Easter leftovers. Pork tenderloin stuffed with garlic (12 cloves) and rosemary, butternut squash seasoned with cumin, cayenne and coriander (cubed, sprayed with olive oil and baked) and green beans with garlic and basil. I tried to make gravy but almond flour as a thickening agent was a pour substitute for wheat flour or corn starch and it was too watery.

After a big restocking trip at the grocery store I made a grilled tenderloin steak with sesame sauce, truffle oil sauteed mini bella mushrooms, carrot slaw and lemon grilled asparagus. My most elaborate meal in a while.

The last time I made them, I did them in the slow cooker, but put it in the garage. When my partner got home, he wondered why the garage smelled like garbage.Tonight I'm making tagliatelle with prosciutto, parm and butter. I hope the aroma is a bit better.

Last night I made pastitsio for the first time. I didn't have canned diced tomatoes so I blanched, peeled and diced fresh tomatoes. Actually my goal was using up the case of fresh tomatoes I overbought and this fit the bill. Bechamel sauce goes on top of pastitsio which I also made for the first time and I was licking the spatula. Butter does make everything taste better.

For lunch I made a potato and leek soup in the soup maker. Wife like it, daughter preferred the previous attempt that was a bit runnier.
For dinner I used left over roasted chicken to make a chicken tikka masala. I confess I used a jar for the sauce, I dont have the patience to make curry from scratch. Maybe one day. Sided with boiled basmati rice and a plain naan (also store bought).
