What did you have for dinner II?

[Vjcvette]

Some pulled pork pulled from the freezer, a Bird’s Eye frozen loaded potato something, and FINALLY, a recipe for collard greens that I like! (from scratch-ish):

very, very tasty, wine for her and north coast old stock ale

It is Monday

And every boy from Louisiana knows that two things happen on Monday: you wash you sheets and you make red beans and rice

Nice! Where do you find the Camellias? Do you have to go the Amazon route?

 

[ReadCT]

Yup

Amazon. I buy them 12 pounds at a time. I make red beans every other Monday. Rinse and repeat. Double batch

RB&R is the comfort food of my life

The other kicker to my red bean and rice is the good rice

 

[Tin Man]

Exie salad: leftover mushroom risotto on a bed of fresh spinach topped with leftover chicken, onions, celery, and avocado






Edit: yeah, I had 1/2 a sleeve of thin mints

Finally ate at Connor’s seafood and steakhouse in Turkey Creek, Saturday night.
I had their 14oz Ribeye and a baked potato, with an order of their spicy shrimp for an appetizer. Really nice atmosphere and really good service. The food was great.

What brand of andouille?

(I no longer live in Knoxville and have access to the Shrimp Dock, so it's Bruce Aidell for me.)

Grab whatever andouille is available at Safeway

Sometimes it is Johnsonville. Today it was Safeway store brand

I really do not worry as much about the andouille as long as I have the good beans and the rice is on point

I throw in a couple smoked ham hocks, enough cayenne to get the wife's attention, and chicken stock instead of water. Crystal Louisiana hot sauce of course

Having some Chicken gumbo for dinner this evening..

Man, I would love to make some gumbo. Good call

I have not seen okra in a grocery store here in Colorado in years. Not even frozen

I know this will sound like bragging but I make a pretty mean roux

First You Make a Roux. Name of his cookbook. Justin Wilson. I loved him

Find the cookbook to crush cajun cooking. Or 'Pirate's Pantry' if you can find a copy online. Probably out of print

 

[Tin Man]

Chicken & wild rice soup with a ham & Swiss cheese wrap, old fashioned ice cream sandwich for dessert
