Thanks Taxy, I will have a look

Schinken Noodle (Ham & Noodles) and a big salad. And a LARGE gin and tonic. Maybe more then one. Long day.

 

[pacanis]

I got caught up in things this afternoon and never made it to the grocery store, so I'm thawing some goulash for dinner. At least I have the fixings for a salad to go along.

 

[kadesma]

Making some yummy lamb chops alla Kades with a Snip twist and some corn pap (maize meal) and homemade chilli and onion relish.

What was your twist Snip?

am thawing a small container of home made beef vegetable soup. I used a store bought precooked pot roast with all home grown vegetables.

Sounds good Beth. Good to see you here.

[Dawgluver]

Leftover Halloween candy. We planned to go out, but DH is in a mood.....

 

[salt and pepper]

Tonight it's pork Cutlets Holstein, potato pancakes w/ apple sauce. So looking forward to this, but waiting for my girl to get home soon! Just might start without her! No better not. The smell is killing me. Hurry home!

 

[Cerise]

My 2 1/2 - 3 lb tri-tip is almost thawed. If it defrosts in time, the plan is, to brown it on the stovetop, add it to the slow cooker w Pinot Noir, Italian seasoning, sliced onions & garlic. Fingerling potatoes au gratin & steamed brussels sprouts on the side, & cream-filled horns from the bakery.

It came out okay. About halfway through cooking the meat looked a little rubbery, so I added more wine, carrots, onions & potatoes (skipped the potato gratin & sprouts). The tri-tip was $25 marked down to about $13 - Manager's Special. Maybe it was the meat, or it's just not made for the slow cooker.

 

[Chef Maloney]

That sounds interesting Chef...I have never thought of eggplant in a curry...I like

I posted the GREEN CURRY CHICKEN WITH EGGPLANT recipe in the ethnic recipes section.

 

[roadfix]

A friend is preparing a whole load of ceviche for us this evening!

 

[Kayelle]

Beth and Pac, I like getting one of those pre cooked pot roasts once in a while for making great pot pies for us. Tyson is the brand around here and they're often on sale.

Tonight we're having boxed mac n cheese dressed up some with a can of tomatoes and cut up smoked sausage. The kids used to love it, and it just sounded good and easy tonight. Spinach and mushroom salad on the side.

I cooked tri-tip last night. I sliced them in steak sizes, seasoned them with S&P, and grilled them on cast iron on the stovetop.
Normally I'll take them and grill them whole over a BBQ grill, turning frequently, hot and fast, which is my preferred method.

That's on my menu too. Right now its hummus and chips and later, gin and tonic!

Good choice! I am rocking the tatziki and carrot and celery sticks. I've got pita chips but I'm trying to stick to the veggies. Of course, the gin and tonic may cancel any efforts to healthy living. Oh well.

 

[Greg Who Cooks]

Some Curry Chicken & Eggplant. It's a great Thai recipe I came across in a cookbook. Served w/Jasmine Rice, Cheesecake for dessert.

Tell us more!!! Y'all know I'm a sucker for Thai food. Name the cookbook and I'll get it from my library (if I don't already have it).

 

[Greg Who Cooks]

We cant get haddock over here for some reason...

Reminds me of the old song... What had she had? Had she had haddock? (Don't fret, it was before my time too....)

 

[Greg Who Cooks]

going to throw some chicken breasts on the grill .. wifey has asked for hashbrowns .. will cook some of those .. and a veggie of some sorts ...

Reminds me of a restaurant I once knew... "Our breasts can't be beat!"
