    While reading an outdoors book, i read a reference to old Forest
    Service Lookout cookbooks. Below is a link to online versions. They mention
    that a regular diet of quick bread (such as biscuits, pancakes, etc.)
    is not wholesome, and that sourdough is healthier.

    Interesting idea, might look into that a bit more. Somewhere around in this house we've got a Forest Service Lookout cookbook--put out for
    their 50th anniversary. I'll find it (eventually) and see what it says about sourdough. Right now we've got to get rid of this crud and get
    ready for the mission trip to VT, with a stop in western NY beforehand.

    I snagged those yesterday. If you'd like I can e-mail attach them to you. They're in PDF or .DOC format.

    I'll take a pass for right now. Trying to get back to healthy and reset for another trip is taking a lot of energy from both Steve and me.
    Cooking has been minimal, even less on my part. Last night Steve had a radio club meeting at a local restaurant so he got supper there. We'd
    gone out for a few basic groceries at Wegman's so I picked up a package
    of pork pot stickers for my supper. Tonight we'll probably open a can
    of soup. I've got one more heavy duty antibiotic to finish the 10 day cycle, hopefully we'll be back to (or at least close to) normal by the
    end of the week.

    If you're on the road and don't want to cook right then I can recommend
    Arby's pecan chicken salad sandwich. I bought one a few days ago and was
    quite favourably impressed. First off, it's huuuuuge. One of them would probably make a meal for both you and Steve. Served on wheat breadm not
    a bun. And they put a plastic knife in the bag to make divvying up much
    easier. I had one for lunch yesterday and skipped supper. I'm hoping
    that they'll make it a reguler item on their menu. But, it's probably
    going to be seasonal like McDonald's bratwurst or McRib.

    So, I went out and found this copycat recipe which I *will* use.

    Title: Arby's Grilled Chicken & Pecan Salad
    Categories: Poultry, Fruits, Nuts, Citrus
    Yield: 4 servings

    1 c Diced red apple
    1 tb Lemon juice
    2 1/2 c Grilled chicken breast;
    - diced 1/4"
    1 c Halved grapes
    1/2 c Chopped celery
    1 c Chopped pecans
    1/2 c (to 3/4 c) mayonnaise
    Salt & pepper
    Lettuce leaves; opt
    Thick-sliced wheat bread;
    - opt

    Place the diced apples in a medium-sized bowl. Add one
    tablespoon of lemon juice and stir to coat the apples to
    prevent them from turning brown.

    Add the chicken, grapes, celery, and pecans to the bowl
    and mix well.

    Add 1/2 cup mayonnaise and stir to combine. If the
    mixture is too dry you can add another 1/4 cup of
    mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    Allow the flavors to marry in a covered bowl in the
    refrigerator for about 1 hour before serving.

    If you would like to serve the chicken salad as a
    sandwich, place about 1 cup of chicken salad and a few
    lettuce leaves between two thick slices of wheat bread.

    NOTES: While Arby's does not toast their pecans, you
    could easily bring this salad to the next level by
    toasting the pecans in a skillet on medium-high heat
    until fragrant. Allow the pecans to cool completely
    before adding them to the salad.
