What Are You Having For Dinner

[Weedygarden]

Scalloped potatoes, ham, asparagus, cheesecake with fresh strawberries.

Daughter says that prepared fresh strawberries, cleaned, diced up with a little sugar on them, causing them to get juicy is called macerating. That is how I prepare strawberries for using as a sauce on short cakes, etc.

"To macerate strawberries, all you have to do is sprinkle sugar on them, which draws out their juices so they become soft and sweet and deliciously saucy. Macerate is sometimes also used to mean "cause to grow thin or weak," or in other words, to make someone feel like a soft, squishy strawberry."

My last couple of batches have been fast and easy and delicious. Ends up costing about $1 per quart jar. A two pound cabbage is just about perfect after adding a small onion, A cup of shredded carrots, and a cup of shredded bell peppers; for two quart jars. And spiced with cayenne and ginger leaves me satisfied from my usual store bought Kim chi $6/ jar.

why don't you just make the kimchi? I make it all the time when we have cabbages

made a ham, broccoli and cauliflower casserole , smashed potatoes , rolls and a German cake "Bienenstich" . It's a yeast cake with pudding and cream filling and almonds on top. I had a huge stack of dishes to do, counted , one pot to make the vanille pudding, one bowl to make the whipped cream, one mixer bowl to make the dough, one plastic bowl to rest the dough, one pot to make the almond topping , one springform to bake it, one cake container to put it in....no wonder most American women buy cake in a box and icing in a jar....one bowl, and one throw away aluminum cake pan will do it...lol

@sonya123 that cake sounds so good! We had a store bought carrot cake with berries added, nice addition to end the spread of food.

Oh man I need some of that pineapple. Those are so good after baking on a ham. Deviled eggs look awesome too.

Not many of my family eat them so I usually get to clean the pineapple up.

Tried something new the other day. Saw it in a YouTube video but didn't write a recipe down.

Basically sautéed bacon and onion. Topped chicken pieces with it. Made a sauce with mayo, Dijon mustard, and honey. Poured it over the top. Part way through the baking top with cheese. My guys loved it.
