Sure. Raw quinoa pre rinsed. Sauté chunks of chix add chopped veggies sauté some more, add cup of grains, 1.5 c broth .5 c milk, spices bring to boil cover and simmer for 25 min. Add peas or not, I liked the limas the family did not. Parmesan then serve.
I’m confused @chela . You called it a “casserole bake” but does it ever go into the oven?
Your version does sound good, though.
Ramen. I started the broth this morning. A chicken carcass, some nori, onion, garlic. Let it simmer for a while, take out the nori after a bit, strain. Gonna quick sear some pork with hot spices to go on top of the noodles, Add a ramen egg, maybe some corn. Then soy sauce and miso in the bowl for serving.
Baked salmon, mashed potatoes and a glass of ice water for dinner; some Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies and a glass of cold milk for dessert.
Ooooh, I’ve been craving ramen for almost a year now. But I haven’t been able to source fresh noodles locally, and while I have made them from scratch (once) I just haven’t been able to find the time.
Tonight I’m having Birria tacos from a meal kit produced by a local restaurant.
Wild mushroom and roasted garlic lasagna, with Caesar salad on the side, and a few glasses of a nice merlot. Lasagna not made by me, but made by the expert chefs at a lovely boutique Italian grocery. Also some of their incredibly good dill chicken salad if I’m still somewhat peckish later on. 
BLT’s on sourdough bread, Campbells tomato soup and zucchini fries. 
Cooks prerogative finish how ever you like, since I covered the skillet it baked over a flame on my stove.
Mongolian beef and Thai pickled slaw.
Leftover meatloaf, side of orzo with butter and parm.
Today, it’s homemade beef pho. I made the broth yesterday while preparing yesterday’s dinner (chicken paprikash with homemade spaetzle). Ready to serve it as soon as my wife get homes.
Do you have a recipe you can share? Thanks!
For us, a roast chicken with a lemon in the cavity and slaethered with olive oil and Penzey’s Ruth Ann’s Muskego Seasoning. Came out pretty darn well if I say so. Sides of acorn squash with a pat of butter and a glug of bourbon barrel maple syrup in the cavity (the squash itself was kind of stringy, which was a bummer), and diced-up root veggies (home-grown carrots, celery root, rutabaga, whole garlic cloves) tossed in olive oil, salt, pepper, and dried thyme.
Can you tell we’re trying to use up the rest of the fall CSA produce?
Worked till close tonight, so I’m too pooped for what I wanna have (black beans refried in fresh bacon grease, with a pork chop) so that will keep till tomorrow.
Tonight had to be lower effort. A chicken cordon bleu baked in the oven, and I grabbed mozzarella sticks and a small side salad to go with it.
Fried cheese is normally accompanied by ketchup, but tonight for some reason I decided hoisin sauce was the right way to go.
No regrets.
I get weird and depressed by change, and we’re buying a new house.* So, today I made some churros and chocolate sauce to cheer myself up with sweets, and I ended up eating them for dinner.
This is the recipe I followed, but there’s a misprint in it. 1 cup of water is 240g, not 340g:
I baked them instead of frying them (less fatty, and I didn’t want to clean up). In order to make them sticky with the lack of oil, I coated them in cinnamon and sugar before baking them, and dredged them again afterward. Add the cinnamon to the chocolate sauce, and I’d advise throwing a little cayenne in too.
*Don’t worry, it’s my purely non-logical emotional issue with almost all large changes. The new house is much nicer and larger than the current one. I do the same thing when I get a better job. It makes no sense.
Our 16yo son has developed very high iron levels so the doc has outlawed red meat and anything with iron in it , until the levels come down or they think up something so looks like a lot of chicken in the mollusc household in the future.
I made up a huge batch of lemon pepper grilled chicken legs with lemons pepper butter dip ( he swims, he burns the calories) so that should last him a day .
I’d be happy to, but my gf prepared the sauerkraut soup and she made a mishmash of several different recipes.
Last night was Tilapia Ceviche and Air fryer Tofu.
The tilapia was from a Pittsburgh fishmonger that had them swimming in a display.
Costco here has frozen ramen noodles that are pretty good.
