What's in the dish, Trish? 8/3/12

It's easy to confuse members of the Choux family. Especially Mark and his sister Patty.

And their cousin Fly Pie.

And their cousin Fly Pie.

As Pac stated earlier, I too wish I hadn't read Andy's post. Lobster roll and fried clams, sigh.

Ribeye steaks were awesome, BTW.

We had a light dinner tonight. Flat bread with chicken, goat cheese, and caramelized balsamic onions. We also had beet and spinach side salads.

I should probably figure out something to eat. I had a chicken wing and two pieces of rye crispbread, and 3 Margueritas. Hick.

We got another Costco rotisserie chicken. In this heat it is nice to have a hot meal you haven't cooked and I can use the rest of it for countless other things!

Today's sides were fresh from the farmer's market tomatoes and cucumbers, new potato salad and the very last of the broccoli salad.

Dessert will probably be local strawberries and ice cream!

Got home from the farm and had to start off-loading the produce...I picked 5 ears of corn (it is just starting) and ate three topped with the Swiss Chard pesto from yesterday. I didn't take pics of the corn on my plate, but I did take these pics:

very nice looking salad, cheryl, and nice ears, cws.

everyone else's dinner sounds great.

dw made kielbasi and kraut with baked spuds.

and now i'm thinking about what i want for my overnight dinner/breakfast. either a hot open turkey platter, a lumberjack platter (3 eggs, ham, bacon, sausage, home fries, and toast), or the irish breakfast platter (2 eggs, black and white puddings, home fries, a baked tomato, toast, and batchelor beans).

Thanks, BT. I'm somewhat addicted to fresh sweet corn...we planted a different bi-color variety this year. This is the earliest we've had corn. The cobs are a decent size and the kernel set is very nice. I pushed it a bit--the cobs probably could use another 3-4 days...we have 4 rows that are 100 ft long planted. We have two other varieties planted, but this one is very nice, and I'm sure the others will be nice as well.

We got home late after a day at the doctor's, pharmacy, and running errands, so frozen pizza for us. We can't eat the outside crust, but we can have all the toppings we want, so it works out.

A little of that as well...

I made one of my fave salads this afternoon - black beans, fresh corn, and avocado, with a dressing of olive oil, fresh lime, cumin, and garlic.

I added some chopped jalapeno, red bell pepper, onion, tomato, and cilantro. It was so good on this hot, humid afternoon. And some leftover for tomorrow.

Maque choux - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yep, that's it. I usually start off with some diced salt pork, but didn't have any so I used bacon instead. And when it's in season fresh corn on the cob. Scrape the cob with the back of the blade to get the juice (milk?) and you won't have to add any extra liquid.
