Beautiful meal!
All of your dishes are oh so pretty!
And kind of off topic but the candles in your picture add a very nice touch, very cute and simple.

Made some turkey burgers last night after finally getting my kitchen back together (i had made some upgrades)

made a bacon ranch sauce, mainly because i wanted to cook the bacon in the cast iron before the burgers.

sauteed some veggies quick too. Made about 3 lbs of burgers, (about 8) and froze half cooked the rest.

I think for tonight its going to either be what my DH calls stuff in a bowl which is Wild Rice, Back Eyed Peas, and Georgia Boy Sausage all in a pot. Or I might possibly do fried cube steak, green beans and potatoes, and mac n cheese. I wish I could cook the food I do for catering venues at home sometimes, lol.

Default mock haggis

I got a wild hair the other day and made a sort of, Haggis inspired dish.

I toasted some steel cut oats, then set them aside.

I browned up a pound of ground sirloin, and some spicy beef sausage, that was cubed.

I added 2 rough chopped white onions, and a stalk of celary to the meat.

Seasoned with salt and pepper, parsley, little paprika, and cayenne pepper.

Added the oats, and cooked down for a about 15 minutes. Then added some chicken stock, little white wine, and some water.

Brought it up to a boil on the stove, then put it in the oven covered at 300'. Let it cook for about 3 hours.


Cubed up some potatoes and pan fried them to a golden brown.

Served them side by side on a plate. It was pretty good!! My Wife liked it after trying it, and even went in for seconds. The kids were not so fond of it, but I made them at least taste it.

Default Lemon Chicken...

I made some Lemon Chicken the other night which do not have as much batter and I made the sauce using lemonade, a bit of apple cider vinegar and sugar. DH loves it very much...I got the recipe from another list and copied it and made it as a challenge to me -- personally -- to test if I can follow instructions.

Cheers,
elizabethbryce

This morning I had a big bowl of home made chicken soup made with spring water and with lots of vegetables and some brown basmati rice mixed in. The chicken was all breast meat. I shared some of the chicken with my cat, Buddy, who always enjoys a piece of poultry.

We had a few friends over this afternoon and I prepared a variety of rustic pizzas (7) using the Napoletana pizza dough from The Bread Bakers Apprentice. The recipe is simple and makes a terrific thin crust dough with a crunch, but not a slab of cardboard. Check it out if you're looking for a great crust.
