Following the wild success of my newly found garlic-peeling technique
(see separate thread), I decided to adapt it to peeling hard-boiled eggs. I took half a dozen (very fresh, supposedly hard-to-peel!) eggs, hard- boiled them and let them cool. I took two large stainless steel bowls, put the eggs in, clamped the bowls together with my hands, and shook them violently for about 30 seconds. Lo and behold, the shells were clean off! All I had to do was pick out the shell-less eggs. All four million bits of them. :-) :-) -- Silvar Beitel |

I made a batch of Manwich the other night. I'll eat it all but I won't ever make it again. G. |

I bought the original Manwich this time. I've had the Bold in the past but didn't remember if I liked it so much or not. I only make this about once a year. Not remembering, I went with the original as that's what got them going in the first place. Like you said, I learned long ago that one pound of ground beef isn't enough. I made this with 1.5 beast and I always cook it with lots of onions and worchestershire. Funny - even with this last batch. I didn't like it much first made and hot but I loved the leftovers...just some cold on fresh white bread. Not bad at all. (It's thicker when cold) Grocery store this morning and they had Manwich on sale for $1. So I took your advice and bought a can of that. I'll add some green pepper next time too. I also suspect they could use a little heat but maybe the Bold provides that. (?) I'm also wondering if maybe some thick-sliced white mushrooms might be good. G. |

A dollop of two of Manwich Sloppy Joe leftovers (nuked warm first)
along with a slice of American or Cheddar cheese (sliced jalapenos optional) make a nice filling for an omelette. One item I've bought which makes a great filling for an omelette is those foil packets of Old El Paso seasoned meat and veggies and beans and rice that you can nuke up and pour on a tortilla. Maybe half of one of those packets with some shredded cheddar or jack and a dollop of sour cream and salsa on top is delicious. |

No. It's ground beef mixed with a sweet tomato sauce. |

But it was not the violent shake and break method that made me laugh, it was the caveman inventiveness factor of putting two bowls together rim to rim, so that not only is rigorous shaking involved, but also the task of keeping the bowls perfectly together to keep debris from shaking out. Sounds like a good workout for the shoulders. TJ |
