Who is this? I like Fleetwood Mac- Landslide...
I was hoping **someone else** would tell you about the guy in the bookstore, wink. It's not gonna be me.

Mick Fleetwood, of course, was the Fleetwood in Mac. All their songs are great. If not seen them, find the ones where they had the USC Marching Band on the stage. Nothing like horns with rock.

Inquiring minds want to know.
You do know CFS is steak, as in beef, right?

Nothing to do with chicken, other than the way it's cooked.

City Dude:  How's the fried chicken here?
Waitress:   Best in Texas.
City Dude:  Great, I'll have the chicken fried steak.
 
I believed Texas Roadhouse had a chicken fried chicken salad.
 
At least it wasn't CFS :-(

I think most places have a chicken salad, even fried chicken but I am no expert on chicken I usually skip the part of the menu that has chicken.

I tried the chicken fried steak at a Texas  Roadhouse Restaurant. No Bueno.
 
I tried one at Willie Nelson's restaurant but don't remember the name. He is Texan. Waaaay to much salt. Couldn't eat it. Friends wanted to go on another trip I had their. The regular steak was heavily salted too before it got to the table. Wonder if they are trying to sell more beer?
 
As someone who "eats out" for maybe 3% of my meals, restaurants across the board use way too much salt.

Especially soups.
 
Also, almost everything you buy in the grocery store that isn't fresh. Either full of salt or full of sugar. Small wonder there is so much high blood pressure, obesity, and diabetes. Food manufacturers and medical profession must be in cahoots, both get rich at our expense.

CHICKEN POT--CHICKEN POT-- CHICKEN POT PIE TONIGHT!!!
If you bought it at Walmart, it probably has 2000 mg of Salt.

[font=BogleWeb,]"Ingredients: [/font][font=BogleWeb,]FILLING: Water, Cooked Chicken Roll (Chicken Leg Meat, Ground Chicken, Water, Salt,"[/font]

Tonight, according to my new Almost-a-Keto diet, I cooked the following in my new ceramic fry pan:
- chicken breast (from frozen pack)
- broccoli
- snap peas 
- carrots
- tomato
- black pepper and garlic powder seasoning
- olive oil

Yummy. Plus (1) rice cake and 2 glasses of skim milk.

My doctor would faint, after I just told him last week about my year of too much pizza.
 
Forgot, also had:
- chopped onion

I am experimenting with this sort of thing for van travel cooking. Most of the above would cook very fast over the Coleman stove, except for the onions which I can only eat if very well cooked, otherwise heartburn for 2 days. In today's case, I nuked the frozen chicken breast in the microwave for 5-minutes first, but I have canned chicken breast for the road.
 
Simple meal I like. Chop up cabbage Add some sesame oil conservatively to some olive oil a tad of garlic, some chicken breast chopped and stir fried in a pan. You can add anything else you like as well. Quick and Easy.
 
I used my single burner induction stove today. Heated cold water from the fridge (20 ounce ) to a boil in less than 60 seconds. Pretty amazing. Did a trial coffee brew for the road.

Do you know how many Amps it draws?
I didn't monitor the amp draw. You can select either Temperature or wattage to cook with. Gives a digital readout of your selection. I had it cranked up to 1700 watts. If I had to guess it was probably drawing around 6-8 amps.
 
I have the Euro Kitchen induction from Amazon. there so many on there That I just Placed my hand over my eyes and picked one.
 
1700W/12V = 142 Amps, more or less. Or 28/ea 60W bulbs.
