[Cooking Goddess]

We had romaine and spinach salads with Cardini's Original Caesar Dressing (good stuff ), followed by Tuscan Butter Shrimp with pappardelle.


What did you eat?

 

[GinnyPNW]

I roasted a Turkey Breast and we had that along with Jasmine rice, gravy and zuke on the side. No pictures...sorry!

 

[Kaneohegirlinaz]

It wasn't a good day!
Quick dinner of grilled Salmon Filets and Asparagus ... gotta move on!

 

[taxlady]

Since my migraine isn't gone yet, we did a scrounge supper. I had some store bought samosas and tamarind sauce, so we started with those. I heated them in the toaster oven. Then we just munched cheeses and cold cuts on various kinds of bread. Nice, slow conversation filled supper.

 

[Aunt Bea]

Frozen breaded butterfly shrimp with a handful of frozen shoestring potatoes and the last of the cabbage salad.

 

[caseydog]

I made a big pot of Dirty Rice, a Louisiana staple.

This sounds great and I want to try it but I need to adapt the recipe to a single serving.

I'm not sure how best to do that so it may take a few attempts before I get it right!

Practice, practice, practice.

 

[GotGarlic]

I was so tired yesterday afternoon I fell asleep and when I woke up, DH had made spaghetti with meat sauce for dinner And garlic bread.

 

[dragnlaw]

Was too pooped to pop. Ate some grapes.
But I did some small shell pasta, poached a chicken breast, boiled up some eggs - so I'll be good for the rest of the weekend.
And got a catfish... just check'n out recipes now. Oven-baked with... something

 

[Marlingardener]

We had tortellini with marinara sauce, Italian bread, and pepperoncini.
Dragnlaw, there is a great recipe for Cajun baked catfish on tasteofhome.com/recipes/cajun-baked-catfish. I've used it a few times, and it is really good. What to serve with it? Cold beer!

 

[medtran49]

We had pressure cooker red wine short ribs with pearl onions, carrots and fingerling potatoes. All gone.

This sounds great and I want to try it but I need to adapt the recipe to a single serving...

I don't make a full recipe, more like half when it comes to the shrimp and pasta. Himself does love his pasta. BUT I always make more sauce! The first time I measured exactly and thought the sauce volume was too skimpy. You could probably measure shrimp and noodles for one, then divide the sauce ingredients in half. Save a little cooking water; I usually end up adding that to the sauce, too.

And I include way more spinach than called for. Shhhh, don't tell Himself.
