Oh, Turkish Delight, I'm a-drooling!!!
My husband is Ukrainian, but is from Serbia - and he once in a while makes burek with phyllo and cottage cheese. I looked it up on Wiki and it seems different E. European countries have varied version of it - interesting!
Hm, he hasn't made it in a while..... maybe I can get him to soon...

Shepherd's Pie tonight.

Bottom layer is hamburger, chicken chunks, frozen mixed veggies, tomato soup, a squeeze of ketchup and Worcestershire.

Middle layer is a can of cream corn, and cheese slices.

Top layer is mashed potatoes with a bit of butter, sour cream, and basil mixed in. And a bit of Paprika sprinkled on top looks really pretty.

I love comfort food!

Tonight I'm having whole wheat pita grill, with melt cheese and hummus.

Pan fried sole with rice and peas. I dont like fish though. I just eat it cause it's good for me so I can set a good example for my kiddies

Does any one eat Salata De Boeuf?

[Purdee]

Hmmm, Fringe (the show) premier is on tonight, my hubby and I will be catching it early on the shifting channel at 7pm. So we're planning to go to Pizza Hut a few blocks away for dinner. He wanted delivery but I have a coupon that I got from purchasing the SPC card. Yay so Pizza Hut for us.

Friday: appetizer - Vietnamese Spring rolls then Vietnamese Pho (beef noodle soup) - my lazy version ofcourse. My caucasian US citizen love these dishes.

I think those two dishes are cousins, Salade Olivier is the Russian version.

That is being an AWESOME Mom! The only food I couldn't stomach was chicken livers - they smell heavenly while cooking, but I just couldn't handle the texture or taste. Same as when my mom made liver when I was younger.
But with my son, I would put something else on my dish so he wouldn't notice, or I'd be the one to have leftovers, etc. He didn't know I wasn't eating it til he was a teen!

It is the same dish. My husband family calls it French Salad, not its name. I will be telling my husband when he gets up his family has "bastazied" another name. But I still found it. My MIL will be ticked to hear that I found it, since she would not share the recipes. It is so yummie. Salata de boeuf is the romania name. My husband is a Hun and they changed they name of Romania things to suit them.

It is too muggy tothink about supper. I have meetings all night so I will give hubby leftover 7 grain stew and sliced bread with garlic baked into it and I might eat when I get home later on tonight.

That's cool, YesI'mCheap - funny how the changes of names do happen between neighbouring cultures and families, too.
There are even Ukrainian differences between my husband and me - just different words used growing up. We even call 'teatowels' by different names, lol! I'll say "Please get me a pilka" - he says we don't have one, but here's a 'stirka'...
Or even here in Saskatoon - some people go with pyrohy, others with varenyky. We have only ever used pyrohy, but that really means baked ones - so the term we really should be using is varenyky.
