White beans au vin from Sunday NYT. Beef stew with beef swapped out for white beans. A keeper.

i took today off as my very nice law firm gave us a paid “mental health day” of our choosing. Took a short walk on the bluffs at Fort Funston as it turned out to be a gorgeous day. Dinner was a giant rib eye, which I intended to reverse sear. my timing was off, however, as I also made the SE best roasted potatoes. Amazingly crunchy! I really loved how the herb & garlic infused oil permeated the taters while cooking. Steak was a tad more cooked than I would have liked, but very tender. On the side, creamed spinach, but made with a bit of runny sour cream as I had no heavy cream. Plenty of garlic, butter and parm regg. and the last of the crimini shrooms, just to use them up. so much leftover steak and a few taters, too.
here’s the recipe for the potatoes, if anyone is interested.

Thanks, it’s half success. I actually baked 2 loafs, the other went weird. But good to test things out.

Simplicity at it’s best. (is there a back story to this dish? I was thinking either childhood favorite or a military “treat” that grew on you)

You all eat mighty well outside. Your tomatoes look like the brown kumatos I buy at Trader Joes. It’s the only store bought tomato I will consume.

Yep - had a box of those and got two local SC jumbo reds to supplement.

They’re the only decent tasting grocery tomatoes that I have found. I’ll eat those except when I can grow my own or get garden grown from the farmers. So one more - you said you didn’t sleep on the ground. Do you guys have an RV? We tent camp, but with an inflatable mattress. More comfy. Still hard to wiggle in and out for midnight potty trips though.
