Individual chicken pies
Comfort food on foggy SF summer day.
We enjoyed another outstanding dinner at. Bistro D’Azur in South Orange, NJ including duck 3 ways (duck breast, duck confit salad, foie gras), whole branzino, excellent straciatella salad, fruit de mer, and flourless chocolate cake with coffee ice cream for dessert. We also had an amuse bouche of tuna and avocado. It all went great with an excellent red blend and Brunello di Montalcino.
I make Lamabageen often but not often enough. I cheat and use flour tortillas as the base
We had that Pfaltzcraft pattern growing up
Collaborative dinner with friends camping last night. They made burgers and watermelon-feta salad. We topped the patties with chanterelles we all foraged. For our part we brought corn on the cob, s’more stuff, tomatoes and salad. Some stuff not pictured.
And potato salad, oops. Store-bought and deemed “not worth the calories” by me.
Easy dinner of pasta salad and COTC. Roasted some fruit (nectarines and blackberries from the CSA and figs from our tree) and served over ice cream - vanilla and coffee hazelnut that were the remnants of two open pints taking up space in the freezer. The fruit was really the star of the whole meal.
This sounds amazing!
I think your s’more is missing some chocolate
Yeah, they were not nice flat pieces!
That’s too bad. Maybe next time…
Greek/Armenian dinner: grilled zukes, eggplant, lamb chops from our share, tzatziki, TJ’s gigantes in tomato sauce (not pictured). I was worried that the eggplant was both underdone and burnt, but it was perfect – even if it doesn’t look it.
I woke up with it in my brain.
I tried to tell my brain NO.
It’s Too. Damn. Hot.
She would not be denied.
Bitch.
So I turned down my AC.
Meat loaf (I went very basic: ground beef, ground pork, an egg, Worcestershire sauce, Panko crumbs, s/p, dried minced onion, and lots of dried parsley).
Mashed sour cream potatoes and peas. (Because it’s the law you have to have mashed and peas with meat loaf.) And a quick gravy from beef stock, herbs, garlic powder, s/p, and flour/cornstarch thickener.
Wine.
And there will be meat loaf sandwiches for work lunches.
I also made chicken corn chowder for lunches and my freezer.
I see a small butter lake on your potatoes.
There was a good bit more already mashed into the potatoes along with heavy cream AND sour cream.
If I die, it’ll be with good mashed potatoes in my belly.
