This week so far has been a long succession of misses when it comes to dinners.
Monday was steaks on the Griddler, sauteed portabellos, oven fries and chard. The steaks were merely passable. I’m really considering taking a meat cooking course so that I stop wasting good food.
Tuesday was brown rice with oyster mushrooms, broccoli, shallots, peppers, left-over chard and tofu. The tofu was marinated in store-bought dressings and sauces, which just feels like cheating and it didn’t turn out as crispy crusted as I would like.
Wednesday was oven-roasted tilapia cooked on a bed of leeks with black olives, tomatoes, garlic and red wine. The leeks were under cooked and the red wine was too much acid with the olives and and tomatoes.
And that’s why tonight I’m going out for dinner! Hopefully I’ll get my cooking groove back this weekend.
