Coming from the guy who would happily eat boxed mac & cheese, frozen pizza, chicken nuggets, tator tots, corn dogs, or Lean Pockets every day. :roll:
sorry for not having accurate measurements. no time to measure, ever!
combine in a bowl:
grill or smoke corn on the cob - cut the kernels off the cob and let cool
diced tomato
diced shallot
diced avocado
diced jalapeno
cilantro
in another bowl combine:
olive oil
lime juice
lime zest
honey
salt
pepper
toss mixture with dressing. let it sit in the fridge a bit so the flavors can come together. makes a great side dish.

I love tator tots!
brian eats like a 12 yr old. :lol: sev, i think you left chuckles off that list.
they do rock. let them cook a wee bit longer so they get nice and crispy.
napolean, give me some of your tots!
I like to put em under the broiler for a bit to really crispen them up. Just did that tonight as a matter of fact.

Sounds good to me.
I also highly recommend Crispy Crowns, they're like a flatter version of tator tots and have a higher crisp to tender ratio.

Chuckles are for special occasions only.
Our 3 year old has a better developed palate than Brian does. :lol:

Hit Burger King... I believe their "hash browns" are really Crispy Crowns under alias.

Alright, I'll share a recipe since I derailed pretty badly with this thread.
But I don't really cook a whole lot and I deal with basically three kids to please taste-wise, so we're not gourmet around here. This recipe came from allrecipes.com and is a hit with my family. I've made it a couple of times and it's not bad.
Baked Ziti
INGREDIENTS
* 1 pound dry ziti pasta
* 1 onion, chopped
* 1 pound lean ground beef or bulk sausage
* 2 (26 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce
* 6 ounces provolone cheese, sliced
* 1 1/2 cups sour cream
* 6 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
* 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
DIRECTIONS
1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add ziti pasta, and cook until al dente, about 8 minutes; drain.
2. In a large skillet, brown onion and ground beef over medium heat. Add spaghetti sauce, and simmer 15 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer as follows: 1/2 of the ziti, Provolone cheese, sour cream, 1/2 sauce mixture, remaining ziti, mozzarella cheese and remaining sauce mixture. Top with grated Parmesan cheese.
4. Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cheeses are melted.
Note: I usually mix in the sour cream with the ziti and sauce, put 1/2 of that in the bottom of the baking dish, cover with slices of Provolone and 1/2 the mozzarella, then the other half of the ziti, then top with 1/2 the mozzarella and the Parmesan cheese. And I almost always use MORE cheese than is called for.

Has anyone actually made any of the recipes posted? I am going to make Greg's opening chile (with yak burger if I can get to the Farmers' Market on Saturday) over the weekend.
I've made this (tator tots):
But that's about the extent of my cooking.
Let us know how it turns out, I was wondering if Greg knew what he was talking about...

I'll go with 1 of my favorite dessert recipes. It's basically the tollhouse cookie recipe that I've tweaked a bit over the years to make one tasty chocolate/peanut butter chip pan cookie.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
In a seperate bowl, combine:
2 1/4 cup white flour
1 regular sized package of instant vanilla pudding mix
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Sift the ingrediants together and set aside
In a mixing bowl, combine
1 cup softend butter or butter flavored Crisco Baking sticks
3/4 cup splenda white baking mix sugar
3/4 cup splenda brown baking mix sugar
(Note "regular" white and brown sugar can be used to for extra calories )
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
Begin mixing, adding in 2 eggs as the ingredients are combined.
After the butter/sugar/vanilla/egg mixture has been thoroughly combined, begin adding in the flour mixture in 3 increments.
After the ingredients have been throughly mixed, add in 1 12oz. package of Nestle's chocolate/peanut butter chips (perfectly fine to use any flavored chip you want) and if desired 1/2 cup chopped walnuts. Mix and then spread the batter into a pre greased 9" x 13" cake pan.
Bake for 18 to 21 minutes until golden brown.
Enjoy!
If I really have a chocolate craving, I've been known to frost the entire pan cookie with chocolate frosting But often I find that a good old scoop of vanilla and some chocolate sauce are the perfect compliment!

Hey, I tried to keep it "lower cal" by using Splenda instead of Sugar!
Bottomline though, the more sugar I can get people to regularly consume, the more likely I am to be busy at work!
