What's for Dinner, Sunday?

12 years ago

Our dinner plans are not exciting, to say the least.

Jello, broth, cranberry juice, apple juice, 5-Alive......hubby goes into surgery tomorrow to pull that pesky cancerous prostate out.

He's been on a liquid diet all day, and I've been joining him. Not fair for me to be baking bread, and eating, when he can't have any.

I'll join you in your meals, vicariously! ;-)

Oh Jas, good luck to both of you! We had a (sorry) lovely pork roast, oven roasted potatoes, and zucchini with onions. Some gingerbread from last night. Hate those liquid only days.

My meal won't tempt you at all. All repeats from last night.

He's on my prayer list. Keep us updated please.

Another beautiful day here in Ohio. I'm trying to drink in as much sunshine as I can since it's supposed to rain the next 5 days straight.

Raven, simple meal, I like it! Kittie, that is nice that he cooked. Well I made huge buns, they spread for some reason, so made huge patties..cooked them on the Foreman, after some onion slices and bacon..then loaded up with tomato and lettuce..so that was it..no sides...just mondo burgers. Oh product alert..Kraft slices, White Cheddar Habanero Cheese..really quite tasty not hot at all..just spicy..never noticed them before..and I buy a lot of sliced cheeses..so I'm not sure if it's new or Safeway just started carrying it. But I highly recommend..for a little flavor punch.

I've thawed a couple of boneless chicken breasts (I'll save a little of one for a soup for my lunch ala Raven) and plenty of fresh veggies for a stir fry. Robert will be my sous chef.....there will be lots of chopping and dicing and my hands are so sore from yesterday's pruning. He's using my mandolin, so let us pray. Let's see....green pepper, onion, garlic, fresh ginger, broccoli, carrots, Chinese cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, sugar snap peas. I'll season the brown rice with a little sesame oil.....so fragrant.

The roast recipe/method is copied and pasted below. I was so worried about the length of time at that heat (it was just a tiny little roast, maybe 4 or 5 lbs), but it came out so good! Hubby said a couple of times that it tasted exactly like how he remembers his mom's cooking and that he felt like he just sat back down at her dinner table (she's been gone 30 years). Very happy memories for him. He mentioned it again this morning. This is the only way I'll do pork shoulder roasts now: Default Re: Question about Pork Roasts You will LOVE this!!! It is sooooo awesome! Pork roast (shoulder or butt) oven set at 325 degrees flour( 1 cup) salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and a dash or two of cayenne in a bag. Toss in roast and coat on all sides. Place in pan and bake for 4 hours. DO NOT baste I guarantee you will think you went to heaven! I just throw the flour and spices in a bag and then the roast. I make sure to coat it well with the flour mix and then put it in a pan with a rack. Do not cover, do not baste, do not add any anything. Just let it cook. It is fabulous. It is an old hispanic recipe and I've had it forever. I wish I could give proper credit, but I can't. Try it, you'll love it! Just be sure to use a cheap cut of pork (shoulder or butt) I've never tried it with a tenderloin.

I've lurked a long time and have just begun to post a bit. I admire the way you are dealing with your health challenges. I'm a breast cancer patient and can certainly empathize. I'm lucky that my husband is healthy, but not always helpful. Dinner for us is one gorgeous, homegrown beefsteak tomato on BLT's with tomato and roasted red pepper bisque.

We had grilled cheese sandwiches, with a choice of swiss, provolone, pimento, crisped pancetta. I like thin slices of sweet pepper in my sandwiches, too.

Sliced tomatoes on the side.

It has been another full and busy day. I fixed food to go with grilled hot dogs and hamburgers and we took it all to Amber and Mike's. I took corn on the cob, baked beans, fried potatoes, coleslaw, a cake and the meats.

Awhile after eating we came home with Cheryl, Kevin and Alyssa. I have been outside all day since our dinner. My supper was just a fried egg, buttered toast and hot tea. It was a late supper for me. May have bad weather move in tonight. I hope your hubby does well Sherry. Will add him to my prayers.

I made asparagus mushroom risotto using asparagus from our garden and these two morel mushrooms from our yard.

If you don't hear from me tomorrow than maybe they weren't morel mushrooms after all.

Sending good thoughts for you and your husband tomorrow..
