Stuffed Calamari Recipe

Here's a recipe for one of our favorite Feast of the Seven Fishes dishes. It's for stuffed calamari, which recommend serving in Tomato Sauce.

You Will Need:  2-4 pound of calamari (squid), bread crumbs, salt, pepper, fresh grated Parmesan and/or romano cheese, eggs, garlic, basil, water, milk, chopped up portions of the various seafood will be serving (including the squid themselves.)

How You Do It:

1. Remove the tentacles from the calamari, leaving only the body cavity
2. Prepare the tomato sauce and allow it to simmer while preparing the stuffing
3. The Stuffing - In a large bowl, combine two 15 oz. cans of bread crumbs (or four cups fresh bread crumbs), one head of minced garlic, cup of milk, and an egg. Add cheese to preference and copious amounts of the remaining chopped fish and squid. Mix by hand until you get a thick moist mixture, add more milk if necessary.
4. Now, take the stuffing and fill each calamari tube (tight but not too tight) and place in an olive oiled casserole dish. Lay the stuffed calamari in rows and feel free to layer.
5. Drizzle the stuffed calamari with olive oil and cheese, then poor your sauce over top the entire dish.
6. Cover with foil and a lid and place in an oven thats been pre-heated to 450 degrees for about an hour.

   

Buon Appetito!

A BIG E-mail Mistake
An Illinois man left the snowballed streets of Chicago for a vacation in Florida. http://www.dunk2u.com Nike Dunk shoes His wife was on a business trip and was planning to meet him there the next day. When he http://www.Jordansport2.com/ Jordan sneaker reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a quick e-mail.

Unable to find the scrap of paper on which he had written her e-mail address,

he did his best to type it in from memory. Unfortunately, he missed one letter, and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher's wife whose husband had passed away only the day before. When the grieving widow checked her e-mail, she took one look at the monitor, let out a piercing scream, and fell to the floor dead.

At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note on the screen:

Dearest Wife,

Just got checked in. Everything prepared for your arrival tomorrow.

Your Loving Husband.
