My mother's day meal
LadyVirginia:
I had my mom over and I cooked lunch. I'd rather hang at home with my family than with a bunch of loud strangers and I like my cooking better! I made aglio e olio which is carmelized garlic and olive oil over pasta. I added sun dried tomatoes. Made my own bread sticks--should have made more --there weren't any leftover to snack on later. For dessert? Rice krispy treats.

Terrific. We have plenty. Plus there's pasta with marinara, fried chicken, bbq beans, rice, potato salad (I did just make that) and more rice krispy treats. I like nothing more that putting out a variety of food and let everyone get what they want. Bring your own chair though. We never seem to have enough.

I've made 'em a few times. Like any bean recipe, it takes time, this one preferably overnight in a low temp oven. The ingredients are pretty basic, except for the molasses. But once you've had homemade baked beans/pork 'n beans/beans 'n franks (take yer pick; I prefer beans 'n kosher beef franks with smoked slab bacon), the canned mush really s*cks.
