Manhatten Clam Chowder

 

[cjmmytunes]

Vegetable beef soup we were supposed to have last night, along with crackers and peanut butter. No clue as to dessert yet.

Marinated carpaccio over a bed of lightly dressed baby arugula, garnished with ParmR shavings, plus arrancini made with risotto with some leftover chopped prosciutto, with a simple marinara made with passata.

Last of the ww spaghetti and tomato mushroom sauce, side of greens, small serving air fried french fries, finished the chocolate pie.

Pizza. It was not great pizza. It was okay pizza. By okay, I mean that we had to put zero thought into dinner today.

That solyanka inspired soup I made and served for supper yesterday was calling my name. So, we had the leftovers for supper tonight. I also heated up some store bought samosas. There was also bread. Nine grain bread for DH and rugbrød (Danish, whole grain, 100% rye bread, except for the added sunflower seeds). I even remembered to put out some dill to go with the soup. Not only was the dill pretty with the soup, it really went well flavourwise.

Definitely happy tummy around here. I'm already planning the next batch of solyankoid.

Shrimp in a white wine butter sauce with marinated artichokes.

I made a batch of homemade spaghetti yesterday in my Kitchen Aid with a mix of semolina and all purpose flour (and egg, salt, and olive oil). I froze some and we ate some.

Panko and parmesan cheese encrusted chicken breasts with marinara, fresh herbs and shaved parmesan over homemade spaghetti:

Had defrosted a chicken breast and also some ground pork, neither of which got used in the intended recipes. Threw them on the griddler with some Cajun spices. Heated some carrot and parsnip mash with rice and smother it all with Mushroom sauce.
Not bad but certainly nothing to rave about.

I'd say 3-5 dinners each week are what I call "fill the void" meals. If I'm not working a lot I try to pull off something fabulous 2x a week. It doesn't always work out as expected, lol.

Wednesdays can be tough in our house since I go right from work to do the weekly grocery shopping. If we have leftovers, great, otherwise cooking has to be quick because it's late. I'm cat sitting too so that adds some time to the equation.

I had leftover green salad and opened a can of tuna plus I had some delightful chocolate truffles. DH also had tuna but with a microwaved baked potato and the rest of his Trader Joe sauerkraut. With 2 beers so no room left!

I made a kit meal: Chicken with Honey-Garlic Pan Sauce + Roasted Potatoes & Brussels Sprouts. It was very good and will be repeated without the kit. Recipe Card Link, for anyone interested.

 

[dr morbius]

Working late all week. I made two packages of Cheetos jalapeno macaroni and cheese with two can tuna mixed in. It was, um, okay. But it was fast and easy.
