Thursday's Dinner, 12/11/14?? - cjs - 12-11-2014 What's on the menu today for everyone?? We're finally having the Red Beans and Rice with some of my new Spicy Smoked Sausage from Lake Charles. the recipe is from Lasyone's Restaurant in Natchitoches, LA Lasyone's Restaurant It's one of the restaurant's from a book I picked up, "The Southern Foodie, 100 Places to Eat in the South Before You Die" It is the neatest book!! Speaking of books - I'm sure enjoying Winter Solstice - about 1/3 of the way thru, so perfect timing to Christmas. Thanks for the recommendation, Vicci Re: Thursday's Dinner, 12/11/14?? - Trixxee - 12-11-2014 Freezer diving today - meatloaf and creamed corn, and I'll make either baked or mashed potatoes.

Re: Thursday's Dinner, 12/11/14?? - Gourmet_Mom - 12-11-2014 Jean, I'm enjoying the first book you mentioned! I'm guessing your Red Beans and rice was killer with that sausage! I got steaks and baked potatoes, but I think it may just be potatoes. We are both tired and not feeling the steaks. They look really nice, so I'd rather save them for a night we are not so worn out. Watching Christmas Vacation on ABCFamily right now! Love that movie! It's heavily cut for the family channel, but still good! Re: Thursday's Dinner, 12/11/14?? - cjs - 12-12-2014 Daphne, the Red beans and rice was excellent. Only problem, I allowed them to cook down too much and didn't add more liquid - so of course sitting overnight they dried out even more. So, I'll add a little stock today for the leftovers. I made just a half batch and it's perfect for 2 meals for us. I love it when the first recipe in a book is good!!
