What’s for dinner 2024

[DrHenley]

You should make your own. The bread freezes well.

Can't get muffaletta bread here. Without muffaletta bread, it's just a ham sandwich. I have tried making it on other kinds of bread but it just wasn't the same.

Get the bread delivered, then freeze it. I wonder if whole foods has it? Find a bakery that can make it?

 

[DrHenley]

Ain't no Whole Foods anywhere around here. Maybe 2 hours north.

 

[DrHenley]

I checked on getting it delivered. Nobody can guarantee a delivery date right now. There are two restaurants in town that sell them, but one is not authentic (it's a pannini that doesn't taste anything like a real muffaletta). By the time I pay for overnight shipping from somewhere, the bread will be more than buying one in a restaurant.

No real bakeries here.

I live in a culinary wasteland.

 

[Amish Heart]

Making cheeseburgers and sweet potato fries. Have some brownies I made for dessert.

 

[Proud Prepper]

I made hibachi rice, chicken and vegetables

When do we eat?
I love sweet potato fries. And I can't stand baked sweet potatoes or sweet potato pie.

 

[Amish Heart]

I don't like sweet potato pie, either, but I like pumpkin pie.
They put some weird garbage on the freezer cut sweet potato fries, so I do my own from sweet potatoes. I just peel them, slice them like steak fries, put them on a pan with olive oil, sprinkle a pinch of garlic salt and bake them. The amish grocery in my neck of the woods always has a good amount of sweet potatoes all year long. I never plant enough to last all year.

I made bacon wrapped prime pork medallions and asparagus.

 

[Mountain Dragon]

Just some pork steaks and aspargus with an sauce Bernaise...

 

[DrHenley]

The wife didn't want to go out to eat for Mother's Day because of the crowds. I cooked up something good, but I think I am going to try to convince her to have a belated Mother's Day meal at a restaurant this evening.

 

[user 7704]

Tonight is BBQ on corn cakes with pinto beans

 

[Amish Heart]

Have a roast in the slow cooker. Making some potatoes, brussel sprouts, green beans and fruit to go with it.

 

[DrHenley]

I made lunch. Know what it is?

You went and got me craving a muffaletta. I had to drive across town.

 

[jimLE]

Rice with butter sausage and scrambled eggs mixed in.

Is that drop on the table you salivating?

 

[DrHenley]

Is that drop on the table you salivating?

Probably LOL.

 

[DrHenley]

That restaurant sells a whole muffaletta for less the twice the price of a quarter muffaletta. So if I buy a whole muffaletta and have them package up half of it to go, it's like getting a half muffaletta to go for free.
I now can eat muffaletta at home for lunch for the next two days!
Kinda makes up for having to drive across town...

 

[user 7704]

Since I am completely hobbled again, husband is bringing dinner. No idea what it is, I just know he doesn't like drive thru

 

[DrHenley]

Sorry Robin. Been there done that with my knee and hip. I'd get out and walk one day thinking they were OK, and then have to spend the next week recovering.

Should have been way more meat though.

 

[DrHenley]

Should have been way more meat though.

It had more than it looks

 

[GaRp58]

Had the funeral for my BIL today, Lots of leftover pizza and coffee. Will last 2 days still.

 

[Amish Heart]

Sorry about your BIL, Garp. Husband and I have been to way too many funerals lately.
Dinner tonight is meatloaf. With fries and green beans, and some fresh fruit.

 

[Cindyd]

I had 2 large chicken legs left over from canning today, threw them in pot w the broth I had left, then shred the meat up, threw it all together with some yellow rice cooked in broth......topped it off w fresh green onions from container pot outside back kitchen porch...was actually pretty good! Broth made the dish...nice roasted chicken flavor w herbs.

So sorry Gary about BIL...waiting any day on my ex BIL to pass on...was like a brother to me...thoughts/prayer to you, wife n family...pizza and coffee are good for the soul! Right? Right!

 

[Proud Prepper]

Caught some shrimp and made a shrimp remoulade salad.

 

[Amish Heart]

Lasagna, sourdough, and a spinach salad.

 

[Psalm7]

Stakes , squash and zucchini are from the garden .

Thought I’d share a picture of my latest boule of Sourdough Bread I finished off baking this morning. While I’ve always loved to bake, I was not into making sourdough bread…until more recently. It is an art and science. Challenging and fun…not to mention freaking awesome to eat!

Just asking a question?
How come you do the "Rustic style of sourdough bread?
Maybe I'll try it soon.
How many loaves do you make in a week?
The reason I'm asking I make sourdough bread also.
