Cooking Experiment : Food that makes you go wtf

[tuftears]

No pictures this go round, just text!

Saturday: a crockpot chili...  With chicken thighs, carrots, onion, red bell pepper, kidney beans, chili powder, cumin seed... and cinnamon and honey!  It is sweet and spicy.

Guildies were horrified.   "Omg chicken?!   Wtf honey!?"  And one guild mate commented of my description 'an abomination before the eyes of the chili gods', "Hey, that'd be a great band name."

Sunday: breaded salmon burgers!  I have been craving chicken fried steak.  I figured the texture would be close enough ...  but there's no such thing as a healthy gravy so I used Panda Express orange sauce and served with brown rice and mixed veggies.  Not a CFS substitute but tasty enough.

That actually sounds wonderful! I love sweet and spicy, so I'd adore this!

If something seems missing or the quantity seems off, or you'd do things differently, you should go with your own guess! I'm going off of slightly fuzzy memory and anyway I'm a dabbler at cooking. };)

"Dabbler at Cooking" says he.

I think you're quite a bit better at it than that.

Flatterer. ^_^

I try a little of everything, then I have to repeat the dishes, then I have to perfect them. Mostly, I find, what people need are ideas, and reviews of things other people have tried.
