Whats For Dinner/Supper ?

[TeePee]

I think it's the dressing. The closest I have found to the dressing you get in restaurants is balsamic and olive oil dressing. You can buy it in supermarkets but, here is a recipe I am going to try. I have made something similar before, without the mustard and shallot and it was pretty good, especially with some ground up garlic added.

Ingredients​

• 5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 shallot, very finely chopped
• ¼ tsp salt and a pinch of cracked black pepper
• honey or agave nectar, to sweeten (optional)

Method​

1. Pour all of the ingredients into a jam jar for which you have a lid and screw the lid on tightly.
2. Shake the jar vigorously for 30 seconds, then taste and add a drizzle of honey or agave if you prefer. Store covered in the fridge for up to three days before using.
3. Shake the contents of the jar again just before pouring over your salad.

Thanks! I'll have to try that.

It's going to be a ribeye steak, baked potato with butter, sour cream and chives and grilled asparagus.

Chicken Piccata, roasted broccoli, ...chicken is defrosting now. May have to use my Miracle Thaw if it doesn't hurry up.

A taco inspired sundae or Buddha bowl.

1/2 pound breakfast sausage
1/2 minced yellow onion
1 10 ounce package of frozen corn kernels
1 4 ounce can of hot chopped green chilies

Fry sausage and onion, add corn and green chilies, season to taste.

Scoop into a bowl and top with a couple tablespoons of hot chunky salsa and a dollop of light sour cream.

You can add a packet of taco seasonings to the meat mixture, a can of drained kidney beans, etc… and also add some shredded cheese as a topping.

These scoop and nuke concoctions are becoming more common in my rotation.

I make a very similar concoction using a bag of fresh coleslaw mix instead of the corn.

Chicken Potato Bake

This reminds me of Chicken Scarpariello or Chicken Murphy variations appear on local buffet tables in this area quite often.

I’m thinking a small pizza and an order of onion rings. Delivered of course.

Cooking is a passion for me, but I'm cheating tonight and having this with sweet potatoes.
