We had homemade stromboli last night.  The kids love it - my 3yo asked for some for breakfast this morning!

One crisis at a time, please.

There are a lot of things I will eat and have eaten, but skunk would NOT be on my *must try* list.  sickbyc

Tonight will be beef stew (it's in the crockpot), French bread, and salad.  DD has band practice after school so I needed something I could make ahead of time.

Zookeeper - Here's the recipe for the French bread and directions for the bowls. I let my bread machine do all the work, then form, rise and bake!

1 1/2  cups   water
4 cups          bread flour
1 TBSP         sugar
2 1/2 tsps    salt
2 1/4 tsps    yeast

1 egg white mixed with water for glazing loaves

Mix and knead until elastic, about 10 minutes. Let rise until double. Punch down and roll dough into a log.

Cut dough into 5 (or 6 for smaller bowls) equal portions. Form dough into ball shape, folding and tucking to remove air. Place on pan with seam side down. Let rise until double in size.

Brush rounds with egg wash.

Bake at 375 degrees about 20-25 minutes.

When cool, remove top 1/4 of bread bowl. Carefully cut out (or pull) bread from the inside, leaving about 1/4 inch of bread around sides and bottom. Place on plate (or bowl) and fill with soup. Tuck the "lid" alongside.

I use the "wasted" bread for breadcrumbs, croutons, or bread pudding.

I hope you enjoy them! smile

We're having shepherd's pie with the leftover taco meat. Added some sour cream and jalps to mine,...mmmm It's almost like a taco potato.
We really had pork chops, the kids were so upset that Jim called animal control to pick up the skunk, so he told them it was skunk. They ate every bite, just afraid Alyssa went to school and told them we fed her skunk!

I remember Bear Grylls of Man vs. Wild eating skunk and saying it tasted like it was smeared with poo.  sickbyc 

We had seared pork chops and garlic confetti rice tonight.

lol..Then that would be the food that Jim cooks....outside, and don't even begin to try to bring it in.
He already has the rule that lobster and scallops are cooked outside. I hate washing the pots as it is when he cooks it, don't even add the smell too. lol

skand - Jim and the girls sound like adventurous eaters.... along the lines of Ted Nugent! Kill it and grill it! big_smile

I made a Pizza Rustica (Italian cheese pie made with 4 cheeses, eggs, salami and Italian sausage) tonight with sliced tomatoes drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar on the side.
