Thank you for that. I've added it to my recipe book. I now have three recipes. In return, I'll share with you my favorite.

Hagymaleves (Hungarian Onion Cream Soup, pronounced hodge - ma - le - vesh):

Caution: This is enough soup for 10. It's not an entree.

5 chopped onions
2 cans or 1 box vegetable broth
Butter
1 tbsp flour
1 cup white cooking wine
Paprika (about 3 tsp)
Salt & pepper (to taste)
Red pepper flakes (Use an amount proportional to how spicy you want to make it. I barely use any, since no one I make this for likes spicy stuff.)
1 pint heavy whipping cream
1 sliced baguette
White cheese

1. Saute onions in the bottom of a big pot until glassy.
2. Add white cooking wine, then flour to thicken.
3. Add vegetable broth and let simmer for 30 minutes.
4. Add cream.
5. Add seasonings to taste and let simmer for 10 minutes.
6. Toast baguette with cheese on top in oven.
7. Serve soup with one slice of cheesy baguette floating on top.
8. Enter Heaven.

My unique recipe? Bologna sandwich. Peanut butter, cheese, bologna, ketchup, and pickles. Sometimes, I'll even add mustard. It's really good, and as my dad and I say, it tackles all the major food groups!

As wonderful as that sounds, I think I'll stick to my usual sandwiches of everything available on the sandwich tray.

Today I had three different meats, six different grilled vegetables, lettuce, onions, pickles, and mayonnaise.

That sounds good.

 

[Darkstone42]

That sounds good.

Yes, the meats were ham, roast beef, and turkey. I also added Swiss and American cheese. The grilled vegetables were cauliflower, broccoli, red onions, carrots, red peppers, and yellow peppers. It was tasty. Sides of potato salad and baked garlic chips and a cookie. And it was free.

 

[naslundfan19]

Free makes it even better!

 

[Darkstone42]

Free makes it even better!

Truth.

I just told my girlfriend about your brownies, Tyler, and she responded that the only thing allowed to replace flour in her brownies is more chocolate.

I think I found a keeper. =P

 

[ritari330]

Thanks for your recipe Chris! You probibly don't know this, but I do/did aspire to become a chef. It varies often as to how reaslistic of a dream I think it is.

I believe you've mentioned it. But like I said on the recipe disclaimer, don't try to eat all of that or eat it as an entree. You'll feel like crap. It's really heavy.

Mine hasn't ever seen a hockey game, but she started to look up names I mentioned while talking to her and she came back the next day telling me that Jordan Staal was a hottie

 

[Darkstone42]

For those of you who have seen I Love You, Man, there is an actual song titled "Slap That Bass." It's a pretty nifty tune, too.

I'm waiting until next semester to work on this project. I just don't have the appropriate time to dedicate to the endeavor right now.
