We ran a bunch of errands this afternoon and decided to eat at our favorite BBQ joint. It is worth every penny and I have tons leftover for lunch tomorrow.

Just found this thread so on the bandwagon late! DW and I tend to eat out way more than we should, but a calculating error/transposition of numbers while budgeting for our upcoming trip means a tightening of our belts so we can make our monthly payments to the Mouse without dipping into savings. And we both need to shed some weight before we go, do it's all to the good.

Last night's dinner was pan roasted salmon fillets crusted with dukkah, with brown rice and oven roasted Brussels sprouts.

Tonight, it'll be this concoction I make with stew beef slow cooked in a crock pot, then mixed with pasta, sautéed mushrooms and onions.

Wow, just looked it up as well, and it's remarkably similar to a recipe I've been making for years (which I came up with on my own). Here I thought I was clever and creative LOL! I serve mine with udon noodles though, instead of rice. Never thought to try freezing it, though. Sensing the need for a day of cooking/freezing soon!

I made Chicken Curry yesterday. It was really yummy. I might post it on my blog later.

would you like to share your recipe?

I'll be happy to But it'll be after I make it again (hopefully tomorrow!). Unless I'm making someone else's recipe, I'm one of those never measure cooks, just "eyeballing" things then tasting and adjusting as need be, so I honestly have no idea how much of anything I use lol. I can say the sauce consists of PB, garlic, aji mirin, tamari (or low sodium soy sauce if I can't find it) , hoisin, sriracha and a bit of sesame oil, plus water to thin it out a bit. I was trying to replicate the Thai peanut sauce from a restaurant I loved. Didn't get it right but I ended up liking mine better anyway!
