Ham & Rice Casserole along with Sourdough Garlic Bread

Clam Chowder !!

Bacon and Cheezit thing...

That paints an interesting mental picture.

Tonights dinner is Jennifer Cornbleet's Garden Vegetable Soup - it's incredibly creamy and green and it's currently my #1 Fave Raw Food dish.

Wot's In It?
1/2 zucchini
1/2 ripe tomato
1/2 celery stalk
1/2 cup chopped spinach
3 fresh basil leaves
1/2 spring onion
1/2 clove garlic
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoons Shiro (white) Miso
Dash of cayenne
Dash of Salt
1/2 an avocado
3/4 cup water

Blend all together. I like to warm it gently to about 40°c

Cheers dears !

A Big Boy Combo with side salad (Bob's famous Bleu Cheese dressing of course) followed by a shared Hot Fudge Cake.

Even with basically ignoring the fries, I pretty much rolled out of Bob's.

Last night I made chicken cordon bleu and it turned out really well. i love panko bread crumbs, they just make everything crunchier!

Another way to make just about anything crunchier is to leave it sitting out on the counter for a few days.

Sorry, that theory is totally busted for Cookies and Icecream.

This was from a few nights ago:

Persimmon Steak:

2 ripe persimmons, cut into ~1inch chunks
2 cup red wine, or enough to cover persimmons in pot (I used merlot)
2 Tblsp water
1tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp all purpose flour

Add persimmon, water and spices to a small sauce pot over medium heat. Bring water to boil, turning the persimmon chunks with a spoon to start them heating evenly. Once the water is simmering, add the wine, then whisk in flour, and bring back up to a boil. Turn heat down, cover, and allow to simmer for ~20 minutes, until wine reduces and thickens so that it coats the persimmons, and persimmons are very tender. Uncover towards the end to speed up wine reduction.

Serve over steak. Grilled NY with just salt and pepper works.
