What's For Dinner #80 - the Silly Bunny with Eggs Edition - April 2022

In our backyard, at least, the Martha Washington asparagus spears are skinnier than the Jersey Knights. So I think you are right, it can depend on variety. Ours got all mixed up in one patch, and I just use the different widths for different things.

Tacos tonight to use up the braised pork. Made jalapeños torreados to go with, along with some radish and cilantro for garnish.

Sugar & maple pie

and baked almond milk Arborio rice pudding for dessert.

I’d be happy to give you a call the next time Mr Bean catches some. Where are you in the summer?

i asked the BF to make us this:

which he did - a creamy parmesan sausage soup. maybe not the best choice on a 90 degree day, but it was good! he also roasted some eggplant alongside.

Well, that may be a little far to come for dinner as I am in New Jersey. But if you are ever in my area you are more than welcome!

Eggs were recently on sale so I bought my limit of 4 dozen. I decided to hard boil one of the dozen. Then I had no idea what to do with them all. Many of my favorite Indian restaurants serve numerous variations of Egg Curries and decided that sounded perfect for a cold, rainy night. I ended up loosely following a recipe for Egg Aviyal from Curried Favors by Maya Kaimal MAcMillion. I picked it because it called for yogurt, which I had a smidge to use up, and lots of curry leaves which I love. I added a bit of canned of tomatoes and some frozen peas, both of which I had taking up space in the fridge.

That pizza looks so delicious

Thank you! I should have included the cheeses: parm, low-moisture mozz and fresh mozz. It was terrific.
I made enough of the bechamel for two, so will be repeating soon.

Last night we made herbed lamb chops, roasted yellow beets, and buttered broccoli with a green salad. Very tasty.
