Quote from: "seoulbro"I can understand TD, about getting sick of chicken. They eat so much of it in the Caribbean and Central America.

My wife and I are thinking about retiring in Belize or Panama. I don' t know if we adjust to local cuisine to save money.

Never visited Belize. Panama as you might know is pretty much first world. Either way it's rice and beans. Apart or together. Here they call it Gallo Pinto. I've learned to like it.

Quote from: "Peaches"I've only ever run across one recipe that does seem to work better with cream soup.  It's a smothered Georgia style pork chop recipe.  You brown 4 nice rib chops in cast iron, turn down the heat, put a 6mm slice of white onion on each one, pour the sauce over, cover and simmer really low for 20 to 30 minutes.



The sauce is condensed cream of asparagus or celery, a half can, diluted with a third of a cup of apple juice that you've heated and melted a quarter cup of peanut butter into, and some fresh ground white or black pepper...It sounds awful, but you can't really taste the peanut butter.  I usually add a pinch of celery seed to the sauce as well.
