Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

"The Gagne T-shirt jersey comes with a complimentary can of gasoline and a set of matches."
1 pound assorted wild mushrooms, such as cremini, hedgehog, shiitake, or oyster
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup minced shallots(about 2 large)
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1/4 cup Homemade Chicken Stock , or canned low-sodium chicken broth, skimmed of fat
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Potato Gnocchi
1. Bring a large pot of cold water to a boil. Remove stems from shiitake mushrooms, and trim stems of others. Cut all the mushrooms into 1/4-inch slices, and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add shallots, and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Raise heat to medium high, add mushrooms and thyme sprigs, and cook until mushrooms begin to brown on the edges, about 4 minutes. Remove thyme, add chicken stock, and reduce to 1 tablespoon, about 30 seconds. Add cream, salt, and pepper, cooking until cream thickens slightly, about 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Drop precooked gnocchi into the pot of boiling water, and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. (If gnocchi are prepared in advance but not yet cooked, boil them as described in Step 4 of the Potato Gnocchi recipe.) Lift gnocchi out of the water with a slotted spoon or skimmer, and transfer to the mushroom sauce, stirring until evenly coated; cook for about 1 to 2 minutes..and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese

I have one that's great while watching the game on TV!
Lavosh
If you can find them, get yourself some Lavosh brand crackers. However, simple Water table crackers will work well also, and tend to be smaller. Try to avoid crackers that have a lot of flavor already, like Ritz. You kinda want somethig a little bigger than those too.
Spread your crackers out on an oven-safe dish. Turn on the broiler. That's the heat from ABOVE guys, lol.
Cover these with the toppings of your choice. Some favorites;
Chopped black olives
Marinated artichoke hearts- cut into small pieces
Mushrooms!!!!
Chopped Green onion
Chopped pre-cooked chicken
Avoid anything sweet, but you get the idea. It's kinda like Pizza.
Cover this with grated Havarti cheese, there's one with dill in it if you like dill. (Very good!)
Place under the broiler until the cheese melts. Careful not to burn, that will ruin this!!
Remove from under broiler, and sprinkle with a LIGHT dusting of paprika.
1 cup of water
8oz mixed nuts
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter
1 tsp salt
2 cups dried fruit
4 large eggs
juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp baking powder
1 bottle Brandy
Method
Sample Brandy to check quality. Take a large mixing bowl. Check the Brandy again, to be sure it is of the highest quality. Pour one cup and drink. Repeat. Turn on the electric mixer; beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl. Add one tsp sugar and beat again. Make sure the Brandy is still okay. Cry another tup. Turn on the mixerer. Break two eggs and add to the bowl, chuck in the dried fruit. Mix on the turner. If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers, pry it loos with a drewscriver. Sample Brandy to check for tonsiscency. Next sift two cups of salt, or something, Who cares? Check the Brandy. Now sift the lemon juice and strain your nuts. Add one table. Spoon. Sugar or something. Whatever you can find. Grease the oven. Turn the cake tin to 350 degrees. Don’t forget to beat off the turnerer. Throw the bowl out of the window, check the Brandy again and go to bed.
Allright GUYS, here's one that's a sure-fire hit with the ladies! Whenever she's mad, or you want to make a big impression on a date or something, make her this.
They say the way to man's heart is thru his stomach. That works for ladies also!
Cape Hatteras Pasta
Ingredients;
1 lg. clove of Garlic
1 medium Carrot (Diced or julienned)
1 cup chopped Broccoli and Cauliflower (Broccoflower also works, and you dont need to buy two big heads of the other two for just a cup.)
1/2 cup Red Onion (Julienned)
1 Tomato (Cored, seeded, diced)
1/4 cup FRESH Basil (Julienned)
1 Tsp Black Pepper
1 Tbl. Olive Oil
3+ Tbl. Shredded Parmesean Cheese
3 cups cooked pasta (Really, you can use any pasta you like, Shells, Farfalle, etc. Linguini or Fettacini works excellent!)
1/4 cup Romana Sambuka - This is a licorice liqueur
1/4 cup Heavy Cream
Preperation;
Chop all the veggies, and have them each ready to go. Have all other ingredients standing by.
Begin with pasta, into the boiling water it goes.
As Pasta cooks, heat a large pan on the stove. Use a big one, everything including the pasta is going in! If you have one that's non-stick, use it. But it's gotta be big enough to hold everything.
Add Olive oil to the pan, heat on medium/high.
Add Garlic, and Onion- Saute for 1 minute, careful, dont burn the Garlic!
Add Broccoli, Cauliflower, and Carrot, and HALF of the tomato. Stir. Toss in the Pepper. Stir again, for about 2-3 minutes.
Add Basil, Sambuka, and Cream. Lower heat, and simmer 2-3 minutes.
By this time, the pasta should be ready, drain, and toss that in too!
Add the cheese, the rest of the tomato, and stir to combine well.
Serve!!!
This dish also can be enhanced greatly with the addition of Shellfish. Shrimp, Lobster, and especially Crab work very well.
Add precooked shellfish along with the pasta in the last step, and heat thru. If cold, add the shellfish right after the cream, before you toss in the pasta to make sure it gets heated thru.
Guys, trust me! This one works every time!! It's colorful, very tasty, and shows her you can make something beyond just Steaks & Burgers.
This recipe comes courtesy of the Tanqe Verde Ranch Resort, in Arizona.
1 medium Carrot (Diced or julienned)
1/2 cup Red Onion (Julienned)
1/4 cup FRESH Basil (Julienned)
Isn't that that old, haggard, hefty old bitty on tv?
