Vegetarian Etoufee.  I've made a ton of rouxs over the years, but never like this.  I was skeptical, but it was really delish!  Two thumbs up.

King prawns, red and green bell peppers, poblano pepper and onion slow simmered in Nando's garlic peri peri sauce. (Only one bottle left! ACK!)

If you need more, we have Nando's here and I can send you some! It's a good excuse for me to go!  ;D

We had carne asada tacos and cilantro lime rice

I made spaghetti tossed with patty pan squash, tomatoes, swiss chard, fresh basil ,and feta cheese last night. So simple, so quick, so good.

I made a homemade leek and potato soup last night

Tonight, I've got a "pot luck" supper to attend to -  I am thinking of bringing along a buffalo chicken dip

Ham Fried Rice - It's a recipe my sister made way back when she had to take home ec in high school. In no way does it resemble real fried rice (well, it does have rice and soy sauce in it), but it's pretty tasty! I'll also heat up some chicken and cilantro wontons.

I will definitely keep that in mind!  ;D

We had leftover night. We'd ordered a Hawaiian barbecue chicken pizza and cheesy bread yesterday for the Colts game, and still had grilled chicken and steak we'd brought home from Ponderosa Saturday night.
