What did you cook today?

No pic, but I made a pizza for dinner. Pepperoni, tomatoes, onions and chili flakes. And a spring mix salad of baby greens with strawberries and red onions, with a homemade olive oil and apple cider vinegar dressing. And a couple of teaspoons of chia seed on top. Yum!

 

Turkey, but it's not finished yet/

 

Toast and then I ordered pizza. The pizza was a good idea in theory.....

 

eggs over easy, pancakes, and sausage. It was a breakfast for dinner kind of day

 

left over bbq chicken and left over ziti with sausage...mmmm

 

chicken breast chunks marinated in bbq sauce overnight and now lightly bacon wrapped cooking in the oven

*I'm trying to eat low carb, high fat-hence the two meats*

*my kids loved it! ages 16 and 8

 

I didn't get a pic, I didn't have my camera with me (!!) but I made a quick shrimp garlic pasta that turned out great. I had some leftover spaghetti noodles and a brochette of shrimps that I couldn't get to bbq’ing so I slid them off the skewer and sautéed them quickly in olive oil and a bit of salt, and butter, garlic, mushrooms, tarragon, basil, diced up a few slices of tomato and poured it all over the heated noodles, a few turns of the pepper mill and voila! Sometimes the meals you fuss over the least turn out the best.

 

spoiled myself tonight with a tender bbq steak and microwaved a potato to go with it

the meat prices are ridiculous but i did a lot of work today and made some money so i gave myself a bonus

 

Garlic Parmesan Baked Fries!

 

For supper I made a nice roast crackling pork belly on rice. Buk Choy and plain steamed rice. Mixed together with a nice hoysin sauce. =]

 

I made Pork Chops with Granny Smith Apples in the crock-pot, and had cooked cabbage, and honey carrots with them.

 

I cooked up some onions and zucchini in a frying pan, and ate it with a pre-roasted chicken. It was delish.

 

/burned Jamaican mango pork chops baked potatoes, burned mushrooms and burned green beans ,..

Ive only had the grill for a little while... ;0

 

Steak, calamari and veges.

 

Ha ha! As I was reading I thought it was some new recipe, like blackened fish. Did the potatoes get charred too? You don't want them feeling left out.

 

pork chops on the bbq

they were on sale last week so it was a big pack i cooked them all and now have enough for tomorrow lunch and supper

 

Ive noticed the pork has been very cheap lately .. i got 30lbs of it a few weeks ago.1$lbs. Im still picking up ribs and other chops at low prices.

my potatoes were safe inside their skins and foil..

 

This morning, I saw a pic of a pork loin with the granny smith slices stuck in it. It was on then! I knew I had to have that tonight.

 

there was something on the news here a while back about pork prices going way down due to the US having so much we can import it cheap now (apparently there was some kind of sickness here and we were short for a while on our own farms)
