What Are We Eating For 2014 ..

For tonight, I am making a concoction in the slow cooker..
I bought some shoulder steak that I will sear first and then cube it and put it in the cooker with some minced garlic, white wine, stock, and a good dash of worcester sauce, on high for about 6 to 7 hours ...
At the 4 hour mark, I will add some veggies such as wedged onions, sliced carrots, mini potatoes cut in half, celery, and some frozen peas as well as some herbs and spices.......

Comfort food for a wintery day.......

The garlic sauce or honey garlic sauce I use is a commercial one bought in stores and is made by VH which is a Chineese sauce..

I have made my own several times but the bought one is so simple and just as good as the homemade one..


PS..... NO SECRET !!!!!
 
To me!
however, you have encouraged me to make casseroles again, I hadn't made one for ages, and it was lovely!
going to try apple and cinnamon bread soon;the apple cake I made recently fell to bits!
tasted ok though.
 
What I love about casseroles is they are a one dish meal..
In most cases, they have the veggie, protein, and starch all in one..
Although I make them often, they are NEVER the same as the last one.. Always something different to put in them...

Leftovers often taste better reheated....

I so agree, I make enough for two or three days, and it just gets better!
forget about pavlovas in the microwave; the originators (?) have said no!
 
Tonight we had Santola King Crab Legs with hot butter and cocktail sauce, French bread and Foster's beer on the side. We bought extra crab legs when they were on sale, have one more meal of them in the freezer.
 
Last night for supper I made a meatloaf.. Comfort food..
450g of minced chicken, one egg, 1/2 cup of chopped mushrooms, 1/2 a yellow onion finely chopped, one very good dash of ketchup, some grated mozz. cheese, one cup of stock, and one box of "stove top stuffing"
Baked in a loaf pan at 375 till the sides pull away and the top starts to brown..

Veggies: Steamed veggies all together in the steamer at the same time..
Red pepper chunks, mushrooms, broccoli, red onion wedged, and celery..
Steamed for just a few minuites to keep them crispy ......


Princess isn't the greatest veggie eater, but she finished all the veggies this time.....
 
For tonight, I am totally bewildered as what to make..

I have in the freezer a package of frozen (white) fish of some sort ??
Salmon fillets..
Marinated salmon cubes..
Minced turkey..
Minced chicken..
Chicken drumsticks..
Chicken legs..
Chicken thighs both B/S and skin & bone in..
Chicken breasts B/S..
Veal sausages..
Shoulder steak for a stew..
Moose meat..

And I have NO idea what to make for supper tonight.. As if I have nothing in the house ....


What if I take the white fish, (thaw of course) put in the food processor with an egg, dill, spices, and some bread crumbs.. Make into patties and fry in a skillet .. That could be done very easily and it will be a good main dish..
I could make a sauce using mayo, hot sauce, and ketchup as a dipping sauce....
 
Sounds good.....or you could make it into a fish pie; fish, hard- boiled egg, a sauce, topped with breadcrumbs.
 
Tonight (Thursday) I made chicken thighs B/S in a sweet and sour sauce in the skillet..
I cooked them slowly to absorb the taste of the sweet & sour..

Steamed broccoli and steamed mini spuds, smashed down, with EVOO sprinkled on them with some thyme and S&P and under the broiler till browned..
 
For tonight (Saturday) I made a wok supper.. I diced up a chicken breast, marinated it in a white wine sauce with some garlic, honey, ginger, and hot sauce.....

Into the wok with some garlic, wedged red onions, broccoli, mushrooms, celery, and orange sweet pepper...
The liquid was white wine...

It turned out to be sooooo good we ate the whole thing !!!!
 
Last night I had a peanut butter sandwich. Today at lunch a barbecue sandwich. Tonight I fast.
 
I have made another large casserole today....remember our weather!
beef, onions and mushrooms as a base, with added peas beans, broccoli, carrots and a little red pepper.

It smells good, being slow-cooked at the moment..
