What's For Dinner Tonight??

Those sound really interesting, but I'm guessing he adapted it from a recipe for lamb, no?

 

All this talk of food is making me hungry!

 

It just made me giggle that the instructions said to cook the lamb after seasoning the salmon. I do salmon fairly often, I'll have to tweak that a little and try it. Thanks for sharing!

Tonight I lost my mind and used the oven even though it was 90F with 75% humidity. But it was amazing! The salad came entirely from my back porch garden, as did the fresh herbs for the spaghetti sauce. Parmesan chicken bundles, frozen cauliflower with cheese sauce, and salad.

Watermelon That's it!

 

Dinner last night: Macaroni and Cheese, with kielbasa. We will definitely try this one again.

A favorite combo for us but I cook them separate.

Tonight dinner is going to be Grilled Chicken Breast, Corn On The Cobb, Black Eyed Peas, and Sliced Tomatoes.

 

I am definitely going to be using that salmon recipe. Not tonight though, tonight is beef night

 

Tonight I'm making meat loaf with tomato sauce; it is quite good.

 

I've got a mixed vegetable (cucumber, chickpea, red, yellow, and orange bell pepper, carrot, Vidalia onion) and fresh herb (parsley and mint) salad in the refrigerator, and later I'm making a crustless quiche (bacon, zucchini, yellow squash, basil, tarragon, parsley, chives, oregano, thyme). All using herbs I grabbed from the porch this morning.

 

Mimsy, it looks só appetising.
Another sausage to try with Mac 'n Cheese is Chorizo.

I'm a big fan and advocate of Chorizo. Especially when cubed and combined with eggs and potatoes, and served in the form of a breakfast burrito.

 

Have a whole pork tenderloin rubbed with seasonings and going to cook it real slow at 225 degrees all day.

 

I made Seafood Paella that i found on this site, It's so good! I think i'll be making it again next week.

 

Both the paella and the shrimp-chorizo rice pot look delicious!

Saved them to the growing collection of recipes "for later"

 

Chicken salad and a large diet Pepsi

 

Early dinner as I head to work.

For dessert, after dinner, I'm eating chocolate truffles I made following this recipe. Muuuch, much better than the name makes them sound...!

Things you should be aware of if you want to try them out:

1. One 12 oz box of Medjool dates bought at my local co-op became roughly 2 cups once the dates were taken apart and the pits removed. It is logical to assume that a 12 oz box of Medjool dates bought from another store would yield the same amount.
2. You'll need to re-oil your hands a few times during the rolling-and-shaping phase.I left the coconut oil out and just used that. Built-in skin treatment!
3. These truffles are very sweet. Next time, I will use unsweetened bitter chocolate instead of semi-sweet.
4. The over-sweetness is very easily dismissed if you pair the truffles with coffee or a good red wine.

 

Is that like 2 minute noodles?

 

I believe they will from now on be called Brexit noodles...

 

Does it count as dinner if I'm eating pizza rolls out of the microwave at 2:20am? Because this is my life the way work is going.

 

Fresh corn on the cob, green baby lima beans, ham, and for dessert cantaloupe slices.

 

I wasn't at work so I could cook!! Spiralized zucchini and summer squash sauteed with lemon and fresh herbs, lemon and garlic green beans, and coleslaw.

 

Chicken Salad on Romaine Lettuce and Fresh Cantaloupe, Honey Dew, Grapes, and Strawberries.

 

Meaty pork ribs , boiled cabbage , cole slaw , mashed potatoes and gravy. Hmmm good.

dessert - paisano red

later - fireworks

 

Tacos and iced tea. large serving of coffee in a short while.

 

Dinner and beer tasting at Graydon's Crossing. We split an order of nachos, then dove into the daily specials. He had their shrimp po' dip (cross between a po'boy and a French dip), I had their pork wings (BBQ short ribs done like lamb chops, side of excellent collard greens). I had a date.
