    1 cup fat free sour cream

Easily the long lost half-sister meal to the prison food I made on Saturday. The consistency was weird. The mushrooms were completely unnecessary and added a strange flavor. Everything else was bland. Though I'm very sure if I had left out the mushrooms and added corn and some seasoning, this could have been a lot less gross. With time, I'll come to understand seasonings more so I'll know what I can add if something is tasting a little off. I don't blame the original source for this recipe. I blame my ignorance about seasoning. I did add my Tony Chachere's and it made it alright enough to get it down, but I wouldn't call this a "good" dish.

  1. cream of mushroom is kind of gross if it's not hidden in a recipe or overpowered by something else. I wonder if a little worchestershire (sp?!) or soy sauce would have helped...

  2. I think worchestershire sauce definitely would have helped it. I'll have to stock up on some, but I won't make this dish again. :) My friend in Jr High used to put worchestershire sauce in her Ramen! Don't think I'd try that either.
