I made lamb in the Crock pot over the weekend, with carrots, onions, parsnips, and potatoes. Delicious! I reserved about 1/2 of the veg. I tossed them with olive oil and some sea salt and then roasted them in a pan covered with aluminum foil. Perfection!
I read about something called a
Gorilla Sandwich last week. I thought I would try to make something similar at home - so I stuffed the cucumber with spinach, dried cranberries, feta, walnuts, and the cucumber-yogurt-dill sauce I made from the hallowed out bits. I ate it today for lunch, and it was ok. It would have been better if I had diced some onions, maybe some carrots or avocado as well. Hummus would be good as well, possibly some egg salad. It needed a little more texture for my liking, but at the same time it let me eat a salad without a fork, which was cool. Also, the various ingredients were kept nice and moist, and everything was delicious.
Saturday I cooked up a rib eye steak from Trader Joe's, which was fantastic, just a really great steak that came out tender, juicy, and delicious.
No photos this time, everything was just begging to be devoured!
