    a bunch of chopped cilantro
    Slivers of garlic, finely diced.
    Juice of one lime
    Salt
    Olive oil.
    2 cups of water

    Instructions
    In a medium saucepan heat 2 tablespoons of oil. Saute onions for a few minutes. Add rice and stir occasionally until lightly tan. Add garlic and cook one min only...do not burn.

    Add water, salt, cilantro...boil and simmer 15 to 20 mins or until water has evaporated.

    Fluff and add lime juice.

    It taste like the rice from chipotle restaurant.

    We cleared out my grandmas cupboards and fridge this summer and found things that expired in 2003 and 2005
  • Lady_AlisonLady_Alison Veteran
    @Arjquad that is what we had to do with our granny ...lady lived alone and hoarded like a Mofo she had two deep freezers the size of a coffins...you'd think they'd be full of dead bodies or stray cats she fed.

    We would have to drag her ass out and trick her into a day out while we hired a cleaning crew...thank you, Oprah, to hazmat her house.

    I shudder...

    I go through a lot of peanut butter. It's my go to low impact carb fix. My meds make it so that my cells, the ones I am dividing ;) , cannot take in sugar very well. Then the brain says waaa give me some sugar! So I get peanut butter bread.. I eat the whole grain bread.= though and it tastes good. Very simple.

  • JeffreyJeffrey Veteran
    that's kinda scary hehe Homeade peanut butter only lasts like two weeks in the fridge. I don't know what they put in peanut butter haha
  • Lady_AlisonLady_Alison Veteran
    @Jeffrey if u make your own, letme know.

    Recipes, details...

    Have you tried it with different nuts.

    If I'm not here tomorrow it's because I for food poisoning
    ...fyi
  • Lady_AlisonLady_Alison Veteran
    Typo..not for...got
  • JeffreyJeffrey Veteran
    Don't worry about food poisoning I think it has sooo much preservatives! Was the peanut butter separated ie oil on the top?

    peanut butter:

    15 oz roasted peanuts
    tsp salt
    3/2 teaspoons honey

    Add these to food processor bowl and process. Scrape down. Process again with top and drizzle in the peanut oil (3/2 tablespoon) slowly over 2 minutes.

    I haven't tried it yet. I received a food processor for a Christmas present. So far the 2 packages of roasted peanuts I bought I have eaten all!
  • Lady_AlisonLady_Alison Veteran
    Oh...yeah I had to stir it...the oil.

    I think it's alright.

    Thank you...that sounds like it taste better than jiffy...is pnut butter good for your brain?

    I love peanut butter and jam!:) One of the main things I eat for breakfast!:) Which peanut butter you use and which jam?
  • ArjquadArjquad Veteran
    I used to go camping alot (Eagle Scout) and peanut butter was great. I've been backcountry backpacking in Montana and went on a week ling kayak trip in the apostle islands. Over the trips we perfected the PB&J sandwich. It's similar to a normal sandwich, but instead of bread, peita (or peta) bread is much better.
  • Lady_AlisonLady_Alison Veteran
    I like penut butter with a hint of cinnamon on homemade bread, with honey and strawberry preserve.

    Leon, JIF peanut butter with no jam! Open face :) Yes breakfast. Peanut butter is a good breakfast if you think about it. High calorie to stick with you and protein to curb hunger. Protein, fat, sugar..

    I like with cinnamon too. And honey

    neat Arjquad sounds like fun
  • ArjquadArjquad Veteran
    Another great food for hiking/camping is rice krispie treats.
  • Lady_AlisonLady_Alison Veteran
    @Arjquad yummy...and trail mix...or foraging for weeds...
  • Lady_AlisonLady_Alison Veteran
    @Jeffrey..you should make a thread just about penut butter

    On my Montana trip, we didn't have breakfast since the other group took it from us, so we stoped on the trail next to some huckleberry bushes and picked fresh berries to eat from them, so delicious. To this day it has been the only berry that I can stomach without gagging.

    I'm in Chiang Mai. It's two in the afternoon and there seems to be a major fireworks display going off somewhere close by. Thai people sure like their fireworks.
