What's for dinner Wednesday 2/3/2016? - Mare749 - 02-03-2016
Busy day today, so posting while I have my coffee. Wednesday is the day that I take my mother-in-law to the senior center for exercise classes, lunch, then crafts. That said, I like to keep meals simple on that day.
So, this morning I assembled the ingredients for Mongolian Beef in the crockpot. We will have steamed rice and snow peas with that. (There are some sliced carrots in the recipe)

I'm having either pancakes with bacon on the side or quiche. Up in the air at the moment.

TOnight we're having Orecchiette Della Nonna. It's delicious and makes a ton, so we have leftovers ready for freezer diving.

Oh my, Karyn! That one is copied and saved! One question...do you make it as written? The amount of olive oil seems overdone?

Tony is gone so I should probably just take advantage of that and make something easy like breakfast.

Lordie, reading the recipe, can't see why all that oil. I wouldn't!

No, there is no way I'd use all of that olive oil! I did use a fair amount, but less than 1/4 cup for the salt pork, and greatly reduced the remaining half cup...maybe 2-3 tablespoons? Regardless, I refrigerated the entire batch overnight and skimmed off the congealed fat. It's still not diet-friendly, but it's not the dietary disaster that it might be, and it is really good.
