What's for Dinner Tuesday, 6/7??

[cjs]

What's on everyone's menu today?

Our weather is changing....at least we had 4 days of spring. I'm playing with bread dough (2 batches working overnight) to make some mini/slider size buns, so will probably have sandwiches of some sort. AND, more artichokes!!

sure wish I had room to grow them, very rarely even see them in the stores here. We have a smorgasbord of catering leftovers, so it will be a real hodege podge tonight.

Tequila lime grilled/glazed chicken, yellow rice and a big salad (to take up that half of the plate).

[HomeCulinarian]

Pork tenderloin, Asian glaze and Best Bok Choy

[DFen911]

I have 2 small halibut filets that I think I'll grill

I've got alot of basil and some zukes that need to be used. I was thinking of making a pesto out of the basil and add to fried zukes and onion over linguine with some "lobster mates" or something like that.

I'm going to try to make Chicken Piccata (more lemons....OIY) with leftover salad.

Just wanted to pop back in to say this thrown together meal of stuff I needed to use before expiration, was in fact awesome!! I hope the basil keeps up the good work, I plan to make many more pesto combos over the summer, YUM

Well, I had a productive day - tried two bread recipes for mini-buns. One from a book I've had forever, Local Breads -




and this one from Chuck Love over on another forum - Slipper ciabatta -


both are very tasty, but I think the Local Bread buns held up better. I made French dip (with the jus from the roast -God, I wish I could duplicate that without cooking a big ole roast ) sandwiches and tested the rolls.

Those rolls look great Jean!

I'm struggling with caring about food in this heat, so we just had grilled chicken Caesar salad for dinner.
