DH's back is still barking so I made up his famous Beef Barley soup. He said I did o.k. tastes the way he likes it.
Swimming Rama and rice.
Finally got brave enough to try out our new air fryer. It arrived April 27th but with my medical
distractions it sat there. A learning curve for me, the digital control panel intimidated me.

Used the Rotisserie Spit to cook 2 separate pork loin roasts ( they were both pretty slender pieces) .
Chose 350 degrees for 50 min each time and they turned out decent! I think the dry herbs I coated
them with made all the difference in the flavour.
Not sure if it will be for dinner, but made up a crazy salad with diced tomatoes, red pepper, red onion, baby cucumbers, flat leaf parsley,
black Kalamata olives and 3/4 can light tuna ( I must surrender 1/4 of it to my felines. They stare me down until I give them some...lol.)
I sprinkled in dry herbs ( basil, dill, everything bagel seasoning and ground black pepper ) The dressing was a mixture of extra light EVOO,
light balsamic vinegar, Djon mustard, and a tiny bit of white sugar. It's chilling now.....we'll see who likes it.
Sounds good minus the olives and tuna :)Quote:

loin chops DH is baking. I'll let him mash the spuds, it'll save my wrist. lol.
I made a mango salad using 6 of the mangoes we bought from NF ( case was $6.99 ) they were perfectly sweet.
Picked fresh mint from the front yard to go in it, added the leftover lemon juice I had squeezed to make the curd
and sprinkled in bits of crushed chili peppers. The heat makes it.
Dinner will be whenever he cooks those chops!
Tonight will be burgers/burger bowl for me. Because it is easy and we have lean beef in the fridge.
I just went out and bought fresh romaine and buns.
Last night was a “chickun” stir fry with Swap “chicken” in my new pan, actually a braiser.

OMG!!! @harbie I was wondering which gorgeous pan you had purchased.
Nice choice. She's a beaut! The meal looks delicious!
I was busy this morning so that dinner will be easy to get on the table. Made a potato/egg salad, a tomato/cucumber one
and filled 3 large mushroom caps with a yummy mixture. It consisted of diced cooked shrimp and sea legs, cream cheese,
red and green onion, minced garlic, Grated Parmesan, mayo, butter, crushed Grissol Baguettes, fresh thyme and mint leaves
and breadcrumbs.
I'll broil these later along with spreading the extra mixture onto the larger discs of the Baguettes. The main event will be BURGERS!
I am " meh " about that but the guys LOVE their burgers. I sauteed up mushrooms and onion for toppings and placed slices of tomato
on a saucer. We're all set!
I worked this morning and visited the reles this aft so as a treat I ordered in Indian food-yum.
Thanks @walkonby I had to get the Flame colour to remind me of the ones my had in the 70’s/80’s.
This morning I made " Marry Me Chicken " but I always add things. I wanted extra thin sliced veggies in there.
Turned out so creamy! Mmmm. Added all thin slices of carrots, celery, green pepper, red onion and shallots, then
chopped up the remaining fresh flat leaf parsley and mint leaves.

After we get back from the movie we might eat
some, although the popcorn might have us too full. Got to have my popcorn! ha ha
Looks yummy!Quote:
