Oh well, to him they taste very off, and it's nice that you respect that. I've always hated feeling like I was "fooled" into eating something that I know I don't like.Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-36995980976104720252014-01-20T15:08:48.222-08:002014-01-20T15:08:48.222-08:00I wish my husband liked onions because that sounds...I wish my husband liked onions because that sounds really good. I still cook with them occasionally, but don't use very many in deference to his tastes.

I look forward to winter cooking, as I don't have all the produce washing to do. I canned garden tomatoes one year, peeling off all the skins, and all. My hands were red and raw for a week after that. To me, commercially canned tomatoes and tomato paste are convenience foods, so is ready-made pasta!<br /><br />I would love to find some lettuce at a rock-bottom price right now. I am so hungry for a summer salad. Well, there will be plenty of time for lettuce this spring and summer.<br /> Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-43722998638832737022014-01-20T05:46:13.067-08:002014-01-20T05:46:13.067-08:00We are stocked up on onions right now after a grea...We are stocked up on onions right now after a great sale about 6 or 7 weeks ago. My daughter who does not like raw onions, loves them when they are cooked. She always comments that the house smells so good when I make them. This dish looks terrific.

We have frozen cooked squash, beets, green beans, a few greens (Swiss chard), tomatoes, and corn. Some years we have frozen asparagus as well. We don't grow broccoli or cauliflower so I occasionally pick some up at Aldi to add a little variety. Aldi also occasionally has rock-bottom prices on lettuce or spinach so I'll add that in the mix. Having our own garden and freezing much of our produce has made me realize that the definition of "convenience food" is really broader than I had thought before--being able to pull something out of the freezer and re-heat it is definitely more convenient than planting, tending, picking, cleaning, and cooking veggies like we do in the summer.
