Sunday dinner, January 8, 2023

[medtran49]

Open face sandwiches with last of prime rib from Christmas, purchased and then doctored up gravy on top of garlic Texas toast, green beans, and smashed roasted Yukon gold potatoes.

 

[msmofet]

I had a salami sandwich

 

[cjmmytunes]

Thin-crust ground beef, mushroom, and onion pizza from Domino's. .5 Costco blueberry muffin for dessert.

 

[GinnyPNW]

Took a filet roast out of the freezer. It was really just a part of the roast that was too much for last time...anyway, roasting that along with pan roasted asparagus and a rice pilaf. Probably garlic toast too. At least, that's the plan. Still early here in PNW.

We ordered burgers. Too much stress and worry at the moment.

 

[dragnlaw]

So far, doesn't sound like anyone really wants to cook tonight.
Think the wine is winning over cooking at this place.

Anyone want to hop on the plane with me and head for PNW?
Filet sounds good.

 

[Andy M.]

Pepperoni pizza. Came out pretty good!

I'm so sorry! Sending stress-release vibes your way! Alternatively, get on the plane with @dragnlaw! The more the merrier! If the filet is gone, I'll find something worthy!

 

[Silversage]

I sous vide a couple burgers to 124F (pretty rare). That gave me some leeway when I put them on the griddle to brown them. Melted Jarlsburg, sauteed mushrooms, Peter Luger sauce. Toasted brioche bun. Beautifully pink and juicy.

 

[blissful]

Stir fried (steamed) veggies with brown basmati rice and stir fry sauce. Black bean brownies.

 

[Kaneohegirlinaz]

@dragnlaw I didn't really cook either, just heated up some leftover steamed White Rice and some of my Paniolo Chili from the deep freeze ... knew I was going to be busy today ...

(file photo - `cuz that's how busy I was today )

 

[Cooking Goddess]

I cooked! We started with loaded garden salads. The main event was smoked pork chops from our favorite non-Amish butcher in Amish Country. Sides were my famous Brussels sprouts casserole, and nuked potatoes. I took the jacket off of mine because it was showing a bit of green.


Not sure if you've seen the white plates yet. Stopped at Target for cleaning supplies last week. On the way back to the registers, I spied these plates down an aisle. $3 each? Yes, please.

I was getting a craving for Indian food, so I made a one dish meal with a sambar, which I made with a large onion, bell pepper, carrot, and some rehydrated eggplants, plus about a tb of minced garlic. I already had the sambar masala ready, which I used about 3 tb of, along with 2 tb tamarind. I used 3 different dals, plus 1/2 c whole oats, instead of serving on rice. I also ate one of those WW bread sticks with it, that I made today - something I often eat instead of flatbreads, if I have them.

I made some ostropel with mashed potatoes. It's the lazy man dinner around here. Fried some chicken, tossed tomato juice and garlic and dinner is done.

Is that a bowl of sweet and sour red cabbage I see too?

 

[Kathleen]

We had steamed shrimp with onions and potatoes.

Oh yes! Every meal has to have this side salad. I mean every meal. Either stew, beans, pot roast. It's like I can't properly eat without a side salad. It's just sweet red cabbage with a dressing of vinegar, sunflower oil and salt.
