• I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.

FulMedamestosphot.jpgBreakfast - Ful Medames, regional variation using long/slow-cooked leftover pinto beans. The simple minimalist version a la Claudia Roden - plain beans with additions of choice at the table: a drizzle of ev olive oil, chopped onions (green), chopped gresh mint, squeeze of lemon, freshly made flatbread to accompany.

Plus my chimmichuri version in the small jar - hot, spicy, pungent, tart - good on everything

I'll have to try it with pinto beans. I've got pounds of those. 👍

Lunch today.
I made a half sheet tray full of these little gems.
Pillsbury® Ham & Swiss Pinwheels
Simple to make.
Pillsbury® Crescent Sheet filled with your favorite meat and cheese, rolled up into a log, sliced and baked.
I haven't made this in a while, but I recall last time I did, it was filled with sliced Pepperoni & shredded Mozz.
DH was over the Moon. He said they're like mini Stromboli, but better.

Nice!
I've always meant to buy some of those pillsbury things. It seems like you can do a lot with them.
