Deconstructed Cobb Salad

2/16/2017

0 Comments

 

Deconstructed Cobb Salad was tonight's no cook dinner. Okay, I fried the bacon, but I used pre-roasted turkey breast (from Costco) and I made a batch of hard boiled eggs earlier. Everyone took a base of lettuce and added the toppings (or sides) they wanted. #corn #avocado #olives #blackolives #mushrooms #beets #redonion #bluecheese #bacon #turkey #boiledegg #ranchdressing #romaine #lettuce #salad #cobbsalad #saladbar #saladfordinner #familydinner #nocook #colorfulfood #redplate

 Kale Artichoke Salad for Two
(picture next time!)

4 cups of Tuscan / Dinosaur Kale (preferably), chopped 
1 cup artichoke hearts, water packed, halved
2 (or more) cloves of garlic, crushed
4-6 anchovies (canned kind), diced finely
3 T grated parmesan
3 T olive oil
2 T apple cider vinegar
2 T melted butter
1 t lemon juice
1 t Dijon mustard
1 t honey
1/2 t sea salt
1/4 t pepper
cooked chicken strips (optional)

1. Using your hands, "massage" salt into kale to release its natural liquid and "soften" it.
2. Add oil, vinegar, garlic, and artichoke hearts. Combine well.
3. Stir in anchovies, lemon juice, honey, and dijon mustard.
4. Top with cheese, pepper, and chicken (if using).
5. Pour in the butter and mix well.

Maple Cherry Pork Tenderloin

5/17/2012

0 Comments

 
Concocted a new way to make pork tenderloin - roast in the oven on 475 for about a half hour (still a little pink in the center), then put butter, maple syrup, and morello cherries (with some of the juice) into the pan and broil to finish off cooking. On my plate, I stirred dijon and habanero berry jam into the sauce (I kept it separate for the kids' sake). I served it with mashed potatoes and an invented salad of cucumber, cooked beets, avocado, gorgonzola, and onion, with orange-infused olive oil, cider vinegar, dried dill, and a touch of honey. Salt and pepper on everything. Posting for safe keeping - pictures next time :)
