Jonesing for tomatoes!
I don't often have food cravings but I just had a severe one. For a fresh
tomato which I did not have. I also didn't want to open a can of tomatoes because my dinner of small red beans and a small green salad with olives and onions will be enough food for me. So I thought of the little cans of tomato sauce I bought at Winco for 19 cents. Popped one open, put it in a bowl, warmed it in the microwave and topped it with black pepper and oregano. Ate three bites and... Ahhhhh. That seemed to be enough for me. I feel fine now. I suspect I am low on magnesium again. The last time I craved tomatoes like this, that's what the problem was. Must make a note to buy fresh tomatoes next time I go to the store. I didn't do a full grocery shop this week and only bought a few things at Target and Costco. |

Interesting. I have to supplement, or I get cramps and eye ticks. And, I eat a lot of tomatoes. Hmmm. An excuse to eat more tomatoes. Thank you! My local community farm is closed for the winter. Won't open till March 1st. I am going through tomato withdrawal. The store bought, picked green, tomatoes I have been forced to eat for the past couple of months are just horrible. If you have one of these farms near by. You must stop in. At mine, you have to pick them yourself ($2.99/lb), which I find a blast. When I enter the tomato green house, I get tipsy on all the free oxygen and have to restrain myself from yelling: I WANT THEM ALL! Ripe organic tomatoes off all different varieties. It will blow your mind! You will hate ever having to eat a store bought tomato again. -T |

Used to be farm country but not so much for vegetables given our short growing season. |

I put home made tomato sauces over the top of meats and vegetables or at
breakfast over fried eggs. If I use a meat sauce (like last night I had chili con carne) I just have it over vegetables or on it's own with salad. "Todd" wrote in message ...

No pasta allowed to pour it over? Poop! > > -T Yeah , and I'm addicted to fresh gazpacho, but the sad truth is that a pound of fresh tomatoes is about 2/3 of an oz. of sugar. You can make pasta a little more palatable with whole wheat pasta. I also like tomato sauce over zucchini, stuffed or other wise. I'm open to other suggestions. I have discovered that green tomatoes, that unfulfilled promise of what could have been, that haunts gardeners in the fall, can replace tomatillos in making salsa verde for enchiladas. Enchiladas Verdes Ingredients Recipe makes 4 servings Change Servings € 2 bone-in chicken breast halves € 2 cups chicken broth € 1/4 white onion € 1 clove garlic € 2 teaspoons salt € 1 pound fresh tomatillos, husks removed (or green tomatoes) € 5 serrano peppers (to taste: I use 2 or 3 + an anaheim for flavor) [my wife is sensitive to heat, I like jalapenos, our daughter eats raw habaneros] € 1/4 white onion € 1 clove garlic € 1 pinch salt € 12 corn tortillas € 1/4 cup vegetable oil € 1 cup crumbled queso fresco (I use grated monterey Jack) € 1/2 white onion, chopped € 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped Directions 1. In a saucepan, combine chicken breast with chicken broth, one quarter onion, a clove of garlic, and 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil, and then boil for 20 minutes. Reserve broth, set chicken aside to cool, and discard onion and garlic. When cool enough to handle, shred chicken with your hands. 2. Place tomatillos and serrano chiles in a pot with water, enough to cover them. Bring to boil, and continue boiling until tomatillos turn a different shade of green (from bright green to a dull, army green [about 6-7 min.]). Strain tomatillos and chiles, and place in a blender with another quarter piece of onion, 1 clove garlic, and a pinch of salt. Pour in reserved chicken broth, so that liquid just covers the veggies in the blender by about an inch. Blend all ingredients until they are completely pureed. Pour salsa in a medium saucepan, and bring to a low boil. 3. Pour oil in a frying pan, and allow to get very hot. Slightly fry tortillas one by one in hot oil, setting each on a paper towel afterwards to soak some of the oil. Finally, dip slightly fried tortillas in low-boiling green salsa, until tortillas become soft again. Place on plates, 3 per person. 4. Fill or top tortillas with shredded chicken, then extra green sauce. Top with crumbled cheese, chopped onion, and chopped cilantro. I suggest an over-priced microbrewery beer an an accompaniment. Refried beans, and rice are also good with this meal, if you can deal with them. Mmmmm, muy bueno. -- Welcome to the New America. <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hA736oK9FPg> or E Pluribus Unum Next time vote Green Party |

That's a tad unreasonable. You couldn't even eat a meal of eggs and veggies if that's all you can eat. Perhaps you need to be on a diabetes med or insulin. |
