What's For Dinner #111 - the "I Got A Rock" Edition - October 2024

Take out BBQ tonight. Sliced brisket (lean), I know I know but we just don’t like fatty brisket. Ribs. Sauce on the side. Potato salad, ranchero beans, sweet hot pickles/jalapeños. A leftover from last night Cheddar’s honey type croissant. With butter of course.

Long and tiring day, so I used some of the spinach I sauteed yesterday to make a quick Turkish flatbread – Anatolian Spinach Gozleme.

Very delicious for having taken all of 5 minutes. If I had made 2 I would have eaten 2. But I was silly and only made 1. (So far, that is.)

Busy past 6 days with work and visiting family. Last night I had the kitchen to myself and made jambalaya. Very good. A green salad didn’t make it into the frame

After what felt like a very indulgent weekend to me, we had a simple Abendbrot tonight:

the last of the marinated gigantes, my PIC tackled a few more of those massive olives, assorted cheeses (Raclette, Raschera, Quadrello di Bufala), the last 1.5 slices of San Daniele, newly porchased purchetta :wink: — all with that fabulous sesame sourdough from Mighty Bread Co.

A BAS bc duh: baby red butter lettuce, avo, cukes, celery, toasted sunflower seeds all tossed in a creamy garlic mustard dressing.

MOAR horror flicks coming our way :ghost:

Vietnamese lemongrass pork chops, bok choy, and rice.

These pork chops are among my favorite restaurant dishes, and this recipe was spot on flavor-wise, which was very gratifying.

Tonight I broiled b/s chicken thighs marinated overnight in zhug and yogurt. Sides of cauliflower cheese and leftover couscous zhuzed up with pistachios, dried cherries, and cranberries. Worked. DH did dishes.

Probably a scoop of pumpkin ice cream for dessert.

They look fantastic. Saving.

Interesting combination with the cauliflower cheese :grinning:

They really were — as I said in the COTM report, I think slicing the pork very thin made the difference.
