We had more of the black-eyed peas with rice, ham, and vegetables.
Italian Cook--The April fall appears to have left me undamaged, for which I am thankful.
BakerAunt, you fell? I don't remember reading about that. Hope you're doing better
I made yellow squash casserole AGAIN! This time I put sweet Italian sausage and peppers in it. It was very good. I don't want to see any more squash for a while. Lol
I have been snacking too much so it's pimento cheese and crackers. Yes that's a snack but I've done it all day .
Joan--I think that snacking dinners are great!
We had more black-eyed peas with rice and ham for Thursday night's dinner. I also made yogurt today.
Yesterday I made pork tenderloin on the BBQ. Had it with a little spaghetti, green beans and mushrooms. Tonight was a repeat.
We had steaks again, buying 3 at a time is cheaper but makes the meals repetitive. I did them sous vide this time, just to see how it worked. Well enough that I'll probably do it again but unlike eye of round sous vide is not going to become my go-to method for steak.
I made another Margherita pizza today, using the Neapolitan dough recipe in the KAF pizza book. The fresh mozzarella still made the top a bit soggy, but putting it under the broiler helped. Pressing the cheese between paper towels might help remove some of the water.
This is a much better dough for that style of pizza.
This one was still sort of sloppy, but good enough that we're looking forward to the second one on Sunday, probably using a somewhat drier mozzarella (not fresh, since I'm out of it.)
I'm enjoying your King Arthur pizza book reviews, Mike.
I made chicken broth on Friday from bones accumulated from bone-in chicken breasts in the freezer. I needed the freezer space, but now I need to store the broth.
We continue eating the black-eyed peas with rice and ham. Usually, I would alternate with other dinners, but we were able to buy a turkey at a pretty good price (99 cents per pound) during our big shopping trip outside town on Tuesday. It is thawing in the refrigerator and should be ready for roasting by Sunday.
Yesterday I made a stir fry with leftover pork tenderloin, green beans, sugar snap peas, carrot and onion. Had it over rice.
We had salami and melon and if we're still hungry in an hour I'll do a pizza. Might have leftover pizza for a change.
At friends today and she made us the best avocado bowl with chunks of avocado, broiled shrimp, tomatoes and red onion diced and drizzled with Ranch dressing and a sprinkle of chili powder.Delicious!
