Most of what I cook there is no recipe for. There may have been once, but I don't like to cook with too much written down, and have adapted and adjusted things over time.
We are thinking of having a cook off at the fire house, simply because there are a few of us who want to challenge each other in a competition. It might even be Iron Chef style, with a secret ingredient.

Every firehouse should have a classically trained chef. There was a video news shot a few weeks ago. OMG did it look good.

Here is a chili recipe I got from Weight Watchers. (Gotta give credit where it's due!) It tastes great hard to believe it's good for you!
1 lb lean ground beef
2 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
2 T. Chili powder
1 t. ground cumin
1 28 oz crushed tomatoes
1 can 15 oz kidney beans (rinsed and drained)
1 sweet onion chopped
1/4 cup diced chiles
2 T. tomato paste
Brown ground beef with garlic. Drain fat. Add chili and cumin. Mix all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cook on high 4-5 hours.
Sometimes I mix it up by substituting turkey sausage instead of ground beef.

Most of mine are pretty heavy on calories. Anyone have any? Even salad ideas would rock, because quite frankly, I'm not that experienced in that area, so I need all the help I can get!

You have to remember you are in the middle of a heavily wooded area and when you find them you loose track of everything else, that dreaded tunnel vision, I got this once and after picking a nice mess looked up and realized I had no clue of where I came from, I wouldn’t call it scary but was a little discerning. Took me about half an hour to find a landmark I recognized, wouldn’t have taken that long but I found another nice mess....:)

- Trim off the nasties, cut in bite size pieces and soak in saltwater for about 12hrs or so, protein is good for you but I don’t like to eat bugs. Remove and let dry on a paper towel, dip in egg/milk mixture, dip in crackers crumb, fry in butter till golden brown. You can also dip in batter but who wants to cover the taste. Another recipe I did last year never had done this always though it was a waste of good shrooms is to make mushroom soup it was absolutely the best ever. Just heard today there are selling for $35 a pound.
