We had grilled swordfish steaks w a side of mercury poisoning for @hollydolly.......jk, thanks for caring! Instant pot short grain brown rice and a salad w home made creamy ranch dressing.
I flavor the sword w garlic and onion powder, s+p, dijon mustard and olive oil.
Got a small batch of ratatouille going for tomorrow or the next day.....it's always better the 2nd day for sure.
Following is a random recipe for Ranch dressing for the uninitiated. I use a ranch dressing spice base from Pensey's w mayo instead of olive oil and plain yoghurt.

Many moons ago I had a chicken liver recipe that I truly enjoyed... lost it and haven't had them since. We're talking the late '70s or early '80's! Gonna toss this out there in case anyone recognizes it... I've not been successful in finding the exact recipe online either.
What I remember most was that they were in a medium or thick white sauce that had cheddar cheese melted in it. For some reason I'm thinking nutmeg, but... not sure that would fit, so that part could be wrong. Fresh spinach was also involved.
Chicken Livers Florentine in Bechamel Sauce?
It seems to me that chicken livers can be substituted for chicken breast, accented with plenty of fresh spinach and experiment with the amount of cheese in the Bechamel. Maybe a bit of bacon.
I never met a recipe that I was unwilling to alter, except for baked goods.

Oh that's exciting! I hadn't thought of subbing the livers for other chicken pieces but by golly, I think it would work just fine. Thank you for that, @Eupher !

A pasta bake for tonight with peas on the side. I think I'll do some mandarin oranges with it.

Frozen pizza from a New Haven pizzeria. First time I've seen it was on my last shopping trip. Hoping it's ok.....
Red beans and rice (haven't made the rice yet).
No tasso, so I used bacon. No pickled pork shoulder, so I skipped it and just spiked the beans with a bit of red wine vinegar. Plenty of andouille sausage, though, and enough garlic to keep all the vampires away.

Like just about all retirement communities, resident surveys give culinary the lowest marks of all the services that we are provided with. But. man, do they make the best chili or what?!
