Leftover pork chop and cheesy broccoli rice. No canned soup was harmed (or opened) in the making of it. Also, chocolate peanut tart, with potato chip crust.

A true Cajun meal has a three starch minimum, and I’m showing restraint by having only two. Potato salad is commonly paired with gumbo. Some people serve it on the side, and some plop it right in the bowl. If you live in the parish (county) north of me, you might have a baked sweet potato with, or in your gumbo, but those people are crazy. 😜

In south Louisiana, there are people who pair rice with anything and everything, including chili. More people pair it with cornbread (on the side). I’m not sure how regional that is. Personally, my favorite way is with Fritos, unless it’s chili made with chunks instead of ground meat.

Ham and pepper jack with arugula on toasted seedy bread. The guac is from Fresh Market, and spicy.

Would one of y’all reach out and wipe the sides of that bowl? It’s making me crazy.-

@Shelby– your Suzi story made me smile. She did the same thing for me – mailed me something she knew I was curious about. When you run out of the Rice A Roni mix, let me know – our stores are full of the stuff. I could do worse than follow in those footsteps ❤️.
@weinoo – I have to agree about the stemless glasses. Neither Jessica nor I can use them. We can’t get a good hold on them at all. Neither of us has weirdly tiny hands, but we never feel like we’re holding them securely. It’s too bad, too, because someone gave us a lovely set that are beautifully thin and have an “S” etched on the side.
Last night was a classic Sunday roast dinner. Five and a half pound rib roast:
Thank God for @Shelby, who responded to my timing questions so that I could get this done properly. I was already using her favorite method (Kenji’s reverse sear), but needed some specific guidance.
I got a perfect medium-rare:
Thank you, Shelby!
Sliced with roast potatoes:
Horseradish sauce and gravy:
Sauteed Brussels sprouts with saba:
Yorkies:
Plate before the gravy:
All served on my new (to me) Desert Rose dishes!
Edited to add this question: When I was a kid, I remember my mom getting a LOT of melted fat under her roast which she then used to make her Yorkies. I got nothing. Is that because it was cooked at such a low temperature for most of the time? Because there was a really good fat cap that went nowhere.
Not to take away from the deliciousness of your meal (and it’s gorgeous), but I see you have some Desert Rose pieces that I don’t have. Is the square (or rectangular) piece a platter? Should we discuss it elsewhere?-

Last night we had tarbais beans with ham, chowchow, jalapeño cornbread, fried chicken tenders. (The first batch of cornbread was tossed because I’d grabbed cornstarch instead of baking powder and the result was bad. Second batch was from a mix.)
Tonight , I crisped up the leftover chicken in the air fryer for chicken biscuits. Since I’m a terrible biscuit maker, I baked some frozen Grand’s buttermilk biscuits. Arugula and spinach salad with goat cheese and toasted pecans with balsamic. I added sriracha to some if the vinaigrette as topping for the chicken.

Use cornstarch instead of baking powder in cornbread. 😪
At least I hope I never...
Flat. Dense. In the trash can.

So what did everyone else have?
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Please don’t bahn mi for inaccuracy! (Or bad pronunciation for the sake of a pun.)
My husband usually grills our steaks, but last night I did them in an iron skillet. It’s been quite awhile and I didn’t get a good outer crust. The interior was still nice! With wild and brown rice, peas.
Maggie approved!

I’m not sure if I want to be you or Moe

Baked buttermilk biscuits this morning.
Im not sure if I want to be you or Moe when I grow up. Well, considering my age, maybe I should say “in my next life,” instead.

@Kim ShookI made them from leftover risotto and I watched a Bon Appetit video to see the process. I’d made them once before and they were a complete failure. These were good! Molly Baz making arancini.
I made a super easy soup with store bought cheese tortellini, Italian sausage, spinach and mushrooms. The recipe called for kale, but I like spinach better. Anyway, super easy and flavorful!
And a couple of days ago, my husband’s favorite comfort food. Pot roast, rice and gravy, baby limas, pickled beets (not homemade), sliced cucumbers.

There is a TJ’s about 60 miles away, which wouldn’t be terrible if I-10 between Lafayette and Baton Rouge weren’t a traffic nightmare due to road construction and a 20 mile bridge that gets backed up horrifically when there is an accident. TMI?ETA: I’m on my phone and clicked something that made Kim’s quote disappear!

I just saw these dishes somewhere.... @Kim Shook
?
Desert Rose is a very popular pattern. It was first made in 1942 by Franciscan Ware and I think it’s still being made, although maybe not the same company. I bought it second hand.-

@patti, maybe try freezing a few of those peanut butter pretzels (and then eat them frozen). There may be more potential ...
Thanks, I’ll try that!
@rotuts I have no idea what the association is between these pretzel nuggets and something Spanish.🤷♀️

Peanut butter pretzel nuggets from Costco. They were better in my pre-purchase imagination, but they’re fine.

I thought I was thawing boneless, skinless chicken thighs. I thought wrong. Seasoned with a shawarma blend and baked. Coconut jasmine rice and salad.
