Hello, Dale.

I don't carry FN_SYSOP nor FIDONEWS.  I had my fill of particular people many
years ago so I just stay away.

I do carry FIDO-REQ but that's it.  MIN_GENAN, my network's "general
announcements" (robot postings) echo is second on my system, then FIDO-REQ.

Yeah, that makes sense.  However, out of the three, I only count COOKING
because of its very low signal-to-noise ratio.  It's one of the reasons why I
really enjoy this echo: even though I may not contribute much to the ongoing
conversation, many interesting subjects are approached here that I enjoy.  I
also enjoy Mr. Loo's travelogues. :)

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

      Title: Rob Weller's Healthy Chicken Fajitas
 Categories: Ceideburg, Tex-mex, Beans, Chicken
      Yield: 4 Servings

MMMMM----------------------CHICKEN FILLING---------------------------
      1 lg Plump chicken breast
    1/2 c  Celery (tops and tender,
           -inside stalks)
    1/2 md White onion
      2    Or 3 peppercorns
      2 tb Olive oil
      1    Red pepper
      1    Yellow pepper
  1 1/2 lg Red onions
    1/2 c  Chopped cilantro leaves
           Salt to taste
           Pepper to taste

MMMMM------------------------BEAN FILLING-----------------------------
      1 lb Bag of pinto beans (red or
           -pink)
      8 c  Water
           Salt to taste
    1/4    Onion
    1/4 c  Olive oil

  Poach chicken with celery tops, onions and peppercorns.  Cook for
  about 15 minutes.  Let cool and remove skin.  When chicken is
  skinned, slice or shred, then saute with olive oil in wok or large
  skillet until barely browned around the edges.  Next add red and
  yellow peppers and red onions. Toss and saute for about 10 minutes.
  Watch closely so that peppers don't go limp.  Add cilantro leaves.
  Remove from heat. Add salt and pepper to taste. Combine with beans
  (see below). Place in tortillas, top with salsa and serve.

  Cook beans in water for approximately 1 1/2 hours on medium heat.

  Make sure that beans are completely covered in water.  Stir
  occasionally. Beans will absorb liquid and become soft.  Add more
  water if needed. Add salt when beans are thoroughly cooked.  Remove
  from heat. Add chopped onion.  (Onions will cook from the heat of the
  beans.) Drizzle with olive oil.  Let sit.

  TORTILLAS: Warm six large flour tortillas in microwave on high (in
  large zip lock bag to preserve moisture) for about 30 seconds.

  SALSA: Two large, peeled and chopped tomatoes.

  Serves 4.
