@Shelby - I meant to ask - re: the corned beef sandwich kit.  How was the cole slaw?  I can't get my head around a mail order salad.  Did it come dressed?  Or did you do that part?  Inquiring minds.  

It was pretty good...needed some salt.  It was a creamy slaw and yes, it came dressed in a plastic container in a cooler type thing with ice packs.

I meant from bees that gather from the plants or mixed in fruit in some form. Like when we say clpver or orange

Just asked the owners.  They are from bees that gather from the plants though they also do some infused honey.  They said they are constantly moving the hives around and use limited hives in an area.  Course in south Jersey its easy to find acres of blueberries to glean from.

Charlie always wants Mac &Cheese with steak.  The steaks were in the freezer waiting for an event that didn't happen.   We also had squash stuffed with rice, onion, corn, poblano pepper and cheese. 

[Raamo]

We like AB's Shakshuka so much we've made it a few times.

 

 

This is just my 3 eggs, my wife eats 2 eggs.  We only put 5 in.

It makes more then the 2 of us can eat so we save the left over sauce and eat with Nan and it's very tasty.

I'll just take that squash as my meal

Grilled Double Cheeseburger with Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, Mayo and Yellow Mustard on a toasted Ciabatta Bun

Husband asked for naked sliced cucumber which he would address

He had designs on Blenheim apricot balsamic and blood orange olive oil brought by recent dinner guests.    I didn't get a taste...so I guess it worked.

 

Sausage and pepper pasta.   

 

Excellent.

Yes, battered and deep fried!  

Actually my onion rings were breaded and oven baked 😊

Still not healthy by any means. But I am not brave enough to deep fry anything at home.

That's looks delicious, the recipe also seems to be well spiced (thought personally, I'd skip the lemon).

Shakshuka sauce keeps well, I always makes double or triple batches. Makes a great weekday dinner - just throw in an egg

Saturday evening: family wanted to go for Thai. Searched for a decent restaurant, found it, made reservations and was getting ready to leave. Wife returns from the cellar, still unpacking boxes from Hong Kong, and had found our Raclette grill, so ... change of plans - and actually a quite happy one, as we had copious amounts of cheese and cold cuts at home !

Would love to hear more about your method!  They look fantastic.

 

I have tried a few times to do baked onion rings (fries I have down pat) but have had mixed results...

You put whatever you like (e.g. cold cuts, fruit, potatoes, mushrooms) into individual little pans and top them with raclette cheese (or other varieties). Then you put it into the raclette grill, which is a broiler with a strong top heating element, that will melt the cheese over the content of your pan. The broiler coil is directly under the metal cover, which in turn gets pretty hot and is used for roasting bread, or frying bacon ...

 

Ox tongue (cured and boiled) is easily available at any butcher. I do love it as waferthin slices piled on top of rye bread with some dijonnaise or sometimes horseradish mayo ...

It snowed here last night so I made soup for supper.  Two kinds, because of course no one can agree on what ingredients they like 🙄  Creamy chicken, mushroom, and mini gnocchi

 

 

Pumpkin and apple with bacon-pumpkin seed granola

 

 

Both recipes from the Half Baked Harvest cookbooks

[BeeZee]

No photos, dinner at home last night also. Pan seared tuna that I had briefly marinated in soy/lime/ginger, oven roasted broccoli and garnet sweet potato (microwaved sweet potatoes until softened a bit, cut in to 1/2" thick circles, sprinkle of ancho chili, salt, and one drop of honey on top of each before roasting).

Noma Seefood Season

 

I like Seafood and even more to Seefood and we decided to hit Seafood Season at Noma post NYE festivities to start 2020 on a high.

 

Copenhagen was cold - wet and windy and I was jet lagged and sleepy but the show must go on as instructed by my loving wife....... and you have not met my MIL yet......
