Dinner - Tuesday, Jan 13th? - cjs - 01-13-2009

Well, I'll start this post since we haven't had one going for a couple/four days. But, Tuesday, Wed and Thurs. we'll be with friends/son going up north.
Tuesday - Kelly & Brent (some of you met them at the last party on the hill!)

Matt & Wendy, Wed. - my youngest son and his wife - (he was at the party too.)

Coleenie & Roger - my very best friend in the world - she was also at that party.

So, we're going to have a fun week and a completely exhausting one! Should have some great food tho. Kelly does have a request tho, she wants to learn to do a 'proper' omelet - so we'll work on that.

What's everyone else up to?

We're heading out tomorrow, so I'd like to clean out the fridge. Probably Bean Soup.

Jean, do you make your omelets quickly over high heat, or slow over low heat? Have a great time with your friends.

Well, the French Omelet is cooked over lower heat than an American omelet, so I guess it depends on if I'm in a hurry or not...

One thing Chef Bui would really mark us down for is if there was any color on the omelet - NEVER SHOULD BE!

We're having a ginger chicken recipe that Billy gave me. It has become a regular dish to make around here. I'm thinking a romaine salad to go with and 18 hour muligrain bread.

We will be missing you and stuffing our faces with lovely fish tacos, perhaps a nice cabbage slaw to go on top and maybe some beans.

Have fun!

I'm making the Coq Au Vin from one of the Weeknight books tonight. Red grapes were on sale so what the heck!

I'm making a chicken parmesan from the Best Light Cookbook. I had (really) high cholesterol results from my recent tests, so I've had to go on a healthy diet. Not looking forward to the new regime, but I do want to live long enough to spoil any grandchildren I may have.

Also, we're getting ready to go out of town for a week, so working on using up what's on hand. Trip is a mission week to Juarez - I know, it's a dangerous place... but we're not out after dark and no where near the red light district. Should be interesting week builing 2 cinder block homes for 2 different families in the section called Anapra.

My hubby got me the Volume 5 Cuisine Hardcover for Xmas so I am making the Pot Roast recipe from it. Issue No.29, Oct 2001. It's only a little different from how I make mine but I will give it a whirl.

I made the Caldo Verde (same issue) last night and we loved it!

I hope everybody had a wonderful Xmas and is having a great New Year! (My computer was on the fritz so I haven't been on since Xmas... )

Can you make Coq Au Vin with white meat....or would it be too dry? (My husband and father do not like dark meat)

Cheeseburgers, french fries and a salad. He was having a burger attack!!!

Skeetor, I have made the Coq with chicken breasts---cooking time is a bit less but not much--Let us know what you think. You have a ton of great recipes in that volume---have fun and reviews are always welcome....we even jump in if we had made them and add our two cents worth.

HAVE FUN, Jean---you are having way too much of that lately, girl!!


Re: Dinner - Tuesday, Jan 13th? - Trixxee - 01-13-2009

Skeetor - The "quick" Coq Au Vin I'm making from Weeknight Menus Vol. 2 calls for boneless skinless breasts (and you add red grapes which I guess is not usual). I'll post the recipe if it turns out. Well, I can post it regardless I guess!
