Full meal-sized salads with lettuce, broccoli, tomatoes, apples, pickles, red beans, wheat berries, topped with seasoned tempeh and caesar dressing(oil free).
4 tiny mandarin oranges.

We had tartiflette and a salad with blue cheese dressing. I made half of the tartiflette with potatoes and the other half I substituted sunroots (Jerusalem artichokes) for the potatoes. It was good. We didn't use reblochon, which is traditional, but used a local Quebec cheese called "Le Cousin". It is supposed to be similar.

Potatoes on the left, sunroots on the right.

Here are our plates, first the one for DH, with potato followed by the one for me with the sunroots.

Just a couple of simple quesadillas for me. Salsa on the side for dipping.

Broccoli & cheese soup with a ham sandwich on toast. I may try cubing the ham next time and having it in the soup with some croutons. Dark chocolate and mandarin orange for afters.

[Cooking Goddess]

One of these days I will finally cook in my new kitchen. Meanwhile, this setting up the house business is taking our time and energy. After spending an obscene amount of money on a new big screen TV and sound bar, we popped into a nearby 5 Guy's to quiet our grumbellies.



We used to be able to knock back a large fries between us. Either we lost our moxie or the fries guy tossed even more extra fries in the bag than normal. Their fries actually reheat pretty good, especially with a convection oven.

I assume the ribeye "filet" is the "eye" part of that steak down under, with the "cap" being the part that wraps around the eye? Can you buy the two separately there?

I sometimes separate them into two parts before vacuum sealing and freezing. The cap needs to be rolled and tied. You get two nice portions of steak. The cap is the better part, but both are very good.

@caseydog - yes, we can buy the eye and the cap either together or butchered separately
