We had pizza and it made me sick. My piece must have been laced with salmonella.

Smoked pulled pork, cole slaw and greens. Good stuff! :)

Pho Nam with lots of spicy chili sauce

Tonight's dinner was very quick: A ham and swiss cheese sandwich with mustard and some freshly diced cantaloupe.

grill cheese and chips

Ooops... I skipped dinner...which explains why half a beer made me tipsy :blink:

Oh so beer. Beer was dinner tonight. hey...it's protein!

I'm thinking leftover eggplant parm since I barely touched it the other night for dinner...

I also have some beautiful zucchini and summer squash from the farmer's market to cook up...and a gorgeous PURPLE PEPPER!

God I love summer veggies :)

PS: I had a dream about making okra and tomatoes. I've never cooked okra in my life! Maybe I need to change that. The farmer's market had some pretty okra...and awesome maters...I'm thinking okra/mater stew with lentils and spices would be nice!

While perusing for okra/tomato stew recipes I found THIS. I'm thinking it will be dinner tomorrow night!

This looks absolutely amazing! Look at that glaze.

BBQ Night
 

We are entertaining guests from out of town tonight, so my sweetheart is smoking salmon steaks and beef ribs, then BBQ-ing them closer to supper time.

I prepared a baby spring leaf green salad and homemade creamy, cracked pepper garlic salad dressing.

I am also making Zucchini Boats (yummy!):

What you do is trim and halve large zucchini squash, then carefully scoop out the soft midsection of seeds. Then carefully dice up baby Crimini mushrooms and fill each zucchini boat with the diced mushrooms. Then spoon your favorite tomato-basil sauce over the mushrooms and sprinkle grated mozzarella cheese over each prepared zucchini boat.

You can bake them in the oven for about 20 minutes, until they are done. Or, like I do for a BBQ, I put them on the top part of the grill, on heavy foil, and close the grill to BBQ them for about the same amount of time (approx. 20 minutes).

:bouquet:

I had a tuna sandwich with a pickle, to hot to cook.

home made chicken and dumplings that took almost all day...teddys new place smells like a home now :)

We had veggies and tortilla chips with SS (f) guacamole dip along with fruits (banana, blueberries & mangoes)

I KNOW! And it's saucy enough to serve with noodles or the like. I love anything I can make in the slow cooker. Chicken comes out sooo juicy and tender that way... :)

oops I came here to post...lol

I had some eggplant parm for lunch but it's too darn hot to cook so I'm having yogurt with the yummy cashew/ginger granola that I adore from TJs...oh and some fresh blueberries on top cuz I got a ton of them at the farmer's market :)

Dinner tonight was open faced toasted ham and swiss sandwiches

In case you are looking for different ways to prepare okra, it is super good roasted. :)

Still hot and humid, not much in the mood for food. I fixed a garden salad with lettuce, tomatoes, sliced boiled eggs, and shredded carrots and have been snacking on that.

Friday night was brisket, potato salad, beans and a big ice cold glass of sweet tea.

Saturday was hot dogs and hamburgers, late lunch semi dinner.

Tonight was a salad blend of spinach and spring mix, with small shrimp and little steak, avocado and tomato. YUMMY

Dinner
 

Hi,

I am having a homemade cheese burger with all the fixings and steak fries. Ice tea to drink.

Chad

I cooked red cabbage, turkey kielbasa, potatoes, onions, and some apples together. Sure tasted good. I just bought the produce except for the apples at the Amish produce stand on Friday.

Tonight will be a Spring mix spinach salad with Shrimp, Avocado, and Tomato. With a drizzle of ranch.

We're having tomato sandwiches on toast with mayo, salt & pepper. Roasted eggplant and fresh strawberries and mango on the side.

We had chicken burgers, corn on the cob and kale salad. :-)

Popcorn chicken with sweet kernel corn and biscuits with an ice water to drink

We had crispy chicken salads.

Nom nom

Family and friends over to swim in the cement pond...
 

We barbequed...omgee!
Chicken, Fajitas, Pork Steaks, Sausage
Potato Salad, Chips, Pico de Gallo with chunks of avocado in it, crazy good, handmade corn tortillas...

Oh yeah, and agua de sandía, a watermelon fruit drink....

Yeah baby, that's how we got down tonight...

Salmon steaks on the BBQ, corn and a nice simple salad...was quite delicious even if about half the fish stuck to the bbq grill..

I am making a giant bowl of summer panzanella. I am using a blend of kale, spinach and arugula, roasted chick peas, artichokes, capers, roasted grape tomatoes, seeded cucumber, raw asparagus, Vidalia onion, radishes, fresh basil, shredded parmesan cheese and some chunks of toasted 5 grain Italian bread. I made the dressing with roasted garlic, basil, olive oil, lemon juice and zest. Sure this will last me for a couple of days.

Grilled bbq chicken breasts, brussel sprouts and fried potatoes.

It's going to be hot tonight so I think I will do tomatoes stuffed with chicken salad and some veggies and dip.

Last night I got my typical every 2 week meal...take away frozen pizza...

I went with the new favorite spinach/garlic thin crust.

I also had the rest of a po' boy I got when I went out to eat with a friend the day before. Idk what that sauce was but oh my goodness...sooo hot and tasty!

Water to drink per usual...

Klondike bar for dessert (dark chocolate YUM!)
