What's for dinner on Thursday?

9 years ago

My potatoes are getting old so I cooked a large pot of them with the skins on. We slathered butter and sour cream on them.

I made meatballs (Party don't look, it's ground beef!), and simmered them in a ketchup, vinegar and soy sauce mixture. Microed some cauliflower as well. Dinner was great!

Ravencajun, I have some beef ribs in the freezer--think I'll copycat your recipe. Not so crazy about beef ribs but they were on sale at some point. Gadgets, you put me to shame because you always seem to eat so healthy. Need to take some lessons from you!! Pam, nothing tastes better than a well-done (as in blackened) hot dog from the grill. Love cucumber salad too. I make mine in a creamy sauce with dill, but like the vinegar onion cucumber salad, too. How do you make yours? Georgysmom, I'll sure be glad when you're home--miss you so much here!! I read in your other post about being tired of eating out and understand that feeling. Although I could use about a week of it right now. This hot weather makes me lose my appetite. Not that THAT would be a bad thing since I have 15 pounds to lose. Kathleen, we had rain sometime in the night and it was cool and breezy this morning. It felt wonderful, but warmed up fast. Hope you're feeling better. I had to turn the air on because it was making me feel a little queasy and knew I wouldn't sleep with it so hot. When I turned it on, it was 83 inside. Groan!

Rhizo, I'm working on writing up the recipe for the "Jamaican Jambalaya" but it is difficult since one of the steps was make a dish of roasted sweet potato, plantain and onion, eat half of it, refrigerate the rest overnight, and add that to the Jambalaya. For the most part though it involved cooking the ingredients in a large skillet, setting some aside, and cooking others, eventually adding more and more until they are all in the large skillet, then lower heat to a simmer until the rice is done. Cooking plantains however is easy. The hardest part is waiting until the plantains are ripe enough. They are usually greenish-yellow when you buy them, but i feel they are best when they are completely black on the outside, which can take a couple of weeks after you buy them. Once they are ripe, it couldn't be easier. Lightly score the peel lengthwise, remove peel and slice plantain into 1/4 thick slices. Add oil to a large skillet, heat over medium high heat until oil shimmers, add plantain discs, cook until browned, flip, and cook the other side until browned. Remove to plate with paper towel. Lightly salt and serve.

DH and I went to a financial planning meeting we were invited to by our banker. It was in a local restaurant. Appetizers: platter of chicken satay, boiled shrimp and tuna tartar with tomatoes on flatbread. Salad: I had the house salad, mixed greens, goat cheese, cranberries and a cooked pear.( DH had the caesar.) Entree: Filet Mignon Dessert was an assortment but i just took the vanilla ice cream.

It was a really long day for me. Left home at 7:30 and didn't get back until 6:00. (Playaway golf group and the course was an hour and 1/2 away.) Had a great lunch at a great restaurant.....It's not all about golf. LOL I had a delicious Caesar salad topped with the best fried oysters and there were plenty of them! DH can polish off the rest of yesterday's take out. I'm not hungry. Howdy from me to Patti, too. Miss you gal!!!!!

Chilly day today. I had a bowl of chicken/vegetable/barley soup. Baked some frozen fish filets. Dipped them in some leftover McD's hot mustard sauce.

I just noticed that I called out Party, not to look as I was using hamburger tonite. I meant to say Prairie, as she was saying that her hubby takes hamburger out of the freezer each day. I didn't realize that the edit button disappeared after a period of time.

Audrey, we love grilled asparagus. Is it available already where you are?

Raven every once in a while I crave tacos and taco salad. You made me crave it again.

Gadgets, I'm out of fish, and it's something that we need to eat more often. Mind you, I took hubby out for fish and chips last Sunday and it cost me $50!!

Pam I found some neat recipes for thighs that I'm going to try this weekend. I finally convinced hubby that thighs taste good!

Satine, Greek food and good friends. A perfect match.

GM, you eat so well, either out or at home.

Rhizo, it's a change not to see you post your healthy rice and beans, quinoa mix etc. Your pizza sounds great. Did you put it on the barbecue?

Jasdip, lol....I don't have rice and grains that often, do I? We don't eat white potatoes but once or twice a year and pasta rarely, so it is our go-to starch, I guess.

Nope, the pizza went into the oven..I made a tomato sauce with garlic and it smelled sooooo good baking.

I'm going to fix chi83's polenta recipe tonight and I'm excited.

jasdip, I read this last night and stopped cold at the warning for me.... I couldn't figure out WHY I shouldn't look -- unless you realized that you've never seen me post about any meal with hamburger in it. lol! :O)
