I made Gumbo with chicken, shrimp, and sausage. Topped it with hot sauce and washed it down with some beers.

Tonight I steamed an artichoke for 35 minutes, and made a quick and easy aioli sauce to go with it.

Artichokes are essentially a thistle, and look like this:



They are fun to eat!  Try one if you have never had any before.

Okay, so the portabello mushroom and swiss veggie patties may not have been the healthiest for both my boyfriend and I, BUT I did roast some vegetables in the oven: lightly oiled veggies with pepper, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt, and baked in the oven at 400 degrees until just scorched to bring out the flavours. We had broccoli, carrots and peppers!

Mmmm, portabellos....

Yes, especially when they are in burgers... THEN they are absolutely mouthwatering cakes of deliciousness!!

That absolutely does not look fun to eat. What is wrong with you people?  geesh...

Some more from Pati's Mexican Table:



I forget the exact names of the recipes, but it's the creamy corn chowder (ouch! it's hot! My sinuses are clear now!) and the tortilla and black bean casserole, which is wicked good, along with some Big Y French bread.

Chestnut & sage soup.

Lasagne made by my cousin. Haven't had any in a long time. Let's see if i can work up the appetite for that.

I had a buncha handfuls of white-cheddar popcorn, an ice cream sammich, and two pickled garlics last night.

I actually managed to finish my plate. Hooray!

Tuna, barley, some tiny little pieces of bread with spreadable sun-dried tomato cheese on it, raw broccoli, and a Greek yogurt-curry sauce to go on the tuna and broccoli.

Leftover pot roast.  (It is always better the second day.)

It sure is! I like a nice open-face pot roast sandwich smothered in gravy.

A grilled chicken breast topped with sauteed onions and a side of collard greens in apple cider vinegar.

sauerbraten that has been slowly cooked for almost a day. Hopefully i can work up an appetite. Have only eaten about an eighth of my lunch in school today.

Didn't work. I gave up about after eating about an eighth of my already small plate. My mother warned me about health issues and now refuses to allow me Cola until i start eating normally again.

Made Quorn mince Bolognese and gnocchi with lots of parmesan

Thinking about shells and cheese with some bacon bits in them.
