Potato and onion hash is in progress, because I have a lot of potatoes and onions.

Last night I made kimchi stew, which was super fast and easy. I sauteed up some garlic, ginger, and scallion whites, added turkey stock, soy sauce, and gochujang. After that came to a boil, I added kimchi, soft tofu, and some udon noodles. Topped with the scallion greens.

In my freezer I found: freezerburned beef, freezerburned green beans, and freezerburned ginger. So I made a stirfry. It is surprisingly edible. Also, I made it too spicy. More rice!

Grilled chicken leftover from last night’s bbq, dipped in bbq sauce.

Son convinced my husband to buy lamb chops when they were at the store together! He didn’t want to because they are so expensive and, let’s be honest, he doesn’t like lamb. But he did it and said he’d return them if I didn’t want that but no way am I letting him return them. I love lamb chops!!! My plan is to grill them. We have almost no vegetables to serve with them. Other than potatoes, but I’m thinking I should feed my family some green things at least once a day.

Stir fry of frozen pepper and onion mix and broccoli with shredded chicken. Sauce is soy sauce, a little hot pepper and a little lemon juice, garlic, and then a quarter cup of peanut butter stirred in at the last minute (it melts but thickens the sauce).

We got tired of eating the same things over and over the first few weeks of quarantine so lately we’ve been stretching our wings a bit:

Lemongrass chicken
Vegetable curry
A soup with tortellini, sausage, vegetables, and cream sauce
Baked mac n cheese with broccoli

And I’d like to make pad thai but more ingredients are needed. And also maybe a variation of peking duck using chicken. I also want to find more meatless dishes that aren’t pasta, we already rely on pasta way too much and it seems like a cut time to cut meat consumption.

I did end up making peking chicken. The leftover chicken then went into chicken fried rice.

Recent meals:

  • Sweet potato/black bean burritos
  • Just prior to going to the grocery store, Kitchen Sink Pasta. Because it’s basically an excuse to use up anything that needs using up, like the pepperoni we bought to make pizza.
  • Beef stew with herb dumplings even though it’s completely the wrong weather for it. It came out of my Harry Potter cookbook.
  • Marinated chicken over diced potatoes was the night before that, very yummy. Marinade: 2 tbps each orange juice, brown sugar, dijon mustard, oil, and 1 tbsp each paprika, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder. Put the chicken over the potatoes and roast the whole thing, I think it took ~45 minutes. The potatoes got some of the yummy flavor from the chicken, we’ll definitely be making this again.
  • Tonight is bacon-wrapped chicken bites and soy-marinated zucchini and probably rice or something on the side. (Uh, so much for using less meat I guess. Oops.)
  • Risotto

Tonight I grilled everything. Steak, zucchini and potatoes! I’d never grilled potatoes before. It was really good.

How did you grill the potatoes? Were they little ones cut in half? Bigger ones cut in discs?

Little ones cut in half. I did boil them first, so maybe that’s cheating. But we still want soft potatoes! Just with grill marks. :slight_smile:
