What's for Dinner ~Tuesday March 27th
Alloo!
I still have some yummy beef stew and a bunch of lasagna in the fridge, so it will probably be leftovers for us tonight!
What's for dinner where you are?
= new reply since forum marked as read
i have some canned pumpkin and bell peppers in the fridge that need used, so i figured i'd make a soup. i roasted the peppers last night and i'm going to cook some sweet potato and carrot and puree it with some coconut milk. i'm trying a wheat no-knead loaf today, we'll see how that turns out. i'm kind of making this meal up as i go along 
i've felt like i'm in a bit of a rut with my cooking, so i'm messing around with new things and new flavors. i love cooking adventures
Another problem is, I just can't find some of the ingredients I need/want out here in the woods 
.
Coconut milk should be really good with the veggies.
definitely making it again
I'd love to see it.
i based it on this recipe:
http://www.food.com/recipe/pumpkin-chickpea-soup-32070
i added a 1/4 tsp each chili powder and cinnamon and a tsp (i think) of yellow curry and cooked the onion and garlic with the spices for a few minutes. then i dumped in a carton of veggie stock and simmered a diced sweet potato and a couple diced carrots until tender. then in went a can of pumpkin, the chickpeas, a couple chopped roasted peppers and a can of coconut milk and i ran the stick blender through it.
i'm going to double the chili powder and cinnamon next time and add another carrot. i think i'm going to tell my dad i want a blender for my birthday, it wasn't nearly as smooth as i wanted to be by the time i was tired of using the handheld. i'm lazy
I don't have the pumpkin or coconut milk in the house or I would try a batch now.
Must get some soon!
hope you enjoy when you get to it
No, that's not what we are eating, that's my battle cry for the groceries that DH will be bringing back later this afternoon.
I gave him a list, as usual, but instructed him to look at what's fresh and what's on sale and buy things he would like me to fix.
I usually don't trust him to do this, but it should be fun!
wanders in with something unexpected. It can be quite a surprise sometimes. He's a fan of what he calls the "Used Meat" section. (Discount area) They tend to mark stuff up for the tourists here, so he likes shopping the after weekend mark downs.
Good to hear he's up and around again.
salad.
Hope you're feeling better .
Haven't felt really well all winter.
Your salad sounds really good to me. Fresh with great flavors!
I think that'll be it. Maybe some sliced cheese on the side, berries for a finish.
Baked panko-coated chicken breasts, a spot of lime-enchanced cole slaw, mashed potatoes, green beans cooked with crisp bacon and onion. Crusty roll. Mr. Pup had a "Boston" hotdog (comes with beans and bloating) today at the new hot dog shack for lunch. He said he wasn't hungry, but he cleaned his plate. Simple but satisfying.
I grate a little peel into the mix and use lime juice as the acid. All is glorious in my world today. Hope yours is full of good surprises!
A lot of us are getting one more run of cold weather, so it makes sense! Hope you enjoyed yours.
I'm feeling much better today but still not 100%. DH got up this morning with the same symptoms I had yesterday.
I'm glad to hear that you're interested in food again yourself. It's a terrible place to be for a person who loved to eat good food.
