What's for Dinner?

[MisterCairo]

Tossed a strip steak inside the microwave. Not quite so up to broil standard but passable convenience counts.

I have to be completely honest - MICROWAVING steaks?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!??!?!

 

[MisterCairo]

Last night a frozen snack supper. Two types of spring rolls, chicken batters and tator tots.

Four Michelin stars...

Pan fried the other nite, but microwaving can be done: 2mins one side, flip, another minute. Not bad.
Steak can also be cooked wrapped in aluminum foil and fastened atop a jeep engine. Check two hours later.

Pre-cooked bacon, sausage heated in microwave one minute is quite convenient.

A bachelor, I always cut a few corners whenever, wherever.

Fuel, fire, fantastic...

 

[MisterCairo]

Instant pot pulled pork sandwiches and rose wine.

Some French Comté, Frankfurters, locally produced strawberries. Red wine mousse and Flensburger Dark for dessert.

I am out of everything so I need to make a pit stop at a local grocer enroute home tonite.
Thinking of cooking a bit; perhaps meat loaf made with ground turkey, toss in some bacon (pre-cooked),
ground Ritz crackers, add one egg, tomato sauce. Later, pour remaining tomato sauce over top.
Or just grab a few strip steaks. Or, order in a pizza, erase the grocer out of the equation for tonite.
Mebbe just stop at CVS and pick up a few tins of Spam. Spam with peanut butter and saltine crackers.
A few small bottles of Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, or Sauvignon Blanc. Coke Zero or Diet Pepsi.

^^^ Oddly enough, supper last night was homemade meatloaf, ketchup based sauce on top, mash and tinned peas!

 

[Touchofevil]

Chicken breast marinated in a lemon and herb sauce, oven roasted potatoes, asparagus from the grill.

Every thing on that menu sounds excellent! I am envious!

 

[Touchofevil]

Vegan burgers for dinner last night. They sure are a lot better than they sound like they would be. Really good in fact! They made me happy.

If things ever open up, we would love to have you over!

If and when!

Last nite a strip steak with tater tots; tonite may repeat but the sink is still stacked.

 

[Touchofevil]

Just snacked on cheese, salami and triscuits last night. Tonight, who knows more of the same sounds good to me.

We indulged in a genuine culinary adventure last night... a 'live' cooking demonstration by Wolfgang Puck and his son. This was arranged by my fund manager's firm for about 60 clients. It was set up as a Webex meeting with real-time Q & A. All the ingredients were drop-shipped the day before, including two bottles of wine. My wife and daughter did the honors and it was outstanding. He made a real show of it and salted the conversation with great anecdotes. Never sure how it would work out; however, in this case 5-stars.

We prepared:

• Chinois Chicken Salad
• Wolfgang’s Signature Mushroom Risotto
• Molten Chocolate Cake

^^^

Cannot compete with that! Leftovers - sausages from the grill and chicken kebabs.

Love risotto, but lose me at the mushrooms. Like the flavour, hate the texture.
