Lemon Chicken Piccata... maybe with some 'Singapore Style Noodles'
(which I need to use up). Would noodles suit this instead of rice?
I'm a little unsure whether the noodles would go that well with
capers. Opinions appreciated.

Stop being a pussy like notbob. Piccata should be served with
noodles, not rice. If you mean rice vermicelli, then those will work
but it should be wheat-based vermicelli for a dish like that.

Capers and rice don't compute, Will Robinson.

Why not? The rice salad I made had capers in it.

I always serve chicken piccata with rice.

Anyway, why shouldn't capers and rice compute? Rice is so exceedingly
bland that I can't imagine anything not going with it. Of course,
Jeßus might be thinking of something fancier than my usual rice,
salt, and a little butter.

Works well. Noodles preferred for that dish in some areas but rice is
very common as well. Singapore noodles are rice based generally, just
shaped by processing to seem like may be wheat based. I'd use up the
singapore noodles (a type of vermachelli)

Capers and rice in the right dish work just fine. Expand your limited
culinary experience to find out.

A rice pilaf, is another example.

Just rice with some butter and salt would do IMO. The noodles were
great, BTW.

People here seem to think their way is the only way. I am having my
breakfast now. Yes, it is late. Rye bread toasted and made into a sandwich
with Daiya cheddar cheese, thick slices of tomato and a little margarine.
Nuked till cheese sort of melts. Of course this would be way better if done
in the oven or in a pan and with real cheese, but... This works for me.

I somehow kept buying large slicing tomatoes thinking we had none and now we
have many! Husband is going to get one of these for dinner with real cheese
and if I have time, done the right way. Or failing that, a stuffed tomato!

Pfft. It was just His Pudginess posting under another nym looking for
an opportunity to try to get my attention. I'm sure he's well aware
capers and rice can go together.

>I am having my

I'll say. It's breakfast time here right now

I'm skipping breakfast this morning to go into town to do grocery
shopping... three double cafe lattes keep me going though.

In these situations I usually plan to eat whilst in town but more
often than not come home hungry because nothing really appealed to me
<shrug>. I'm a fussy eater in the sense that I only like real
ingredients and not fast food... so that makes it difficult for me.

I'm sure there would be many recipes out there to make use of those
tomatoes.
