Meal Twelve: Pasta Carbonara with Corn and Chiles

Back to Basics!!  A variety of reasons lead to Dory, Bubbles and I recreating the original team and enjoying Pasta Carbonara with Corn and Chiles.

A nice simple meal of pasta, salad and bread... reminiscent of the days before we used to test our beloved chef with complexity!  The corn actually seemed to lighten this normally heavy dish and the chiles added nice kick.  Chef's Note:  would reserve more than an single cup of pasta water to have available ... a bit more would have been great to lighten the sauce.

We enjoyed ourselves,  and of course look forward to the return of the the full team!

Meal Seven : Pork Chops with Tomato Gravy

This meal had a few doubters at the start, but it was a big success.  Pork Chops with Tomato Gravy served over Cheese Grits ... southern goodness from a Yankee chef! The king kutter provided perfectly shredded cheese- as usual.

Meal Three: Pasta Bar

Pasta Bar gives plenty of yummy options our different eaters. There was even a special Birthday cupcake for my little guy... Banana with Peanut Butter Frosting homemade by T!

Meal Seventeen: Mm-possible Cheeseburger Pie

  This was a favorite of Tigger's growing up. His Grandma would make it for him and even gave me copy of the recipe with her added notes (more cheese ... sometimes I leave off the tomatoes...) .    Tigger has been missing his grandpa recently as he refinishes his old drafting table, so a little homage was a good solution.   Its more known as Impossibly Easy Cheeseburger Pie today and some sauteed corn worked right along side. Hooray for childhood treats!
