Food Prep

While my guys were tackling a deck repair the other day I ended up getting some work done ahead in the kitchen.  Big project of the day was getting some dressing and ghee made.  Aidan had mentioned In and Out sauce a few days earlier so I made up a copycat batch.   We also knocked out some Paleo ranch which I feel I cannot live without from this day forward.  Disclosure – husband liked it better as a dip than a dressing due to the dill. Say that three times fast.  And finally – the ghee.  Big new here is that it WORKED.  I couldn't seem to get all the milk solids out last time around.  Will say it took a lot longer than any of the recipes suggested but look at that.  Liquid gold.  

Sauces

We made a double batch of Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Spaghetti Squash.  Oh my word.  With the ranch?  So good.  Daughter and husband crumbled bleu cheese over theirs.  Truly a hit.  It did make a LOT though so plan accordingly.  For the record, it's even better the second day for leftovers. 

Sauces

I made broccoli soup to go with.  It was also even better as a leftover.  Everyone liked it.  Almost everyone.  Not this one….

Sauces

There's one in every crowd.  Note to self: have cheddar handy next time.  

Scotch Eggs

 

Scotch eggs have been a favorite since we had them in England though we have not made them up since we moved back.  We rectified that with this paleo adaptation which was every bit as good.  I will tell you my cheater version though.  I used Jimmy Dean natural breakfast sausage in place of making my own. Easy peasy. 

I'm hungry now.  And it's Friday. I need to plan these posts better. ; D
