Oh wow Med, I have two bacon wrapped filet mignon in the freezer I was just now thinking about. How do you porcini crust them? I have lots of dried porcini.

A bowl of split pea soup and the last of the salad fixin's!
It was an epicurious recipe. S and P, then cover with the porcini powder and pat down to crust. Use the herb butter to cook in pan and for garnish. Butter called for raw garlic, which i will NOT do next time, either use roasted or cooked in some oil and drained. I also subbed thyme for tarragon because I don't like it. Can't copy and paste link on my tablet but it's easy enough to google.

Thanks Med. I think I'll still do them bacon wrapped, and see if the porcini crust still works. I'm with you, I detest the flavor of tarragon.
Oh boy, we'll have some fine meals tonight.

I had a 2-egg ham, asparagus, bell pepper and cheese omelet, and a slice of toasted whole wheat. Oh, and a couple of mandarin oranges.

On the other "What's for dinner?" thread I stated I was making chili verde. Sadly, I fell asleep for way too long an chili verde is no longer an option.
SO and I scrambled around and found miscellaneous food scraps to satisfy our hunger.

Whoops, I didn't see that there was an earlier 'what's for dinner' thread started. Sorry. 
I made teriyaki beef and a sort of Chinese stir fry. Served it with brown basmati rice.
I used a recipe for the teriyaki sauce that I found here: http://www.discusscooking.com/forums/f15/psychic-teriyaki-chicken-5118.html#post52229. I put a bit less than half the sugar and had to add more corn starch dissolved in water at the end. I think "1/2 t" should have been "1/2 tblsp". It was really good. Stirling said it was the best teriyaki sauce he had tasted, because it wasn't too sweet. I really liked it too. Other times that I have made teriyaki, I have marinated the meat. I like this better. Meat that is marinated doesn't brown as easily and the sugar burns easily. Next time I will double the ginger.

No problem Cheryl, actually I thought the other one was just about football.
Nothing better than more food talk.

Me too, I didn't even look at it since I'm not into football. Sorry for starting another thread.

When I start a dinner thread, I always go to the "Today's Menu" forum, then double-check after creating my post to make sure no one else (Cheryl) was starting a dinner thread too! Cheryl and I have tag-teamed a few dinner threads in our time.
Maybe a Mod could merge this thread with the other "Army-Navy" dinner thread?

I did check, saw the Army-Navy game title and thought it was about football.
