you could have pecan pie for the main course!
Some meatloaf I had in the freezer, along with green beans.
We could, couldn't we?Originally Posted by Miagi's_Mommy

I made really really tasty badami murgh, chicken curry with 100 almonds last night. It's on the menu tonight as left overs.
Heat 3 T oil in pan
Puree 2 small onions, and saute 3 minutes
Add 2 t ground ginger, 2 t ground garlic, 1 t chili pepper (pick your spice level preference), 1 t turmeric, 1 t salt and saute ~7 minutes - add 1-2 T more oil or butter if the mixture gets too dry
Add 1.5 lb chicken cut into serving pieces, add to pan and saute until golden, 5 to 10 min
Add 1 cup water, cover and cook 25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through
Puree 100 blanched almonds (3/4 cup)
Add to pan and cook 5 minutes
Add 1 cup yogurt (full fat, low fat doesn't cook at well)
Cook 5 minutes, until sauce is well blended.
Serve over rice and/or daal.
So tasty
You could also make it with veggies instead of chicken. Adjust the cooking time in the middle so that your veggies don't get too mushy.
The recipe originally called for 1.5 c coconut milk, but I didn't have any on hand, and it's got a ton of fat. Full fat yogurt has plenty of fat too, but less then coconut milk.

I fixed shrimp cocktail, pub style fish, we had the rest of last nights slaw, and I fixed cornbread. Yum!
Seared tuna with a seasame seed crust! Yum!
It sounds delicious but 100 almonds??? Really! Almonds are like $30.00 a kilo here!Originally Posted by rahma

Last night I ended up having a burger with beef, cheese, pineapple, beetroot, pickles, lettuce, onion and tomato!
Just about to have lunch now - not sure what yet, but will probably have a wrap from work tonight.
For dinner tonight is Chicken Tandoori Masala with heaps of mushrooms and onions.
And for dessert fresh berries and chocolate berry mudslide ice-cream [ww of course]!

Yes but that's just because I haven't eaten it yet - nothing beats fresh berries IMO [blackberries & blueberries tonight]Originally Posted by Miagi's_Mommy

I've got leftover homemade chili, so it's Stacky-Uppies for us!
My hubby loved them!
Apricot glazed pork tenderloin tonight. Not sure what's going with it. The cupboard is pretty bare so it may be something odd
Chicken and ham jambalaya here. The neighbor made a 22 pound ham on our smoker over the weekend and paid us for using it with about 5 pounds of ham.
We had mac & cheese the other night, and there's another dinner to be had from it -- handy for an on the run dinner night like tonight.

For me tonight its pork chops, mashed potatos and mushroom gravy. One of my most favorite meals since I was a kid.
We had vegetable lasagna and cooked apples. Not very much but very good.
It's Friday. There will be three people at the table we haven't eaten with for a while. Looking forward to that, and planning to serve baked ham, scallopped potatoes, harvard beets and whatever green veg looks nice when I shop. I'll also pick up some apples and they will become dessert -- a crisp? pie? maple poached? or an old family favourite I haven't done for eons: apple batter -- hmmm, quite possibly that's the answer.
I just had fresh mushrooms, tomatoes bacon and eggs on an english muffin for breakfast! Yum it took all of 4 minutes to make.
Not sure what's for tea tonight but I had a burger from work last night so I'll probably have a wrap tonight.
