What did you cook/eat today (May 2017)?

[Cinisajoy]

Some really tasty looking food today. From Yorky's pie n gravy, to Mypinch's rollups, morning glory's mudbug salad, and creative's risotto. All, well done!

morning glory, I'm with you on the salad but hold the salmon roe on mine. I've used salmon roe for fishing for so many years (that comes in jars of stinky "fish attractant" liquid) that I couldn't think about eating some.

SSNO, broccoli and pasta soup? Did you post a recipe here, or am I reading it incorrectly? Sounds interesting.

Cin, I love chicken parm, pasta, and garlic bread. I've never had it with baked beans, though.

My wife hit one out of the park tonight. She made Gambas al Ajillo (Portugese style shrimp in garlic sauce).

She and our boy had theirs over rice, but I skipped the rice and must have eaten a half of an Italian bread sopping up the sauce.

I just make what sounds good to me at the moment.
I have never worried about whether they should be served together or not.

But then I have been known to make a Chinese/Mexican/Cajun jambalaya.

Lunch today was in a typical monzese trattoria near my office.. fried pork cutlet (with bone), salad and slices of fresh tomato..

Green chicken curry tonight.

The paste I used wasn't the usual one and lacked a little heat and sharpness, enjoyed it all the same.

Today will be steaks with a side of mushroom soup. Not sure the sides yet, but possibly scalloped potatoes, baked beans and who knows. Or in other words, leftovers.

Mixed seafood incorporated into asparagus and tomato as a salad. Eaten with olive ciabatta rolls.

My wife made a Greek style Mahi Mahi dish (garlic, olive oil, and herbs) with a side of vegetable fried rice. A weird combo, but very good.

With her help I prepared black marinade yesterday morning so we shall be having pork ribs this evening.

The ribs were very good....... And the bones went for the dogs.

I cannot take any credit for them. I just sat on the stoep feeling sorry for myself and moaning.

(with a beer, of course).
