BooksRule July 20, 2018 Share July 20, 2018 I had a historical society meeting tonight and had volunteered to bring food (we were planning wine and cheese). I was told to prepare for 40 or 50, so when I couldn't find a decent cheese platter already made up at the store (I waited until the last minute, of course), I bought a big block of sharp cheddar and a block of Monterrey Jack and cut it all into cubes. (I also brought some green grapes and a couple of kinds of crackers). Anyway, we had about 25 people show up, so I brought about half of the cheese home. I like cheese, but that's a lot of cheese! Any ideas on some recipes to help use it up? I know you can freeze cheese (realizing that the texture will change somewhat, but I would be using it in recipes, not just for snacking). Also, tips for how to keep it as fresh as possible for as long as possible would be good, too. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/12531-i-need-a-recipe/page/12/#findComment-4505618

They make cheese bags, but if you don't have those, use wax paper or cheese cloth to wrap the cheese, then put that in a plastic bag that is not entirely sealed or loosely wrap again in foil. The big mistake many people (and many stores!) make is wrapping cheese, tightly, in plastic. You don't want the plastic directly touching the cheese, nor do you want the storage airtight. You want a balance between letting it breathe and not drying it out. (Best storage practices vary by cheese, but for the two you're dealing with, this should work for both.) And don't let it get too cold (so, in a refrigerator drawer, basically). 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/12531-i-need-a-recipe/page/12/#findComment-4506150

My boyfriend has a cheese addiction and goes multiple times a week to various cheese shops/counters and we always have random bits of cheese and wax paper keeps it fresh and cheddar and jack keep sharp longer and you can scrap off the exterior mold and still eat it, don’t do that with soft cheeses but cheddar and jack are fine.

annzeepark914 July 26, 2018 Share July 26, 2018 I don't know if this is helpful but when my GI system acts up, I go out and buy a rotisserie chicken (I only eat the white meat--and no skin) and have it with rice (now I get Uncle Ben's Ready Rice...regular or basmati) or a baked potato. The only soup I'll eat during this time would be Ramen--sometimes I'll add some pieces of chicken to it. Or, I'll just have rice (if I'm feeling really rough, the rice will be plain, no butter). I was going to suggest tapioca pudding but you're limiting dairy and the recipe on the box calls for 2 cups of milk (love that tapioca pudding; I can easily eat the whole bowl). It's the pits having digestive issues. Everyone else is eating fabulous foods and you're limited to the boring stuff.

DeLurker July 27, 2018 Share July 27, 2018 @MargeGunderson - I'm a big fan of rice soup, basically a really simple congee. Start with a broth (rotisserie chicken bones are great for this), add a lot of small diced onions, a small about of rice (you can use already cooked rice or uncooked, but it slurps up the broth), some miso (or Lipton Onion Soup mix), fine white pepper. Cover a simmer on low until the rice is done to your taste. You can dress it up to your taste - green onions, fresh ginger, other veggies...add a protein to your bowl right before you eat it. I keep all sorts of bones to make this, so whatever you might have on hand. I've also made it with store bought broth - chicken, beef, vegetables... I also like to have wonton soup when I don't feel well. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/12531-i-need-a-recipe/page/12/#findComment-4529497

chessiegal October 28, 2018 Share October 28, 2018 Reporting on the slow cooker mac 'n cheese using uncooked elbow recipe suggested to me above. I would call it a semi-success, as I didn't take it to the neighborhood party. It tasted great but didn't look particularly appetizing. At 90 minutes it was a soupy mess with not all the pasta cooked. I stirred it and 30 minutes later it was perfectly done. I didn't like the stringiness of the mozzarella. Next time I'll use all cheddar. It was also very pale, I guess because I used a white cheddar cheese. I wish I had sprayed the ceramic insert with oil. It also doesn't make very much - recipe says 8 servings, but seems exaggerated. Comments on the web site had lots of folks doubling it for pot lucks. The cooking time may not need to be increased. I also wonder if a traditionally shaped crock pot might be better suited. I used my new casserole shaped Crock Pot.

I just found Abuelita in powder form and had to give it a try. Much superior to your standard Swiss Miss packets (my kids love them). It may not be as good as making it from the solid chocolate form, but certainly a lot quicker and easier for just one cup. On 1/15/2018 at 9:13 PM, Fairfax said: The recipe is here. You can use the same amount of fresh tomatoes with their juices instead of canned -- you can use salted butter & omit adding salt. I don't discard the onion -- I save half of it for something else, & puree the other half in the blender with the tomatoes after everything is cooked. When I use the completed sauce later for meatballs or spaghetti, etc., I add garlic & basil &/or oregano to taste at that time. It is the best tomato sauce ever. This has become my favorite spaghetti sauce recipe. I'm trying it today in the slow cooker. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/12531-i-need-a-recipe/page/12/#findComment-4892902
