What's for Dinner? Cauliflower Fried Rice

What's Glenn making for dinner? I am calling it Cauliflower Fried Rice with Fried Chicken and Poached Egg - because that is what it is. Cauliflower rice is so versatile. It takes on any seasonings you add and gives you that "comfort food" feeling you get from traditional starchy rice - but it is a vegetable. Probably a good way to get kids who love rice to try more vegetables.

Trying Lay's Flamin' Hot Dill Pickle Potato Chips

If you like potato chips with some real heat, try these.  I think they are hotter than Flamin' Hot Cheetos.  And the heat builds.  Have milk on standby if you are susceptible.   They made me sweat.  


The combination of the spice and vinegar from the dill pickle flavor reminds me of some Carolina BBQ sauces I have had.  Sadly, they don't have too much dill pickle flavor - mainly vinegar. If you like pickle flavor,, the regular Dill Pickle flavor of Lay's really brings that home.

Something to Spice Up Your Chili

While I think a dollop of sour cream adds a great creaminess to homemade chili, I found something even better. Add a spoonful (or more) of pimento cheese. It gives you the creaminess of sour cream but also another layer of heat. And if you want to add even more flavor, a few shakes of my favorite hot sauce.
