Such a magnificent thunder storm this morning!! Lou and I are going to a matinee at New Orleans oldest theatre this afternoon to see a screening of Casablanca.

At some point this evening we're doing burgers, fries and corn on the cob.

I made a peach coffee crumb cake this morning. I'm also making a tres leche cake (for the NCT!), but will probably want that to sit for another day before eating.


What are you making?
 
I have a chuck roast thawed out so I'll be making something with that. I may grind it up for burgers on the grill, I haven't decided yet.
 
Picked up a roasted/rotisserie turkey breast half at the market. Making a layered turkey salad w/ strawberries, avocado, red onion, pecans, mozzarella, and dijon dressing.
 
Aint no leftover Bacon Mushroom Stuffed chicken, so I guess its time for...
PIZZA!

Yay!

boy, you must be getting hungry, peeps.

:wink:

tonight's dinner will most likely be chicken and tofu pad thai, or possibly a chix/tofu stir fry.

i have a package of chicken tenderloins and a container of tofu that needs to be used up, and a few boxes of thai pavillion pad thai kits, so i'm thinking noodles.

if not, maybe a stir fry with the same proteins, veggies from the garden, and a sauce of lemongrass paste, soy sauce, fish sauce, garlic, ginger, and a cornstarch slurry.

Need a quick dinner... off to play Irish music at a session tonight at a local coffee shop. Threw the leftover steak, can of red beans, 1/2 pkg. of taco seasoning, dried onions in the slow cooker. Will serve with tortillas, cheese, lettuce, make tacos.
 
I've got a roast going in the crock pot and will roast some potatoes, carrots, celery, and mr's in the oven to go alongside.
 
We ate a little early tonight. It was an eye of round roast cooked with bell peppers and onions. Served it with rice and a tomato - bell pepper salad.

Me too, mhend...you can never have enough gravy.

Dinner turned out to be just veggie plates (hashbrown casserole, mustard greens, corn on the cob, mixed beans...pinto and northern...and sliced tomatoes with cornbread.

I'll cook the roast tomorrow.
 
Thanks, Cooksie and Mama! There was plenty of gravy, I just don't like alot of it. :) And Mama, I love the sound of those veggies!
