"hor de orves"

Never liked that word for some reason Debra. I think your spelling is better.

Any way , how about some scallop and bacon and jack cheese stuffed jalepenos?

Grind cooked bacon (not crisp) , add to coarse chopped scallops and shredded cheese (easy on bacon and cheese -you want mostly meat with just enough cheese for a binder for the stuffing mix), carefully slit one side of the pepper and clean out seeds and veins, stuff, coat with olive oil and bake or batter up and fry- but that might require beer instead of wine. You can leave out the bacon for a simpler taste and also sub shrimp or abulon' for the scallop

Holy Guacamole :

Fresh avocados (do you know where Fallbrook is?)

Smash 'em to Hell...

Add seasoning salt, diced onions, diced tomatos, cilantro, Tapatio or ? brand hot sauce... all above to taste.

Mix well... top with shreadded cheese and now you have a taste of Heaven.

Serve with rectangular restaurant style tortilla chips.

Use any old corn muffin recipe and and add grated cheese (cheddar or monterrey), chopped green chiles (canned will do, but freshly roasted are better), cumin, oregano, maybe drained canned sweet corn. Bake them in mini muffin or tiny tart pans. Make them as close to the time of the event as possible, for sure on the same day. Be careful not to overbake them. If they feel soft but srping back when touched gently they are done.

Thanks guys and gals! What I most love is not one "1/2 cup this, half ounce that" (that isn't how I cook either!) This is COOKING!

Please keep the ideas coming, I'm printing them all out....I love new ideas and 'mix them up', I'll let you know if I kill anyone! :spingrin:

Fundido - super easy and everyone likes it.

Use Monterey Jack - you can dice it or shred it (a knife is easier to clean then the shredder so I opt for that) if you want to add, saute some onions and mushrooms as well or roast some poblanos, skin and julienne (rajas). Another good one is to saute some chorizo and add that. Just a small amount. Put all into a small casserole dish and into the oven at 350 for about 15 minutes. Serve immediately with chips. You'll want to cook this AT the party!

You want super easy one -- a can of chili with meat, package of cream cheese. Mix together, heat and eat with chips. Heat enough to melt the cream cheese!

Aren't you in the Northwest? A few dozen fresh oysters on the half shell, a squeeze of lime juice and a couple of drops of Tapatio on each. Bam! as the guy on TV says.

And David, no tomatoes and onions in my guacamole. No sir. Guacamole (avocado, salt, black pepper, finely diced serrano or jalapeno chile, and lime juice) goes in one bowl, pico de gallo (tomatoes, white onion, chopped chiles, chopped cilantro, lime juice) goes in another bowl.

Dan O,

No garlic in the guacamole?? I put tomatoes in sometimes, but I think clasic guacamole is avocado, fresh lime juice, fresh garlic and salt, with chile optional.

No garlic in my guacamole, no ma'am. I'll tolerate a little cilantro in addition to the classic lineup of ingredients, but that's about it. Plus, chopping all that extra stuff up takes too much time and I'm hungry, dang it!

Jerry, is there a red tide up north, or are all the oysters up there in a spawning cycle?

Heat up some Argentinian parboiled beef and it turns out like muchaca string beef, chopped up avacado, onions, refried beans, shredded cheese, chopped peppers and some homemade tortilla chips and voila....don't forget the salsa.

Oysters that aren't farmed should only be eaten in months with an R in the name. JanuaRy, FebruaRy, MaRch, ApRil, SeptembeR, OctobeR, NovembeR, DecembeR!! Farmed oysters are good year round!

Oh, that reminds me... lime juice and garlic in the Holy Guacamole too!

Whatever you got, put it in! Sorry Dan-O... but, no reason why we can't make one the way you like too!

How about deviled eggs??? Baja Angel makes great deviled eggs!!!

Now I am getting hungry!!!

Good thing I have a tri tip marinated with Santa Maria herbs and spices, in the oven!
