How did your dinner turn out last night?
It was in the high 80's here so I made a big salad:
spinach leaves, tomato, fennel, red onion, avocado, chickpeas and tuna fillet (the good Italian kind in oil) with a dijon/shallot vinaigrette. A hardboiled egg would have been perfect, wish I'd made some on Sunday when I was considering it.
Tonight is frozen pizzas b/c I need to clean and our exterminator is coming.

Yeah that's right my name's Yauch!
Re: How did your dinner turn out last night?
We unthawed chili from the freezer on Sunday for dinner since it was getting cold here again. Last night we used the chili to make a taco-ish salad. It was lovely. I added raw onions, celery, salsa, hot sauce, green chili sauce, and sour cream. Yum!
I do the same sometimes! Or with leftover taco meat.

We were going to have regular BBQ chicken, but H decided to make buffalo style bbq chicken instead. He made two different sauces - mine was more bbq and less hot sauce than his was. Instead of regular drumsticks he got the smaller legs and wings.
They came out really, really well, and I ate way more than I should have.
Well, besides the fact that I managed to cut my index finger and it would NOT stop bleeding, it was good. :P
We also had a salad - spiced chicken with romaine, black beans, corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, baked tortilla strips, cheese and a salsa/ranch/sour cream dressing.

I did piperade (peppers, tomatoes, onions and spanish smoked paprika) sauteed and put it on toasted ciabatta with goat cheese. I think i should have gutted the ciabatta...way too much bread.
And then a romaine salad with clementines, olives and peppadew peppers. That turned out well.

You should try your own marinades sometime! Usually when you buy plain tenderloin you get two in the package so I usually separate them and then individually freeze in a marinade (so that as they thaw they marinade). Also cheaper and healthier than the pre-marinaded ones.

oh my goodness. I am so sorry. Thoughts going out to you.
