What's for Dinner, Thurs., Mar. 29, 2018
All I know is seafood, and the Resident Gourmand is headed to the WF for that right now.
So since I can't tell you much about dinner, let me tell you about lunch! I went to a conference today on healthy foods in the school system. It also had to do with school gardens. Needless to say, the breakfast, lunch, and cocktail hour was all healthy food. And--interestingly enough, it was an actual school dinner served at that particular school's cafeteria.
Grilled chicken with oregano and lemon, salt, pepper, and of course, garlic. Vegetable medley of halved Brussels sprouts, zucchini, carrots, and snow peas. The vegetables were barely cooked and had a crunchiness to them that one rarely finds at that type of an affair. Farro, I think it was, and chickpeas with a dark green leafy vegetable in it.
There were several types of cookies for dessert (plus something else that I can't remember) but the one I had was ginger. It was so good that I vowed to make a healthy cookie recipe sometime in the next day or two.
Organic wines at the cocktail hour. Plus samosas with mango sauce. Hummus and crudite.
I had a fantastic day and am so excited about all the people I met and the new ideas that came my way!

Recipe came from WHERE???
Not unlike 'mine,' I 'invented,' so few 'interim steps.' Browning my least favorite. And as no crockpot, on stove-top for a few hours. AND use jarred pearl onions, and canned peas and carrots.
Mashed potatoes and a salad.
Love short ribs cooked for four hours.
