What are we eating for ..... 2015

For supper tonight (Saturday) I tried something new..
I took 2 B/S chicken breasts and cubed them and put them in the slow cooker.. I then added a can of pineapple tidbits with the juice as well as 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce..
I then added some finely diced carrots, chunks of onions, frozen peas, and lots of mushrooms sliced thick..
On high for about 2 hours and then on low for another few hours..

I served it on a bed of elbows pasta...

Awsome !!!!!
 

Salmon fillets in the skillet..
Steamed cauliflower, mashed with sour cream and chives..
Couscous with onions and made with stock..
Chocolate pudding with heavy cream
Pot of tea

Breakfast: 3 egg omelette with turkey bacon for my Princess
3 scrambled eggs with diced Shnider red hots, red onions and sliced brown mushrooms covered with cheese and served on a bed of buttered toast..
Pot of folgers..
 
Chicken legs with back attached skin and fat removed, dry rub marinated and placed on my BBQ..

A fresh garden salad went perfect with those lovely legs.. My homemade dressing as well..
Frozen berries with yogurt was the desert..
 
Nephew didn't really like the curry dh made last night - too many veggies I think. :rolleyes: Tonight will be a vegetarian lasagne - made with Quorn mince instead of beef. Garlic bread, salad.
 
Weird day yesterday..
We went shopping for food and I forgot to take something out for supper so I bought a pound of minced chicken and made burgers on the BBQ.. Naturally we pigged out as we were starved by the time we got home..
Coleslaw and potato salad was the veggie.. I really got lazy on the veggies..
Sliced fresh tomatoes..
 
For dinner I had Scallops in a cream, mushroom and white wine sauce..served in a scallop dish...with a side serving of Sweet potatoes and asparagus ..that was about 2 hours ago...and 5 minutes ago I had a chocolate fudge brownie with a cuppa hot tea..:coffeelaugh:.
 
Pork steaks and peppers tonight, cooked together with a little soy sauce added and a mushroom rice with sliced yellow cherry tomatoes from the garden.Fig yoghurt after and coffee.
 
Supper tonight was B/S chicken thighs dry marinated and placed on my BBQ..
Way too hot to cook inside so I BBQ almost every meal..

I took the easy way out for veggies tonight..
Coleslaw (store bought)
Potato & egg salad (store bought)

Frozen blueberries with sour cream for dessert..

Breakfast: French toast ... I put sugar, a bit of cinnamon, and just a pinch of nutmeg in the mixture of eggs and heavy cream for the french toast..
 
Breakfast sounds delish! And adding nutmeg is so innovative (it's good for you too). Here, have a cup of my "365 Pleasant Morning Buzz" coffee with a lil almond milk in it.
 
Got into a sort of a mess at supper..
Made chicken drumsticks on the BBQ.. The problem I had was I ran out of propane and the chicken wasn't done, so I put them in the microwave to finish cooking..
They turned out very good but not the same as BBQ ing..

A fresh salad was the veggie..
 
Frozen chicken B/S breast on the BBQ frozen.
What I do is make up my dry rub and after each breast is covered with the mixture, I freeze them in small freezer bags so when I place them on the BBQ frozen, they taste marinated..

Steamed cauliflower with sour cream and chives..

Breakfast: 3 egg omelette with 2 slices of turkey bacon for my Princess..
3 eggs sunny up for me......
 
I made my homemade chicken burgers on the BBQ for supper.. They are always a big hit in our house..
Steamed broccoli with a garlic butter sauce..
Oh Steve, you make my mouth water with your menu , I'm affraid I'm no longer that adventurous with cooking
i love to sound of the garlic butter sauce I presume on the broccoli , can you post how you make it please ...I make chicken burgers, but not very often, when I do I mince the chicken my self then I know how much fat it contains
 
Chicken breasts covered in herby breadcrumbs And baked in the oven, with mashed creamy potatoes and peas and carrots.Fresh raspberries and a small scoop of vanilla ice cream.
 
I had lunch at a riverside restaurant today...



I had Chicken, Ham hock, wild mushroom and Madeira pie , with Borage honey roasted carrots, hispi cabbage and mashed potato

My o/h had Smoked Beech Mushrooms in a white wine & black garlic velouté with free range poached egg and pistou brioche
