What's for dinner tonight?

You must be a student.

Thinktank is no student. But he is making the point that empty food leaves us hungry, in his own style.

We're having meatloaf tonight.

Turkey is in the oven - will have that tomorrow. Tonight it's brown sugar glazed ham slices with mashed taters, steamed broccoli, asparagus and Brussel sprouts.

Sorry Queenie, won't touch meatloaf with a 10' pole. Hubby and rugrats love it, I hate it. And yes, they loved meatloaf sandwiches the next day if any was left.

[Queen K]

We make ours with finely chopped onion, garlic, carrots. Yes, carrot to add a veggie filling. Does not change the flavour.

We have not done a turkey at all, maybe for New Years Eve.

The only "meat-loaf" I like is tourtière - the French-Canadian meat-loaf pie

Scottish wife makes it perfectly, just as mama did - spooky!

...gotta have it with ketchup...SOON

Beef, pork, veal or a combination? Tell your wife that's an awesome looking pie.

Of course you have to have ketchup with it.

Oh God, being Scottish tell me she doesn't make haggis. Gramps made it every year and when he brought it up to the house I had more reasons why I couldn't partake. Sorry gramps, just getting ready to leave - have to do this or that - see you later.

Beef & veal

That pic I plucked off the internet - but close enough

Shes never made haggis - i dont mind at all.

[Bsuds]

I had Haggis once many years ago and I have no intention of having it again!

We had sweet and sour pork with noodles last night cooked in my new Lagostina enameled cast iron pot. Boy those pots are heavy!

Came out great.

Pot roast tonight.

[oneh2obabe]

Sudsy, what size pot did you get? Word to the wise - never ever fill it to the brim if you plan on lifting it off the stove or out of the oven.

I inherited a bunch of Lodge cast iron pots and skillets from granny. Dutch oven is great for making artisan breads in the oven or slow simmering stews and soups. Heavier than hell empty - need to flex your muscles a few times to remove them when full.

[Bsuds]

It's a 3.8 litre.

I saw a recipe for a no knead artisan bread that I want to try. It should work good for my Shepherds pie too.

I'll agree with all those.
As for garlic, I planted about 90 of them last fall. We go through a lot.
One other thing that's big on the list, your DNA.

And for supper tonight, there's a large pot of chicken on the stove right now and to it there will be added a large pot of polenta. Of course, washed down with a glass of red wine.

Tonight, I am having a small Pork tenderloin tail, in a fry pan, well seasoned with garlic, rosemary, +++

Home made apple sauce, leftover fried, mashed potatoes, and either corn or peas......I haven't decided yet.

We’re treating ourselves because it’s New Year’s Eve. So we’re having Steak Oscar, asparagus and baked potatoes with all the trimmings.
