      I had a banquet on a bun today, bbq hot dog and burger with a nice crispy large salad.

      There used to be a greasy spoon on Rush Street in Chicago called Banquet on a Bun, you could catch a glimpse of it in the movie Risky Business. The best they had was a Virginia ham on the bone that they would slice off on order, grilled ham and cheese there truly was a poor man's banquet.

        I got it wrong (half right), but that's why I refrigerate everything.

          Missed it too. But I'm not a cheese guy.

              First I made a batch of my sandwich/burger buns. Then I made "one bowl lemon brownies" from Jennie Jones (recipe and video is available on youtube). I made a couple of changes. First, I used limes as that is what I had on hand. The recipe calls for a cup of AP flour, I used 1/2 cup and 1/2 cup of white whole wheat. Also reduced the sugar from 3/4 cup to 1/2 cup. I found that to be plenty since it calls for a glaze. Not sure they should be called "brownies" but it came out pretty good and I'll make it again.

                  I made tostodas and salad again.

                    I deboned a rotisserie chicken and made chicken tostodas. I topped them with round slices of provolone, they covered the tostodas very nicely. Then I put them in the oven on convection mode to melt the cheese. Had a green salad with it.

                      I got it through the process of elimination but if it wasn't multiple choice, I wouldn't have gotten it.

                        Personally, I like a vinegary taste to cole slaw.

                        I do too. The problem was that it turned the dressing very thin (OK, I probably used more lemon juice than called for too, I didn't measure it, I just squeezed the lemon into it) so I had to add extra mayo to thicken it up a little. That resulted in leftover dressing.

                        Today I had leftover beef stew that I made yesterday, had it with a green salad.

                          I waited out the rain, fired up the bbq grill and did hot dogs and hamburgers. Had it with cole slaw made with a simple dressing I got from Allrecipes. (mayo, sugar, lemon juice, vinegar - I used apple cider vinegar - and black pepper. That turned out real nice even though I used more vinegar than called for.

                            I second guessed myself and missed it.

                              BakerAunt, as far as olive oil v canola, I understand canola has more omega 6 fats whereas olive oil has more omega 3. Omega 3 is a healthier fat than omega 6. So that is something to consider too.

                                I had no idea. I had to google it.

                                  I heard about that on the late morning news. Since it's not decaf, I'll have to pass.
