backyardchef Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 (edited) Pot of Pintos simmering on the stove with a bunch of garlic, onion, smoked paprika, peppers, chicken stock and I'm gonna throw a chopped up hank of double smoked garlic kielbasa in there in an hour or so. Taunting me. Edited September 6 by backyardchef typo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maison rustique Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 I need to drag out the crockpot and cook some beans or lentils. You guys are making me hungry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephanieL Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 (edited) Speaking of lentils....N made a salad with RG's French green lentils last night. She first cooked them with shallots carrot, and bay leaves and then mixed the cooked lentils with sliced radish and cucumber and a whole-grain mustard, white balsamic, and olive oil dressing. The lentil mixture was then combined with arugula, roasted beets, smoked salmon, and a topping of mascarpone cheese, fresh dill, and dried Meyer lemon zest. Shelf-stable smoked salmon in those flat cardboard boxes is a great staple to keep in the pantry. Edited September 7 by StephanieL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maison rustique Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 My sister and her hubby were here yesterday afternoon/evening and took me out for an early supper at Osteria Bianchi a local place that is very good. It was a perfect weather day so we sat outside. The only photo I took was of my sis, her husband and wine. Everyone thinks my sister and I are the same person or twins, so it is almost like seeing me, except that I just got my haircut so hers is considerably longer than mine. Ha! I always love that since she's 9 years my junior. Anyway, I got so involved in enjoying the weather and wine that I forgot to take pix of food. We shared many things and had a couple of specials not on the menu--Little Gem Caesar salad, an eggplant pizza, a rolled lasagna noodle thing and the corn/mushroom pasta. And olive oil cake. My fridge is full of leftovers, so I'll be feasting all week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maison rustique Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 My food-gifting friend showed up yesterday with a ton of Mexican food. He was doing a segment for one of the local TV stations on the KC Taco Trail and I got to enjoy some of the benefits. I already had Italian leftovers from Saturday night, so I now have enough food to last me at least a week and maybe even more. I gorged myself on this last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

small h Posted September 19 Author Share Posted September 19 Corn, red pepper, onion, eggplant, steamer clams, Mexican oregano. This is what happens when I make a greenmarket run - I want to eat everything at once. Also salad. My Sungold plant isn't producing as much as last year, but it's doing alright. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
