Western Omelette With Bell Pepper, Onion, Ham, and Cheese

I had tossed my ten inch non-stick skillet since it was, well, sticky, I needed a ten inch pan though. I did my best, but I kinda sort of mess this up. Yes it was still the ingredients and it tasted good, but it was not really an omelette.

Brats and Pasta Salad with Peas and Pesto

I walked outside, let my feet feel the grass, and then harvested out of my growing mint garden. I got well over a cup of fresh mint and made mint pesto. I’ve ben ignoring the plot for the most part for a number of years. It has not grown like this. I think it has had just about the right weather fo the year. So it is time to use the mint.

I have homemade creme de menthe started already, and am looking at another mint alcohol thing.

The brats turned out good, as they always do, and it was nice to make a salad that goes with it, without buying it from, less than ideal recipes and sources.

Peruvian-Style Grilled-Chicken Sandwiches With Spicy Green Sauce

I set the chicken in the brine Friday, as part of the things I did on a day without work. I pulled the chicken out about 30 minutes before I started. It wanted to be grilled, but, I don’t have a thing that does that. So I put them in the oven at 350 for a bit. I got all the other things ready and when put together in a sandwich. I used some of the leftover peas and pesto pasta salad as a side dish. It was a good meal.

Sausage, Egg, on an English muffin

Good things. I’m going to have to get more sausage.

Tuna Melt

It ended up not being a melt. I didn’t feel like turning on the stove that evening. So I ended up just making a tuna salad. It was a nice combination of flavors, even though I didn’t use that good of tuna. On a bit of sourdough, with some Prairie Breeze. Good things.
