. Of course, tomorrow I'll be paying the piper with a total fasting day.
