Or, Chicken apple sausage with pasta and Alfredo sauce..
Can't make up my mind.

Both sound great TGT, I'd go with the Chinese sausage since I've never tasted it before.
I haven't really cooked in a long time. Used to be pretty good at it. Maybe I'll come out of hibernation. But if you cook it you have to eat it, then you have to exercise to get rid of it.
Maybe a can of tuna, lettuce and tomatoes tonight with olive oil and lemon pepper seasoning. :D

I fell for buying one of the megapacks at Sams. I've had it before at REAL Chinese restaurants and it's really good.
What I didn't realize it is treated as a spice, not a meat dish.
I think I have enough to supply Goudong Provence for a week.

Chaz, that Dutch oven looks divine!
Here we marinated chopped up leg of lamb in an Indian curry-vinegar mix, stewed it in an onion-garlic-ginger paste, and devoured it with a bottle of Chilean wine. Sort of an Old World-New World fusion.

OK!
Mountain trips---something to eat.
River trips---gourmet feasts.
In 2006, due to a unplanned logjam, our small group got an extra-night on the coveted Middle Fork Salmon.
Since two members had to fly out to meet business obligations: we did not quite starve on our 8 NIGHT 9 DAY MIDDLE FORK FLOAT!

Steve W.: Heidi becomes "The Princess Heidi" on river trips.
She rows Class IV, but demands a solar shower and clean clothes at the end of the day.
There was some "suffering" upstream on this trip. We had to portage the rafts and all the food, liquor, ice, and crap---------yes we did also have to also portage our required "porta-potty" and its load of crap: 1 & 1/2 miles around an unplanned thunderstorm-induced logjam.
Here's a little bit more on the logjam and portage:from a river-running thread on ST this spring.

Three Dollar Pizza! ( about $2.85, actually )
Made my own crust this time, which cut a couple bucks off the cost. Was simple, too. Used active dry yeast and did the let-it-rise-and-punch-it-down-a-couple-times thing. One yeast batch made two pizza crusts.
The sauce is leftover spaghetti sauce I made last week ( I priced it at $1 for my pizza cost calculation [$40 for 2 1/2 gallons of spaghetti sauce = $1/cup ] )
The crust fit my 14" D.O. fine.
It took an hour to cook though, because I was too timid to put enough heat on the underside of the D.O. Next time ( which will be soon, I have a dough in the 'fridge ready-to-go already ), I'll try 12 coals on the bottom, up from eight, to see what happens.
The best part? I'm getting two meals out of The Three Dollar Pizza!

The Three Dollar Pizza, Mk-III ( I think I got a RECIPE worked up )
Crust is your basic stock-parts pizza crust, which will make enough dough for two 14" Dutch Oven pizzas. ( 2 1/2 cups flour, one .25oz pack active dry yeast, 1 cup water - heated to 115*F, salt ) Pepper, onion and garlic powder customize the crust to my specs.
There's pepperoni and chopped bacon under the cheese. Homemade spaghetti sauce for the sauce. Mozzarrella, Parmesian, and Colby Longhorn are the cheeses.
I did brush a heavy coat of Olive Oil on the dough after it was pressed into the Dutch Oven, before I applied any of the toppings. I believe the olive oil prevents the toppings from fouling the crust.
I cooked the whole works together for about a half-hour,( 14 briquettes on the bottom, 40 on top ), turning both the lid and the oven itself 90* every five minutes, or so, to get what we see here.
F*#king delicious. This is at least tied for the best pizza I've ever eaten, and there are a number of ways I think I can make it even better!
The second half will taste even better tomorrow!
Did I mention the whole damn thing cost me about three dollars?
