I had some people over like usual, Bri and Courtney. They were excited about cooking with me and I was glad to have company. I surveyed our ingredients and was unimpressed. Ham, potatoes, herbs and Bearnaise sauce. I think we threw some thickening agent in there and also some yum onions, all topped with crushed Ritz crackers. I was kinda nervous about all of these things just being cooked and then mixed and cooked in the oven again. However, with us three brains in the kitchen we tasted and looked and smelled this dish until it became a wondrous creation. It looked disgusting and like vomit a little but let me tell you that it got 4 and 5 across the board. It was warm and homey like a cabin in the snowy woods (even though it is 100 degrees here) and it reminded me of how people must have created recipes in the old days. I sure wish I would have wrote this one down. The weird part was the asparagus on the side with hollindaise sauce. It just didn't fit our country meal it seemed classy and snobby sitting there next to our terrific mushy mess of a casserole. So it brought the whole meal to a whopping 4 with a little extra points on the side.
Thanks to those girls though it would have been a uglier mess. Thanks for cooking with me...it's an adventure!
