Your glutton food

casualmadness · #1 01-30-2008, 08:20 AM

DO you have a food that you love so much, you can't control yourself around it? Even if you're full, will you still eat it? What is it? I have one. It's cheese. I love cheese. I'm actually soemthing of a cheese snob. I constantly look for specialty markets where I can buy imported cheeses that are crazy expensive; not because I'm trying to impress anyone; but because I love cheese and I'm always looking for different flavors. But I try to limit my buying as whe cheese is in my house I will snack on it until it's gone. What's your glutton food?

Cheese here too, especially in combination with some crackers and a good wine.

I've also lately always kept a brie cheese (the french dïherival) in my fridge to put on the sandwiches in the morning. I also use a lot of cheese in food, especially blue cheese. It's perfect with pasta.

Also chocolate and some desserts and cakes fall into the same category.

hob nobs or caramel shortbread

Spaghetti. Easily.

Freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. When my brother and I decide to cook up a batch, we eat until we feel sick. It's so painfully wonderful.

Reese's peanut butter cups.

Popcorn of any form.

+1 on all of that except the popcorn.

Sometime I would like to weigh myself before I eat as much spaghetti as I wanted, and then weigh myself again. I have no doubt that I can down two of three pounds of spaghetti (assuming that it's good) with no problem at all.

Spaghetti is good stuff...

Oh god... I foresee a Spaghetti thread...

Okay. Can't plan it for this weekend cuz it's Super Bowl Sunday and that means burgers and beer.

So next weekend. We all gotta get ourselves some serious spaghetti, and post pics.

Pretty much any pasta.

Used to be bad with Pringles, and small snack things like Matchsticks etc, you could eat through a whole pack and be left sitting there going "I didnt manage to finish that did i?"

Another for me is guava paste. Especially when combined with a nice slaty cheese like white chese or a very sharp chedar....oh man, I'll eat an entire can in one sitting.

Pasta (in all forms)

Cheese too.

Passinwind · #17 01-30-2008, 09:02 AM

Lasagna, especially if I make it. Cheese, cheese, cheese, cheese... and how about a little more cheese?

Valerus · #18 01-30-2008, 09:08 AM

Ice cream
Skittles
Snickerdoodle cookies

Texas classics!!! If you ever attend a Sunday afternoon church supper in TX or the nearby states, you can find these. King Ranch Cassarole was created by a woman in one of the original ranch-hand families on the King. My husband used to work with one of her decendants! I've been able to fix both of these dishes since I was a kid.

King Ranch Cassarole

Preheat over to 350F.

Boil and bone a chicken. Tear it up and put it in a bowl. Add a can of Rotel (two for a big pan) and cream of mushroom soup (again, two for a big pan). Add to that the appropriate number of soup cans of chicken broth. Mix well.

Grate at least a 1/2 moon of longhorn cheddar and set aside.

Grease a big baking pan (I like glass), and line it with corn tortillas or, in a pinch, corn chips. Pour half the chicken mixture over it, and half the cheese. Start again with more corn tortillas, the rest of the chicken mix, and the rest of the cheese. I like to run the tortillas up the sides just a little, so the goodness inside is less liable to scorch.

Bake at 350F until bubbling and the edges are browned...'bout an hour.

While you are boiling that chicken...

Cherry Pineapple Dump Cake

Grease another pan and sprinkle Bisquick or yellow cake mix over the bottom, generously. (You want a 1/2 inch or so of mix per layer, maybe a little more if its soupy.) Dump a can of pineapple in it. More dry mix, then some pats of butter. Sprinkle with sugar and a little cinnamon. Then dump a can of cherry pie filling on that, then more dry mix, then more sugar/cinnamon/butter.

I like to add an egg or two and a little milk, 'bout a 1/2 cup, beat up well, over the top. Makes it come out nice.

You can put this in the oven at the same time as the cassarole. 350F until bubbly and lightly browned on top. You should be able to press on it a little without your finger going through real easy. If you put a knife in it, the fruit should stick, but not the cakey part. 'Bout an hour.

Fix a salad, and you're set!
