Always a good choice.

My wife and I had that last night, yum yum.

Homemade cheese burgers, tator tots and coleslaw. The wife is slow cooking beef barley soup for tomorrow and following days. Yum.

spaghetti with garlic and olive oil.

A favorite in the V-Tail household.

I frequently add some mashed anchovies, maybe also toss a handful of sun-dried tomato pieces in the boiling spaghetti water.

Some crusty bread to soak up the extra oil & garlic, and a glass of Ernest & Julio's finest from a screw-top 1.5 liter jug.

Cheese and fruit for desert.

What's not to like?

Ddoekbokki, Kalbi, fried tofu, sprouts.

Your spaghetti is a traditional Italian Christmas eve course for dinner.

We have it through out the year but we toss capers, some anchovies that we mash to a paste so it disappears in the oil, some calamati olives, and sundried tomato's, or whatever we feel like adding to the fry. We don't make it the same every time, whatever we feel like mixing and matching.

It's so simple yet so good.

It's been a busy day stuck inside with the snow storm. We made Taralli



Then we made Mostaccioli



So I decided to order chinese food for everyone who came over to help. It's tough to cook diner after you spent the day working the kitchen.

Same as some of the other guys. Pressure cooked chili with oyster crackers. Made chicken noodle soup for lunch with leftovers. Boring stuff but will feed for days.

Spaghetti and meatballs. I have meatballs leftover from making Albondigas (meatball) Soup.

If you want to try the soup, here is a recipe.

Fried Chicken

Cool 52 here in Central Florida - so I made Cordon Blue. Veggies on the side.

Snack plate of real German Butterkasse and smoked Iberico ham (thanks Aldi) and my daughter made cookies.

Chicken noodle soup and grilled ham and cheese. Good on a chilly evening.

That's some good chicken!

I'm trying out my new sous vide device tonight on a small ribeye. Saute Asparagus, sherried 'rooms, mashed potatoes and garlic bread.

Woke up late this morning so I missed out on my Saturday morning bacon and eggs. Had a protein bar at 70 mph instead.

To make up for it, for dinner I had bacon and eggs. 3 strips of crispy bacon, 3 eggs over medium, english muffin with peanut butter and jelly, and a mango.

Unfortunately Pizza Hut. Lots of visitors tonight so we took the easy route.

Tuna salad sandwich. Threw together a new spin on the old recipe. One large can tuna, Hellman's mayo, two stalks of celery finely diced, about a tablespoon of celery seed, same of dried onion and probably a tablespoon worth of fresh cilantro finely minced. The cilantro and celery seed were the additions, and they gave the whole thing a fresher, meatier flavor. Wish I had a fresh onion on hand, but it was good nonetheless.

In search of having something different tonight, I came upon crock pot beef stroganoff using this recipe.

Slow-Cooker Beef Stroganoff

It was a bit bland, so spice it up a little if you try it..
