Meal Fifteen: Chicken Spiedies

Back together again... for good eats!  I had heard of Spiedies before, from my dear friend Noogit, who enjoyed them while rooting for the Fightin' Irish.  Eyeore had speiedie history from her time in upstate NY.  I think our meal was a successful homage. Chicken Spiedies on a nice soft roll - grilled if you wish!  With the marinade and drizzle sauce made the night before, Eeyore had time for a busy side dish - Roasted Salt & Vinegar Potatoes .  I will admit this is not typically my favorite flavor combo, but these were VERY good.  This was a meal of no leftovers! Blueberry pie from berries harvested this week was the perfect dessert.  We enjoyed the thunderstorm from the protection of the sunporch- even had a little amphibian visitor on the back door!

Meal Fourteen: Crunchy Fish

We Super-Sized ourselves this time.... Momma Anne brought  sunflowers, the ladies of Four Rivers brought lovely dessert- homemade ice cream!-  and our chef prepared another perfect rendition of our favorite Panko Crusted haddock !  YUM YUM.  Sides included broccoli slaw and potato salad- with a big helping of laughs!  I am hunting for ANY ideas to utilize my Mojito Mint harvest.... that is one happy plant!  I had found this recipe for popsicles , but felt it was lacking an important component - alcohol!  Pops taste nice and refreshing as is, but muddled into a highball glass with some light rum and fizzy water, they truly shine!  Our magic legged bartender strikes again. A lovely summer evening.
