Saturday Dinner 12/19/09
- Thread starter Lefty
- Start date
Typically, I work on the IC Challenge on Saturday nights.
The cocktail is Rob Roy!!! (one of my favourites)
First course is an arugula (green!) salad with toasted pignoli nuts, warmed goat cheese and sauteed apples.
Dinner is a slow roasted chicken with either mushroom ravioli or another pasta with broccoli rabe (green!) Probably make a pumpkin butter sauce for the pasta.
Dessert is apple turnovers.
Wine selection not attended to yet.

How cool that they do Christmas ice shows. I love to see all the skating on tv and have been lucky enough to see several live performances with some of the older "biggie" performers also.
Deadly Sushi

I ate some feta cheese and oilives but Im not too hungry because of the large lunch I had.
Made some beef barley soup today... Always make soup in a snow storm, nothing better. Then, in the residual heat in the WFO from baking bread today, I roasted porgies on cast iron pans for each of us.
Looks delicious Barb.. 
Oh my! That looks so flippin' good! Awesome! We've got scanners for pics and paper......now we need a food scanner so I can get my hands on that!
Yup looks good!
We just had tacos tonight courtesy of the wife. First she browned the ground beef, then added mild taco sauce cause she couldn't find the taco seasoning packet. I found it for her. So then she said 'ahhh to late', so I took over and fixed it.
Turned out OK.

Sorry Sass missed this the first time around, never heard of making chicken strips that way but sounds real good!
Think I will give it a try next time around! Maybe even use those new Ritz whole wheat veggie crackers. Just like a Ritz but with veggie flavoring and darker since it is whole wheat.
Either way looks good!
Thanks dear. I screwed a few up but saved the best looking ones for a pic to plate.
The chicken is using pre-cooked leftover breast pieces.
Cioppino- Thanks for recipe Vera!
That's a big pot of goodness right there, Dan.
Sweet stuff there Dan! Now what was that address again so I can Map Quest it????
I just showed my DW the picture of what you cooked, and asked her who cookedit.Arugula salad with goat cheese, sauteed apples and toasted pignoli nuts
Slow roasted chicken with pumpkin ravioli and broccoli rabe
She said "Vera" LOL Looks Fantastic, by the way, I appreciated your Ciopinno recipe!
LOL my wife is getting the same way these days. She looks over my shoulder and says, "Oh, that must be Vera's" or "I just love the way HighCheese plates" or "JoeV must be baking again!". There are several others she can guess pretty good at just by the pictures: Keltin's, Mama's, HomeCooks, just to name a few.
I think that says something pretty cool about NCT and the folks we got here!
