An SOS meal that feeds the busy soul
Here, I offer the meal that feeds everyone, with a simple potato, egg, and any vegetables or herbs you just happen to have on hand. I still like best:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Scrub on potato per dinner.
- Pierce each one with fork, and cook for one hour.
- Build fort with children.
- Drop the same number of eggs into simmering water to poach them. (3-4 minutes.)
- Toss vegetables with olive oil and vinegar.
- Split potatoes and fill each half with eggs and vegetables.
- Salt to taste.

Nice. Kind of like MK Fisher.

I like it when people write their recipes in prose, but when I try to recreate it, I always seem to miss something. Bullets are nice, too.
Great meal idea to pass on. I may have to try it!

Mmmm. That sounds tasty. I’ll have to look up Frances Boswell for my Honey. He loves to cook and will probably consider her a kindred spirit.

Sprouts are probably my favourite green vegetable – but they have to be done properly! My family used to pressure cook them to death. Now I’m not happy unless they’re steamed and lightly steamed at that – love the garlic idea, though.
