Thanks to the OP for starting this thread, there are lots of ideas for good food here. Most of my five senses are in decline, but not taste!

I'm going to make a seven-layer salad (from the original Three Rivers Cookbook) but would like to substitute something for the layer of peas. It's lettuce, spinach, bacon, peas, red onion, mayo, Swiss cheese. Any suggestions?

Baked salmon with coarse black pepper and salt, on lemon slices, steamed broccoli and brown rice. Simple and fast, rice is made in rice cooker - total preparation time is less than 5 minutes. Cooking time; salmon and broccoli 12 minutes at the same time. Brown rice takes 2 hours at gaba setting (reason for slow cooking is to preserve the taste and rice cooker holds it warm all, day so you can start the rice at breakfast) and I order only the best tasting Nishiki rice from Amazon as you don’t have to add any condiments, gravy, or anything to this rice.

Oh, and the wine is Rutherford Sauvignon Blanc 2017 (Napa). Both the rice and the wine are from California.

I like grape jelly instead of peanut butter. But ruffles is a must and I always put the chips on the sandwich! Yum!

We eat out a few times a week but this week we made (he’s a great sous chef) a Cobb Salad, two varieties of chicken wings; one was teriyaki and the other was a ginger/orange/garlic glaze and a shrimp pizza c zucchini, roasted garlic, greens and cheeses. Planning on baked chicken thighs accompanied by corn on the cob and sauteed brussel sprouts for tonight. Happy Friday everyone!

I thin sliced one large chicken breast, dipped in egg wash and then breadcrumbs. Sauté the breasts in olive oil. Put a bit of shredded mozzarella on the bottom (so the chicken won't stick to dish) of a glass baking dish. Lay the lightly cooked chicken on top, pour the sauce all over. Top with more mozzarella and some grated parmesan. Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes till lightly browned and bubbly. These huge breasts make four servings senior sized.

I'm definitely more of a "baker" than I am a "cook" but I do a few entrees pretty well.

You should try grape jelly on a McDonalds sausage McMuffin (I think they sell for about $7.50 each these days)

Health benifits of hot peppers.

“Fiery peppers pack major health perks. In terms of vitamin C, they beat oranges 3 to 1. They're also stuffed with vitamins A, B, and E. Some studies suggest capsaicin acts as an antioxidant to protect your cells and helps tamp down inflammation.”

I can’t take too much hot spice does it still work if you drown it with yogurt?

Tomorrow is Taco Tuesday. I can hardly wait!

Growing up in New Mexico I ate some form of chile dish every day. Beef and chicken enchiladas, tamales, carne adovada, burritos, tacos, pozole, menudo, huevos rancheros and chiles rellenos so around here I find most of the food very bland. Maybe my tastebuds are burned out but that is the way it is. Red or green? Hot Thai food is great but not the same.
