Melt In Your Mouth Chicken
Hey! I sent you this recipe a few months ago! Read ya mail!!!
Not for nuttin, next time skip all that seasoning stuff and sprinkle dried oregano on top. Faster and IMO will taste better.

Excellent mayo-based Caesar dressing. For quite a while I've been trying to replicate Bravo! Caesar dressing. This is exceptionally close.
I did replace half the mayo with EV olive oil.

Corned beef and cabbage. Why wait for St Patrick’s Day?
Never made it before, but we will have leftovers so I bought supplies for Reuben sandwiches.

Looks delicious, Mik! That's one of the few things I learned how to cook. You might try putting it under the broiler for a few minutes at the end. But either way is just as good.
Mistakes I've made: not cooking (simmering) long enough, was too salty to eat, chucked it. Cooked it approximately an hour longer than indicated, result was the spices were diluted, ended up too bland.
I sure miss being able to eat corned beef. The salt content is too high, damn. -

Corned beef is good with fried eggs for breakfast, too.

The trick to low salt is to start with salt-free ingredients, and only season at table. The amount of salt you use on cooked food is miniscule.
I know it is said that using salt while you are cooking makes everything taste better, but I have not found that to be the case. I never salt pasta water or anything like that.

Made a great recipe tonight.

Dieticians have gotten angry with me because of my techniques for reducing salt. Strong Cheeses are a great way to build flavor without a lot of salt. You have to eat things that taste good or you won’t stick with it. Salads with fruit, blue cheese and nuts are great. Grilled stuff that is only seasoned at table will keep your sodium way down.
-
@Mik The problem is some ingredients are loaded with sodium - cheese for example. Even low sodium soy sauces and chicken bullion is loaded with it.

Amatriciana tonight. Yum. One of my favorite pasta sauces.
