I kept the onions and white potatoes whole. I cut the squash in 3 discs, most carrots I kept whole some I cut in half. Sweet potato I cut up and parsnips left whole. Cut turnip.
I get a big bowl throw in all the Vegetables along with hens. Add butter, and oil. Along with all the spices. Get in there with your hands and mix well until everything is coated nicely. I use my cast iron pizza pan. Put the 3 hens down then the 3 big pieces of squash down. I make 3 big stuffing balls to sit in the squash discs. Then with the remaining of room start stacking and placing on the vegetables on the pan. Sticking parsnips, carrots and or celery inside the hens as well. Fill in all the spots. With left over stuffing I also stuff some in here and there, wherever I can find room lol. What next you say?!

Seafood Chowder » RecipeCollage.com » November 22, 2024
I find its really hard to get chowders to taste the same. Especially when your using different seafoods each time. And I know for me. I never have the same stuff on hand. This one had a nice variety, we loved it!
I like a full soup. I don’t want just broth, I want each bowl filled with seafood and vegetables.
I used
A package of clams
A package of small shrimp & scallops
14 black tiger shrimp
2 kinds of white fish cubed
Celery, carrots, onions, & potatoes
Can of corn
Garlic
Bay leaves, thyme, parsley, salt, & pepper
6-8CUPS chicken stock
1CUP half & half (if you like things rich, use cream)
1/2CUP flour

Fry up the onions, garlic, carrots, celery, cut potatoes with some Vegetable oil and some of the salt pepper. I use the Dutch oven I’m making my soup in. Fry for a few minutes til onions start to soften. Add in the flour and mix well. Turn the heat up. Add your stock and all your herbs and salt pepper. Bring to boil, stirring frequently, light boil til Veggies are done. Will be nicely thickened.

Last 20 minutes add in the corn, all seafood and your half and half milk and or cream.
Lucky loves to supervise, he’s pretty good at it if I do say so myself.
Lucky always has to be right beside mom and dad!
We have the PC Choice brand but this one works just the same.

Herbed hash browns! Cut potatoes, vegetable oil, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary & parsley. I put everything in large ziplock bag and shake. Then you can either bake them if you like crispy ones or pan fry them in cast iron which is what I did. Once cooked I like to throw some cut green onions on them.

Same pan again. Eggs your way! Hubby and I like sunny side up, which is what we had this morning. Accompanied by a side of beans which was cooked over the open fire in our Alberta backyard. Serve with your favorite toast.
