Happy Birthday Ms. Wirth, hope you are having a great day!
Today I put a bottom round roast on the BBQ, made sure to use a minimal amount of charcoal so it would cook slow. I seasoned it with smoked paprika, some fresh ground pepper and a little salt. It turned out tasty.
I'm in the process of making cinnamon oat raisin bread. I haven't made raisin bread in about a year. This time I've added a little rye flour to it. I'm waiting for it to rise now. I just haven't decided what shape it will be, regular loaf, 3 strand braid, basket weave or buns.
Tonight I made Chicken-Roni (ground chicken with pasta sauce).
I made a loaf of bread today, 50% whole grain (rye and white whole wheat), did it in a basket weave.
I had fox in the yard about 10 years ago. They were real shy, when they saw me they would take off. In recent years, it's been coyotes.
Sunday was a pork rib roast of the grill. Leftovers tonight.
Chocomouse, I used to lose power often. So I bought a butane fueled camping stove. Now if the power goes, I have at least a burner that I can cook something on.
I'm going to saute a handful of shrimp, boil some angel hair pasta, and have it with left over Chinese food (3 kinds of mushrooms in a nice brown sauce) tonight.
Today I made Maple Cookie dough, portioned and in the freezer now.
Also made a half dozen baked doughnuts. I used some whole wheat and oat flour (1/2 total) and topped them with chocolate frosting and coconut. They came out just a little dry, maybe I should have removed them from the oven a minute earlier. But they're still good.
Today I made a beef round roast.
In Chicagoland, you often find skirt steak in Mexican restaurants, which I have found to be very good. I have never had any luck in cooking it myself, except when I bought it from a Mexican market and they sliced it very thin.
I made sandwich buns today. Unfortunately I dropped one of them when I was removing it from the pan 🙁
This morning I made buckwheat waffles with oats and pumpkin. I had some pumpkin puree in the freezer that I made last fall that I wanted to use up.
Tonight I made a small pork roast and had it with macaroni.
