Gee, I dunno I lived in Wisconsin for over 25 years and NEVER heard or had it!

Tonight is family dinner with my extended family and it's my turn to cook. I'm at work so my crockpot is working on a wild rice and mushroom soup that I will finish off with cream and spices when I get home. I have a loaf of crusty bread for the family and boring gluten free crackers for me. My nephews will have their standard pasta. They don't eat much else and it's not the hill I'm going to die on right now so I cook them up a weeks worth every Friday and they have to make it last. They are very specific about it having to be pasta that I make, no one else.

I marinaded boneless pork chops in pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger powder, garlic powder and pepper. I grilled them along with sliced pineapple. Rice was the side. Pretty good if I say so myself.

Teriyaki Salmon bowl with grilled veggies and squash. Thank you Daddi!

It's been AGES since I had boiled peanuts! Soo good.

How did it turn out?

Tonight, I had a Pomegranate inspired bagged salad. It's so good I got two bags (had the other one yesterday!). This was promptly followed by cake and plenty of water to wash it all down.

Had grilled white fish and veggies in yellow curry sauce over white rice. It was delicious.

Pretty good! I just squished a bunch of riced cauliflower into a pizza pan lined with baker's paper; then poured a half cup of a mixture I made out of coconut cream/coconut water and a bit of coconut flour on top of it and squished it all over the riced cauliflower -- then baked the pizza crust first, then put the other stuff on top and shoved it back in the over to bake for about ten or fifteen more minutes. The pizza pan I have is not a big one; it's more like a small personal pan size, which I found at a Good-Will store, a few years ago. Comes in handy, when I want a small meal for myself. :)

I made an omelette with red bell peppers, onion, and spinach. I also had some Morningstar vegetarian bacon.

For dessert I had Greek yogurt with walnuts, banana, strawberry, cinnamon and kamut puffs.

It was all absolutely delicious.

No, I picked up yellow veg curry from my favorite Thai Express shop on my way home. I either have it as it is or I add chicken or fish.

I tried a new recipe...

I made this (mine didn't look quite as good) last night. It turned out pretty good but next time I'm going to add more broccoli!

Clarification...
 

"Marinated*/vs*Dry Rub":

What I know about cooking: is a dry rub does not involve *moisture*.
Additional knowledge/explanation would be a violation of T.O.S. :readrules:

Ks-

I'm quoting below so I remember what is good in this recipe and don't f**k it up like I did tonight. Tonight I wokk-ed together carrots, onions, tofu, and riced cauliflower and then added .5 cup Gochujang. It was a disaster! The number one problem was too much sauce! Just crazy! Also, I should not have put the tofu in with the veggies without cooking them by themselves first. I was just being lazy. And I don't think the riced cauliflower worked. And I had also added a teaspoon of EVOO in cooking and maybe it's better without that. I got cocky :mohawk: because my last version of this dish came out so good. This one came out steamed, mushy, and wayyyy over-sauced- Really I should have been arrested it was so alarming.

I did have some of my famous plum and cucumber salad which came out great. That involves chopping up 2 plums and chopping up 1 cucumber and putting them together. Aw, simplicity. I actually watched a youtube once about plant based recipes that involve one or two ingredients. Like this man had a guest over and he served some defrosted peas, and it was really good. At least that's what the man said about it on the video. Not sure what the woman actually thought :blink:

School is back in session. One of the boys requested garlic roasted lemon chicken. I made that today with rice and sliced tomatoes and cottage cheese.

20 minute dinner (so easy and delicious)
 

Is there such a thing as Spicy ChiKn-Cordon-Caesar?
That's what I'm having tonight.

I use one slice of Garlic Nan bread; I cut in half, then I set it aside.

Then I take two Spicy Quorn ChiKn patties and simmer them in EVOO or Coconut oil in my new non-stick, non-plastic resin, frying pan for about 15 minute (med-high heat).

Once I flip the chik-N patties over, I lay down both halves of the Garlic Nan bread, top both pieces with Field Roast Chao Cheese, then put the chik-N patties on top, then turn off the burner and slip the lid back on the pan.

I let it sit in the pan for about 5 minutes, so the Garlic Nan becomes warm and soaks up the evoo/coconut oil and to let the cheese melt.

Once it's ready to serve, I take a leaf of romaine lettuce and tear it up, put it on top, then use my favorite vegan Caesar dressing on top of the whole thing.

For those who like the powdered spice of Curry, I usually sprinkle a touch of it on top, as well as crack a few peppercorns too.

*Delish!* :)

- Udon noodles with sesame sauce and peanuts and green onions
- applesauce

Fried chicken fingers
Cole slaw
Diet Vernors

First I had some celery with tofu salad (tofu salad sold in store).

Then I took a box of MacDougall brand low sodium French lentil soup and cooked it in a pan with a bottle of water and a bag of frozen kale. Unfortunately it turned out horrendous. The water watered it down too much, and I think I don't like the soup brand, because I literally could not eat this concoction. That's rare for me, because even if I don't like something I will usually eat it anyway- but this was just too unpleasant.

I instead had a bowl of frozen / microwaved black bean soup with chopped onion, cilantro, and sour cream.

Then I had a vegan vanilla Rawmantic bar.

Honestly I felt a bit sick to my stomach after the whole meal. So I had some chamomile tea :tea:.
