Dinner Monday 12/2

[pacanis]

After all that seafood yesterday I need some red meat and substance, so it's grilled steak and potatoes and garlic bread. Not sure of the greenage yet. Maybe I'll pick up some asparagus. I think it's on sale this week. I haven't been out in days...

And you?

 

[Andy M.]

Red meat and stick shaped veggie for us too. Burgers on the grill and asparagus.

 

[pacanis]

I think you changed my mind, Andy. I think I'll have burgers now instead. I'll pick up some salami while I'm at the store getting the buns and beef.

 

[jabbur]

Spaghetti with salads.

 

[salt and pepper]

Canned venison(taste like pot roast),pasta salad.

 

[Aunt Bea]

Pork chops and a salad!

 

[CraigC]

Shrimp stuffed with crab imperial. Have to use up the other half of the jumbo lump from last night.

 

[Dawgluver]

Nachos, and Cheerios for dessert.

 

[Katie H]

Pork loin roast rolled in kosher salt and herbes de provence, steamed spinach, sauteed onions, iced tea, and the last of the Thanksgiving pumpkin pie for dessert.

 

[Whiskadoodle]

I warmed a bowl of turkey vegetable soup. Added some grated ginger to the bowl while it cooled. Now that is tasty.

 

[Alix]

Spaghetti and salad here too. Lots of shovelling tonight.

Oh yeah, that looks good. Did you can the venison yourself?

 

[taxlady]

We had http://www.discusscooking.com/forums/f56/easy-leek-and-potato-soup-83348.html#post1219350 and grilled cheese sandwiches. There was salsa and onion on the grilled cheese sandwiches. Used the new FP to slice the leeks - really quick. Great meal on a cold, snowy evening.

 

[Zhizara]

Cleaned up leftovers making room for shopping spree tomorrow.

 

[Cooking Goddess]

Spaghetti with salads.

Spaghetti and salad here too. Lots of shovelling tonight.

Great Minds and all that jazz! We had pasta (used rotini to be different) and the last of the homemade sauce from the freezer. Nice big salads to discourage too much pasta eating. Didn't work.

 

[LPBeier]

We had turkey breast roast with gravy, potatoes and salad.

I am hungry now so will heat up some chow mien from yesterday.

 

[salt and pepper]

Oh yeah, that looks good. Did you can the venison yourself?

Yes I did, and also, jerkey, sausage, bologna too.

 

[Roll_Bones]

I soaked a bag of 15 bean soup overnight. Drained them this morning. I have two (2) smoked turkey legs.
I am still trying to decide how to do this.

Should I make a sofrito and add it near the end, or put my aromatics in with the beans and turkey legs at the start? I am using chicken stock instead of water.

I plan to pull the legs after they get soft and return the bones until the beans are done. Then return the turkey meat.

TIA...........John

Start with the aromatics. Add the beans, stock, seasonings and simmer.

Sounds like a plan Andy. To start with a saute of the aromatics should be a great way to develop flavor.
Thanks.
