What did you cook or eat today (August 2025)?

[Barriehie]

I have all these chili's from my garden:

badjak suggested making sambal so all the chili's, a bulb of homegrown garlic, some shallots, two tomatoes with the bad parts pared off, some leftover cilantro, salt, palm sugar, golden syrup, and two habaneros were run through the food processor and cooked in a pan of sunflower oil.

Made a full jar!

Thank you! It's hot enough to go anywhere and I can always add more heat via sauce for whatever I'm eating.

Caprese salad with roasted red bell pepper, rather than tomato. Chunks of cantaloupe wrapped with prosciutto. Deviled eggs made with mayo, dijon, finely diced mortadella and chives, Parmigiano Reggiano, garnished with a rolled strip of mortadella and chopped chives.

I just ate the sammmich I made on the spur of the moment a beef tomato and onion with lots s and p.
I should have put cheese with it.
But it was good.

Don't feel much like eating today. My meds are really upsetting my stomach today. I guess gotta take the good with the bad.
Maybe some bland potato (mashed or microwaved) with butter or some buttered pastina.

Had one of those small/individual Bob Evans original mashed potato cups with butter.

Baked potatoes. Corn and chicken breasts. I added a little fireweed honey in the corn. Tasty. The Chicken I basted with butter, thyme and oregano from the garden.
