Yummy!

It was. :) And I discovered I had some Fritos, so could have Frito Pie. Win-win.

I have never had Frito Pie.

Then you didn't grow up with school lunches in small town West Texas, then, I suspect :)

Saw it on a Travel Channel show - in that version, the dish was served in the opened frito bag :)

LOL, no, I didn't.

Yup. A quintessential west Texas gas station lunch :)

My chili is better, though.

I think you can get something like it at Sonic if there's one nearby.

The only one that is remotely close is apparently horrible. :D Perhaps I'll ask for a recipe for it too.

I find everything at Sonic too salty. Frito pie is naturally salty. It could be disastrous.

:D I just don't find Sonic's food enjoyable at all.

Before I was aware of my lactose intolerance, I used to enjoy their milkshakes. I had to stop going though after one of my kids said something to the order microphone that embarrassed me (and that's saying a lot).

:D Mr. Kipper has never embarrassed me that much at a drive-thru, although at one point, we were waiting for anyone to acknowledge us for a while, and using his best bandito voice said, "Hello. We are here to rob you. Please give us all of your money." Thank goodness the employees laughed. :D

The special dessert of the month was a "brownie blast". He pronounced brownie as "brown eye".

:D Ok, I can understand why you'd be embarrassed.

Used to love Sonic back when they had a much simpler menu. I think there were only like three versions of burgers you could order. My favorite was the #2

Heating up my weekly pasta dish. I make a whole box of pasta, add in a jar of sauce, several sausages and spices on Monday and put it in the fridge and portion out as needed.

Homemade chicken pot pie.

Homemade whole wheat gnocchi with homemade focaccia

BBQ!
 

Red beans and rice and a cold glass of milk.

Some chicken with coucous meal AA is going to serve me on tonight's DFW-RDU flight.

Takeout for dinner tonight, Singapore rice noodles with Shanghai spring roll on the side.

Came across a recipe for zucchini clafouti in the paper a couple of weeks ago and made it for dinner tonight. What appealed to me was that you roast the zucchini with chopped shallots before assembling. With a salad with red wine vinaigrette, makes a nice light summer supper.

Had that dish twice last week on AA. The chicken breast was OK, but the general impression was "One chicken flew over the coucous' nest"

:D

Nice summer dinner: flank steak with chimichurri sauce and corn on the cob.

Ha! Well played

I went out for two for one rolls at Vine Sushi and Thai tonight with a friend. Lots of ingredients, lots of fun.

Summer food is the best.
Grilled salmon, grilled fennel and grilled onions, cherry tomatoes with mozzarella, basil and balsamic.

Mrs Clint Bint made a sublime shepherd's pie tonight.
Lean minced lamb,scallions,onion,carrot,crushed garlic,petit pois and a Marmite gravy topped with cheesy,garlic mashed potato baked to a golden brown crust.

Top scoff.

While I agree, the high temperatures dropped out of the 90's this weekend and I immediately started looking at recipes for stews, soups and chili. :D

I just got invited to Baci, my favorite restaurant in San Deigo, tonight! Is it dinner time yet??

Haha. You'll be sorry! Not so fast.

Last night's dinner for labor day : grilled ribeye steaks with grilled onions, grilled corn with mayo/parmigiano/butter /herb spread, broccoli with cheese. Baby lettuce salad to start. Creme caramel frozen yogurt with dulce de Leche and Maldon salt. All yummy but way more rich food than I am used to eating. Leftovers tonight!

I arrived home this evening after my traditional fast quart of ale which stretched to a half gallon in my local hostelry with hopes high of a sumptuous repast laid on by Mrs Clint Bint.
It is after all Thursday evening which in my book constitutes the early weekend and all the excesses this brings after an abstemious Mon-Wed health regime.
You can imagine how my heart sank when I espied some grilled chicken,mashed potato,carrots and broccoli on offer as part of Mrs B's attempt to administer a healthy diet to the pair of us.
Not even a smudge of fatty gravy adorned this pathetic offering.
I feigned delight and effusiveness while simultaneously distracting her attention by not eating as she announced she was off to bed for an early night to watch TV after her culinary endeavours. ( You can imagine how I smirked privately at this point. )
As soon as the coast was clear and the extractor fan on high I leaped into action.
The chicken was flung at the dog,caught in mid-air and wolfed down even before I'd got the frying pan with olive oil at the perfect temperature for some chopped onions,two sausages,the spuds,broccoli and carrots mashed into a bubble and squeak with an egg fried to perfection and laid out on two slices of toasted rye bread.
Man,that sucker was superb and registering much higher on the cholesterol level than the original intended dish.
So the way I figure it is this.
Mrs Clint Bint is happy because I'm eating healthy,I'm happy because I'm not and the dog gets an unexpected chicken bonus.
Tonight has been a win-win situation whichever way you look at it.

^:D^:D
Mrs. B must sleep like the dead. How does someone not wake up when the delicious smell of onions frying is wafting through the house?

The master bedroom is in the west wing and the kitchen in the east,plus an extractor fan easily disperses all evidence of my late-night munchies.^

oh. My house doesn't have wings. :(

Leftover combo (pork, chicken, shrimp) fried rice.

Potato soup. A wonderful soup for the chillier days.

Salmon patty (or burger depending on your definition) but no bun.

1/2 twice baked potato with avocado (instead of sour cream - still have the cheese though)

3 asparagus stalks and 4 brussel spouts (broiled in olive oil and sprinkled - generoulsly - with garlic salt).

Biscuit with butter.

I really like cooking.
