To those who have served or are currently serving...dinner - Page 12

I didn't cook last night! I ordered a pizza delivery. I am not a huge pizza fan, but I now realise thats because most ofthe pizza round here is shit. I don't like the Pizza King, I don't like Balti House and Pizza Palace pizzas...and I despise frozen pizzas.

So anyway, a flyer from Dominoes hit my mat the other day and I thought oh fuck it....go on then...so twice in the last 3 days I ordered pizza. Being able to pay by card over the phone is dangerous!

So yesterday for tea, J and I shared: a 7" bacon and double cheese, a 9 1/2" Hot and Spicy, a combo box with chicken kickers, potato wedges and three different dips and a portion of two frosted waffles with dips.

Lovely. Mmm. Nicest waffles for ages.

More proof that Brits are just fundamentally more reasonable about their serving sizes. The smallest pizza Domino's even offers here is ten inches, and in my experience (working there for several years as a teen,) absolutely no one orders it.

Not dinner but lunch today I had a sandwich with hommus, baby spinach, tomato and cheese.

I'm so tired I thought I could do with the extra iron and vit c I might get from such a sanger.

The freezer provided our dinner tonight. I'd put up some vegetable barley soup. It was delicious.

One of my favorite "regular" recipes, boneless pork chops in a dijon mustard sauce with shallots and cream (substitute half-n-half).

Very easy, very quick, awesome delicious.

Bloodyhell, that looks tasty, Toad!

Homemade pizza ...
Bread machine dough, topped with
tinned chopped tomatoes
chopped onion

grated cheese
(I sprinkled a few capers on mine, too!)

Oooooooooooh, lovely!
Although... are they intentionally [ahem] darker than average?
Not judging of course, I am quite comfortable with pizzas of a more swarthy complexion...

And can I have jalapenos on mine please?

busterb · 02-02-2009, 08:22 PM

Irish Nachos. I got carried away with the cheese.

Yes, they were a little dark but I've had no complaints.
Jalapenos - of course my dear!

Foil wrapped sweet taters, on rack, baking on wood heater. In blue frog pot, Le Cr*something.
I tried this in an aluminum pot, didn't seem to hold heat like cast iron. IMHO.

buster...would you come and be my personal chef for the next couple of months?

The dishes you've been producing here lately get my mouth watering every time!
