Tonight I’m going to make beef Stroganoff with the leftovers from my tenderloin roast. OMG, so good, it’s one of my favorites dishes in the world.
Woah, I wanna eat at Alice’s house tonight 
Tonight is grilled chicken tenders with cilantro pesto. Brown rice, tossed green salad on the side.
Thanks for the new thread, Alice.
Been traveling the last week and eating crap, so it’s good to be home and in the kitchen again. Tonight was basic - ground beef soft tacos with homemade salsa.
BlueKangaroo, we’ve been eyeing that salmon cake recipe, too!
Tomorrow is the farmer’s market, so I hope to find something good to go with either the (new fave) fish tacos, or grilled salmon (Friday is fish day). Probably tacos since we still have fresh salsa left.
You all have another 24 hours to get here- I couldn’t make my stroganoff tonight because I had a relapse of the food poisoning (I think) that I had yesterday. 
No, it wasn’t from anything I had made! I think somebody douple-dipped in my hummus at work.
I’m pretty proud of what I made last night- a tomato and caramelized onion tart on phyllo with smoked mozzarella. I’d been dying to make a tart and accidentally bought phyllo instead of puff pastry.
This is the recipe that I used as a jumping-off point. I skipped the bell pepper and klamatas, choosing instead to caramelize a large red onion. It was lovely, though I should have thought to make a salad or something because it wasn’t very filling and me and my husband ended up snacking on leftover homemade bread with some chevre later.
I’ve got 2 briskets on the smoker for a goat grab at my sister’s house tomorrow. I’ve had good luck with high heat, between 300 and 350, but I’m going low and slow with these. They went on at 6 this morning. I hope I can yank them by 7 tonight.
Chicken on the grill again, marinade TBD. Suggestions welcome of course :).
The grocery store had a great 2-day sale on a ton of produce so I skipped the farmer’s market (not much at ours anyways except berries and lettuce and herbs) and bought a ton of cukes, tomatoes and a 5 lb bag of vidalias. I think I’ll grill some of the vidalias tonight and make some homemade salsa.
I’m marinating about 20 chicken thighs to grill Seoul Chicken tonight. Again. Because I am addicted to it.

Also loaded cauliflower and salad.
That sounds great…except it’s pretty much the same recipe I marinated the chicken in last night with the exception of lime juice :p. It’s a killer recipe, though.
No cod or halibut at the store today for fish tacos So it’s salmon on the grill and either grilled asparagus or arugula salad. Finished up the fresh salsa with some chips. Had to be done!
My mom begged me to make this Thai Shrimp Curry with her tonight. I got about 3/4 of the way done with it before I announced that we were ordering pizza. Just no flavor at all - blech! I think it was the recipe’s fault, but to be totally honest, I’ve NEVER made a successful Thai dish.
And while she was ordering the pizza, the damn dachshund ate a huge bowl full of jasmine rice that was sitting on the table. :smack:
So, yeah…we’re having deep dish pizza tonight, later than usual. 
Tonight is arroz con pollo:
3 slices of bacon, chopped up and fried in olive oil
Then throw in 6 chicken leg quarters, browned in batches, with about 2T of ground *achiote * (none of that Goya Sazon stuff, too many preservatives), salt, pepper, and paprika
Remove browned chicken and fry 1 huge-asss Costco onion (~ 2 regular onions), maybe 4 cloves of minced garlic
Add diced bell peppers: 1 red, 1 yellow, 1 banana pepper
Throw the chicken back in, then add:
1 diced tomato
1 15-oz. can diced tomatoes
maybe 2T each chopped capers and green olives
1T oregano
1/2 c. chopped cilantro
2 c. rice
Maybe 3 c. water
More salt and pepper
Let it all simmer until the rice is done
Yum!
Sometime this weekend will be borsch, starting with the stock left over from making the Turnip Greens Cooked in Rich Pork Stock the other night - used up ~ 1 lb. beet greens, 1 lb. turnip greens, and ~ 1 lb. kale, with a chunk of extremely smoky Hungarian bacon (which was actually fairly lean, more like smoked pork loin than bacon, really). Into that will go the CSA beets, carrots, and cabbage, plus beef shank bones, bay leaves, potatoes, peppercorns, potatoes, garlic, tomato sauce, and at the end, a bit of vinegar, fresh dill, and a blob of sour cream to serve.
Tonight is something quick and fast since we went out this afternoon and came in late. Fajitas (okay, we use the spice mix but it’s so yummy) and some sweet potato fries.
Tomorrow night it has been decided will be salmon (with this interesting dill garlic recipe on the back of the package) and rice, carrots and corn on the cob. Not taber corn, won’t be for a bit yet but it looked good so why not?
Tonight it’s St. Louis-style ribs on the grill, with potato salad and bourbon as the sides.
Nothing fancy, just good old home cooking.
I made potato salad today for the first time ever and it turned out real well.
Chicken from the grill with some BBQ sauce made locally, slaw, sweet corn and garlic bread washed down with iced tea. We had cocktails with some fresh salsa, guacamole and tortilla strips earlier and may have a bit of Skinny Cow carmel cone ice cream later.
Today I’m making black beans from At Home with Madhur Jaffrey and later in the week I’ll be making a lamb stew from the same book, but with beef, since I couldn’t find the cut of lamb I needed that wouldn’t bankrupt me (I don’t know what’s up with the price of lamb these days). I’ll make a brown rice to go along with them and some greens.
My wife went postal on the veggie patch this afternoon, so I am about to launch into a batch of pesto-making - frozen in ice-cube trays, they last for months…
Grim
That sounds really good.
I’m trying out this recipe for tzatziki potato salad tonight.
Semolina Macaroons - I created this recipe last week and took some to work - they were gone within minutes. Made some more this morning.
