Marinated chicken leg quarters for about six hours in a chipotle bbq
sauce: oil, lime juice, garlic, chipotle pepper slices, s&p, a bit of
tomato paste thinned with water. Grilled them over medium heat,
turning several times. Baked potatoes (with a potato nail in them, as
recollected by a poster a few days ago). Zucchini diced and saut=E9ed
in olive oil with garlic and basil. I used a little dried basil at the
beginning and a little fresh basil at the very end of the cooking.
Covered and cooked till soft. (That's a mood thing: other times we
have them still a little crunchy.) French vanilla ice cream with a
"sauce" that was nothing but frozen mixed berries whizzed until smooth.
Simplicity itself, and a nice little supper. I don't understand
people who don't even try to cook. -aem

Fried brown rice with eggplant, chinese sausages, bean sprouts, onions,
scallions, elephant garlic, and probably something else that I'm
forgetting -- oh, yes, some sort of choy with yellow florets on it.
Yumma.

BBQ hot chicken wings (sauce from scratch), parslied red potatoes,
cucumber and tomato salad with zesty Italian vinegarette and Buffalo
mozza, and Spumoni ice cream for dessert (I didn't have any) with
animal crackers (DS). It was nice.

-L.

Pork and green chilli stew - very simple: pork, gr. chillies, salt,
beef stock, onions, garlic.
Black beans stewed with tomato, fresh green beans, corn kernels, smoked
paprika, liquid smoke, seasonings.
Green salad: green lettuce, raddichio, avocado, fresh orange segments,
cucumber slivers, pecan halves, dressing.

Chopped up a head of green cabbage, sliced a brown onion into wedges
and cut up 2 boneless chicken breasts into bite sized pieces; heated
up the wok; added some canola and sesame oils; threw in the chicken
for a few minutes and removed; added the onions, then cabbage. When
cooked to a crunchy texture I added back the chicken and began to
season with oyster sauce, fish sauce, Sriracha sauce, a splash of soy
and some Bangkok Blend from Penzey's. No rice since we watch carbs.
It was delicious.

Thinly sliced some eye round, seasoned with salt and
pepper, then sauteed it in a half-teaspoon of olive oil
with a minced clove of garlic, a little sliced onion, and
a pinch each of parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. Served
with plain mashed potatoes and lightly nuked carrots.

Dinner tonight was boiled slipper lobster, homemade cocktail sauce,
broccoli, leftover make-ahead mashed potatoes, rice pudding. I didn't
eat any potatoes because the kids wanted them. My girlish figure didn't
need them either.

Well, tonight's dinner was stuff they made up for us (well, for anyone,
really) at the grocery deli -- don't ask. But last night was polenta
(added olive oil, salt, basil, garlic, and a pinch each of thyme and red
pepper flakes to the water), chilled, sliced, fried in olive oil, then
topped with a tomato-and-red-pepper sauce. Yumma.
