Good dinners here.
I had a freaking Angus burger from McD's, the mushroom swiss one.
Felt like my stomach was going to explode after.
:/
Happy to have a few days off coming so I can cook my own food.

I was thinking: Jena said she was running out for food to bring back.
I threw 5 bucks at her and told her to get me something, had no idea where she was going... told her I didn't care.
Oh Mylanta!

Comfort food tomorrow, for sure.

Oh ok now I understand. You deserve something good to make up for that. Mashies and gravy or mac and cheese and gravy!! YUM LOL

 

[luvs]

hoping that stomach is better in the morning, lollie.

i jus made a 2nd dinner, half asleep yet ravenous, so extra pasta from the other nite & a fresh batch of clams. a few cans of pop. i was planning on a soy yogurt or pudding, reese's pieces & a rice krispies treat. i need my rest, tho. is there much better to hear than your doctor say u can have as much food as u'd like & ur not going to gain an ounce.

nothing special. took the edge from my hungry stomach, tho:

 

[lilbopeep]

It's nice to see I am not the only person who doesn't eat traditional breakfast food in the AM. I also only got about 3 hours sleep (maybe a little less than 3 hours).

I am thinking of having a chili dog for breakfast.

 

[luvs]

sounds like breakfast to me, peepz.
food is food.
called my late nite meal a 2nd dinner as i haven't made dinner before late at nite recently, stay awake all nite on purpose, & have taken to having a second 'dinner' (or snacks) later on. i'd not yet snoozed @ that point.

 

[pirate_girl]

Beef lo mein and crab rangoon.

 

[luvs]

sounds good, lollie. rangoon is the best & lo mein is way better than the stuff that arrives w/ rice. they won't sub noodles fer rice anywhere

 

[lilbopeep]

Semi boneless chuck steak nicely seasoned with herbs and spices grilled on CI stovetop grill pan. Sides are a salad composed of red and green butter lettuce, vine tomatoes (shop-rite has beautiful vine tomatoes all year), black olives, raw broccoli and mushroom caps dressed with homemade vinaigrette dressing and topped with roasted sliced almonds and mushroom caps steamed then sautéed in butter with some Maggi seasoning.

Beef

Cheese Burgers on the charcoal grill with Tostitos® hint of jalapeno chips & some kick ass Guajillo salsa (roasted garlic and tomatillos)!

 

[muleman]

Wife brought home some taco chips and lettuce so we made a huge taco salad with shredded cheese and some of our tomatoes from the greenhouse. Topped the spiced burger with salsa. Was it ever good!

 

[lilbopeep]

Nice meals iron and mule!!

 

[lilbopeep]

Pork and veggie stir-fry

Potato soup made with celery, onions, and real bacon. Mushrooms and red potatoes, skins still on. I thicken the soup with instant mashed potatoes.

Seasoned with coarse pepper, sea salt, chives and parsley.

I am on my third bowl already.

 

[JEV]

By special request, because I've been reading about them for what seems like weeks over on NCT, DW made all beef hot dogs from the local butcher shop, with Bush's Baked Beans (doctored) and leftover potato salad I made on Sunday. I'm here to tell you that hit the spot and satisfied my Jones for hot dogs for awhile.

After dinner I made up a batch of Lavash Crackers (aka Armenian crackers) for a party we're going to on Friday night. I was going to make them tomorrow night, but I was invited on Thursday evening to learn how to make Sopprasatta and another style of dried Italian sausage and I wasn't going to pass that opportunity up. Watch this space for the results of that effort.

something simple. i took a nap that turned into several hours snooze. split-pea soup & if this guy that takes me to buy food sometimes calls, lamb, too.

 

[luvs]

rather than make lamb as a main course, i realized i'd thawed some rabbit/pork/garlic/ginger sausage, so made a non-traditional & very thick soup despite thinning it w/ the sausage in it & cream- so much cream- & deglazing the sausage pan a few times & pouring that in. it's dreary weather, so this went over well tonite. it ain't very colorful, though it was good & made me good & full.

 

[lilbopeep]

Salad and homemade wonton soup (garnished with green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, hot chili sesame oil and bok choy leaves and stems)

 

[luvs]

i'll finally be making my lamb,- found double-cut & properly frenched ones, & some baby purple carrots & unsure 'bout the rest. maybe just some green beenz. i'm really hungry tho, so potato dauphinoise is on my mind.

peepz, that soup looks so good.

 

[Leni]

I made spaghetti and garlic toast. I made a double batch so that there is plenty left over.

 

[luvs]

i finally cooked dinner-
-snacks for while the food cooked that i got from the antipasto/olive bars & some speck
-lamb lollipops, litely herbed & cooked to in-between a rare/med-rare, purple baby carrots, just plain & buttered, some green beenz, & potato dauphinoise
-dessert-to-be is pomegranate kernals (or arils to be technical) & my beloved liberte yogurt in coconut. that is by far the best yogurt i've gotten in my day & finally found it again tonite
