Okay. We have been all over the world and tasted some of the best food out there. From Military cooking, to off instillation eateries at home or abroad. We all have had some darn good grub.
What was your favorite? (I know I have a problem choosing just one)
What was your favorite recipe you ever learned?
One of my favorite was a small place in Turkey, out side the gate at Incerlik AB. It was a Italian place that served Lasagna in a stone bowl. I have no idea why I remember it (ate there in 1995). But if food can make you remember it for that long, means it was good.
Favorite recipe. A salsa recipe given to me when I was in Korea by another Airmen. I have altered it over time but still use it today.
3/4 cup Chopped Jalapinos (seeds removed)
3/4 cup Chopped Serrano peppers. (Seeds removed) (Pro tip..use a metal measuring spoon to remove seeds)
4 vine ripe tomatoes
about 4 Red Chili's.. If none I use a half of can of Chopped green chilis
2 Tbls of Garlic or 1 clove
One 1.25oz. package of Ortega Taco mix
1/2 cup of loosely cut Cilantro
Blend.
This is a sweet version with a little kick. IF you want a hotter version, you can leave the seeds in some of the peppers, or just use more peppers.
This is great alone, on sandwiches, or mixes well with cheese for some hot queso dip.
Enjoy

The absolute favorite food I've ever eaten had to be from Spain. The simplicity of just a Margarita Pizza and Sangria will forever stand out as the best.
The best restaurant has to be J. Alexander's in San Antonio in the Quarry Market. The problem of that restaurant is that you cannot decide which dish to order.
The best food I have prepared has to be a soul food dinner. Fried Catfish, Sweet Potatoes, spinach and Cabbage mix, ooweee gooey macaroni and cheese, and corn bread muffins
mmmm aren't you hungry.

Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Iwakuni, Japan. Once or twice a month at noon chow; the Chow Hall served their "most expensive" meal. "Cold Cuts" meats of many varieties to choose from. A make or build it yourself "Sub" sandwich with all the " trimmings or fixings". The Mess Sgt in charge told me it was the most expensive meal the Corps served. Strange; you would never believe that "cold cuts" were that expensive. Sgt M.B. USMC
