Meal Six: Pasta Bar

Tis the season for variety... a little of this, a little of that.   12+ inches of snow the day before, rain the day after... weird.  In the spirit of flexibility, Pasta Bar!  While this meal looks simple on the surface, quick red sauce, pasta, toppings... it has quickly become known to the kitchen crew as "that meal with lots of dishes and pots!"  A challenge indeed.

Loved the pesto tortellini and ciabatta loaf from Trader Joes.. how lucky we are they are close by now!

Biggest fun was chatting about summer plans... Eeyore and Piglet are generously adding to our water enjoyment options- SuperMabel will have us giggling like fools!

Meal One: Pork Scaloppini

Friday, 01 January 2010 Recipe from Cook's County Review: fanastic might be one of best PD's ever

Meal Three: Chicken Thighs with Pancetta, White Beans, and Rosemary

  Very tasty winter fare, Chicken Thighs with Pancetta, White Beans and Rosemary made a good meal.  Israeli couscous and broccoli completed the plate. Fun this week: seeing how this tester recipe, Chicken Scarpaiello , was finally published - Chicken Scarpaiello.   Our version had more hot cherry peppers and more parsley,  Maybe we contributed to the final outcome! 

Meal Four: Panko Crusted Haddock Sandwhiches

Triumphant return of the biggest winner ("we're all winners!") in the history of Pity Dinner... the Lenten favorite.... Haddock Sandwiches.    Yum. Yum. Yum. Dory produced the best version yet and we all rejoiced.  She even made the aioli earlier in the week, so it was the tastiest ever. As with many great achievements, there are occasional losses.... goodbye dear spoon rest, we will miss you. We have modified the original recipe - we prefer haddock to cod and we prefer this sauce (use regular mayo - it's worth it!).  Ah, Friday fish season...
