My hubbie bought some oreida breaded fried onion rings and baked them in the

That sounds like a great meal! How wonderful that he likes to cook. Taking turns is pretty neat. Good that the entire family enjoys it. Thanks and take care.

I don't have high blood pressure, but it runs in both familes and I try telling him, not too much salt, but like your husband, it seems that unless it is salty, it isn't good..But I think I got him to be a little conservative, we are not getting any younger and should watch what we eat..We also don't buy regular salt, we only buy sea salt, but salt is still to be used in moderation..

That's nice because soup does take some time and I love it during cold weather. Mine are healthier because I don't add salt. I try to tell him not to add any for mine but he's convinced it has no taste without it. He can't smell so his taste is affected. I have High Blood Pressure that is salt reactive. He was in a desert environement for many years and he works hard and swets every day. I don't. TAke care

Very, very true. All things in moderation. My husband can't smell so his taste is off and all the years in a desert, he had to eat a lot of salt. His body processes salt well. He did my diet for awhile, became dizzy and the Doctors told him to go back to what he was doing before because his blood pressure was too low and it had been just right. So I try to remind him to just put salt on his. Take care

I had an Uncle who was like that and I never knew until one day when my brother said, "I can make jello." My Uncle said, "Really, how do you do that?" So my Uncle kept looking at me and saying, "Is he right?" I said that he was. I went home and asked my Mom, "Oh your Uncle can't cook." 11 children in that family and a wife, who once they were all in school took a part-time job and he didn't even know how to make jello. I was incredulous. I never knew some men don't cook. But now some women don't either. I've met some. They just zap freezer meal or eat out! My Dad cooked. He was in the Military in the 40s. But he made potatoes for a platoon and pancakes, too! When my Mom was in the hospital, I came home from school to see the entire shelf of the oven full of potatoes. He was sooo proud. Spent a long time peeling potatoes. Coming up with what to do with an oven full of potatoes is a challenge. But Dad was up to it! Next day, we had the most humungous batch of hash browns I ever saw in my life. He kept complaining that nothing was big enough to cook in. He had been properly threatened and was sober her entire hospital stay. That's when I found out he had been in the Military, I didn't even know. The pancakes for a platoon, my brothers and I were up for that! You should have seen the huge container of oatmeal he made. We had oatmeal in cookies, meatloaf, etc. for about a week. Mom called and asked me how Dad was doing, I told her, "Great but you have to talk to him about how much food he makes at a time."

Everything sounds wonderful except for the green goo! I just can't get into guacamole, anybody's, just is not my style. But he does have a good selection of things for the outdoor grill. I like quiche, but that is an oven thing, I can see why he hasn't made it. Sounds delish! Thanks and take care.

My husband does a wonderful stir-fry, but when I do it, it comes out terrible. He only does one a year and it's October. Hey, I haven't gotten my stir-fry yet. I've got to go bug that man! Thanks and take care.

If he is a considerate husband, he will cook when you're sick. How will you know if he can cook before you get sick if he doesn't cook any other time? Take care
