We had chicken adobo last night with brussel sprouts - Bee has had a phobia of the veggies in the past, but I convinced him to try it. And he liked it! :D

I think tonight's dinner will be Korean shortribs from TJ's with some rice, and maybe a salad. Num num.

Nini - Vancouver BC, Canada (she's the one who does the forum thing)

Bee - Devon PA, USA (he's the one who gave her the shiny ring)

Getting our sanity tested by bureaucracy since 2007.

Here we go again...

Oh, how do you make that Nini? I have Adobo seasoning and I don't know what to do with it. :unsure:

It's ridiculously simple, and the recipe looks barbaric. We have this every week though :lol:

1/2 cup white vinegar

1/2 cup soy sauce

generous amount of white or black pepper

three garlic cloves

two bay leaves

2 pounds chicken thighs

15-20 brussel sprouts, cut in half

Simmer vinegar, soy sauce, pepper, garlic and bay leaves in a saucepan. Add chicken thighs and sprouts. Turn 'em over occasionally until tender. Serve with rice - make enough for leftovers!

Ta-da!

Oh. That sounds really good. I think I'll make that one night. But where does the adobo come into it? :unsure::lol:

Change of plan! I've decided to make bacon and potato chowder instead. :thumbs: With buttermilk biscuits. yum

Ok, pork loin chops dipped in egg and then rolled in crushed weetabix biscuits, sauteed with grilled sweet peppers, baked sweet potatoes and broccoli.

Tonight, Joel grilled pork chops and brushed them with honey mustard sauce (honey and mustard, no mayo) and he made homemade potato salad. I've not had to cook supper since Saturday...which is the day the grill came home with us.

I'm loving it while it lasts... ^_^

I'm so excited ... I ate real food for the first time in a week (I am SOOOOO sick of soup) :)

Had Mexican rice mixed with ground beef (seasoned with taco seasoning), topped with cheese, salsa and a litte sour cream. Also had a salad.

Glad your tummy is feeling better autumnchik!

We had baked potato soup last night. I adore this recipe, and it's the best one I've found. After my volunteer interview yesterday, when I was in a part of the city I hadn't been before, I found this awesome bread store called Breadsmith. They had about 30 different kinds of fresh breads! I bought a multigrain, and a rustic Italian. Couldn't pass up some good homemade soup with fresh crusty bread for supper so that's what we had! Tonight? Hmmm, I dunno yet....

Here's a link to Breadsmith's. You might have a location in your area. The bread was delicious.

We had dinner last night, hmm what was it, must have been memorable - oh right, pancakes and eggs and some chicken bacon - yes it was good.

I'm thinking spaghetti for dinner tonight, I have tomatoes, peppers and onions I can use with that.

Breadsmith sounds wonderful ... none near me unfortunately. I love Panera, but the closest one is an hour and a half drive (seriously, Northern NH really lacks chain restaurants .... you could make a killing opening a Panera up here!).

I am leaving for Florida on Saturday, may have to find a Panera down there.
