What's for dinner, Wed, February 7, 2007?

[elaine l]

Dinner tonight for this lass will be probably close to the hotel I'll be staying at in Cancun. It might just be Champs that is in the parking lot by the lobby. Ensalada for me and maybe chips and salsa.
So, beaching, sun, surf and swimming for me tonight and tomorrow. Then tomorrow night it's Boston. So, heat to what? Snow?

So what are you coming up with today?

Try to stay warm...lots of blankets, tea, heater on full blast, and being toasty with your sweetheart.

Boston is my area. Bring lots of warm woolies.....alas no snow.


Chicken fajitas here with black beans, toppings, chocolate cream pie for dessert

I dunno. I've never heard of donairs.

Kim's cooking a fresh ham for a party we're having Saturday night...he thought it would be nice to get it done, cooled and sliced, so we don't have to mess with that on Saturday. He's got it in the big Hamilton Beach Roaster, and it smells so good, I can't hardly stand it!

So...we will definately be sampling that for supper tonight. The drippings in the bottom of the pan look heavenly...sure would make a good gravy for mashed potatoes! We shall see.

In honor of Uncle Bob I am going to start out my dinner menu with:

Sparkling Wine - then:

I have a chuck roast in the pressure cooker with some beef stock and red wine - red potatoes are cooking for some smashed potatoes with garlic and horseradish - asparagus will be roasting shortly - maybe a simple salad too - like, um - lettuce since I didn't get to the store

 

[shannon in KS]

Balsamic-glazed pork chops, spaghetti squash, salad, and sun-dried tomato basil french bread with EVOO/balsamic/herbs

We had pork chops with the onion sauce, mashed potatoes with the sauce over them, peas with sauteed mushrooms.butter and salt and pepper,I didn't have much for salad, so I sliced a cucumber, tossed it in a bowl with rice vinegar,lime juice,sugar,salt, pepper, added some mint leaves and cilantro leaves chilled it then served..pretty tasty. Dessert is going to be something off the top of my head, I roasted some pears in a little butter and honey, then added a little rum, plan to spoon this over some vanilla ice cream, have no idea what it will taste like,

Oh, I have an idea, kads...delicious!!!

Sofie would have like to have eaten with you tonight. She loves peas but I had cooked her some broccoli (which she likes too). Apparently she was in a pea mood: she kept handing the broccoli back to me and saying, "pea-pea! mama, pea-pea!"

Holy cow, kads! They're going to eat you out of house and home (of course who could blame them with the food in your house)! And I bet they still went home and had dinner, too!

Since my market had a treasure trove of fresh gorgeous tiny (1"-2") baby okra, I couldn't resist & bought a pound, half of which, sliced, went into a tweaked "Zatarains" jambalaya. I sauteed a package of chicken breasts & a couple of diced jalapeno peppers in some extra-virgin olive oil, then added the Zatarains mix. Ten minutes before it was done, I added in the sliced okra. It was delicious.

Haven't quite decided yet what to do with the remaining half pound of okra pods, but my cockatoo is certainly enjoying them. Boy, does she love okra!!

We are probably having leftover Super Bowl chili.

I made this one after the Superbowl.
The venison was given to me by a friend,(I didn't go into field this year) and with the weather that we have been having, I thought chili was the best bet. Turned out really good and helped to chase off the winter chill.
Stay warm on the other side of the river Mudbug
