We haven't been doing too much in the way of fancy cooking lately. Our daughters left for Montana and California recently, and we've just kind of heaved a big sigh and rested.
We had French toast and bacon earlier this week...always a fav of ours.
Last night was bacon sandwiches and coleslaw. Along with nice, thick bacon, we had seared Walla Walla sweet onions and tomatoes, sharp cheddar cheese, and for me, pepperoncinis, all between slices of grilled English muffin bread.
Tonight. Tonight was dinner cooked outdoors. We had a salad of tender romaine lettuce fresh out of the garden; chicken breast rubbed with ground Ancho chile, ras el hanout, and onion powder, then grilled; dried Mission figs; grilled sweet onions; and crumbled feta cheese. The dressing was a mix of extra-virgin olive oil, figs, white balsamic vinegar, orange blossom water and fresh ginger. We grilled up some corn-on-the-cob and ciabatta bread that we had brushed with some of the Lebanese olive oil-lemon juice-garlic mix. OMG. Dinner was sweetspicysaltysoursavory...and we are very pleasantly full.
I've been loving the grill this summer. Dinner sounds yum!
