What's for Dinner ~ Saturday March 30th
?
= new reply since forum marked as read
I have some cheddarwursts (I know, I know, but I love them). I'm going to wrap them in flour tortillas and either fry them or bake them. A can of baked beans, which I will doctor. And some salad.
It just feels like one of those days.
because they are so good.
Can't chew yet, but there will be mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes and cranberry sauce. I won't starve 
You could always put everything in the blender and join in, lol.
Going to shred some green cabbage with whatever other salad veggies I have for a side.
I'll throw some black beans in with the ground beef. I'm making some spanish rice too. Have the usual taco fixins at the ready.
Adding a half a cup of salsa is also pretty good. I could eat tacos once a week.
And some gawd-awful (evidently mock) rice that was supposed to be Arborio. I didn't begin with a roux because I wanted a lighter version and it turned out well, not soupy at all. And it was chocked full of veggies, lima beans, corn, tomatoes, carrot, peas, green beans, and the Cajun Trinity of celery, bell pepper, and onion. I also added garlic for its anti-inflammatory properties. I deglazed with white wine as I cooked the mirepoix, the chicken chunk, and the sausage, and added some fresh thyme as well as a dash of Old Bay seasoning. Mr. Pup was in heaven. Happy Easter!
But no wine in the house. That made me very crabby. 
Yellerpup, that sounds like quite the production! I got the image of you conducting a symphony as I read it.
Lucky Mr. Pup!

Outrageous! No wonder you were crabby. I do like kitchen conducting and bringing the whole production to crescendo. The gumbo tasted great but caused an arthritis flare up with the nightshade vegetables so prominent in this dish. I'll get better as the day goes along--but no leftover gumbo for me! I should make some meatballs. Delicious!
