Comment on Breakfast Idea: Breakfast Burrito

Frugal Living — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 07:39:45 GMT

This is almost identical to how I make my breakfast Burritos. They are yummy!

The only things I do different is no butter, I add red capsicums and make my own bread but it does not add too much to the time as I keep the dough in the fridge and just pull a bit off, roll it out and it pan fries in a less than two minutes.

Yes, with the How to Make Your Own: Lemon/Lime Soda recipe, I recommend sugar to taste . . .

Yum! I guess this work well with most fruit... May need a little extra sugar if using lemon though.

Thanks for the quick tip.

Last year, I had Bell Peppers in my garden-- not as lucky this year. However, you can find them on sale sometimes . . .

Can't say much more than just YUM!!! I love peppers but they can be a little pricey at times.

Thanks,

Comment on Dinner Idea: Date Night Delight-- Shrimp and Steak

Yes, simple is always best . . .

The baked potatoes can be done on the grill from the get go-- about 40 minutes (Sweet potatoes in 30 minutes). If they are really big-- we cheat and my wife will microwave (don't forget to puncture them with a fork or they will explode) them for about 4-5 minutes on high before wrapping them in foil and throwing them on the coals.

Love the new site! Although I'm not a daddy, I'm always looking for quick/easy/frugal meals (the simplest tend to be the best, in my opinion).

I like the idea about doing baked potatos on the coals...never tried that before. How long do you cook them like that? Also, do you prep them in any way?

Comment on Quick Tip: Cooking With Alcohol

Absolutely! In the unlikely event there might be some of that red or white stuff left over from cooking, you don't want to leave yourself something that isn't fit to drink.

I remember what someone said years ago about a cheap whiskey that he tasted at a party. He drew away from the glass with a disapproving look on his face and remarked that the whiskey wasn't fit to drink but might be suitable in an emergency for pouring over a wound as a type of antiseptic.

Convert that to a Thousand Island by upping the mayo quantity and tossing a spoonful or so of pickle relish...
