What's for tea at your house tonight?

Last night I roasted a bone in prime rib for a scant hour, the result...delicious medium rare on the edge, beautifully rare in the centre...ZOMG!

Served with roasted vine tomatoes, wet polenta, and a red wine/rosemary jus.


nom nom nom.

Tonight I'm making a sort of philly cheese steak baguette from the leftoves.

That sounds amazing! So jealous.

It's our first night of dinner at home since Christmas Eve... The past 2 days have mostly been junk food filled. I'm planning on either making pasta with extra spicy marinara (made with a scotch bonnet) and sauteed greens, or veggie stir fry with rice. I'm torn!

Ham and spaghetti pie

The rest of last night's spaghetti with garlic bread.

Ham and spaghetti pie

CCG You always have interesting sounding food You I have to ask what Ham & Spaghetti pie is?  

We got a couple care package's from my Mom & Sister today so were having Hamburger Helper Lasagna its one of Dh's fav American meals I made him when he first came to visit me in the States. you have to know I'm not much of cook so his standards were set pretty low lol.

Ham, mushrooms, garlic, onion, cream of mushroom soup, and cheese all mixed with cooked spaghetti, topped with breadcrumbs and more cheese, then baked in a casserole dish. It's not fancy, but it's a nice way to use up leftover ham when you're sick of sandwiches!

Oh that sounds really good to me but Dh doesn't like mushrooms so I might have to pass that onto my sister who loves mushrooms Thanks.  

I told my sister about it she said thanks but what temp & how long do you cook it for?

375 for about 20 minutes until it's bubbly. Use two cans of cr of mushroom soup, and a small can of mushrooms (I use fresh and saute them, but you don't have to do that). Don't forget salt and pepper too! If you don't like mushrooms, you could make it with green beans instead and some other cream soup, like cr of celery or something.

Oh ok thanks for the tip. when we have green bean casserole we use cream of celery soup I cant tell the difference myself so I will try that instead of cream of mushroom thanks again.

I'm not sure if it is the festive season or if she is spoiling us while she still has the chance before we move, but she has been spoiling us a lot lately.

Enjoy it while it lasts.   My MIL usually pays for 1 or sometimes both of our tickets to the States I think its cause she is grateful we live in the UK because she is afraid to fly.

I do believe I am experiencing food envy!  That sounds incredible.

We had tacos with pumpkin pie for dessert. Strange combination.
