Roasting the green pepper first would probably be nice, along with some cabbage.

The frist meal is called "Züricher Geschnetzeltes" in Europe, very popular in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Often comes with "Rösti"hash browns as side.

I bet the chickpea recipe was trying to have a middle Eastern bent on it. Maybe instead of doing bell peppers and onions do cucumber, tomato and red onion with chickpeas, and then I would do sesame oil for flavor cumin, dill, or you could do curry powder in the Greek yogurt sauce. It's up to you and your family what you like. Also put lemon juice in with the Greek yogurt. I make my own tzatziki sauce which is similar and is out of this world with Greek yogurt olive oil, dill, garlic powder, salt and shredded cucumber with the excess water squeezed out, and lemon juice.

I think the chili sauce called for in the fish recipe is like Heinz chili sauce, sold near the ketchup. It is a little tangy, much like cocktail sauce. I think your use of Asian chili sauce was brilliant. We are trying to eat more fish, I will certainly give that recipe a try. I really like the frozen bags of broccoli that Aldi sells. Very reasonable and nice spears of broccoli instead of chopped up mush. Fun video!

I think you’re absolutely right. I hadn’t heard of that chili sauce until recently and I bet that’s what they were referring to. The Asian chili sauce was absolutely incredible though! I hope you love it when you try it too! And I completely agree with you about the broccoli! The broccoli in this video is ALDI frozen broccoli 😄 it’s the best!

Heinz chili sauce is an incredibly versatile condiment - was the tomato product that was hardest for me to give up when tomatoes had to go (migraines don’t like tomatoes 😢) from slow cooker baked beans to holiday time cheeseball to meatloaf’s best friend - yep a really wonderful product 🇨🇦🙏

The chickpea salad does not sound good at all lol Maybe if the bell pepper and onion were sautéed first? But I like to make chickpea salad in place of chicken salad or tuna salad. So maybe that’s a chickpea idea for you. Basically just sub in the chickpeas for meat. You can mash them totally, leave chunky or , leave whole. I prefer totally mashed. I usually add all the ingredients together and blend with my hand blender. I also like to skin the chickpeas, but that’s totally personal preference, bc it take a minute….or 20 to do 🤣 Roasted/crispy chickpeas would be delish with the peanut noodles, along with roasted sweet potatoes, roasted mushrooms and roasted carrots 😋 I used to roast up all that and other veggies, make a peanut dressing and keep it in the fridge to make Buddha bowls. Sometimes serving with rice, noodles or lettuce or none of that and just toss together. Super yummy! Roasted red cabbage is delicious with that as well.

@LauraLegge 9 ай бұрын
Thank you! I think you’re right that the chickpea salad may have been similar to a chicken or tuna salad. I bet it would actually be tasty on bread with a few extra ingredients added in. I’ll have to try those crispy chickpeas in the peanut noodles! That sounds perfect!!

I think maybe if you grate the onion and use red bell pepper but I saw some of suggest the cucumber and tomatoes that would work too you can put some cucumber in there and just kind of jazz it up a little bit more
@LauraLegge
@LauraLegge 9 ай бұрын
Those are great suggestions! I agree, I think the cucumber would make a big difference. It just needs something sweet to balance out all the intense flavors from the onion and bell pepper. And I definitely think you’re right about the red bell pepper too - so much better raw than green.

Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours. I usually do this over night to use the next day or so. I usually double or Trible this recipe and slow cook it overnight so I will have it the next day.

CROCKPOT FRENCH ONION SOUP You'll Need 3 pounds yellow onions, peeled, cut in half and thinly sliced 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 ½ teaspoons kosher salt ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or more to taste 2 sprigs fresh thyme ¼ cup balsamic vinegar 8 cups (2 32-ounce cartons) beef broth ⅓ cup brandy, optional but recommended 4 to 6 baguette slices, toasted (1 slice per bowl) 1 ⅓ to 2 cups grated Gruyere cheese (⅓ cup per bowl) How To Put the onion slices in a 5-quart (or larger) slow cooker, along with the butter, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. you can put as much onions as your crock pot/slow cooker will hold because they cook down and then divide for recipes! Cover the crockpot and cook on low overnight, or for 10-12 hours. The onions should be dark golden brown and soft. Add the beef broth, balsamic vinegar, and fresh thyme. Cover and continue cooking on low for 6 to 8 hours. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper, if desired, and stir in the brandy, if using. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).In evenly-portioned amounts, ladle the soup into oven-safe bowls. Place the bowls on a baking sheet to catch any spills while in the oven. Top each bowl with a baguette slice and the shredded Gruyere. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the cheese is completely melted. Turn the oven to broil and brown the tops for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and browned. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before enjoying! I usually just do a baking sheet full of sliced French bread with garlic butter and any cheese on them that we have since we usually eat 2 or 3 slices when eating one or 2 bowls of French Onion soup. I do not bother with the broiler because I don't like my bread crusty or hard Oh, this soup looks SO good, don't you agree? We love having it do all the work while we take care of other things on our to-do lists. Have you ever made French onion soup in the slow cooker before? Do you have any tricks of your own for making the classic dish at home?
