What's Cookin' 5/4-5/10

Saturday was The H's 38th birthday... This means he gets to pick whatever he wants, whatever he can think of in his wildest (snicker at The H's culinary taste being wild) dreams and I will cook it for him...
Birthday dinner was last night, and he picked grilled steaks and baked potatoes... easy-peesy and classic (Just like The H).. I am glad he picked it tho, because I was happy to eat a nice rare steak (he prefers medium-rare... there are two things I am REALLY glad I learned in culinary school - making sauces, and how to tell how done a steak is by touch.. )

The H has meetings a couple evenings this week - which for me either means that I cook up a yummy storm using all the things he doesn't care for, or that I end up indulging a burger or nacho craving from a favorite take out joint... (I am aiming to stick with the first option this week)

So, Menu for this week:

Sun - Grilled Strips with garlic butter, baked potatoes (with all the trimmings)

Monday - Green salad with balsmic and blue cheese, Grilled chicken with herbs de Provence

Tuesday - (just me) Grilled goat cheese and tomato sammie

Wed - (just me) fruit and cheese plate... grilled veggies

Thursday - Open-faced turkey sandwhiches, sage gravy, mashed potatoes

Weekend night at home - Grilled Pizza or Cubano sandwiches


Have a yummy week!
