What's on the menu for everyone today?
Easy one for us, Bob grilled wonderful chicken(s) last night and I contributed some hash and we both have leftovers.
We're on our way to Richland today for a few days before heading back to P.A. Had a great visit with the Skeltons!!

We thoroughly enjoyed the visit. I wish I'd had a little more time to spend with you guys - freakin' work
. We are looking forward to seeing you Wed.
We also have some left over chicken. I am thinking a salad. Maybe riff on Bob's desire for mango cherry habanero salasa and add chicken, rajas (from the poblano strips, and some other goodies.
I might also check the kitchen store (owned by the owners of Michaels on the Lake)and see if they have those taco holders.

Glad you guys had fun!
I still have a couple of slices of honey baked ham left so I'm making a ham/green chile quiche. Thinking about making a potato crust. Any tips on the best way to do that?

Jean and Sharon, so glad you all had such a good time! Sure wish we could be there to join in the fun. Oh well, retirement isn't too many years away...
Tonight, I am making Father's Day dinner for my dad since he was at my sister's yesterday. We are having roast pork, and my son-in-law's recipe for Polish cabbage and noodles. Last night I made lemon torte and it's chilling in the fridge.

Trixxee, I've seen Cuisine recipes that use hash browns for a crust.
Tonight from the new grilling cookbook we're having Bacon Wrapped Filets w/ Bleu Cheese Butter and hassleback potatoes, asparagus.

Sorry Trixxee - I didn't see your question before. I used to make a dinner 'pie' with a shredded potato crust. I'd have to think about how I did it, but that won't help you now.

I'm no help with the potato crust either, but I think you might want some kind of binder....like at latke-type crust that is bound with eggs. (Have I been working at the Jewish Day School too long???)
We had
C@H'a Chili Dogs with Onion Slaw. They're always a hit around here.
