Three Wall's pork sausages. Smash instant potato with a dollop of cream cheese. Heinz spaghetti hoops. I'm struggling with that third sausage though. "Hell this meal is probably only just an appetiser for you lot.

your caricature of the dining habits of "Essex man", in that this perpetuates the overseas perception that the British (and especially the English?) are a little "odd" in lots of ways, and particularly in their sense of humour... This perception is of course sometimes entirely justified...In these rather volatile times, a little stability is appreciated...
Chez feet's, yesterday's meal of choice was Saltimbocca alla foggiano...
Have happy times!

Buy boneless chicken breasts, place in an oven safe dish. We use a Pyrex cake pan. Cover chicken with your choice of canned spaghetti sauce, shake grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken and bake in oven at 350 or so until done.Serve with spaghetti or any pasta you wish. We like green beans as a side dish.
Total prep time, less than 5 minutes.
Cooking time, approx. 1 hour, perhaps a bit more.Really good! Great when all you want to do is collapse on the couch and turn into a rutabaga.
Sleaze the day!
Waay better than a lot of Pizza Shop pizza I've had. Really good. Especially when yer batch'n it.The only other prepared meals I've had that were halfway decent were Marie Callender's

They're actually quite good if you sprinkle on a small amount of hot red peppers - the little flakes that come in a glass jar - to spice things up a bit. Served with a garden salad and frosty beer or two, or a red table wine, one pizza makes a decent meal for two.

Cooked on a pizza stone that is. Preheat the stone in the oven at 400 for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, put some thin sliced Roma or San Marzano tomatoes on top of the pizza and cover the pie gracefully with mozzarella.
Cook for 18 minutes at 400 and treat the pizza to a 180 turn for even browning of the cheese. Continue cooking for about 12-14 more minutes. Remove from oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before sliding off to slice. The 5 minute rest will turn the bottom crust to a nice golden brown.
Everything else is up to you.
I guess I'm spoiled by this place a block or two from me...the best thin crust I've ever had...
Try to get pizza in Baldwin, MD. It is a hit and miss Papa John's is at least consistent.dee
;-D
True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country.
That's easy for you to say, but I hear you. There's a place even closer that I tried once and will never go back to, a chain with dozens of locations in the area as well as other states. At the moment I count six pizza places in my town of 10,000, so I guess we have enough :-)
Best and most unique deep dish. I now live in the MD suburbs of DC. No good pizza for miles, so my wife makes her own and getting pretty good at it.
I'm in Barrington, which is a good 20 miles or so from there, but I'll definitely look them up and try to go there sometime when I'm in that neck of the woods.
Is there a consensus on pizza crusts here?
I prefer a medium crust that has a nice char on the bottom myself. It takes a great oven to do that. The best in the KC, MO area is from either D'Bronx Deli or Waldo Pizza.
is in KC?Where's Waldo?
D'Bronx Deli was started by a couple of New Yorkers. The original is on the corner of 39th and Bell in KC, Mo, just east of KU Med Center. There's also a branch office in the shopping area of Crown Center, also in KC, Mo. It's just across the street from Union Station. They make a great low-fat cheese pizza that is so popular that you have to make reservations for one. Remember, KC is one of the "fattest" cities in the US so its got to be great to sell that well.
Waldo Pizza is less than a block north of the intersection of 75th and Wornall, on the east side of Wornall, in KC, MO. They've got a nice beer and wine menu to go along with the pies. The owner used to run a record shop until he saw the writing on the wall from CDs. From the licorice pizza to the pizza pie, a natural progression.
that's not quite so EZ. Plus - I hate thin crust

I'm not 'zackly in Chi-town - in fact about 30 miles or so northwest of the loop. My town is about 10,000 people although it doesn't seem that big and still has quite a bit of small town feel to it. As for places to eat they pretty much run the gamut from hot dog joints to fine dining...not a lot in between but a few exceptions like a low key paper napkin Italian deli/restaurant where everything is homemade, fresh, and quite reasonable.
