Tonight was a no meat night for us. We had two dishes...
Rice, red lentils, tabasco and cheddar cheese. Simple, easy and tasty.
Dish two - fancy dish!
1 fresh head of cauliflower
2 pounds of fresh brussel sprouts
1 pound red potatoes
2 large shallots
1 apple (med size)
a cup of chicken broth
2-3 splashes of vinegar
butter
Shred the apple into the butter. Add the shallots, add vinegar, add chicken broth as needed. Caramelize. Trim brussel sprouts and cut the big ones in half. Cut the cauliflower into large hunks. Cut potatoes into wedge sizes. Cook until tender. Drain and toss in the caramelized mixture and coat. Add more chicken broth if needed.
It's not a cheap dish, I probably had $8 in it. But it makes a TON of food so we'll be having it with lunch and dinner over the next few days.
The leftover rice/lentils? I am getting ready to puree some fresh aldi tomatoes, my 2 cent jalapeno pepper (its so little lol, 99 cents a pound) and some onion to make salsa to add to the leftovers. Then I'll fry the corn shells and drape them over a glass while they are hot to make little taco cups and fill them. DD will love that :)
