Bob makes an excellent mayo, and once made a fat-free faux mayo (I think he used celery root on that one). But, in the Mayo vs. Miracle Whip debate, I prefer mayo. MW is icky-sweet. He likes MW well enough, but funny, I haven't seen any purchased since he married me. ;-) So, all this talk of BLTs and it has me changing my mind (again) on what to have for dinner. I have some lovely whole chicken breasts marinating in a light soy/ginger/garlic/wine/EVOO mixture and I need to get that on the grill fairly soon. With fresh grilled corn on the cob! I just can't shake how good a BLT with avocado sounds, with a little soup on the side. I've got everything here for that. And it's certainly easier to prepare. Decisions, decisions. --Lin |

Not that it is a bad thing, it's just something *I* don't like. I'm pretty happy to try anything if placed in front of me :-) But the BLT can be tasty in many guises, but generally, it does not include other than thick peasant bread, tomato, lettuce, *mayo*, and possibly a thin slice of onion which dchanges the name to BLO. But so can many foods. Bob |

I realized that I had only one smallish sungold tomato and several large grape tomatoes, so I chopped them up, added just a bit of chopped onion, chopped up a half of an avocado and added a splash of white balsamic vinegar. I used it as a topping when I built the sandwiches as I normally would. I served them open-faced and it was a very nice presentation. I was at Trader Joe's a couple of days ago and bought more of their cartoned soups and stocks. Hidden at the bottom of the shelf was a soup I'd never seen before -- A "Latin Style Black Bean Soup" with garlic, chipotle, and sea salt. It's vegan and gluten free. The soup on it's own is smooth and dee-lish, but more importantly it makes a great jump-off point for something else, which is of course, what I did. I added a can of reduced sodium black beans, fresh corn kernels from two ears, and jalapeno powder to give it a bit more spice. It was a great way of getting a DELICIOUS high-fiber low fat soup. I have a little left over and I think I'll add a small can of chopped tomatoes to it. The box is deep purple and the soup is black bean black -- and it was on the BOTTOM shelf under the vegetable stock. Very hard to notice. I'm going back for more of this, because as we all know, their products vary and once it's gone it may never come back. [BTW: Went looking for the hazelnut meal there as suggested and that particular TJs does not carry it, but I did get almond meal]. Chicken on the grill for sure tomorrow. --Lin |

I was salivating, and keeping off the household cats, while trying t type. But you are right Bob. a BLOT is more in keeping with what I usually make. But I at least actually use mayo unlike some of the folks here. Anyone that makes a BLT (or an variation of it) without mayo, deserves some level of scorn!!! Bob |

Might be about time to make a pot of black soybeans, but with the current drought and 100+ degree temps, the weather is just not right for soups yet! I've even been letting all 3 dogs live indoors for the afternoons. I'm not leaving my poor pups outside in those temps! It's not stopping me from grilling tho'. Ferocious stole a chicken leg off the mini-grill the other day. I took it away from him and tossed it as I don't want him eating a leg bone... -- Peace!

We used to be able to get all the different Hellmans flavours, but most of the local supermarkets have dropped it off their shelves. The do, however, carry S&W,which I prefer. The SO *loves* the Hellmans Lime Mayo. |

All those things can be added _after_ the base mayonnaise is done. Portion it off, make garlic mayo, make curry mayo, etc. That way you have several dips instead of only one.

Nope. Just make sure that all ingredients have the same temperature. I've been making mayonnaise for over 30 years and never had a failure. If someone needs a work-out, prepare mayo with a whisk ;-) Cheers, Michael Kuettner |

But in my case, if I'm making mayo, it is usually intended for one purpose, so I don't think ahead about multi-flavor portions. Bob |

The gal who facilitated the rescue of our RayAnn feeds her dogs a raw meat and veggie diet. RayAnn got a chicken back after being released from "the big house." We are grilling tonight as well, marinated chicken and roasted corn on the cob. I've got some leftover boiled red potatoes and a few eggs that are hardboiled so I might make a small batch of tater salad. --Lin |

For various medical reasons I eat a low to no fat diet. When I started it many years ago, a lot of things like no-fat milk tasted pretty awful but I quickly got used to them and I actually dislike regular milk now. I use no-fat mayonnaise quite successfully to make things like tartar sauce, Russian dressing and tuna salad but I never really liked mayonnaise as a sandwich spread. Combinations of no-fat mayo, yoghurt and sour cream can be used to make fish sauces and no-fat yoghurt makes a pretty good Indian Raita. -- James Silverton Potomac, Maryland Email, with obvious alterations: not.jim.silverton.at.verizon.not |
