I do remember our Conor served proudly & valiantly in that unit Bigs & thank you for the reminder.
That unit is expeted home soon & someone I love is with them so I have been following them closely.
The Marines there have made amazing progress in the region haven’t they!
Whenever I make chicken or a meat dish I use the leftover fat/bones to make stock.
For chicken stock:
Chicken fat/bones, bay leaves, thyme, sage, salt, pepper, parsley, celery salt, onions, garlic, celery, carrots and enough water to fill your stock pot.
Simmer for a couple of hours on low and then cool. Drain into containers and freeze. I freeze them into 2 cup containers and then use them for soups and gravies.
I love using 1-2 frozen containers for minestrone or zucchini soups especially.
For beef stock:
Beef bones/fat, parsley, garlic, onions, carrots, celery and water.
Sometimes I have the stock with a little pastina and parmesan cheese. Yummy comfort food and the kids love it.
Be back shortly...I am on my way home.
Cabbage Rolls Tips:
Wash cabbage heads, pat dry then wrap well in plastic and place in freezer a couple days before you plan on making stuffed cabbage rolls. Thaw the cabbage heads in the fridge one full day before preparation. When the cabbage is thawed the next day, you’ll find the cabbage leaves will come off the head easily and roll nicely. Another method you could try: Microwave cleaned cabbage head on low heat setting for 10 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, peel leaves off. If you find the cabbage leaves aren’t as supple once you’re down a few layers, reheat for a few more minutes as needed.
Ripen Peaches:
Fill a box with peaches and cover them with newspaper to speed up the ripening process. To store in the freezer, slice the washed peaches into chunks, sprinkle on some lemon juice and pack them in freezer bags. A pound of peaches equals 4 cups sliced peaches (approximately).

It's a fun site!
Enjoy!
I do, too!
Leftover au jus from a beef pot roast makes a WONFERFUL French Onion Soup!
And you know why... because food gets nuked from the inside out in a microwave.
Starting with the bones puts it over the top
Sure does!
YOM!!
Yeah, it aint the same as a skillet
Oh good Connor...the more exposure the better.
3/5 is making history today as it did at Belleau Wood
Indeed it is.
