Tenderloin steak, rare with caramelized onions, roasted baby potatoes
and probably the last fresh corn on the cob of the season.

Looks great. Dinner here is being looked after by my better half. She
is using the gas grill to do chicken. She is also doing some boiled
little potatoes, some cauliflower and broccoli and a salad. I am sure
she has it all under control.

Oops... forgot the grilled corn. Who is it here that talked about chili
powder and lime juice on grilled corn on the cob? Bonus points for that
one.

Looks lovely.

I don't have a picture of mine, but it was pork ribs with a spice rub,
served with quinoa salad.

There are leftovers to be served Tuesday night. Tomorrow, we will have
the leftover coq au vin that I made yesterday. I like to stagger our
leftovers.

Ours last night was roast loin of pork and roast potatoes, with black kale,
and carrots fresh from my garden.

Never thought to take a pic.

Sounds good to me! I've never seen or heard of black kale before. I'll
have to look for it.

I'm not keen but DH loves it so I grow it for him and it is Very Easy to
Grow lol If you like spinach you will probably like this. I think the
Italian name for it is Cavolo nero so you might know it by that?

You're not alone. I've never developed a liking for kale. I might
have a different opinion if I was into green smoothies, but I'm not.
I prefer spinach or rainbow chard over kale as a side vegetable,
although I do like kale chips.

Apparently it's called a lot of things: Tuscan kale, Tuscan cabbage,
Italian kale, Dinosaur kale, cavolo nero (may be misspelled as cavalo
nero), black kale, etc - I've eaten it and it's still kale to me.

I've never made it that way. I usually sweat it with some butter but this
time I was in a hurry. I put it in the microwave with a little water (the
way I do cabbage) and it still came out raw, so I put some butter on it. It
came out crisp <g> First time here! I now learn that one can make kale
