  1. To kick off the weekend, a filet mignon on a bed of roasted onions with a red wine reduction.

    The sliced dish.

    Wow, both of these meals looks amazing.

    No more photo pics from me for a while. We had a break-in on Saturday and the basta&d took both of my cameras. He would have walked out the door with our laptop too if Moe hadn't walked in on him.

  2. My favourite way to prepare salmon is to top it with julienned carrots, celery and lemon zest, chopped shallots, garlic, parsley, seasoned with salt and pepper and drizzled with a little white wine and olive oil. Covered with a piece of buttered foil and baked in a hot oven for about 10 to 15 minutes.

    Ready for the oven

    Ready to eat

  3. Daniel Nice to see you posting again.

    That has to be the best-looking sandwich I have seen in a long time. The bread and chips look fabulous too. Great job.

    Thanks Blissful Glutton.

    They were probably Ann's.  Mine weren't that spectacular.

    I don't think so Marlene. Your cinnamon bun picture was the reason that I made them.

    mmmmm...skillet potatoes, quick, easy and hot!

    gallery_40237_4099_7635.jpg

    Gruzia, I'd be happy with just those potatoes. Yum!

    And, tonight, gallery_6263_35_79307.jpg

    Liver and onions!

    Susan If I could have anything on this page it would be your liver and onions. (With Gruzia's potatoes). I love Calf's liver but haven't had it in a while.

    We had a roast chicken dinner. The old standby.

  4. Octaveman's Mongolian Beef.

    Oh Marlene, I thought that was something that I wanted to try when I saw it the first time. Now I definitely have to make it.

    due to the asparagus thread we had asparagus risotto with white truffle oil tonight- it tasted like spring!

    412233199_638f4b3281.jpg

    Wendy, I guess I need to check out the asparagus thread. Your risotto looks delicious. I like the lighting in your photo too.

    I baked sourdough bread yesterday, and made a couple of smaller baguettes so I could make french dip sandwiches using the leftover prime rib from the night before. Served homemade warm potato chips on the side.

  5. I love homemade chicken fingers. I'll make up a whole tray of them to freeze and just take out a few at a time. I usually deep fry or pan fry. But you could bake these too.

    gallery_27944_2966_189614.jpg

    Chicken Fingers

    ===============

    Boneless Chicken Breasts

    Garlic

    Flour (seasoned with salt and pepper)

    Eggs beaten with a little water

    Fresh or dried bread crumbs ( I prefer fresh bread crumbs)

    Parmesan cheese

    .

    Puree the garlic on a microplane and rub the chicken. Cut the chicken

    into fingers and dip into seasoned flour.

    Dip into the egg and then coat with the bread crumbs seasoned with

    parmesan cheese.

    Pan fry, deep fry or place on a oiled baking sheet and bake.

    These freeze well too. Spread out in single layer on cookie sheet and

    freeze. When frozen pack in ziplock bags or freezer containers.

  6. Thanks Marlene. I have a rib roast out for tonight. Pre-salted it yesterday. I might even cook some carrots for Moe to have with his slice and just maybe Yorkshire Pudding.

    Lucylou gorgeous ravioli.

  7. Oh Marlene, I'm imagining a slice of your cake for breakfast.

    I have to tell you though, I'm a little disappointed that you didn't post a picture of the roast after it was carved. Your prime rib is always perfectly cooked.

    Ann

  8. I want some of Marlene's and Lucylou's Potatoes Dauphonaise, Shaya's Tangerine Peel Beef, Kim's Peach-Cherry Crisp and Dianne's Roast Pork. Sooooo Good!

    We had Grilled Chicken Fajita's for dinner. Homemade flour tortillas, salsa and guacamole .

  9. Ann, what's the glaze on your buns? I don't see that on the bread in the link. I think yours are much prettier :smile:

    Klary, usually I want a nice 'crusty' crust. But in this case I wanted it a little softer so I brushed the buns with butter when they first came out of the oven.

    These make wonderful sandwich buns too. We had tuna, tomato and lettuce sandwiches for an early lunch today.

    Ann

  10. I've never had homemade burger buns! these look awesome, like brioche a bit?

    Wendy, These aren't "brioche like". Just one tablespoon of butter and no eggs. You can find the recipe for them here:

    The Fresh Loaf

    The only adjustment I made was to leave out the sage. I used fresh rosemary and because the butter wasn't included in the directions, I mixed it into the potato when I mashed it.

    I've got beans soaking to make the escarole and beans for dinner tonight.

    Ann

  11. This is the braised escarole with beans from Molly Stevens All about Braising. I cannot praise this dish enough! Here it is 3 days after it was first made, by now it has been reheated a couple of times and the texture has suffered a bit, but not the flavor. It is truly amazing how a dish of greens&beans can taste so utterly wonderful.

    gallery_21505_2929_71088.jpg

    I keep coming back to look at Klary's beans and escarole and Nishla's Chili. They both look so good.

    I made homemade hamburger buns today so we could have burgers and fries for dinner.

    Marcia.

    Marcia I love pork carnitas. Looks delicious. I'll have to check out that cookbook.

    Marlene Dinner looks great. Peas are my standby when I haven't gone out to pick up anything fresh. They just seem to go so well with mashed potatoes and gravy. The only frozen veggie I keep on hand.

    I owe you a thank you. I kept going back yesterday to look at your cinnamon rolls. Couldn't resist baking them today. I had some white chocolate sauce leftover from the weekend so I mixed it up with some powdered sugar to drizzle over the rolls.

    gallery_27944_2966_250682.jpg

  13. Thanks Bruce.

    Diane Beautiful Popovers.

    Wendy What a marvelous dinner from start to finish.

    Ann: What are those delectable little puffs next to the fish? They look great.

    Blissful Glutton, those are Parisienne Potatoes.

    Tonight's dinner: I had a friend over for dinner. BF made braised pork shanks with corona beans in a marzano sauce. The shanks were incredibly tender and had wonderful flavor. Paired with a Las Rochas 2001.

    402971573_9f5924a4f9.jpg

    I keep coming back to look at this pork shank. Makes my mouth water.

    Dessert was the cinnamon rolls I made from Bread Baker's Apprentice today:

    gallery_6080_205_71973.jpg

    Marlene I'd love one of your cinnamon buns for breakfast. YUM!!

    Lovebenton, and now I have a craving for Mexican.

    Diner food at our house tonight. Buttermilk fried Chicken. I've been craving fried chicken since I saw Kim's picture last week.

    gallery_27944_2966_655155.jpg

  14. I topped it off with a couple "garnishes" of diced avacados, cheddar cheese, blue corn tortilla chips, parmesan bread crisps and sour cream. (I know, couldn't leave well enough alone, lol)

    chili_complete.jpg

    OOOOH that is the best looking bowl of chili. I love all your garnishes.

    We had Macadamia crusted Halibut with a Citrus sauce for dinner tonight.

    gallery_27944_2966_143077.jpg

    And Chocolate Pear tarts with Blackberry Coulis for dessert.

    gallery_27944_2966_252927.jpg

  15. Last night's nights dinner of schnitzel, braised red cabbage, potatoes & salad:

    gallery_23864_4213_83321.jpg

    Forest Schnitzel is a favourite. Yours looks so good. Great sides.

    Lovebenton Beautiful loaf of sourdough.

    Dinner tonight was inspired by Marlene. Peppercorn Steak with Homemade French fries. Been craving Peppercorn steak all week.
