Sounds good. <--That the stuff?

Essentially. Substitute pancetta for pork cheek.

chicken cordon bleu ish. sauteed asparagus, pasta. Not bad for a Monday Night.... (was supposed to be last night's dinner but pooped out) and it was ready by 9pm -so before bedtime

Oh that sounds delightful. That's two of my favourite things. Replace the pasta with boiled new potatoes (skins on) and that's pretty much my ideal meal.

For me, tonight, it was a Tesco's Finest beef burger* on a toasted sesame bun, with a slice of processed cheese (because it's a necessary component of the burger experience) mayonnaise and ketchup.

Granted I now have to hold the grill dial pushed in, to toast the sesame buns, because it no longer catches to stay lit after you let go - but other than that pretty darn groovy.

*Usually I just buy frozen - for about 1/3 the price.

I used bowtie pasta.

Just because.

Souplantation tries to make a lowfat pasta Alfredo. They try not to hit you in the cholesterol.
This is not one of their better ideas. Alfredo needs its cream, dammit, just as carbonara does. Low-fatting it completely misses the point of Alfredo.

Their lemon and caper cream mostaccioli is much more successful. That cream sauce would also do well on fish, I daresay, but the nearest Souplantation comes to a fish dish is their daily clam chowder -- good. To get any better chowder around here, you have to hit one of the coastal specialists that feed famished surfers all day. Those stand or fall on their burgers and their chowder.

there was plenty of garlic, but it came from a jar, pre-chopped. Never been successful growing that, also damn the pre-prepped stuff is handy. I usually (/used to) have fresh from store available too, but not right now. Maybe never again, prep plays havoc with my eczema and impossible to do with gloves on. Garlic prep was a beest job.

Kale YUK!

captainhook455 · 10-20-2018, 05:43 PM

Collards and Kale. I can't eat either one, because it contains vitamin K which promotes blood clots.
