What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

[woodworkingboy]

Smoked duck is good too. Particularly with beer. Duck tends to be more oily than other fowl that gets consumed.

It's been a long time since I've had me a mess of speckly frogs!

 

[flushcut]

I do love me sum frogs legs!
Home made pizza for us tonight.

I'll just toss some tomatoes and assorted other veggies in the frying pan tonight and eat it with pasta and cheese.( One set of son and daughter inlaws came up this weekend and brought ½ a suitcase of Swiss cheeses for me).
Nothing like eating a bunch of homegrown vegetables, that are so fresh they have barely realized , they are dead, yet.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Lucky bastid.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I'd love all of that plus a nice NY steak!

I made my favourite tomato soup tonite.

I'll share the recipe if any of you have a surplus of tomatoes ( Willie))

Grease a deep baking pan ( Olive oil, NOT lard )
Fill it with thick slices of fresh peppers ( I use Anaheim, if I wasn't cooking for the mail order bride, I'd add some jalapenos), tomatoes in chunks, quartered onions and whole garlic cloves.
Put some olive oil on the onions and garlic, so they don't get burned and sprinkle salt and pepper over the whole mess.

Bake at high heat for at least 1½ hours, long enough to glaze the onions.
Put it in a blender/food processor and puree the whole lot.
Ad water until the consistency suit your taste.
Reheat and eat.
We ( being ½ Swiss) put slices of goat cheese in it, warm goat cheese ROCKS!

I am saving that recipe, Stig. It sounds real nice, thanks.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Could you add milk instead of water?

 

[MasterBlaster]

You can ALWAYS use milk instead of water.

well, most of the time...

 

[stig]

Probably.
Might make it look kinda funny, though.
A bit of red wine is good, too.

Wife sometimes likes to put sour cream on top of it.

 

[FireFighterZero]

The classic tomato soup around here is chunky and has milk in it.

Not a puree type job.

Still, its interesting to see what others like. Its the only thing we have in common.

 

[FireFighterZero]

In about 8 hours this should be ready.

Sure smells good now.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Oh, hail yea!

 

[Buddy]

That looks good Jim. I'm about to starve to death sitting here waiting on dinner and that ain't helpin'.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Just pulled it apart and will let it sit a while.

Toast some buns and get after it in a few minutes.

 

[Buddy]

You're killing me, that looks awesome!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

[CurSedVoyce]

[MasterBlaster]

Never a pic of Big Jim!

 

[FireFighterZero]

Nobody wants to see a picture of me eating!

 

[MasterBlaster]

Was that one plate all you had?

I'd need two, for sure.
