What's for Dinner, Mon., Dec. 8, 2014

[NJCher]

I have checked out this cookbook from the library called Stuffed, which is about all kinds of foods that one can stuff, like stuffed meatballs, stuffed peppers, etc. I've been watching the writer's work on his blog for awhile.

I'm hoping to find something in there to fix. I have some nice globe zucchinis that would be great stuffed with something....have to look a little more carefully to see what.

1. Tofu stir fry.

I have a ton of cabbage to get rid of.

2. Short ribs.

Cooked them with shallots and carrots.

3. Chili, cornbread and pomegranate seeds

Our weather is great, at least as compared with some other places, but cool enough for chili.

4. French dip steak sangwich

with mushrooms and onions. A small salad on the side.

5. teriyaki beef.

(ie, stew meat marinated in teriyaki sauce, then braised, I think it's called. (Fried, but in more liquid?))

Made another batch of jelly tonight, but I need to sterilize more jars to finish off the black raspberry juice.

6. yeah, braised

If I do stew meat, I always do it over a very slow flame. Takes awhile, but it's much more tender.

Love teriyaki.

Well, I couldn't find anything for which I had all the ingredients in my cookbook, so I just went with some chili I had in the 'frig. It was delicious and it's in the 20s here, so it hit the spot.

To go with it, I made red coleslaw. I used a little chopped red onion, raisins that I had steeped in hot water, and hazelnuts. Copped out with a ready-made salad dressing (Marzetti's), but it was still good.

7. Turnip coladas

I have a lot of bananas and turnip greens to use. I'm in month 9 of the eating on two dollars a day deal and financed my groceries this week and next by turning a small profit buying vodka and coconut vodka cocktails for the rebates.

8. leftover pork chop and a potato

sliced the potato most of the way through, drizzled it with olive oil and sprinkled with salt.

9. shhhh....don't tell the Jewish group.

I made bacon-wrapped meatloaf.

10. Coming in late. I had those cheesy "smashed" potatoes. garlicky asparagus and a simple salad.

Just right.

12. Cher, I had a stuffed zucchini dish many years ago that had bread crumbs,

onions, and I think there were tiny shrimp, tomato sauce. Parmesan on top. I will see if I can dig out the recipe.
It was delicious.

13. I think it was an Epicurious recipe, but I cannot find it anywhere. Hope

you find something equally wonderful.

14. thanks!

I'll just copy those ingredients and do to taste. Sounds delicious!
