Can you not get them in London?  I see them all the time in different shops around here.

I haven't seen them but haven't looked either. The ones I really miss are the big hard ones.

Those are my favorite too. There was another brand of hard pretzels I could get in Dublin, but they were definitely not as good.

I haven't hunted them in the shops, but my favourite pub in Holmbury St. Mary has them & they go perfectly with a Curious Brew....might need to head down there soon ;)

Dunno the name of it, but chicken and cashews in a sauce of sriracha sauce, honey, brown sugar, garlic and ginger, simmered until slightly caramelized. For a side we did peppered red potatoes, onions and mushrooms.

Tonight it was taco chili topped with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of cheddar. We had tortilla chips (um.. crisps) on the side for dipping into it.

Just like regular chili, it is one of those recipes you can play around with, so I do variations from time to time.

What's the difference between your taco chilli and regular chilli?

Taco seasoning and a packet of ranch dressing mix instead of chili powder and/or a chili packet. It also calls for mince, diced tomatoes with green chilies and a tin of diced tomatoes, onion, either whole kernel corn or hominy, and either kidney, chili, or black beans.

We top it with sour cream and shredded cheddar, and scoop it with tortilla crisps. It is one of those recipes you can adapt and play with, but each different way I have tried it, it has been great.

Tonight we are having a chicken taco quiche. We seem to be in a taco themed rut this week.

This sounds like it could be tasty!
