I luuurve Onion soup.
I'm craving pork ribs and roasted potatoes but it's so damn hot today. I think I'm still going ahead with it tho.

We have pork sausages for the barbecue later and I will make green salad and potato salad and pop a garlic bread on the grill too

We made vegetable skewers in place of green salad, with mushrooms, onions, courgettes and red peppers, brushed with olive oil and salt/ pepper. Too hot to cook indoors.

Asparagus and scrambled eggs for a quick lunch. It was very good.

Cut them up and freeze them for use in soups and stews, make some onion jam for burgers.

It was a kitchen day. We bought some bulk hamburger meat yesterday.

Two batches cooked up to use for chili one to freeze and one being made in the slow cooker today, made up hamburger patties for the freezer, and a pan of stuffed peppers in the refrigerator to bake this evening when its cooler.

Looking forward to having chili in the freezer again as its so easy to grab and heat during the week.

Banana ice cream and marinated strawberries.

Barbecued chicken fingers, scalloped potatoes, green beans, and garlic bread.

Chickens have fingers? Is this like boneless ribs?

I don't know why they call them fingers. They're just strips of chicken breast, lol.

I don't usually eat things I can't pronounce.

Drool. You make the best food!

Did you make the wontons yourself? I’ve been thinking of trying but somehow I’m sure I’ll mess it up. The wrappers need to be so very thin that I don’t know if I can manage it.

 

[Ingenue844]

We made sloppy joes and Mac salad

 

[Lady2020]

Baked a whole chicken yesterday. I had to guess at the weight. I guessed right because it turned out great. 20 minutes per pound at 350. 5#.

 

[seela]

Green beans, perch fillets and lemon burned butter sauce.

 

[twister947]

It's summer...gazpacho!

Thanks.

No, I buy packaged wrappers. I did contemplate making them myself but it’s a lot more work that way. I used to buy a brand that was easily available in most stores but they changed their recipe so I didn’t make them for awhile because the wrappers would just fall apart in the pan. It was seriously frustrating because I’d be making them in the pan same as I had for years and suddenly I was questioning everything like “did I overfill?” “Too much water for steam?”.

I’m so glad I checked out a nice produce store recently because I discovered they have some convenient Asian products like the wrappers. They didn’t fall apart at all!

I might make them if I ever get a pasta attachment for my Kitchenaid, but these hands aren’t rolling out much anytime soon.

Once again, my life was saved by frozen waffles.

Feeling down, here’s some distracting images of meals I’ve made recently:

"Poor Man's Burnt Ends" from He Grill Hey: Burnt Ends.

Its a chuck roast, slow cooked on the smoker, (Hickory, I think) then rested, cut in cubes, drenched in BBQ sauce and finished on a hot grill. Smoky, beefy, the taste of summer, but without the need to cook a 7-8lb brisket.

Potato salad, green salad, nice, cold beer from the local brewery and gluten-free fresh berry cobbler that cooks in a Dutch Oven on the smoker while we eat.

Sunday breakfast. I make killer home fries: yukon gold potatos ( taste is better) cubed. Large sweet onion. Sweet peppers. Ground sweet sausage.
Brown potatos in oil, marry everything together, cook for 15min. Fry a couple eggs. Wife gets breakfast in bed!

 

[MikeLucas]

Smoked tri tip. Going to do a reverse sear And serve with potatoes and asparagus.

Looks like a good recipe. Chuck roast used to be very reasonably priced but not anymore. I'll watch the sales and try this!
