That thick slab of round steak I have got is going into the electric skillet to be browned in EVOO and then covered in tomatoes, onions and mushrooms. It will simmer on 225° until wife gets home. Not even thinking about sides yet as I will leave that to her imagination.
Tonight we are going out to eat! We are going to celebrate our 10th anniversary a day early since we both work tomorrow night. I told my husband he can pick the place so I'm sure we are probably going to go to a steak house.
I never got to have my lamb chops the other night... I ended up eating the leftover chinese food. So last night, I finally broiled them up after seasoning with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Brioiled 4 minutes on each side. They're about 2" thick and I like my meat rare.
Cooked up some Near East Rice Pilaf with sun-dried tomatoes. YUM!!!
Took one summer and one zuchinni squash, cut them in half the long way and seasoned them with fresh cracked pepper, sea salt, and italian seaasonings. Broiled five minutes on each side.
I was stuffed and tonight I will enjoy those leftovers!

Young Lisa: One of my favorite things to eat in the summer is eggplant from the garden, sliced in 1/2" thick circles, dipped in water, then your italian seasoned Panko breadcrumbs, then fried in evoo just til tender. OMG... to die for!!! No sauce, no cheese... just the eggplant. Very satisfying summer meal. I too could be a summer vegetarian, but I do like that meat off the grill!!! lol
skbs: Our grocery stores here... Stop and Shop, will cook the lobsters for you! You can just take them home and eat!

DiMarg: Tazmanian Salmon?? You're making me drool!!! lol
Nomie: You eat like a king every day!!! Lucky stiff!!!!!
Me roast is cooking real slow. I think I will make an executive decision and add some red potato halves about an hour before wife should be home. That should do it.
I am having more zucchini and squash. Oh yeah and oven fried eggplant with tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese.
I think I am becoming a "summer vegetarian", lol.

I came here for inspiration and that does it. I'd cheerfully use eggplants for target practice. But my better half is overly fond of eggplant parmesan so I think I'll make that tonight. Maybe a chicken breast will sneak into one corner of the pan. That'll be okay, no vegetarians here.
