Tofu "ricotta" lasagna - http://instagr.am/p/2Uh6Qlr9eY "Chicken" francese - http://instagr.am/p/2brOkUL9a1 "Chicken" enchiladas - http://instagr.am/p/2cNlpoxDAQ "Beef" stew "Chicken" parm (with some not so good veg cheese lmao) Sorry, I don't take too many pictures of my food but there's some lol. I love to cook. My husband and I have a kitchen agreement - I cook, he cleans haha. I'm allergic to dairy and I don't eat meat (neither does he) so I use a lot of tofu and seitan for my mock meats. I'm super jealous of some of these garden pictures though lol! tofu ricotta, what is that lol ?

BEER CAN CHICKEN aka Beer Butt Chicken There is a myth that baking a chicken this way somehow cooks it faster and infuses the chicken with the flavor of beer. It does not. There is a potato or an onion used to seal the neck to seal in the steam and preserve the moisture content. This a waste. The instructions that came with the stand say to pour half of the beer in the pan and leave the other half in the can. I pour all of the beer into a glass, drink it, leave the can empty and add water to the pan. I use this method because it is a convenient way to cook a whole chicken in a way it doesn't sit in it's own juices, and I like beer. All of the skin gets crispy. The chicken is first rubbed with olive oil and then coated with spices. In this case, I used my own Cajun mixture. The oil helps break down the spice mixture and adhere to the chicken. THE STAND I use an empty can as a spacer. Otherwise the bird sits too low. It takes about two hours at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, to cook a two pound chicken. If you use the metric system, you can use google to find conversions. No matter where I looked, I couldn't find a way to convert North American hours to European hours. Sorry. EDIT: If anyone tried to cook a two pound chicken for two hours, they no doubt burned the hell out of it. I meant to say five pound chicken. This is a leftover breast I sliced thin, covered with barbecue sauce and broiled. I used this to make a sandwich with pickles, onion and coleslaw. I didn't take a photo of the sandwich because I was too hungry.

I'm super jealous of some of these garden pictures though lol! tofu ricotta, what is that lol ? Crumbled tofu can have the same texture as a ricotta used in lasagna. I drain the water from the tofu block and proceed to crumble it with my fingers. To give it a little flavor I add some olive oil, lemon juice, dried parsley, oregano, fresh black pepper and garlic powder. On occasion I'll add some spinach but I prefer it without. i also add this dairy free Parmesan cheese that I found in wegmans and mix everything together.

My dad used to make beer can chicken when I was a little kid. We always called it "drunken chicken"

I have cooked *finds a problem translating it* beer chicken? chicken a la beer? in the same way it's done with wine, frying it (with olive oil, sliced onion and garlic) and then cooking it with beer (or white wine). If I have time I first cook some carrots and peeper-and if it's for just me, I also pour some tomato sauce. It does taste like beer (or, again, wine depending on what you've used)

It does taste like beer (or, again, wine depending on what you've used) Of course you never thought of such a thing. This kind of original "out of the box" thinking often comes only from America. Like the invention the light bulb, the atomic bomb and toad licking. Yes, I said toad licking. One of my genius countrymen "discovered" that if you pissed off the right kind of toad and licked it, you could get high. Not all of our original thinking is truly beneficial to society. Like the invention of the atomic bomb and licking the wrong kind of toad will kill you. I have to wonder about the thought processes of these American pioneers. What made that first guy (and you know it was not a girl) think it was a good idea to lick a toad? On the other hand, I can see myself with a half can of beer in my right hand and a dead chicken in my left hand and thinking "yeah, I can make this work".

I'm from Yorkshire, I have gravy and yorkshires with most meats Okay I'll forgive you. I suppose it's no different from eating 'toad in the hole', which is a huge Yorkshire pudding with sausages in it.
