A busy week means that unusual thing happened in the supper department last week, and so there is a repeat on the menu of the sweet and sour meatball meal which did not get eaten last week. There was a death on my husband's side of the family, and so we were fed after the funeral. Later in the day when we were discussing the meal after the service, I mentioned that I thought the food had been "just okay." The Mister said that he thought it was very good! I rolled my eyes and told him that he probably can't appreciate how good my cooking is since he thinks that everything tastes very good!
Right now there is a pot roast simmering in the crock pot, and this weekend and I started gathering tender young dandelion greens for salad.
Monday: Round Roast with carrots and red potatoes
Tuesday: leftovers
Wednesday: Sweet and Sour Meatballs (see last week's MPM for recipe)
Thursday: Blackened catfish and fried green tomatoes (which we have sliced up in the freezer from the final harvest.)
Friday: leftovers
Saturday: Eggplant and Mozzarella Melt with Dandelion Green salad*

*Pick your dandelion greens. Wash them. Toss with sliced green onion and bacon crumbles. Top with sliced hard boiled egg. Use a vinaigrette dressing. Let me know how it turns out.
Your frozen green tomatoes, do you batter them first, before you freeze them? I love the idea!
ReplyDeleteHi Stace, I don't bread them before freezing, just slice them up, separate them with wax paper, and bag them. Then you bread them while they are still frozen, and fry. I know some who have tried breading them first and then freezing them, but the results weren't good and the breading would fall off in the pan.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know anyone actually ate fried green tomatoes, I just thought it was a cute idea for a movie.
ReplyDeleteI sort of have a menu. I wrote it down yesterday, but cannot find it now. With Papa off Thurs and Friday it will be a strange week. Ol' Ronald will be making our supper Friday for sure. :P
Hi Monica I think I'll pass on supper for Thursday never heard of blacken catfish? Thanks for sharing another yummy! week.

You know, someone just sent me a recipe for a bacon, lettuce & tomato sandwich made with fried green tomatoes instead of the regular ones. I really need to give those a try, I know we'd like them. I also have to try the eggplant/mozzarella melt - my 20 year old son has decided not to eat meat anymore. Puh-lease! As if! Thanks for some more great ideas - have a good week ~
