I was a vegetarian for 3 1/2 years and then went back to eating meat. Stan eats meat, but not mammals. Jesse is allergic to fish. So I can make chicken or turkey for dinner. I know that they make turkey/chicken/vegetarian everything now days, but it's not the same. It's good, but doesn't even come close to measuring up to real pork or beef.
Tomorrow we are having people over to hang out so I seized the opportunity to make beef stew for the first time in about 12 years. The amazing smell is permeating the house and I am so happy. It's one of my favorite meals not only to eat, but to make. When I was a kid, I would fry the beef cubes in Crisco and use a McCormick's Seasoning Packet. But now, I have matured. This stew is 100% homemade, I used olive oil, real herbs and spices, and IT TASTES AMAZING.
It will be served along side vegetarian chili, baked brie with apple and pear in a filio crust and lots of different kinds of bread. There will be apple pie and ice cream for dessert and plenty of drinks (alcoholic and non).
So come on over already. We have plenty for everyone!
