Toaster oven poutine

1/2 bag of frozen fries
1/2 cup of cheese curds
1/2 cup chopped smoked meat
3/4 cup beef gravy (hot) canned
pinch of salt& pepper
Bake fries on a non stick sheet till crisp/cooked. Place smoked meat in micro. on high for 1 min.
Place cooked fries in an oven proof bowl, add cheese curd on top, then the gravy...add the smoked meat and heat in the oven for 3-4 min. to melt the curds. Transfer to a plate and dig in!!!
Hope you enjoy this delightful Canadian Dish. Alf

Well, he did start with Frozen fries, so I guess canned (translated: synthetic-artificial-vinyl) gravy is OK.

There's curds and there's whey. Never had 'squeaky cheese'?

I don't think I have ever had canned gravy.

Cheese curds are sometimes referred to as 'squeaky cheese', as it squeaks a bit as you chew it, kinda like that 'squeaky clean' sound.

The cheese curds we get and eat, are cheddar.
Quote:
Curds are white or orange Cheddar in its infancy, before pressing and aging. Small, irregularly-shaped morsels, with a soft, elastic texture, Curds are mild and milky in flavour. Best enjoyed as a snack, Curds are a quick and convenient addition to lunch boxes. Springbank's white curds are smaller cut and intended specifically for poutine.

Not if I was starving on a desert island and it was the only thing Domino's would deliver! Now chili dogs, that's another story!

We were heading back to the car after dinner at a Korean BBQ that shared the strip mall with a Dominos Pizza.
Pizza delivery guy was heading for his car and dropped the pizza, which ended up face down, in the parking lot. He put it back in the box, picked off some gravel, closed the lid and got into his car.
I still don't want poutine.

Finally, a picture so I can visualize this poutine. It reminds me of that thing KFC was selling years ago (and maybe still do)...a mixture of mashed potatoes, gravy, corn and who-knows-what-else all in one bowl...

Ugh! I was the only customer at a hamburger place waiting for my order. I heard the guy in the back say, "pick it up and use it anyway...". I left!

Speaking of recipes, The Vancouver Sun had a columnist who shared cooking and cleaning tips with readers.
For camping, she recommended placing a tough steak under the vehicle tire and driving over it.
I gave the idea a go, carefully wrapping a steak in plastic, foil and paper and drove over it in my '70s Cherokee Chief. After picking the gravel out of it, we threw it on the BBQ and it was OK.
Next morning, very early, we were awoken by the sounds of heavy equipment. A backhoe was outside our cabin, digging up the malfunctioning septic field, which was where I had tenderized my steak.

Hi: All... This recipe is an adaption of the "Fries 'n gravy" we used to have in high school. All quantities are... more or less and the smoked meat could be seasoned as you like it. I tried to get it quick and easy for a travel trailer galley.
I'll post some other dishes that I think would be easy to do while camping/travelling. Alf

Great idea!!! Now who was it who first made mention of Poutine? I vote they must bring it, even if not registered.

That would be Greggo! And I'm pretty sure he took a shower after his Poutine post!

It probably was Greggo (in the shower thread):
