we had texas road house for our valentines dinner..

Supper club
So my friend Melinda and I have this little tradition we call Supper Club. It's our way of being frugal but still getting together for dinner. We get together at her place (or mine) and bring our food with us. Tonight I brought leftover stir fry and rice. Melinda had chicken and roasted vegetables. The food was tasty and the conversation was sparkling!

Thus far... stomach being a tad off.... peanut butter and caramel rice cakes. It actually a favy so I'm not suffering. :koolaid:

Damn, all this posting about Texas Road House and we don't have any here OR even in Seattle that I could fine!
IF I should come across one on my travels, what does everyone recommend trying there? |
Tuna on gluten free rye bread that I found at our coop- cooked panini style:hangloose:

Here's the menu. Tonight, I had a salad but was still hungry so DC gave me one of His homemade tacos. I had some candy too. Not a great night for cleaner eating. |

Baked Italian Spaghetti
Garlic Bread Brownies w/French Vanilla Ice Cream |
- cereal (Great Grains and Oatmeal Squares mixed)
- milk - 2 Little Debbie Star Crunches - applesauce |
Zoodles with leftover chicken and veggies quickly stir fried with sesame oil.

Last night I made balsamic bruschetta chicken. I thought it was very good.
|
I had an early supper of pizza.
|
- steak
- fried shrimp - grilled asparagus with lemon - sweet potato - lemon squares for dessert |
I've had petite white northern beans, baby carrots, tiny garlic cloves and bits of smoked spiral ham simmering in the crockpot, all day long. When I sit for a bowl of soup for supper, later tonight, I'll probably toast some tiny slices of rustic sourdough bread, and have that with my soup.

I'm having a cup of that soup I made yesterday for lunch today, but tonight I'm making southern fried chicken, mashed potatoes.and gravy, and a small garden salad.
|
- Baked chicken

Crawfish crawfish and crawfish!
With all the goodies. |
a chicken breast, milk to drink
eating my 2nd ice cream cone for dessert right now ... knowing a third will follow ;) |
Last night was stuffed peppers and tonight will probably be chicken picatta over riced cauliflower.
|
Low carb beef burritos. Those two net carb tortillas are a godsend.
|
ice cream cones
|
I warmed up the rest of the southern fried chicken and creamy mashed potatoes for supper tonight..... it was even better the second time around. SO delish.
<<<<<<~~ I'm in a food coma and ready for bedtime. :moonstars: |
I had the kale pecan cranberry salad I like so much. The honey mustard horseradish dressing really sets it off and gives it a kick. I also had 2 very small pieces of sourdough bread and some pom cherry juice.
DC had pasta and sauce. |
I had a veggie burger with fries and diet Coke to drink.
|
- burger, charcoal grilled, medium, cheddar cheese, no veg
- waffle fries with blue cheese dipping sauce - M&Ms and milk for dessert |
I've got that northern white bean soup with spiral smoked ham, in the crockpot for supper..... but I made an homemade Apple cake, with cherries on top, for dessert. The house smells SO good! It was my afternoon cooking activity while watching the snowfall outside. :balloon:
|
the rest of the Italian Wedding Soup... so sad its all gone!
|
Chinese
Wonton soup
Mixed vegetable stir fry |
Burger, fries, soda.
|
I was in a training class all day. I sure missed my cereal in my cubicle at work, plus subway footlong for breakfast ... late getting home, for dinner I ate a couple of beef hot dogs from the gas station when I stopped for gas ... gulped them down so quickly I did not taste them much which is a good thing because I know from historical experience they really are not much tasty ... but they did the job and that is what mattered.
|
Noodle dish mom made. A soda to drink.

mushroom burger-from "eat figs not pigs"
really wonderful veggie burger-the best (in fact) Caramelized Onions 2 yellow onions, sliced 2 TBS canola oil 1 tsp Kosher salt Mushroom Patties 1 LB baby bella mushrooms, roughly chopped 2/3 cup vegan & gluten free breadcrumbs 1/2 cup vegan parmesan cheese, optional 2 vegan eggs 1/4 c chopped walnuts (my version) 2 cloves garlic, finely minced 4 tsp olive oil, divided Salt and pepper to taste For the Burgers 4 Vegan & Gluten Free burger buns 4 slices vegan cheese of your choice, optional 2 cups loosely packed arugula 2 tsp sherry vinegar INSTRUCTIONS Caramelized Onions Add oil to a saute pan on medium-low heat Add onions, cover and cook for about 30 minutes, stirring frequently Remove cover, increase heat to medium-high and cook an additional 6-8 minutes, scraping up any brown bits If onions are too dry, add about 1/4 water and cook an additional 2-3 minutes Set aside Mushroom Patties In a large skillet on medium heat, add 2 teaspoons oil, garlic and mushrooms. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and saute the mushrooms until most of the liquid has been cooked out, about 10-12 minutes. Add walnuts. Remove mushrooms from heat and transfer the mushrooms to a food processor Pulse mushrooms for about 30 seconds to 1 minute Transfer the mushrooms to a bowl and combine with vegan eggs, vegan Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. Mix thoroughly to combine all the ingredients. Using your hands, form 4 mushroom patties Cook the mushroom patties with remaining 2 teaspoons of oil on medium high heat for about 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through Serve mushroom patties with gluten free & vegan toasted buns, 1/4 cup arugula tossed in 1/2 teaspoon sherry vinegar, caramelized onions, and favorite vegan cheese slices Served w/mixed green salad & sweet potato cottage fries Homemade cookies (for dessert) |
I had one of those days where I feel like gnawing on the bloody leg-bone of a couple of folks but I think I'll settle for Greek yogurt and coffee.
