Meatloaf and vegetables, but that's just an excuse to have dessert.

Tonight is Chicken and paneer cheese both cubed and marinated all day in a mix of yogurt, lemon juice, garlic powder and garam masala then skewered with slices of bell pepper and grilled until golden brown.

Served over rice with a side serve of peeled and sliced cucumber swimming in the same yogurt mixture noted above.

When I worked as a camp counselor in college....we had buttered rice with cinnamon sugar on it for breakfast once a week. As a counselor, it was mandatory that I eat at least 3 "Girl Scout bites"....it really wasn't bad. Was a whole lot easier for me to eat than regular cereal which I detest.

I had that in pre-school and day care during the summers. I absolutely love that stuff. Only thing is, the stuff I had was rice, butter & sugar. Whenever I make plain white rice, I like to have some for dessert.

Tonight was haloumi cheese browned and served over a "salad".

Salad was comprised from asparagus, and green beans, fried until warm and slightly soft but still crispy with sliced portabelo mushrooms and quartered tomato, both fried until warm and soft.

I used some caper-lemon dressing over the lot.

Tonight iw chicken Kiev (from the Super Target---it was on sale). We're just going to bake it and I'm making some fresh corn on the cob. I'm also going to make a lot of asparagus, as they were having a sale at the local Amish fresh market and I need to use it up before it gets bad. I'll melt a little butter for the asparagus in the pan, then combine with white onions and fresh mushrooms and some fresh taragon from my herb garden. I can't believe how the herbs last here in Florida. I left my herb pots outside all winter and still have the fresh basil, rosemary, tarragon and chives from last year.

I picked up something called bacon and tomato salad at the deli.  It looks like some kind of macaroni salad.

Buffalo chicken pizza. It was tasty. But not as tasty as my girlfriend's fettuccine Alfredo that we had last night. She spices it up somehow (not sharing the recipe with me) and it's freaking awesome. One of the upsides to dating a Jewish-Italian girl from New York.  :yahoo:

I had some small chunks of tenderloin beef calling my name, so I did a very simple marinade and let 'em soak for about an hour, then mounted 'em on bamboo skewers with chunks of bell pepper, red onion, yellow and red pepper, and grilled it all.

Did up some sauteed onions, peppers, and mushrooms for a veggie of sorts, and that's what we had tonight.

A cup of soy sauce, a tablespoon of sugar, and a little ginger = instant Chinese takeout.

I'm having some sort of frozen turkey dinner.

SR grilled some chicken legs. I made a salad that I saw in today's Sarasota paper---it was so simple. You take 2 cans of garbanzo beans, drained, dice 2 whole tomatoes, 1/2 chopped red onion, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tbsp of lemon juice (I had bottled lime juice in the house and used that) and 1/2 cup feta cheese. I didn't have the feta cheese, so sprinkled in a bunch of parmesan cheese. You add salt and pepper and it's delicious and easy to make. I had a half avacado, so diced that into it, too.

I also sauteed some fresh broccoli, mushrooms, red onion and red pepper. I put a peanut sauce on it that I got at Whole Foods. It was very tasty.
