Welcome to the midwest lol.

Homesick Texan's Hatch chile and squash casserole with roasted chicken and taters

Gorgeous! I want a crusty slice with butter. Ok, so you seem to have gotten more acquainted with bread in the CSO ? You've had two successes in a row

I forgot to post a warning for you over on this thread

Drooling and extremely jealous.

@scubadoo97 I will be thinking of you. I am watching the weather channel non-stop. I really like how your governor is handling this. @rotuts Do not look at the following meal.....it will upset you greatly Venison stuffed bell peppers and porcupine balls done in the Instant Pot

Still trying to use up some venison burger before the season starts. I had both pots going last night. Stuffed bell peppers--burger, an egg, tomato sauce (I used the last of Vivian's cocktail tomatoes from Deep Run Roots),rice, onion, bell pepper, salt, pepper. Layered in some slices of sharp cheddar cheese. 15 mins. High pressure Natural release--cheese put on top after the NR and then I put the lid back on to melt it. Porcupine meatballs--basically the same recipe as above minus the cheese. Same cook time as above.

And, when you've made your way into a man's heart...but you've exhausted all of those recipes....here is Around the clock with...Menus Men Prefer Just think of him first, plan to please him, and you will be the apple of his eye. Guess what? MEN like meals with FLAVOR. Sorry ladies. No flavor for you. Make a perfect dinner.....we want our men soothed and refreshed. Look how happy he is! Ohhhh and ladies....let him have some fun rustling up his own grub *wink wink* ...even though you've already done all the work, he'll think he's a chef! All of this is sponsored by Bond...the bread men prefer! If you're married to a soulless woman who does not bake......

And yet more advertising types..... Reliable Recipes --no printing date. All about baking with Calumet Baking Powder. The dancing vegetables--dated 1924. Making salads using Wesson Oil Good Things to Eat--dated 1933. Baking with Arm & Hammer Baking Soda.

I realize this one isn't politically correct. But I can't part with Aunt Jemima Can't find a date as to when this was printed. This one I saved because who doesn't like recipes in the form of paper dolls???? No date on this one either.

Here's another advertisement type cookbook. Knox Gelatine. Lots of creations that jiggle And a special kid's section...because what kid doesn't crave spinach suspended in gelatine?

Many of the cookbooks are big advertisements. This one, for example, is all about "cooking without water"--which is a fancy way of saying they steam their stuff lol. Oh, and you have to buy all of your cooking vessels from Wear-Ever. They are the mark of a modern kitchen.

I saved a lot of old cookbooks from both of my great-grandmothers. Some of them I get quite a kick out of. I'll go through and take pictures of some of the more "interesting" ones "The Way to a Man's Heart"--distributed by The Gas Service Co. So, men, listen up. This book will make you fall in love with whomever cooks from it. Women, we must stay slim. Apparently, the men must not have to...... A taste of Scandinavia? If you don't bake your own bread, you have a dead soul. To impress, I am going to make a frankfurter crown.......

Nice!!!! Have you made this recipe before using the CSO?

Oh excellent!!!! I'm so glad. Heading over now.

Kay, I LOVE this. LOVE. That's exactly the type of place that I would look for when we used to get out and about. I can't wait to see the tamales. Girl, you should've stayed for a pie.

Just a reminder that the CSO does awesome at helping you peel your peppers. 500F on steam broil for about 15 mins flipping half way through. I'd say mine were done for about 18 mins or so. Peeled like a dream.

It could be that the heat settings on your CSO are slightly different than mine? Or maybe I've just gotten lucky so far on bread. I'd hate to have to haul all of my cast iron out and use my big oven.

Got my box of Hatch chiles yesterday so I made seafood enchiladas

I would have said that chicken was beef

Got my chiles a bit ago Guess what's for dinner?

Love love love all of the serving ware.

Those burgers look amazing. And wow on that presentation--is that a live tomato plant or did they cut a branch off?
