What's for dinner tonight?

All this talk of Greek food made me remember I had a package of ground lamb in the freezer, so I looked up a recipe online.

Mediterranean Lamb Bowl - tumeric rice, ground spiced lamb, diced cucumbers and tomatoes, feta cheese. There was supposed to be some hummis, and I thought I had a can of chick peas, but I couldn't find it.

Lamb has fresh minced garlic, fresh minced onion, fresh chopped Italian parsley, fresh chopped mint, ground ginger, ground allspice, ground paprika, ground cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper.

There is enough lamb for several meals, so tomorrow I'll make it again if I can find a supermarket open, this time with hummis.

That looks really good.
I had salad with the church ladies. I made lemonade and you would think they never heard of real lemonade before by the way they talked about it.

 

[DrHenley]

I went and got some chick peas and more tomatoes and cucumber so I can do it correctly tomorrow

 

[DrHenley]

I think I got it right this time. I added hummus and bruised fresh mint, and diced the cucumber and tomato more finely. And drizzled some balsamic vinegar and olive oil on the cucumber and tomato.

We did burgers and sausages on the grill for the fourth celebration with a ton of sides. Am almost in pain right now from eating so much. I did pu two 2” thick ribeyes at the store while on sale today for dinner later on this week. 7.98 a pound was almost half their regular price. Everybody loves ribeye!

We had a barbecue at work for lunch and I ate so much that I didn't really want anything at supper except some watermelon.

 

[Mountain trapper]

My son came down today to help me put up the hay. I met him in town and we had pulled pork sandwiches.
I'm still not feeling well but the sandwich was good anyway.

 

[Proud Prepper]

I smoked a brisket and slow cooked it with bbq sauce in crock pot. We grilled burgers, hot dogs and sausage. We made a potato salad, baked beans with bacon, homemade beef chilli. Creole tomato, red onion, avocado salad with a apple cider viniger-Olive oil dressing, crushed black pepper, sea salt.

I made a culliflower cassarol with bacon, cream cheese, sour cream, butter, green onions, cheddar cheese, garlic, pepper, salt.
Hamburger n hotdog buns and french pistolet rolls. All the fixins.

Ladyfinger, gramcracker crumble, sliced strawberry, strawberry sauce, whipped cream ice box pan pie for desert.

 

[Proud Prepper]

And I finished off my last bottle of peach Crown whiskey with iced tea, with help of a couple of friends, as we lit fireworks... And blew up a few things.

 

[Brent S]

Life is short and has no guarantees of good health and well being, so my motto is celebrate all the little things with good food and drink! Hope everyone got to have some fun for the 4th.

Been fishing most of the day. Stopped for pizza on the way home.

I saw the first two episodes yesterday too. I love being able to see the whole season without waiting each week!

I liked the whole season except for the last episode. I’ll be curious to know what you think.

I loved the last season. It’s kind of a kids show but with enough Stephen King to make it interesting. So far it’s got my interest.
Tonight I was lazy and got two large to go orders from a Chinese buffet that’s not too far away. 15 mi each way, but that’s what you get when you live n the country. Anyways I’m full and content, and just poured a beer over ice, and now will watch two more episodes of stranger things. Prepping can wait till later!

Steak veggies and garlic toast ( on another plate no room on my regular plate)

That steak is about as attractive as a beautiful woman! I must be getting old

 

[Mountain trapper]

Steak, salad and sourdough toast.

 

[KateMTx]

I had leftover biscuits and sausage from breakfast Sunday and some really good watermelon.

 

[Brent S]

Thick ribeye, corn on the Cobb, baked potato, toast, and a fresh salad mostly from the garden. Washed down with a cold beer over ice. Kings in the past didn’t have it so good.

 

[Mountain trapper]

Last night was a piece of toast and a bowl of sherbet. Actually that was all I had all day.

Are you still feeling ill? That is not much for a grown man.

Yeah. Still feeling pretty puny. I did manage to get a half a ham sandwich down this morning. Got my first load of hay in this afternoon. I thought I was going to have heat stroke. It must have been 75 degs in that hay field. It's a little cooler at home.

 

[Proud Prepper]

Today I made a roux from kudzu root(Aurgustin Farms shortening powder). I browned 2 squirles and slow cooked them with wild onions and saw palmetto hearts, potatoes, freeze dried carrots. Pepper, sea salt, garlic powder, onion powder.
Served this over white rice.
It tasted pretty damn good and would consider this a good prepper meal that I could make well after SHTF. My pics still won't load. I was going to make a wild forage salad, but didn't get the chance. I already pick wild greens and add to my salads, so no big deal.

Do you mean 95 degrees?

I've been meaning to try dwarf palmetto root (closely related to saw palmetto), the BOL is covered with them. But I remember the last time I dug one up. The damned roots go halfway to China because it's basically a palm tree with the trunk entirely underground. LOL

I am too old to do that with a shovel anymore, but I might try it with the front end loader.

 

[Mountain trapper]

Nope, 75. Maybe it was my fever that made it feel so hot. So far this summer 75 has been our high temperature here at home.

Yeah there is a lot of food in a saw palmetto, but it's all underground. Hey if your hungry enough....

Yesterday I fixed a grilled cheese sandwich and split pea soup, today is tuna fish on toasted bread and potato salad.
