I have no idea. I think it might be pasta something.

jake's leaving work early to cook meatballs. he's not very into pasta so it'll probably be on a cellone's roll for him & mine just with sauce. that was what i was starving for last nite, & he needed to help his buddy paint. i was ticked!

Brother-in-law and his wife will be in town tonight, so, we are grilling porkchops (marinating in a simple Kroger "steak sauce" marinade), pesto pasta (pasta, diced onion, red pepper, zuchinni, It. blend shredded cheese, dressing is Miracle Whip and pesto from a jar), carrots with marjoram, bread.

In honor of "Bastille Day" - lol - I'll be making Julia Child's recipe (which I've adapted a little) for Coquilles St. Jacques. Baked in huge natural scallop shells & all! Since this is very rich, the only accompaniment will be a big mixed green salad.

 

[Vanilla Bean]

I've decided on making beef patties with homemade gravy, mashed potatoes and a vegie.

 

[powerplantop]

Left over crab cake, yellow squash and tomatoes.

Okay, so I have a respite from cakes (albeit a short one) and have my passion for cooking back.

Today I did steak kabobs in my own marinade of balsamic, olive oil, garlic and fresh herbs. I threaded them with mushrooms and red onions. Sides were salad and baked potatoes.

It isn't quite grilling weather and DH is down with a cold so I tried them on the Griddler and they were fantastic (if I do say so myself!). Clean-up was a breeze too.

Dessert is a batch of Katie's dutch chocolate ice cream for me (I am hopelessly addicted to it), soy ice "cream" for DH and no sugar added vanilla ice cream for Dad, and fresh strawberries all round.

 

[appleyard14]

Those kabobs sounds delicious.
I might just make myself some tonight

I wish I could have taken a picture of them but there wasn't time - they were gobbled up so fast!

 

[appleyard14]

Next time you make them you owe me a picture!

Wow, your crab cakes look huge, even though it might just be the picture! That looks delicious! I love yellow squash (depending on the variety) and tomatoes! I would have enjoyed your dinner very much

, but a little cup of tartar sauce would have been requested.

I have never had beet greens, but I might like them. It's hard when you don't know what they taste like.

Your chicken sure looks fabulous! Thanks for the picture!
