Four Foods on Friday
January 25th, 2008So, this is my first week participating in Four Foods on Friday. I have to give a quick shout out to Skeet’s Stuff for putting me on to this meme. It looks like fun! Here we go.
#1. Bacon. Chewy, crispy or burnt?
For me I like bacon crispy or burnt. The crispier the better. I like it to shatter when I bite into it. I haven’t had bacon in so long though. I was getting turkey bacon for a while, but mostly lately I’ve just been chopping up lunch meat into the breakfast concoctions that I make, or having cereal or toast.
#2. Mayonnaise or miracle whip?
Personally I prefer Miracle Whip, but hubbie hates it so I’ve switched to getting mayonnaise in the house. I don’t mind mayo, but I prefer the tangy zip.
#3. What green vegetable is used in Italian Wedding soup?
I have no clue. I would google it, but Skeet’s answers came into my feed reader and she says “Endive” so I will second it ’cause I have never had or made that soup.
#4. Share a recipe that you use Italian sausage in
Hrm. Well, the only times I use Italian sausage are when I make calzone or when I mash it up and put it in the breakfast concoction. Otherwise I generally just used mince turkey.
Calzone:
Pre-made pizza dough from the grocery store.
Italian sausage.
Sliced ham.
Ricotta cheese.
Provolone.
Egg. Flour (small portion, or water if you don’t want to waste an egg).
Roll out the pizza dough into a circular shape. Spread the ricotta over half of it. Put chopped ham, mashed sausage and provolone cheese in side. Fold up. Seal with a little bit of egg and flour.
Bake at 350 for about a half an hour to forty-five minutes until golden brown.

Thanks. I still need to go through and read everyone else’s answers and comment; but I know what you mean about short answers. I like to give a bit of depth, after all it’s a blog entry, and it’s sharing something about myself. I tend to view things like this as short answer/essay questions. It harkens me back to school where the teachers would always be “give reasoning/explain”.

Thanks for joining us!
I myself agree with Corrin, I prefer the longer answers because I learn more.
Calzone. Hungry.

Your Calzone recipe sounds delicious! I’m glad you’ve joined in so you can share recipes with us.

I made myself hungry about it too I wound up having to make one over the weekend. It was good too.

I don’t know if I’ll be able to this week. I’ve never made stew, but I’ll do my best. It’s interesting reading other people’s foods too.
