We always have turkey pot pie after the holiday with the leftovers.. That's deffinatly a real comfort food!
The jalapeno popper casserole is right up Ryders ally... If your wife doesnt mind could you share the recipe?

Oh man, I couldn’t agree more in trying that casserole! We love poppers and a casserole recipe would be awesome!

So, I can kinda envision Ryders next thread Sowsage Sowsage ! Just sayin! 😉

I tried typing this up from a recipe card of my wife’s. Took me awhile. Her disclaimer is that much like me she tweaks as she goes. This as is should be very good. It’s one of my favs. Dice and brown 24 oz bacon. Drain and set aside. Sauté 2 cups of diced onions and peppers ( can use bell but I like using poblano)Set aside. 3 lbs of shredded chicken breast. We usually do this in the instant pot with a little broth snd taco seasoning. Cool down to mostly dry and mix in the peppers and onion. Set aside. Mix 16 oz drained picked jalapeño slices and half of the bacon with 20 oz softened cream cheese. Layer the chicken mix in the bottom of a greased 9 x 13 pan. Next layer the cream cheese mixture on. Top with 12 oz shredded cheddar along with the the rest of the bacon and 12 oz. drained pickled jalapeños. Bake at 375F for 20 minutes.

If you haven't done zuppa toscana yet @Steve H has a good recipe. Make it several times a winter. Also any kind of breakfast casserole is a winner around here
I second that. steveh steveh also turned me on to that and it has become my favorite soup......be sure to get a loaf of crusty bread!

Anyone mention buffalo chicken casserole yet? Love that this time of year. Tator tot casserole is good too.
That sounds good.. Ive done buffalo chicken dip but not a casserole!
 
TNJAKE TNJAKE .... I was thinking.. When you pull that skin off the thighs for your Tuscan chicken... Don't toss it!

Nope didn't work for me. Maybe my oven temp is off but mighty greasy
Not a bad taste...kinda fishy?

Maybe someone will let me know where I went wrong. Used a sprinkling of sea salt.

I think she left out an important step in that video. The disco disco technique.
What is that?
Scrape the excess (not all) fat from the skins before cooking.
I haven't tried it baked, but they get really crispy on the grill.

Well it's fixed now professor 🤣
I'll eat anything....once lol.
So I'll definitely try your slump!

I had no clue the salt on commercial bacon was that high. Wow. I’ve not had commercial bacon in a long time since I’ve started making my own. Homemade is so much better, it’s like a completely different meat. In fact, I watch some of these professionals on YouTube make dishes and they use store bought bacon and I just think, “Why are you doing that when you’re perfectly capable of making your own?” I hope that doesn’t make me a snob but if you’re making a nice dish, go the extra step.
I don't know why you were objecting the the combination, Sounds like seafood stew to me!
 
Ok is't a local thing here,
Italian Beef Vegetable.

It uses a local favorite sweet Italian sausage
Graziano's

One box Swanson's beef stock, bring to simmer
One pound of the above mentioned sausage and pick it off in small pieces dropping it into the simmering pot,
One 16 ounce of frozen Italian vegetables after the sausage has simmered 5 to 10 minutes
Cook according to the veggies are "al dente"
 
If you are down for a little Tex Mex, it is hard to beat Caldo De Res. This is made from beef oxtail that I but at Sams. I don't have a specific recipe but here is the way I do it.

I cook the ox tails in a pot of water low and slow. Take the foam and fat off the top after they are cooked.
ADD
Knorr brand Caldo de res seasoning. There is a guide on the bottle.
big slices of yellow onion
black pepper
minced garlic
tomato sauce
Carrots
Potatoes
halved corn on the cobs
COOK until the veggies and potatoes are all just about done then add cabbage and cook until finished.

Sorry I don't have exact amounts I just do it from experience. This is wonderful cold weather soup.

TThis sounds really good
