What's For Dinner?? T.G.I.F. - cjs - 02-06-2009

Before I tackle the freezer to see whats up, I'll wait to hear what you all are doing... you seem to change my mind so often.

I had to clean out the freezer to make room for the Sunday Gravy, and found a small boned leg of lamb. Not sure what kind of potatoes I'll do, but I also have some Brussel Sprouts I think I'll roast.

Leftover Macs N Cheese with fried uncured beef hot dogs from Whole Foods!

Used Cabot's Extra Sharp Cheddar this time and boy did that perk up the flavor!

Well I am on a homemade pasta kick now. I plan to make garganelli.

Now typically you need a garganelli comb, which I do not have, but you can sub a gnocchi board.'

I may also have to add Jean's Brussel Sprouts and Bacon to the fresh pasta. (I just thought of that now).

I'm impressed with your eggrolls and now pasta, Laura!

Friday night is dinner out after ballroom dance class... I'm thinking Italian sounds good, but we'll jave to see what our friends want to do.

It's cold here, nothing to do but cook these days. I went to the library and got a great book with loads of ideas and recipes called: Pasta Italia. Totally gave me the pasta bug. And those aren't MY pictures of garganelli, I found them with lots of info online.

THis is the book: [Image: 51S8VBY92YL._SL500_AA240_.jpg]

I will have to add this one to my collection. There are tons of pictures, and that really inspires me to make a dish.

They also had a recipe called Testaroli. Sort of the Italian version of the crepe (that is cut up into bite-sized diamond shapes) and served with butter and parmesan or pecorino. Sometimes pesto.

I'll have to check the library for that one. . . . or Amazon!

I don't know what we're having yet. Still working on the first cup of coffee. More later

I just checked at Amazon. It's selling for 22.76. Not bad for a price. I need a few more cookbooks. Some of mine are getting old. Maybe I will go through them today and see what I no longer want. (And make room for more!)


Re: What's For Dinner?? T.G.I.F. - cjs - 02-06-2009

"I need a few more cookbooks." oh yeah, me too.

Laura, those look so great - I don't have a garganelli comb, but I do have a gnocchi board!! How fun!

I'm getting mine for 2.49 I've been having really good results from the used book sellers on Amazon.
