Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - cjs - 07-11-2016 What's on the menu for everyone today?? I'm sure it will be something from Fast & Fresh. Sat down and looked thru this book and can't believe how many dishes I marked. Re: Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - Mare749 - 07-11-2016 That's a good idea, Jean. I need to do the same thing. However, I wasn't thinking along those lines when I started some rye bread last night that is rising nicely this morning. So tonight will be patty melts and some grilled veggies. Re: Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - cjs - 07-11-2016 Patty melts I've decided on the Fresh Corn Carbonara from Fast & Fresh book. Topped with some garlic-oven-roasted prawns. Re: Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - foodfiend - 07-11-2016 For some reason, I'm free as a bird this afternoon so I dug up a recipe for a Vietnamese salad ("bun") with grilled pork. It's a little more time-intensive that what I have been making for dinner, but I wanted something different tonight. http://www.finecooking.com/recipes/vietnamese_grilled_pork.aspx Re: Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - karyn - 07-11-2016 Some delicious sounding food tonight! I love patty melts, and I'm saving the Vietnamese salad. It sounds delicious! We're having grilled steak fajitas tonight. It's been a while so I'm really looking forward to them! Re: Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - cjs - 07-11-2016 Oooops, just looked at the recipe and it isn't from C@H book after all............it's an Epicurious.com recipe. Duh. Sure good with the suggestions of reviewers. Fresh Corn Carbonara I'm thinking a can of smoked clams to go with the leftovers as we ate the prawns. Re: Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - Gourmet_Mom - 07-11-2016 I've bookmarked both recipes! Those shrimp look awesome, Jean! Long day today. I didn't get my shopping done, so dinners are going to be on hold until I can coordinate shopping and a day off to prep. That said, it is lucky I forgot to take our wraps for lunch! They were waiting for us when we got home. I'm anxious to see how the smoothie thaws. So far so good. Re: Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - Mare749 - 07-11-2016 Yummy looking dish, Jean. Vicci, that is one of my favorite summer meals. I change them up with pork, chicken, or shrimp and sometimes top them with a sliced crispy spring roll. Re: Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - Gourmet_Mom - 07-11-2016 Update! Thawed smoothie mix just enough to break it up a bit...add some smoothie chunks and vodka...SLUSHY! YUM!!!! Re: Monday's Dinner, 7/11/16?? - pjcooks - 07-11-2016 That corn carbonara looks great! A must try-thanks for the idea. Well, I finally had some peoples to cook for. I texted my 3 boys at 10 AM and invited them to a "clean out the freezer" dinner. They all showed:-) We had a duck (sous vide) pizza with fontina , caramalized onions, fresh rosemary and cracklings. 4 lamb loin chops were thrown on the grill. A huge piece of bone in rib eye steak (leftover from Sat night dinner) was thrown in the sous vide to warm it up-perfectly warm and still med rare. Mac and cheese (thanks, Instant Pot), a small tortiere, some leftover mashed with brussell sprouts, and a bit of fennel chestnut dressing (leftover from Turkey Day) Oh, and a pizza with fresh tomatoes, fresh mozz and wild mushrooms with pepperoni. I cleared some freezer space and saw the boys to boot!!
