I made roast beef with mashed potatoes, carrots, and yorkshire pudding. Tonight will be some good ole sinus clearing veggie curry.
I decided to shake things up and cook out of order!!!!
Tonight is chicken and mushrooms in a white wine and garlic cream sauce with brown basmati rice and salad :P
Tomorrow should be pot roast with root veggies and mashed taters :P
Oh yum yum yum. I wanna come to your house for pot roast n' spuds!!!
Tonight we had mexican bean salad, spicy pork tenderloin, and orange glazed baby carrots. An explosion of flavours!
Tomorrow? heck. I don't even have breakfast for tomorrow planned, let alone supper! :tongue:
Last night I made lazy cabbage rolls casserole, with pickled beets.
Made a good ol' pot of stew last night...used lots of veggies that are from our garden. Now that it is getting cooler, I feel like cooking comfort foods.
Had edo japan last night :)
Just put a roast in the crockpot with a bunch of carrots and potato's so all I have to do is make gravy when I wake up and enjoy a delicious dinner.
Tonight is stuffed peppers (insides include rice, beef and other things for the husband. Tofu, rice and veggies for the vegetarian 6 year old. Chicken and veggies for the 3 year old that can't eat anything good due to allergies). Maybe a salad with it...I'm not sure I feel that motivated today.
We are having pork chops, roast potatoes & green beans.
Homemade tomato/veg soup
Shepherdess pie and brocoli
Leftover pear and apple crumble
Great thing is....enough soup and Pie for tomorrow too:excited::excited:
Just got to decide on a dessert and more veg:cheesygrin:
tonight was a pork roast dinner cooked by hubby......delicious
Takeout last night from our fave place at the mall - had chicken fingers, steak fries, and gravy.
homemade vegetarian lasagna, garlic bread with cheese and salad.
and tonight was BBQ ribs, fries and gravy
stuffed zuchini
Was brave yesterday and cooked with a new veggie - bok choy! (had only had it in bought Chinese food before) I googled recipes for bok choy + ground pork, and a stirfry recipe came up, and wow, it was good!
Mind you, it said cut the bok choy in half lengthwise and wash well - but I had no idea how to cut it up, so just used my best judgement.
Also the first time marinating ground meat, and it really made a difference.
Served with rice noodles (they freaked my husband out a bit, but he ate them.)
So the big thing of bok choy was only 86 cents, and I have half of it left, so will have to find something to make with it over the next few days.
Tonight is Highliner English fish and chips, with a salad.
Oh, that's a good idea, dawn! Thx!
I like all those things that are nice but kinda cheap to use. Cabbage,bok choy,etc. I like to use caned tomatoes with it.
Sometimes when I make Ichiban noodles, I'll add bok choy and cubed tofu to it - add the white part first and then the greens when you have a minute or so left to cook.
I actually prefer baby bok choy, there's less of the white stalk. Another thing, you need to be really good about cleaning it, unless you like crunching on grit.
mmm I love bok choy. I really like putting baby bok choy in a wok or frying pan with some garlic, ginger, a drizzle of soy sauce and a touch of honey. Add some hot sauce if you want some kick. Delicious.
I'm so mad at myself last night for dinner we had Mc Donalds (I've been trying not to eat out) Tonight we're having breakfast (bacon, eggs, hash browns & toast) :)
I agree 100% guys! My newest favourite one is Gai Lan ( Chinese broccoli ) because after I wash it thoroughly I use all of it. Stems and leaves, no waste! In soup it's fab, stir fry no problem , I even served it steamed as a veg and they all liked the taste.
Jim is cooking up some bacon . . . ohthedelicioussmell!
I bought a basket of field tomatoes, ripe for a toasted BLT, methinks, for lunch.
= = = = = =
We're back from our three-day stay at Harmer's cottages on the St. Lawrence River. Jim caught a little perch, but nothing big enough for the fry pan -- so we dined on President's Choice No Name lasagne, and a green mixed salad with a cool glass of beer. We had a wonderful time boating, trolling, and I got some watercolor painting in. ^_^
Pork rib on my big Green egg!
Prepare your cooker for indirect grilling at 275 degrees Fahrenheit, using cherry and apple wood for flavor. Season the ribs with the rub. Put the ribs into the rib rack indirect heat 3 hours!
Take a double-thick piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil (big enough to wrap a slab of ribs), and slather about 1/3 cup of honey on each sheet, spreading it where the ribs will lie and brown sugar. Place the ribs meaty side down and add more honey and brown sugar on top of the slab. Now crimp the edges of the foil and pour 1/2 cup of apple juice in the bottom. Do this for all three slabs. Loosely close the packets around the ribs and lay them back in the cooker.
Cook another 90 minutes. Carefully unwrap the packets and take out the ribs. Place the ribs back on the cooker, raising the temperature to 350 degrees. Brush with the glaze or barbecue sauce and flip several times for another 20 minutes.
