What's For Dinner #99 - the Orange is the New Black Edition -October 2023

Huevos Rotos using fresh Spanish chorizo, along with potatoes and onions from the garden. Served with orange slices for acidity, and a few tortilla chips for crunch.

I like the New York Times version (gift link).

Thank you! I am amazed at the amountsā€¦1/8 tsp. ( about my speed) to your ā€˜heapā€™. I love spicy on the tounge. It doesnā€™t like me from the throat down.

Iā€™ve been lying low the last 5 wks or so. I lost my job, and a few other things going on that arenā€™t so great, and I just havenā€™t had the heart to do a lot of fun cooking. Certainly not posting. But Iā€™d like to rejoin the eating and cooking community. This group really does support and prop each other up. I see examples of it all the time. So Iā€™m going to try and turn that frown upside down and share some meals with you all again. Tonight was tortilla soup with avo and fresh fried chips.

Sorry to hear that, but hereā€™s to new beginnings! Cooking is also the best therapy and helping oneself feel normal.

Tonight I cooked mom and BF our annual Okroberfest meal of Chicken Schnitzel, German-style potato salad, and bacon-mushroom gravy. Unfortunately the picture does not properly convey the size of these cutlets. They were pounded so thin that the neighbors probably thought we were having construction.

There was a martini.
