What's for Dinner, Sun., Dec. 27, 2020

[NJCher]

Stuffed peppers and zucchinis. This stuffed pepper is served with a tortilla shell on the bottom, the pepper in the center, and sauce spooned over it. It's topped with a slice of tomato.



In addition, Italian broad beans with onion and pancetta.

I made the salad, which was sliced carrots, mandarins, raisins soaked in apple cider, thinly sliced red onion. Boston leaf lettuce. Dressing is cider vinegar, olive oil, and a little of the cider.

For dessert, flan. Cookies with fig preserve and brandy butter hard sauce. Coffee.

5. Are you in England? nt

[Runningdawg]

18. Nope - Oklahoma.

[LAS14]

19. I've never heard of mushy peas mentioned outside of England. An Oklahoma thing? nt

[Runningdawg]

20. When you say mushy peas in OK most people think you overcooked them LOL

I lived in NYC for a while, I brought back cravings I have to satisfy with special orders.

4. Chicken (leftover Costco rotisserie) noodle casserole,

mixed veggies sauté (kale, carrots, kohlrabi, onions, cabbage). Ice tea. Granny Smith apple slices.

[LAS14]

6. How are the veggies cooked? Sauteed? Cooked a long time southern style? nt

[Tanuki]

14. Tonight I will saute the veggies first in olive oil, add some white wine and

whatever spices I feel like at that point, then cover and simmer for 15 or 20 minutes. I usually don't cook my vegetables for as long as many southerners do, unless I am cooking for someone who prefers that.

7. Back to our twice weekly TJ's broccoli/kale salad with...

... no cal dressing instead of the stuff in the package. Tonight we'll have shrimp on top. Have to use up the bag left over from Christmas hors d'ouvres. Also avocado and Campari tomatoes in the salad.

8. salmon, baked sweet potato, green salad, a glass of red wine and a chunk of Cougar Gold Cheese..

...for desert hubby bought a slice of a 6 layer rainbow colored cake to split.

9. Bean soup

The Landlady(!) took the bone from our Christmas ham threw it in the crockpot along with a 15-bean mixture, spices, etc. It's been slow cooking for over 24 hours and smells delicious. We're making cornbread sticks again and I'll probably ly throw together a green salad.

Chocolate ice cream for dessert.

[samnsara]

10. YUM!! add a garlic knot to that!

[PJMcK]

11. Great idea!

Thank you, samnsara. I'll pass that along to the chef.

Have a great week!

[MissMillie]

13. More leftovers

There's just not much point in cooking more food when there's so much still in the fridge.

Made with lamb bones from a leg from Xmas (thanks for the suggestion).

Salad. Wine.
