What are you Cooking the Week of August 4, 2024?

Joan--My mother was a big fan of cold pizza for breakfast! Your pizza looks wonderful, and I approve of ALL the toppings!

I made minestrone on Wednesday for lunch for today and into the week. I have not made it in ages and had forgotten how good it is, especially with fresh green beans from our garden.

For dinner, I made chicken salad from the rest of the roasted chicken breast meat. We had it on the buns I baked yesterday, along with more of the green bean, cherry tomato, and feta salad.

I had a t-bone steak, but saved about half of the meat to put on salads, Diane had the rest of her salad from yesterday.

That pizza looks wonderful, Joan. I can even smell it! All my favorite ingredients.

For dinner tonight, we had ribs and corn on the cob cooked on the grill, and potato salad I made this morning.

I made a batch of custard tonight.

I made yogurt on Thursday, a day early, as I will not have time to make it tomorrow. I also made green bean, cherry tomato, and feta salad again. We had it for dinner with the rest of the chicken salad on more of the rolls.

[Mike Nolan]

We had taco salads using the leftover T-bone steak meat from yesterday as the protein.

[Joan Simpson]

I had a hamburger I needed to cook and pickles.

That pizza looks delicious, Joan, it's one of Nature's perfect foods!

I can't believe it's Thursday already. On Sunday I made steak and hot dogs on the BBQ. So, Sunday was a steak and a hot dog with rice and bbq beans (from a can) and a salad. Monday was leftover steak and hotdog. Tuesday was an Italian sausage with pasta, green beans and a corn on the cob. Yesterday was rotisserie chicken, pasta with sauteed mushrooms and green beans. Tonight was rotisserie chicken, mushrooms, green beans with carrot, and some potato salad.

I made the panzanella salad and it was ok but not worth all the effort. It involved a lot of cutting and slicing and weighing and measuring and squishing (garlic) and washing of dishes and utensils. Maybe I should have found short cuts. Nyt recipes are always involved!

[BakerAunt]

Navlys--I refuse to squish garlic. Instead, I break out the garlic powder.

We had another easy meal on Friday of ham sandwiches on buns and green bean, tomato, and feta salad.

I heard that Vermont is getting a lot of rain, so I hope Chocomouse and her husband are ok.

[Mike Nolan]

I had a tomato and salami sandwich, Diane had beany-weenie

BLTs here.

Will made Ina's chicken noodle soup with half home made stock and rotisserie chicken. We had his semolina sourdough bread as toast - it has a great texture. Soup seemed counter intuitive for this awful hot weather but it was just right.

[chocomouse]

I made a veggie lasagna tonight, with zucchini, yellow squash, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and spinach, with alfredo sauce and cheeses.
