what did YOU eat last night? (new pics almost every night)

bc · Jul 20, 2005

I'm hoping this could be a perpetual thread, with everyone describing what they had for dinner. Then we could mooch ideas off of each other!<BR><BR>I'll start. Last night, I didn't get home till 9, and I wasn't sure if I wanted breakfast or dinner food, so I compromised and made a fritata at the suggestion of #cooking. <BR>View image: http://gallery.jumpyfroggy.com/albums/food/2383_fritata_19jul05.sized.jpg <BR><BR>I cooked up some crumbled hot italian sausage, added some chopped bell pepper, then covered that with some eggs+cream (lightly beaten), then topped with cheddar and feta cheese. I baked it in the oven for about 20 minutes at 325, then broiled it for a few minutes to brown the top.<BR><BR>The night before, this was my dinner (as posted in Draccy's dinner thread):<BR>View image: http://gallery.jumpyfroggy.com/albums/food/2380_baconscallops_18jul05.sized.jpg <BR><BR>Bacon-wrapped scallops in a white-wine cream sauce, served with rice, and baby spinach (which also had some chopped bacon)<BR><BR>And, this weekend, I had steak and potatoes. <BR>View image: http://gallery.jumpyfroggy.com/albums/food/2377_steakntaters_17jul05.sized.jpg <BR><BR>The steak was cooked on the lovely charcoal grill (natural lump charcoal), and the potatoes have blue cheese and bacon.

Shit, I didn't eat anything, just some very stout beer. Nice fritata, you need to teach me how to make that too -- View image here: http://episteme.arstechnica.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif --

AmigaPhreak · Jul 20, 2005

I had ***** for dinner last night.<BR><BR>Quite tasty. I deviated from my usual tomato puree, so it was a little more watery than I like. Also, I found out that one of the onions I was going to use had since developed some mold on it. I'm going to have to start hanging them instead of leaving them in my cupboard.<BR><BR>Sorry, no pic.

blath · Jul 20, 2005

I had baked salmon with rice last night. Prepared by a highly experience chef. It was yummy. <br><br>(poverty/street cred note: I didn't have anything really to eat previously that whole day. Except maybe 15 pistacio nuts and a bowl of white rice and 2.5 glasses of water. I'm really teh poor.) -- View image here: http://episteme.arstechnica.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif --

We ordered take-out from a local smokehouse. Brisket stuffed potatoes, caesar salad, pasta with grilled chicken and scallions, black bean chilli. My ten month old son got to eat steak last night for the first time. I wish I saw the thread before dinner so you could see his face when he got to pick up hunks of meat.

snotnose · Jul 20, 2005

Last night was grilled chicken with Emeril's seasoning (homemade, search the foodtv website). Tonight will be sauteed scallops on top of pasta tossed in olive oil.<BR><BR>Plus the usual helpings of broccoli, corn on the cob, a couple mangos, a papaya, and a muskmellon.<BR><BR>Tomorrow? Well, lets just say that tonight I'm gonna dump a heap o' yummy stuff into a crockpot, leave it in the fridge overnight, and slo-cook myself a huge pot of chili all day. Yum!

Tommyjoe · Jul 20, 2005

Went to the local Applebee's and had a spinach salad with shrimp. I was a bit surprised at the overall quality of it. Think they might have gone a bit overboard on the dressing, but otherwise it was pretty darn good.

XxOmegaxX · Jul 20, 2005

Lets see, Rice and pork. Quite tasty.

Raqem · Jul 20, 2005

I forgot to eat dinner last night.<BR><BR>In fact, I forgot to eat breakfast yesterday as well. Stupid body, let me know when you're (I'm) hungry!

kleshas · Jul 20, 2005

I went out, which is rare.<BR>I had szechuan chicken noodle stir fry, a glass of shiraz and a Glenmorangie. 'Twas a good meal.

<br>No sympathy. I think my body lets me know when <b>anyone else</b> is hungry. That's why I wear XXLs. I like that frittata; next time give us an interior shot like on the Food Channel-- View image here: http://episteme.arstechnica.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif --.

<br>I did take an interior shot, but it wasn't that impressive. I should have used more egg mixture, because it was kind of thin.

<br><br>It wasn't crappy, it was quite tasty, thank you very much.<br><br>But I really, really don't like cooking, so on the rare night when the GF isn't home for dinner, I usually go for something easy. Plus, all the things I know how to really cook are geared for 2+ people and are hard to reduce portions on. *shrug*
