Kidney Beany Linguini

John says - Why are there kidney beans in the spaghetti?
Suzan says - It's a new recipe I found - Kidney Beany Linguini  ( I think very quickly let me tell you ) 
John says - Think I'll just make a sandwich Suzan
Suzan says - Oh will you just try it already?  I can never try any new recipes because you're so picky - and I found this and have been dying to try it - just give it a chance
John says - mmmm, not bad at all
Suzan says - You see?

I WILL NOT TELL HIM THAT I'M GOING AS BLIND AS A BAT - AND THOUGHT I TOOK OUT THE SPAGHETTI SAUCE FROM THE FREEZER LAST NIGHT.
AND I MOST CERTAINLY WILL NOT TELL HIM I TOOK OUT THE CHILE SAUCE BY ACCIDENT - BECAUSE HE REFUSES TO TRY CHILE 

and actually my Kidney Beany Linguini was amazingly delish!
you must try this next time you take the chile out by accident

and I kept a straight face throughout the entire meal - he has no idea....................

  1. I take it John doesn't read your blog :) looks good to me. Here in the states we call that Cincinnati chili, google it....it's really good.

  2. That isn't quite Cincinnati Chili, as that is a very specific type from the restaurant chains Skyline and Gold Star. (You can buy it canned at Kroger stores and online or packets online.)
    But! The do but it on spaghetti with onions, mild cheddar, kidney beans, and oyster crackers.
    Gotta defend my Ohio traditions. ;)

    My husband makes a flatlander chili that is also yummy on spaghetti! That's the only way we do it at our house.

  7. Hello there! Me Again! After going to my Dashboard, there is no "edit file" anywhere! I can't find anything that says change email settings. I've had numerous people tell me this and I'm just not getting it, I guess! So frustrating! Maybe I'll send google an email . I know that Blogger has changed some stuff recently - maybe before I started my blog but after you started yours.

  8. lmao, No matter how bad my day is going Suzan you always manage to make it a little brighter and bring a smile to my face with your funny John and Suzan conversations.
    I would like to share a story about grabbing the wrong thing out of the freezer. one day my ex took out something foil wrapped in the freezer thinking it was hamburger meat for spaghetti sauce. he was all proud of himself until I told him he has just thawed out our dead budgie Hogan. The kids had him in the freezer keeping him frozen till spring so they could give him a proper burial in the spring. We had pizza that night and he left the meat thawing to me after that.
    At least yours was edible lol
    hugs

  9. That whole dialog cracked me up, Suzan. My husband is very suspicious about food, although it seems to be focused on a name. He'll say "What is that?"in a dubious tone. If I reply "It's a pasta salad with chicken and walnuts, gorgonzola and peas" which is perfectly true he will almost always respond "But what's it CALLED?" and is deeply disgusted when I say there is no name, it's something made up of ingredients on hand. Maybe we should cook for each other and send the husbands out to get generic pizza together.

  10. ROTFL!!!

    Good idea, making up a name for invented recipes, it "sells" them better!

  11. Oh my word you CRACK ME UPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!

  12. Oh Susan You crack me up too. Good thing you don't keep deceased birds in your freezer too. What will you call that stew??? Makes me think of fried green tomatoes, yuck(the movie).After reading the comments,
    I thought we were the only cooks that put our cat in the downstairs freezer so we could bury him in the spring. Can't believe I just put that out there!!!! OK, single Mom..kids crying..couldn't afford the vet's bill to "take him to heaven" Spring thaw couldn't come fast enough. Love the union jack camouflage Ikea table.
