I made some "bread pudding" in the microwave last week, and it was absolutely delicious. It was also stupid simple.

I used a medium can of crushed pineapple, and a larger can of plums (make sure any seeds/pits are removed if applicable). Also added a cup of sugar, and liberally applied cinnamon from a shaker. Your recipe may vary.

Any fruit should work and (believe it or not), can size doesn't matter.

I opened the cans of fruit in a casserole dish, and microwaved them until hot. I then added crumbled saltine crackers until they were slightly "soupy" and heated them again.

They were still soupy, so I added a stack of crumbled Ritz crackers (to achieve desired consistency) and heated them a bit longer.

Ya'll won't belive how delicious this was (reminded me of Mom's bread pudding when I was a kid). We ate the whole thing in several servings, and called it a meal.

I can't stand bread pudding. I mean, ick. I've tried it a few times, but the texture of soggy mushy bread just makes me want to vomit. I don't understand why, but it's just... ugh.

Where do you get the garlic wine vinegar? Never even heard of it. I'll give this a go, it sounds good.

My local grocery usually has it. Be it Crest or Wal Mart.

Huh. Soggy and mushy doesn't describe any bread pudding I've ever had. It's pretty firm when done right.

I guess biscuits and gravy must really freak ya out...

Okay, this was a real treat: The wife and I did this last night and it was very cool. "Unique" is a good way to describe it. Living Kitchen Farm Table Dinner, in Depew, OK. Here's the deal, these two ladies run this place called Living Kitchens Farm and Dairy; they have chickens, a big vegetable plot, greenhouses, milk goats, and the like. They are kinda like living the simple life and so on. The one lady was a chef in Seattle who decided she wanted to get closer to nature and all that jazz, so she moved to Oklahoma, bought this big old farm near Depew, and settled down growing stuff, mostly selling her produce and goat cheese at local Farmer's markets. She mentioned one in the Tulsa area called Cherry Street Market or something like that. Some of you guys up around there probably heard of it, and go there to buy your essential oils, candles, foaming bath soaps, organic peanut oil and stuff, I betcha. Anyway, she met this other somewhat mature hippie chick gal and they were making candles or goat soap or something, and they started doing these "Farm Table Dinners" out on the screened in back porch of this big old log cabin farm house place out there, and it has been going on now for some 14 years. The place seats 35 people, all at one great big long table. They do the dinners on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights, from early April to just before Christmas. You have to go to their website and make your reservations well in advance to get a seat. Cost is $95 per person, and they do these extravagant, multi-course dinners, all around some kind of seasonal, or other type of theme. Dinner last night was called "Humble Pie", and it was a planned 9-course meal, with an additional 2 courses served as test courses, which they asked us to evaluate for possible inclusion in future menu's. I have provided a pic of the menu from the dinner below. So; if you need something really cool and different, go ye to the website in the link below and sign thyself and thine up. Is a great thing for a birthday, wedding anniversary, or even if you're just in the dog house and need to do something special to get out of it....
Here's the link to their website and then a pic of the menu. Also, a few pics of the place, and a few of the food items. Enjoy!

$95 for someone to blow snot in a bunch of bowls? no thanks! microdill

It is, admittedly, for those with a more refined palate, definitely not for the drive-through crowd that eats dinner from a paper bag between traffic lights on the way home.

I'll pass. I couldn't ever get into paying through the nose for itty-bitty portions that were "dressed up."

I ate breakfast in a little place in Pahrump, NV this morning called, "Mom's Diner." Two huge pancakes, two eggs, and two slices of bacon for about $7.00. I couldn't finish the two huge pancakes, but I sure tried. However, I knew I would be driving back to Kanab today and didn't want to get sleepy.
