Don't know what's for dinner tonight, but since I'm taking the day off, my full-blooded Italian wife making spaghetti and meatballs for lunch. The sauce is home-made from her mother's recipe. Lunchtime can't get here fast enough.
grilled rib eye's, fresh sauteed green beans, marinated cucumbers. sweet tea. the veggies are from my dad's garden.
Went to giant HEB and bought 4 redfish fillets and 2 lb. of shrimp. Don't ask how much it cost... Then made redfish and shrimp courtboullion, mmmm mmmmm... 6 fresh tomatoes, 2 onions. My daughter gave me a New Orleans restaurant book she found cheap, it was written in 1967. Great history on the dozen best known restaurant names in NO, plus lots of their famous old recipes. I'll work through some of that stuff.
what is the title of it? i collect old cookbooks. several are from the 40's and 50's. i'll have to look and see what my oldest one is. i had grilled ribeye, grilled corn basted with garlic butter, loaded baked potato. i feel like a beached whale! but a happy one. :grin:
Steak. Blackened in a cast iron skillet. Nothing else. They were too friggin huge. Washed it down with a couple Abita Wheats...
Late Lunch at Shucks in Abbeville and leftovers for dinner. Oysters Rokerfeller Onion Rings Stuffed Oysters and Stuffed Crawfish platter
That sounds GREAT! You have an eclectic palate (and that's a good thing!). From yesterdays posts, we're all eating pretty good!
