Tex-Mex Chicken Chili Verde

We prepared our Tex-Mex chicken chili verde in the crockpot today. We served it with cornbread muffins and our favorite adult beverages. :) Click on the image to enlarge.

Sunday Dinner

Lots of football today, but I took time to grill a ribeye steak (bone-in) to compliment Verna’s baked potatoes and poached asparagus. What you see here is actually two meals since we split it and still had leftovers. Click on the image to enlarge.

Pasta PrimaVerna

Verna took some ideas from one of the Food Channel chefs and whipped up this wonderful chicken/zucchini/asparagus fettuccine Alfredo which we dubbed “Pasta PrimaVerna.” Excellent!

Nostalgic Drive-in Restaurant

Verna and I went off of our normally conservative low-cholesterol and low-fat diet regimen today in order to patronize Screamer’s, the old-time drive in diner in town. We went the whole route and ordered a cheeseburger with fries and a vanilla milk shake. Even though we split the burger and tossed half of the fries up in the wash for the critters, we felt quite full after enjoying a taste from the past. Click on the image to enlarge.

Meatloaf

Nothing to report other than good food, good football and a good weekend. Hope yours was as enjoyable. Clickable image: home cooked meatloaf with sauteed mushrooms and gravy, mashed taters and cinnamon carrots. Yum!

Homemade Pizza

Not the roundest or most well -formed pizza you’ve ever seen, but damn, this was maybe the best pizza anywhere! There are three kinds of cheese, artichoke hearts, olives, ham chunks and tomato sauce. Excellent, if I do say so myself! Click on the image to enlarge.
