I’m making egg salad now. A ginormous batch of 18 eggs LOL

 

[ShrekDawg]

I cooked all 18 but separately (only 10 fit in my pot at a time so I did 10 and 8) but only made the egg salad out of the first 10. I figured I can make more later. I was kind of sick of peeling anyways.

So…

I want to start cooking more and expanding my horizons so to speak LOL

SO!

I figured I would make a thread for this!!!!

Feel free to follow along if you want.

I already have a plan for meal number one LOL

Fajitas!!!!!!

I will thaw out the chicken in the freezer soon and cook it with these (peppers and onions) and maybe some taco seasoning and put it on a Carb Balance tortilla shell and some shredded Mexican cheese.

This would be a good idea for my egg breakfasts I take to work. I always forget to buy fresh peppers and onions.

Yum! I love French toast.

I remember as a kid my grandmother would make the BEST french toast ever. She would make the whole loaf and it would be gone within a day.

So I tried to make chicken salad out of the remaining chicken last night (not the pepper and onion one, I still had a bunch in a separate bowl) despite having already put taco seasoning on it because I figured pulled/shredded might be easier for me to eat and my dad had said the taco seasoning might be good in it. So I decided to try it. Well, that was a complete and utter disaster!!!!!! Total failure. But hey, that’s why the thread is called Dawg’s cooking EXPERIMENTS, right!?!?!?!?!

What happened was the chicken was very hard/tough for some reason and I couldn’t get it with my fork even with mayo added so I brilliantly decided to try my blender which also has a food chop setting. Did. Not. Work. No matter what setting I tried it on (Food Chop which is even pulses or just regular blender on low, medium, or high which I tried all of them) it just got stuck and Would. Not. Grind. The. Chicken. Up. So I turned it off. Then the tiny part it did sort of grind got stuck in the blades which was a disaster too. So I got what I could out and put it all back in the bowl and tried by hand again with two forks. It was still too hard. I gave up and put it back in my fridge and there it sits. And the blender is soaking. But I did taste some of the mayo taco seasoning mixture and that did taste good so at least there’s that LOL but yeah. I need one of those egg slicer thingies with the multiple rows of blades that just slices stuff into the perfect size little cubes hahaha or maybe I should try one of my knives instead of just a fork??????? IDK. LOL but all I know is the blender was a complete and utter failure. And I also have tried it for egg salad once too and that one actually worked but it also got stuck in the base and I couldn’t get any of it out and wasted a ton of it so that one was a failure too. So idk why I thought this one would be any different. LOL

I usually toss my tougher meat in the crockpot to soften it up some.
