Menu

I think were having some catfish tonight, not sure since I work all day. Mom had it on the shopping list, not sure who's gonna cook it unless sister does it after choir practice, which means a late dinner. Maybe I can leave work early and hook it up so we can eat at a decent hour. Fried catfish with some chipotle tabasco sauce, some red wine vinegar cole slaw, and maybe some french fries. mmm Mmm

This Sunday is fathers day,so I started thinking about the menu for dinner. Well actually I had already put together a menu last week. Still gotta tweak it. It will either be some grilled marinated steak w sauteed onions (vidalia if there are any left over) peppers,mushrooms,maybe some sliced garlic tossed in, baked potatoes, green salad, or jerked chicken thighs w grilled pineapple (gotta test out that new pineapple slicer) slices, mango chutney, may also do pineapple coconut smoothies to help cut down the heat on the jerked chicken. For those who cant take the heat of the jerked chicken thighs maybe some lemon & herbed chicken drumsticks,pasta salad, some spinach (not sure if its gonna be the steamed or sauteed in olive oil w fresh ginger). Hmm, this might be a good excuse to pick up that smoker grill at Lowes.

The new (as of last year) Weber Kettle grill is aight but its a little limited in terms of grilling space

Still gotta work on the midweek menu in case we go through the other stuff. Hmm stir fry sounds nice...stir fry

The Had Catfish Nuggets on sale at Stop & Shop, of all places, unfortunately, when we went to buy some there wasn't anyone on the seafood side except for the susi persons
