Somehow, DH lost interest in grilling. I got fresh fish which we had with green salad. Rice from the steamer. And a Dubai chocolate after!!!

I made Homity Pie and served with a bit of salad and home grown tomatoes.

It tasted pretty good too! (Had some more for lunch today and it actually tasted even better.)
The recipe I used did not have meat in it. However, I couldnt help but think it would be greatly enhanced if I added some smoked bacon to it... so I did! ;-)

Actually they are chopped pieces and distributed throughout the filling, but yes, you can see pieces on the top too.
And I would say they did enhance the pie. Probably the original recipe was an economical one which wouldn't have included meat historically.
Yum, looked it up to... gonna try it - sounds like a marriage of frittata and quiche.

I'll try to remember to do that later today. Right now, I'm getting ready to go to the bank. If I don't remember to post it, please remind me. And so I don't have to hunt for it again, it's the recipe for the pork chops Lyonnaise.
Not sure I get it??? Is that pokeweed?
Don't know anything about it. Edible? Toxic?

That be pokeweed.
For our poke thread.
It's kind of edible.
Not something I want to mess with. In spite of eating milkweed pods and they are poisonous if not done right.
From what I've read, pokeweed is a little more particular and a lot more poisonous.

Milkweed pods:
An inch long or over. No more than 1-1/2"
Boil for 8 minutes
Saute to your liking. I use butter or EVOO and garlic.
So the seeds/fuffy stuff inside hasn't really formed yet?
Do they have any nutrition? As in survivor type... ?

Here's the recipe in Danish. Google translate did a great job with one exception. It tells you to serve it with roast potatoes, but it is actually home fries, the kind cut in coins.
I make a couple of changes: I substitute shallots for the onion. I add thyme and I add a good sized blob of Dijon. I found those ideas in other recipes for Lyonnaise pork chops.

I have cooked milkweed buds. They were very good. I don't remember how I cooked them. I haven't had milkweed growing in my front yard in about 40 years.
Nice taxy, thank you! Made a note of it. Very similar to what I already do when just standing there staring at a chop. LOL
Yeah, it is kind of basic, but I find that the vinegar adds a really nice touch and when you call it Lyonnaise, it sounds fancy. I just realized that I make another change. I use chicken stock, since pork stock is hard to come by. I made it with pork loin once, but it was a bit blander than usual. I think cooking it with the bone adds some flavour. It isn't the first recipe that was a bit disappointing when I tried to make it with a boneless piece of meat instead of the bone-in piece of meat.
