What did you cook today?

roasted potatoes; roasted delicato squash; salad with a lettuce mix from my farmshare, tomato, carrot, goat cheese, homemade dressing; (pre)breaded frozen haddock.

turned out pretty well!

 

It was a challenging walk today, if that's what you want to call it. More like a trying-to-stay-on-my-feet. Within 5 minutes it went from calm and sunny to pouring rain. The wind started whipping the trees around, and me as well! I thought I was going to end up in one of those trees. Or in the lake. I was a tad fearful for my life. A nice guy stopped his car to ask if I wanted a lift home. But I was only a few steps away at that point. He was quite the looker, I should have got in and navigated him around the block a few times, tell him that I was disoriented. lol So barely any exercise and I was soaked to the bone by the time I got in. Crap. But I lifted my spirits with a treat for dinner. A fig and port salametti with a peppers Brie. Yum! I couldn't tell if the peppers (that's all it listed in the ingredients) was cracked peppercorns or pieces of hot dried capsicum. But it was nice and spicy.

I could so almost inhale that right now!

 

It was sooo good! I love the flavour. I just realized I didn't do much cooking in that meal. I guess I should have posted in the eating thread. I'm so easily confused. lol

 

Hello,

don't worry. It doesn't matter much if I drool in this thread or the other .

I had more today, Aeri.

 

I ordered in and it was good. I am posting a picture as I did have to pick up the phone and order it.

 

I finally got hubby to the store. I made spaghetti with meat sauce on egg noodles. He wanted egg noodles because they are easier for him.

I haven't eaten yet. I like to rest after I cook and clean up all but what I'm eating out of.

 

Made chicken fajitas tonight with all the fixings. Good and easy to do.

 

I made that root vegetable salad I had mentioned the other day. I really liked it! I got out my mandoline slicer and shaved kohlrabi, zucchini, golden beets, striped beets (Chioggia), and fennel. I added snow peas and asparagus, but they'd be too difficult with the mandoline, you just chop the snow peas thin into julienne slices. The asparagus you shave with a peeler, the pieces come out nice and curled.




I added fresh chopped dill and salt and pepper, then grated some lemon zest over the lot and squeezed in the juice of the lemon with a bit of olive oil. Tossed et voila!

 

Hot dogs with mustard and coleslaw and potato chips tonight. Lazy dinner. A friend got me a Sci-Fi B-Movie package, I love those crazy movies. First one was an old Japanese movie with requisite swooning and screaming female, over the top frantic score, and out of sync dubbing. Next up is Attack of the 50 ft Woman ('58 version). Woman gets revenge on cheating husband when she grows to gigantic proportions after an alien encounter. Should be a scream. Perfect movies to accompany the hot dogs. Maybe I should make popcorn too!

 

I cooked apples, with a sprinkle of cinnamon on them.

 

I've got a Cowboy Casserole in the oven, another in the freezer, and Mexican Chicken in the crock pot.

Cowboy Casserole is awesome. I almost thing I like it better without the cream of mushroom soup. I ran out of tater rounds so I had to put steak fries on the top. So good.
