Dinner is going to be grilled rib eye steaks (don't even start!) with cranberry spinach salad and couscous.
I think I've already said this somewhere in this thread. If I ever end up a millionaire or something, I'ma gonna hire Tin as my chef.There's a farmer's market right outside my office that started today.
I saw this weird veggie
so I bought it. Mine came with big kale-looking greens at the top of the stems. An internet search for "purple vegetable" told me it was a kohlrabi--and is a brassica oleracea. So, basically it's the same plant as a cabbage, brussels sprout, kale, collard greens, broccoli or cauliflower.
So, that told me that pretty much the whole thing was edible, so I turned it into:
Sauteed up the 'body' (which is really a stem) of the beast--that's the white squares--with sausage, mushrooms and onion, wilted the greens on top, and then turned the juices into a savory gravy. yum

Well my dinner plan for tonight has been tossed aside. Mr. Wasabi called to say he's going to be later than usual. I'm not making steak for only my son and me. So it looks like fish sticks. Yay :/

My dinner tonight:
Zucchini noodles smothered in leftover sausage gravy (stretched with cream cheese, milk and some sauteed onions), with baked sweet potato and butternut squash.
I'd also taken this picture months ago, but forgot to post it:
Asparagus, baked carrots, chicken covered with a homemade sauerkraut-like ferment and then a side of spaghetti squash with butter and parmesan cheese.

Pizza night since Daddy is on watch. Semi-homemade pizza since I'm using a premade crust. Hopefully I can convince my son to eat some salad with it.
Man, this thread is making me hungry. My lack of a job is forcing me to continue my unfortunate routine of eating nothing but carrots, Mr. Noodles and No Name Chef Boyardee.
I agree. Finally went and I prefer Dick's fries to theirs as well as their burgers which start at $1.29 (I think...) They're extra greasy and a heck of a lot cheaper. I do like that you can add whatever you want to your burger without extra cost, but it was not anything special.
Anyway, everyone's dinners look so delicious... Wish I could cook something so yummy looking!
Sara and I made enchiladas tonight! Well, she made them while I cleaned the kitchen and opened a bag of salad. Both the boys are at work tonight so we made dinner and are watching Desperate Housewives!
Yeesh. Don't eat angry.

But angry is delicious and kind of salty.

I didn't feel like cooking. I made my son PB&J. I gave my daughter some sticky rice and applesauce (she's not sick, she just likes it). I had Greek yogurt with granola.
Were you having chicken liver or beef liver? Chicken liver is gooood.

Leftover parmesean tilapia turned into a fish salad on homemade whole wheat waffles. Sides are baked carrots, butternut squash and steamed asparagus.
I always want to call figmentPez 'fiz' for some reason... And so I shall. Fiz, that looks delicious.
Anyway. I'm cooking tonight with some friends. If I remember to take pictures, I'll show off whatever we make. I am sure it will be delicious, for we are awesome people.

I haven't had beef wellington in ages. My grandmom used to make it and it was delicious.

Im going to be trying my hand at hamburgers again. My burgers flat out suck and I cant figure out why. Sigh.
You mean you didn't snap into a Slim Jim?

I tried something similar to this with bread crumbs just now and it tastes mushy. is it supposed to be?
Try rice. It really fills out the burgers.

my burgers were AWFUL! Goddamn it. I guess it was just another episode of makare Fails at Cooking. I thought that show had been canceled after my recent endeavors had been so successful but I mean shit if I cant make hamburgers. ffs!
What exactly are you doing? Seriously... all you need is Angus, some BBQ sauce, and maybe a spice mix. Mix the Angus and BBQ sauce together, form your patties, sprinkle the spice mix on, grill.

Honestly I would like that even less than what I actually made.
