Pasta with fresh pesto made from basil grown in a pot outside the back door.

I smoked, over applewood and hickory, spare ribs, short ribs, chicken, and sausage. Hybrid Memphis style (dry rub smoked for the first 3 hours) and Kansas City style (my homemade barbecue sauce after that for the next 3-6 hours.

Accompanied by barbecue beans, homemade cornbread, biscuits, and apple crisp. There was a salad in there too somewhere.

Ham biscuits and sushi.

Sort of fusion.

Had to find this thread as I have taken up Italian cooking. Tonight, I'll be making chicken piccata. Last week, I made veal marsala which was so easy and so utterly delicious. Giada's Everyday Italian cookbook makes it simple. Yum!

Jack's 99 cent store has these terrific curry sauces (Tiger, imported from the UK) selling for, yep, 99 cents - sort of like Hamburger Helper - but really delicious - make some chicken with that and some rice, and there you go. :D

Chicken soup, very boring but I am recovering from a pesky cold.

Two very thin sirloin strips cooked absolutely plain, then seasoned on my plate. My ex will take custody of the cats on Friday and if they want a sliver of steak tonight, they'll get it.

Gotta love Jacks. Just bought toothpicks and a coffee scoop each for 99¢. :)

Are there places near you that make chicken in the pot? We always called it Jewish penicillin. The BEST for colds. Feel better soon.

Thanks for the tip, I just looked this up and there are a couple of places close by that have this on the menu. It's going to be lunch tomorrow for sure!

Italian marinated chicken, roasted pepper cauliflower, and grilled asparagus

It was a nice evening! About 35 degrees F! So we grilled some fresh burgers! :p

Spring is in the air!

Oh good! Glad to help. :)

Oscar Mayer turkey franks

Open face bacon, egg and cheddar on a toasted whole wheat sandwich thin.

" What's for dinner ? " is the first thing my kids say walking through door every single day after school.
Not even a " hi Dad. "
I love it.
Tonight is their favourite - Thai seafood noodles with roast garlic chicken oyster thighs.

Yup. They are the Real Deal when it comes to 99 Cent stores. I sometimes go to no-name 99 stores in the boroughs, and the prices are even HIGHER than the supermarket. And I'm like, "give me a break, I can get this for less than half @ Jack's!" :D If you hit it just right on a good day, you can get some really premium stuff almost for free. ;)

I made some matzah ball soup for someone that had a bad cold a few month ago. Mmmm.

I did not even realize oysters had legs, much less that the thighs were edible. :D

I just called the butcher to chop up some sirloin this afternoon. A big helping of steak tartare sounds yummy!

Talk about a wonderful thing to do. I love matzo ball soup!

Weisswurst tonight with cucumber salad. :)

Grilled sirloin and asparagus, mixed corn and black beans ... Tim Ferris's slow-carb diet.

booze.

last night, had, caesar salad to start, prime rib medium rare au jus, baked potato, and cheesecake with cherry sauce for dessert.

I laughed.

Last night, I made myself eggs benedict. Every once in a while, I get a major hankering for 'em. I'd probably make it more often if it weren't for the time it takes to make hollandaise from scratch, the number of pots and pans used, and the resulting mess/cleanup.

Actually, I quite enjoy making hollandaise.

Along with it... Jack on the rocks.

Chicken w/ salsa and cheese slow cooked in the crockpot with homemade fried shells and chips. good basketball watching food.

I'm going to try out a cache of frozen food I recently discovered in a freezer I didn't know was in use... if that doesn't go well; either chinese takeout or an MRE (I've never used a flameless heatpack before). This could be an interesting evening.

Order some Chinese and save the MRE for Doomsday. :eek::p

I'm going to be brining some chicken breasts for the Weber grill tonight.

Seafood gumbo with okra, crab, crawfish, and rice on the side.

Alaskan Pollack baked with a little dill and lemon juice and a sliced tomato with olive oil drizzled over it (I am currently a bachelor as wife is home in UK looking after her 90 year old mum)

Roast chicken, a little mexican corn dish I do, and white rice.

Tortilla soup. Panko crusted sauteed tilapia with fresh pineapple salsa, cilantro rice and a yet to be determined vegetable. Dessert is Dreyer's Girl Scout cookie thin mint ice cream.

Homemade chicken pot pie, assuming I can find the motivation to cook tonight.

We made individual cheese (gruyere) souffles and thawed and heated up some creamed turkey that I had made with Thanksgiving leftovers. Dug a hole in each of the souffles and poured the creamed turkey in. Yum.

Since we had a lot of eggs, we made chocolate souffles for dessert, with vanilla ice cream. We were pigs.

Grilled Smokehouse steaks with corn and black beans and stuffed jal. peppers.

Something light, I'm not sure what yet. Maybe some rice/eggplant ziploc baggie I put in the freezer. And boil an egg, with maybe some achar/pickles to go with.

Brownies in the oven, caramel sauce cooking on the stove, vanilla ice cream in the freezer, nitrous-oxide whipping cream in the frig.

:p:p:p

How much cheesecake does one have to eat before it counts as dinner? 1,000 calories worth... 2,000 calories... 3,000?

Homemade chicken pot pie, since I never did get around to preparing it a few weeks ago. Fresh chicken though. :)

That takes care of lunch for Mr. Kipper for the rest of the week, and I just need to figure out what we're having for dinner the rest of the week then. :)

I'm making chicken piccata tonight. :)

That sounds delicious. Would you share your recipe? :)

:) Sure. I'll send you a PM with it. It's pretty easy, and can be thrown together pretty quickly, both of which I appreciate when I'm cooking after work. :D
