Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Supper -- what are you cooking? - Page 37  

I'm making tuna casserole with salad and corn. Not the usual tuna with the cream o mushroom soup for sauce... I'm making the white sauce from scratch and adding some cajun spice to it, and some veggies to the casserole. YUMMY!

Last night I pan fried a piece of halibut and served it with jasmine rice run through with toasted and chopped pinenuts and sultanas. I served with asparagus and a tarragon, lemongrass and coconut cream sauce. I have to say it tasted a lot better than my limited plating skills made it look!:lol:

Tonight it will be fried pork chops, mustard greens, cornbread, mac & cheese and peach cobbler.

It's cold here today so I'm making a big pot of chili for dinner. We're going to have homemade biscuits with it and salad.

Texas red(chili) here too with homemade bread.

Brazillian restaurant South Beach very spicy and flavorful and it'll be around midnight.
Hope I can hold out till then:eek:

Red Chili Chicken and Rice with Black Beans outta Bayless' everyday Mexican book.



While I certainly love Italian food....I think I'm more in love with Mexican...Mexican Cuisine...will you marry me?

Is his special mole recipe in there?
Pretend I am a dog panting with excitement ;)
I'd love that recipe

Last night we did simple spice rubbed roast chicken (done in the "Turbo" oven - so moist!) pasta alfredo, and a mix of julienned beetroot, carrot and really dark caramelised onion...my daughter suggested that mix and it was very tasty (she'd had it with 'roo at a restaurant).

No formal dinner tonight as I had a huge egg salad and tomato sandwich for "dunch"

Hah, a High Tea can do that to ya too. Kind of like "brunch" of the afternoon type.

hmmmm must have been an ostrich egg :crazy:

I'd bought it at a place where you choose your "everyhing" toppings as they're making it or piling it on and they don't stop until you say so. Then, you pay by weight. By the time I said ok stop, I think it was 7 lbs :0

Stock is simmering for tomorrows chicken wild rice soup.

I....uh.....how do I say this. I like to try out a few recipes in a cookbook before buying.

So...I usually invade B&N on the weekends and snap pictures of recipes with my iPhone. shhhh don't tell no one. but i do usually end up picking them up if I find myself going back to a book. needless to say I'll be picking up all of bayless's books. along with the other Mexican one I'm missing from Kennedy.

Oh for shame RPM :P

Sounds like a great idea...not that I'd ...ummm... do that. Oh no, not ever :)

Was tired last night so just made chicken stir fry with veg on noodles, soy and oyster sauce, homemade chicken stock (there's always some of that hanging around), crnflour slurry to thicken, sliced scallion to top. Went ok :) Bowls and chopsticks in front of the idiot box, feet on coffee table.

it actually causes me to buy MORE cookbooks if you can believe it. becuase I can try a few recipes and well...there are so many good cookbooks.


tonight, I have some basic marinara/sugo/gravy on the stove simmering and some gemelli about to go take a hot bath.

trying to use up everything before we go away.

Ham, cheesy US style au-gratin potatoes, cucumber salad.

Mostly it was about clearing out some older bits from the pantry and fridge.

There are too many cook books...they live in the kitchen, they live in the lounge, they turn up in the bedroom....they are taking over the house!!!!!

Getting ready to move insterstate here...but...how can I give even the simplest one away? :( Its like farewelling a visitor from across the planet you'll never see again. As Lucy would say "WAAAAAAH!"

It's ok...I'll be fine....one day....

Donate them to a friend so you can call and ask for a recipe :chef:

I had never had duck confit before so I bought some from a top supplier. Absolutely wonderful, especially as I roasted some potatoes in a little of the duck fat also. I made a plum sauce using fruit from our own plum tree to cut through the richness and had buttered beans on the side. :lips:

Since I'm not a heavy eater, I'll have italian food for dinner. Tuna pesto or Lasagna with Garlic bread. And for dessert, Icecream is always the best! :)

Starter: Grilled Romaine lettuce heads cut in half, roasted, with orange and olive oil dressing topped with roasted pine nuts and orange segments.
2nd : Wild Mushroom Risotto

Entree : Pan- Seared Scallops with white wine reduction, served with carrot and parsnip puree with a baked tomato and and garnished with a branch of terragon.

Dessert: Easy Pineapple Sorbet in a champange glass with a sprig of mint.

My bottle of Tishbi Chardonnay 2006 reserve is already getting cool.

A Great way to Celebrate Labor Day Weekend with beautiful weather and a full moon.....:lips:

First night of holiday weekend.
Don't know what to make for dinner.
Have a good Labor Day weekend.

Ok got it. I'm making Rubee's suggestion
On that meatloaf thread. I think it's the first one under the
OP's search. Since I have my signed Chef Paul Prudhomme's
Louisiana Kitchen cookbook circa 1984, I don't have to look
too far, it's on page 112-113. < Cajun Meat Loaf.
Off to the market I go fir onions, bell peppers, scallions, celery, ground pork
and potatoes. husband will be a happy guy tonight, I hope :?

For dessert, I bought chocolate chocolate chip ice cream, a jar of hot fudge sauce for spooning over, chocolate jimmies and cocoa sifted on top.
What's wrong with me today:blush:

I'll go to the recipe page and post what I did there.

That was pleasant!

That was pleasant! As I mentioned in another thread I made some hash browns for sunday brunch that turned out nicely. I wanted some more. My plan as I walked into the market was to get a potato, an onion and some beef cube steak. Ah, cube steak, haute cuisine at its finest!

But then I was faced with a really tough decision. A package of cube steak, 1 meals worth, for about 3 bucks. Or one of the 2 - 3 pound bone in beef rib roasts on sale for 3.99/lb. Yep, tough decision, indeed.

I still had my hash browns, as well as an ear of sweet corn, but with a nice slab of rib roast and mushroom sauce. And enough beef left over for another few meals. Yum.

mjb.

brussels sprouts au gratin, with thick ham slices and cheddar mash potatoes, with NYT bread from last night.
bread pudding if I have the energy.

Left over Beer Can chicken that is being turned into a fresh "chicken pot pie" type of dish when I get home. Went to the farmers market last night and got some AMAZING "butter" corn, white celery, end of season really sweet bell peppers, fresh sweet peas and dragon beans. For me its more about the dough I make to cover it than anything else, its sooooo buttery and flaky and has never let me down.

Last night was Beer Can chicken with mashed pots(which I will use to thicken my stock for the pot pie tonight) and some wonderful peas and purple sweet carrots.

Lunch - nice thick chunky chicken and veg soup with french bread and butter

Dinner - Fish cakes, tossed green salad, pasta alfredo

Dunno, we're driving home now so probably just grilled cheese sammies and tomato soup when we get home.
Quick, easy and satisfying

today i m going to prepare coal chicken
name of this recipe is coal chicken cuz chicken is rosted on coal then it is prepared.
