The Kitchen Table

What's for dinner Tuesday?

15 years ago

I poached some chicken breasts this morning and made chicken salad. I added a little onion, lots of celery, red grapes, English walnuts and a tad sprinkle of curry. Mayo as a binder. It really tastes good. I bought some orange-cranberry muffins to go with them.

Those 4 chicken breasts made enough meat for the salad tonight and Harry's lunch tomorrow plus I sealed 2 c. for a casserole later and 1-3/4 c. for soup. It will taste so good this winter.

What are you having tonight? Glenda, I know you had your ladies luncheon today--what was good?

Luncheon isn't until the 2nd Monday, will be later.

Best friend brought me an awesome serving of ina garten's beef bourguignon, she prepared while her sister was visiting. Delicious!

I love Ina, and her recipes!!

I baked some chicken breasts, had roasted lemony potatoes, and made an awesome apple cobbler. I was thinking of making a pie, but a cobbler is so much easier, and tastes similar.
It was all so good!

Glenda, that'll keep you warm and inside until the storm is passed you. Stay safe! Shirley, that sounds delish! Like a picnic--I think you're ready for spring, girl! Kittiesmom, I'm glad you got home safely. Hope you don't have to work tomorrow. Enjoy the sloppy joes. They're always a good thing! Mary, are you in the path of that storm Glenda is talking about? It looks like it's going straight across GA and then head north, but maybe that's changed. No doctor today, just finished up business from Harry's death. That chicken sounds good, Raven. I need to put mushrooms on my grocery list. I bought a 2-1/2 qt. crockpot when they were on sale at Wal-Mart before T-giving. I could use it since my other is way too big.

That pizza burger sounds scrumptious with mac and cheese, Tami! But I'd probably go with your hamburger. With a thick slice of onion and lots of mayo!!! Cheryl, I tried rendering lard once. It was okay but not anything special for the toil! I do love me some fried taters. Terri, I haven't tried roasting cauliflower but I've seen pictures on Pinterest and it looks good. I do like roasted Brussels sprouts. They get all brown and yummy! Kittiemom, you are eating waaay to healthy :-) That sounds good.

Glenda, have fun with your boys! Chi83, I've seen a few soup recipes on Pinterest that used kale and beans. Nice combination---I could sub something else for the quinoa, I'm sure. Monica, yum! Bet your house smells so good. I imagine a lot of KT'ers will be looking for the key lime pie mix. Pam, you get more done in one day than 5 people! When I lived in IN I used to work the polls. It was nice when people brought us goodies since we couldn't leave the building from 5 a.m. until about 7 or 8 that night. I loved doing that! Shirley, after reading Pam's post I feel like I did nothing! Got more to do tomorrow. I'll be glad when tilapia tastes right again! Jasdip, I've read about those tomatoes too, but I thought they were really expensive. Glad you found out differently. I like Pomi brand tomatoes. They are imported from Italy and in a box like chicken broth comes in. The ingredient list is pretty short: tomatoes. :-) Mary, unfortunately I'm not finished with all the changes, but the list is getting short. :-) Grilled cheese sounds really good. Georgysmom, do you like your new closet? Was your DH surprised? Good luck at bridge!! Raven, hope that rain heads north instead of east. Spaghetti was always a winning dinner around here.

Yea, seagrass! You had enough left over. Harry used to make a really good acorn squash and fill the center with a brown sugar, pecan and splash of bourbon filling. It was like dessert! Enjoy your dinner! Glenda, I drool everytime I hear "smoked chicken salad". Saw an ad for a place that sells smoked mullet. Have to find it and make some mullet spread. Lordy, I could live on that stuff. Now you have us all intrigued about your lunch tomorrow. How about a hint? Is "it" male or female :-) Sue, I swear you have the best kids. They sure are a big help to them--but then, you're a big help to them, also. Sweet Betsy, so good of you to help at the hospice library. They took good care of Harry for the short time he was there. Good luck with your cheesecake. They're pretty easy, really. Shirley, isn't it strange how something can sound so good and turn out bad? I have 4 3-ring binders with recipes and make comments in the margin after I try them--whether good or bad and changes I made or would make. Maybe someone will like reading them someday. I know your salmon patties were good, though!! Jasdip, that's just too darned cold for me. Your pasta and veggies tasted nice and warming, I bet. Stay warm!!

So again I had to run an errand after work! So hubby walked in, I finished up tomorrow's luncheon order for our Chicago clients and Saturday's pub crawl appetizers and charge authorizations for some of our NYC clients.....oh and got the tchotchke (t-shirts, caps, rubik's cubes and photos) ready to fed ex tomorrow we ran to Staples for frames for the photos.....

So we stopped at a couple of grocers then picked up some grilled chicken from KFC, I made some green beans and had an apple for dessert. It really sucks to 'cheat' on my diet and have the culprit be a Stayman apple!!!! LOL!!!

We had stuffed cabbage rolls. I hadn't had stuffed cabbage in 25 years! I don't know why I decided to try a new recipe, probably because DH does not like them. I thought if I tried a new recipe he might like them better. It was Tyler Florence's recipe so I thought it would be good. Wrong! I wish I had stuck to my old recipe. I have lots of rolls in the freezer....hope I can salvage them. I'll try doctoring up with my own sauce.
