Okay, this is a family recipe and both my grandmothers on each side and my mom love making this. It will take you about 10 mins to start and finish and is beyond easy!
Ken and i made this last night and he was stunned on the whole thing. YUM YUM!
What you will need:
4 green onions
3 tablespoons butter
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon flour or cornstarch
1 cup milk
1 can sock eye salmon (keep can juice & take bones out)
OR
1 can reg sized tuna (keep can juice)
How to do it:
in a pot
1) ADD: onions chopped, butter, garlic - on med heat.
Sautee them - so til onions are softened and butter melted.
2) ADD: in flour and milk - stir well so there are no clumps.
3) Toss in can fish juice and fish
4) Stir fairly fast. It needs to thicken, and the flour has to be hot to thicken.
This will turn out a bit thicker then chowder.
How to Eat it:
We all have our preferences - add salt/pepper/lemon is ya want.
MOM: with toast - scoop onto toast with each bite of toast
GMA: she likes it with rice
ME: I like it on potatoes
Ken: on the monkey bread AKA - garlic bread with cheese.
OR just outta a bowl! however you want.

Welcome!!!
Welcome ladies and gents to a blog that has been a long time coming.
There will be a few people adding to this blog and helping, some will be taste-test victims, and others will be for recipe content.
When I say that this blog has been a long time coming it's because I know many men and a few ladies that don't cook, period. That is strange to me...anyway, I used to post recipes on my old myspace, mainly squash dishes and the reception was great!
Over the past few months I have spent time with a few new friends and my man cooking up a storm with them. We've been trying out new things in the kitchen (keep it clean kids)and cooking some classic recipes that are the best comfort foods out there... **FOR all you Vegan and Vegitarians, there will be some versions for you too.
So for all of you who don't cook for themselves, don't know how to cook, have no idea how much fun it can be, are too busy to try/learn, and perhaps may just be a bit afraid and have no idea where to begin, here it is!
Whatever the case may be, this blog should help inspire you to be gourmet!
With this blog there are a few goals that I really think need to be reached - they are:
1) Feel confident in the kitchen
2) Save some serious cash by cooking at home
3) How to have fun with people while cooking/drinking while cooking.
4) Make some amazing foods with ease - ease on time, money, and stress.
5) Surprise yourself, your friends, your family, and anyother loved one or potential loved one(s)..ha!
