Use a peeler like for a potato or carrot. They're good raw too.

I'd rather throw in some radishes for a peppery note

But see? now you've got me thinking...

Can you say you've ever eaten a rutabaga?

Nope

Got a big ol' crockpot of hamburger soup working away now. Rolls are rising. I just got up from a glorious mid-day nap and I think I'll drink some beer.

We had a hamburger potato casserole thing one night last week. It was simple and really good.

Spaghetti and meatballs (homemade and sauce from scratch too) salad, garlic toast tonight. Homemade chocolate chip cheese cake for dessert.

Put a chili rubbed whole chicken on the smoker earlier today for a white chicken chili. I plan to shred the chicken and thawed out some Hatch chiles I've been hoarding to toss in with some cannellini beans; all built atop a mirepoix.

I have a Chuck roast in the crock with some cream of mushroom soup and beef stock. Should he ready for the frozen egg noodles soon.

Simple is best most of the time. Hard to beat meat and potatoes in most combos.

Baby backs baby

Ground Beef Chili with red and white beans. Added some chipotle for some smokiness.

This sounds like a winner. I make a generic white chicken chili on the regular, but this is next level shit. Always do avocado and cilantro and a little hot sauce for garnish.

I like 'em in beef stew for variety. It should go quite well in a pot roast.

Speaking of roasts. Made a pork loin roast dinner on Sunday. Cooled down nicely by dinner time to eat outdoors by the pool too.

Pork loin rubbed in rosemary, thyme, garlic and olive oil. Made a past of it and stuck it in slats. Roasted acorn squash rubbed with applesauce, cinnamon, nutmeg with chopped apples. Mashed potatoes with a wine sauce; green beans, mushrooms and roasted small white onions.
