Time to do some cleaning out of food - thawing some ground sirloin, have some hot dog buns in the freezer, so probably funny burgers with some grilled fries & veggies. Nothing spectacular.

What are you all up to?

P.S. Just found something to jazz up the funny burgers - sounds good.

Tomato Relish
(Cuisine, June 1999, Issue 15, p. 12)
Makes: 1 Cup

Caramelize in 2 T. Olive Oil:
1/2 medium red onion, slivered

Add and Cook:
4 Roma tomatoes, seeded and coarsely chopped
2 T. balsamic vinegar
1 t. sugar
1/4 t. salt
1/8 t. black pepper

Remove from Heat; Stir in:
1 T. chopped fresh thyme

Carmalize onion in heated oil in a saute pan over low heat, 20–25 min. Stir often to prevent burning.

Add tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper, once onion has caramelized. Cook until tomatoes break down slightly, 8–10 minutes. The finished relish should be thick and chunky.

Stir in chopped thyme at the end. (Add thyme last, if cooked too long, the flavor of fresh herbs diminishes.)

Are you going to make the corn/lime salsa with it? That was very good.

I'm going to make the sauteed chicken, green olives & caper recipe that was posted the other day. Parsleyed red potatoes and steamed asparagus with it.

Since an "incident" happened at my training restaurant this morning I will be off tonight any way and the weather is beautiful so I am doing the "Pinwheel Steaks" on page 51 of the Weeknight Menus...I am doing another spring mix salad since I have another package of the mix. I am adding feta, cranberries and a white balsamic dressing that is kind of citrusy to the salad...oh so good to quote the guy on the noon news. Going to have to check out the news too...

If the weather holds, it'll be grilled steaks, baked regular and sweet potatoes, grilled asparagus. If it does pour rain, it'll be a baked penne dish from The Sopranos, with little meatballs in it.
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.

I think we're going out for Chinese food tonight. I have to work every other evening this week, so it seems like a good plan to me.

Make sure you take home all the leftovers, Maryann! I really need to start using the planks for more than fish!

I got this recipe from the pamphlet that came with my old kettle grill many years ago.
