MsM, I sure hope your family appreciates those gorgeous plates you serve them every night. If not, they need some head thumpin.

I'm doing some sour creamed fried cabbage and Knockwurst, with boiled parsley buttered spuds. Thinking of my German Dad tonight as I listen to this. He sang it so beautifully.

Thank you Kayelle.

Beautiful song.

Glad to see you're thinking clearly enough to see my point.

I'd like to take credit, but Princess Fiona PMed me.

I'm going to stick with soup tonight. Either another round of Ramen and smoked sausage (it really hit the spot) or cream of chicken with stewed tomatoes blended in the blender and heated up.

BTW, did you know you don't really have to make the Ramen in stages like the directions say (boil water, add noodles, bring back to boil, boil 3 minutes, add packet, wait a minute).

Put it in the pot all together at once. I set my heat on medium, I set my timer for 10 minutes.

I got my stuffed lamb burger fix in. Along with the portobello pasta. I was going to serve the broccoli on the side, but I figured what the heck, why dirty another pot

Thank you. Thats the juices from the cutting tray. I don't like sweet ham. My store had smoked ham shank on sale .99 lb. This one weighed 11 lb.

I don't like sweet ham either. Didn't even like it when I was a kid.

What do you stuff the lamb burgers with?

 

[taxlady]

We had cottage pie (sheppard's pie, substituting ground beef for the lamb) and salad with garlic dressing of doom. I'm full, but it was sooo good that I keep going back for just a little bit more

 

[Alix]

We had taco salad. We're going to eat light most of the week leading up to the "feast".

Got nuts and bolts in the oven right now so dinner had to be something on the stovetop!

Yes, please do tell the dense old ladies. My only excuse is that I have had four glasses of wine.

We had leftover ham, mashed potatoes and I pulled some sweet corn out of the freezer to go with it. I have soooooo much ham! I'm a bit scared lol

To me this is the time of year for easy, comfort food. If we aren't feeding a crowd, we're contributing to a dinner. Today was poached eggs on English muffins; I still have turkey broth from Thanksgiving, and I can put ll matter of stuff in it for simple suppers.

Suggestion: traditional Quebec ham stew. One large piece of ham, preferably with the bone, some potatoes, onions, carrots, other root veg, and some stock. Add some cabbage near the end of the cooking. The first day it makes a yummy soup, then you cook it some more and it thickens up to a stew.

BTW, it's not really called ham stew, but I don't remember the real name. It's usually only served in the small towns out in rural Quebec.

I had the thread date wrong. So, his comment was that time had stopped in NOLA (New Orleans, LA), but I already knew I goofed because the Princess had sent me a PM and corrected the thread title.
