Me too bbro, but we don't have it too often cause Mav hates mushrooms! Can you believe that shit? lol

He's on a biology camp till tomorrow night though, so tonight is the night!

bbro · 05-09-2013, 08:34 AM

Well, to be perfectly honest, I hate them too

When I made it, I just left out the mushrooms.

homemade sausages - not too shabby for a first attempt if I do say so myself

bbro · 05-13-2013, 10:53 AM

Gonna be making some BBQ Chicken Egg Rolls. Cross your fingers they turn out ok, I don't really have a recipe, just winging it.

I also need to figure out what to make to go along with the last servings of Happy Union. Maybe egg noodles? Buckwheat noodles? Wish I had udon noodles

last night was lightly breaded chicken breasts with mushroom, zucchini, onion sauteed then added to a Tikka Masala. Steamed broccoli on the side. Kids loved it.

Needed a bit more salt.

Tonight I am trying a technique I found to stretch ground beef - it uses chopped mushrooms as a filler. I am not sure about it, but the poster said they couldn't even tell there were mushrooms and her husband hates them, too. I am going to use it to make taco "meat" and make some quesadillas for dinner.

Going to be trying a new seasoning mix for tacos. Man - it's a twofer tuesday

PS - BBQ Chicken Egg Rolls were not bad

I was just looking for a little snack so went to the corner store. They had some dry roasted edamame (soy beans.) I like steamed edamame, so crunchy salty edamame sounded like it might be pretty good. It also has less fat and more protein than peanuts, which I was also considering getting.

Turns out there's a reason why dry roasted edamame hasn't caught on.

Tonight...no meal. Just grazing. Might have some ham on on a mini baguette.

Lastnight though I ate a good meal. Really healthy and tasty: tuna steak fried in a little oil, new potatoes and steamed baby leaf spinach.

Aliantha · 05-14-2013, 04:35 PM

We had spinach pie, lemon pepper chicken and left over rice from the moroccan meal we had the night before. It all went quite nicely together.

footfootfoot · 05-14-2013, 05:21 PM

salsa, chips, cheddar, stout.

Aliantha · 05-15-2013, 03:48 AM

I forgot to mention that we also had a chocolate and raspberry triffle for desert. I made the cake a few days ago and no one ate it, so it got turned into triffle and poof! All gone!

DanaC · 05-15-2013, 06:20 AM

Ohhhh. Oh I do love a good trifle.

Aliantha · 05-15-2013, 06:47 AM

This one was good Dana.

Dinner in the hospital (which in my head is sung to Roses in the Hospital by the Manic Street Preachers.)

First evening, salmon in a dill & mustard sauce, mashipots, green beans and cauliflower.
Do I like the cauli? No I do not. But I'd already asked about fresh fruit for dessert and told they didn't offer that. So I thought I'd best get my fibre where I could. Also the sauce covered the taste.

Apple and apricot pie with custard.
And no, that wasn't what I left, I was attacking it with such gusto that I almost forgot to take a photo for you!

glatt · 05-23-2013, 11:02 AM

That looks pretty good, and I love the dishes. I'd be tempted to swipe one for a souvenir.
