Food and Recipes while under Coronavirus quarantine #8

The Super Bowl will be airing here at 6:30 tomorrow and we'll be having cocktail meatballs with cranberry glaze, hubby's wings, hot & smoky baked beans, potato salad, Asian dumplings, crudites, and some kind of dessert that won't be left over for days since I've only just cleared out the Xmas baked goods.

A really simple puree soup here: 400g/14oz frozen chopped bell peppers, 1 cauliflower (just cut all branches off), add water and bouillon cube, when soft enough, add 200g/70z cheese spread and use a blender to make it into a puree.
Food done!

I’ve just been cooking soups and stews. Too cold outside to be inspired

I am cooking appetizers for a Super Bowl party tomorrow. Several different baked dips and also some desserts.

It's been a bit since I have said HELLO on one of my favorite threads.

Since it is winter here in the northern US I have been making a lot of comfort food. Today I am making pork chops with "from scratch" scalloped potatoes.

What's everyone making for the Super Bowl? It's just me and Mr. Pirate so I will try and keep it small. I am going to make a crock pot of chili. I also have some cocktail sauce and shrimp.

I cooked brownies (for a change!) but they were a bit of a disaster because I misread the recipe and used completely the wrong size tin. Still tasted good! But they were only a half inch high and more like cookies in texture. They'll be great when I make them again, in the right tin.

Still looked pretty!

Is this a peanut butter brownie? I've made them before. Peanut butter and chocolate is a delicious duo

Yes! It tastes great, I just goofed and grabbed my large rectangular tin rather than my small one, so there was way too little batter to fill it properly.

Next time, I'm just going to make it in my eight inch square tin like I usually use for brownies. I think the volume will be fine.

Small household here: we will be making crockpot chili and nachos for the superb owl. Neither of us are big fans, so we tend to keep it on the big screen in the great room and wander in and out. It's just a day of self-indulgence, mainly.

I need some suggestions. I seldom use canned soups but I did like to use Campbell’s Cream of Shrimp Soup in a few different recipes.

Well it turns out that Campbell’s discontinued the Cream of Shrimp back in 2024.

Anyone have any ideas on making a substitute I can use in recipes?

I guess I’m allowed to post it as I’ve seen a few other recipes and grocery lists.
Hopefully all of us will have freshly stocked stores soon. My next trip will be before 5a.m., I’ll go one morning when I wake early & feel like dealing with it.

Use them to make a pseudo Alfredo sauce over shrimp pasta??

One recipe is a baked cauliflower dish and the other is called Michelin fish.

I’ve been on a homemade Chick fil A chicken sandwich kick this week. I bought Purdue frozen breaded chicken patties & regular hamburger buns. I love pickles so I add extra and I use mustard only. I don’t butter the buns, no need to.

I buy a shrimp bouillon from Asian supermarket. In packet, dried. It is strong but have mixed it with cream and herbs, very good. Would work on your cauli dish.

Also, talking about green peppers a few days ago.. I roast them with lots of lemon juice, olive oil and chili flakes.

Nice as side to meat or fish

When I google this, they're saying consider the cream of celery (really like the cream of celery/use this one a lot for things). I would think cream of mushroom, too, or cream of potato. Maybe chop some shrimp right in, like already cooked shrimp. OR/and maybe make some shrimp broth with shells and/or paste and add that in? Maybe dried or canned shrimp.

They then alternatively recommend the broth thing, but in conjunction with making the shrimp soup from scratch (wth roux, cream, whole deal).

Still looking, here's someone's recipe. I saw Campbell's uses tomato paste in there, I don't think this one does the tomato paste:

Seeing Knorr has shrimp bouillon cubes, and I think Better Than Bouillon has a seafood one.

That's kind of bad they got rid of this soup, though, because there's not another canned cream product for this, I don't think. I mean I'm sure there is somewhere, but I'm not seeing it. Seems like the closest fastest option is doctoring up another of the Campbell's cream soups. (I like the celery, but the potato might be easier and more neutral in terms of doctoring it up.)
