@duncandahusky I have found that a nice cold cider is a great wind down from a good hike!
Today was a pleasant day for grilling up some lunch! I marinated a couple chicken breast in a mix of garlic, ginger, lemon, soy sauce, mirin and sesame oil for about 2 hours and it turned out excellent! My brother and his husband had the chicken with some rice, while I grilled romaine lettuce and had my chicken over that with some balsamic glaze.
The salmon and the rice were excellent and their flavors paired well together. The zucchini got a tad overcooked, but was still quite flavorful. I'm quite happy with the results and it only needed garnish to make it feel like something you'd get at a restaurant.
Last night we had BLTs so we could get enough bacon grease for my brother to make Fried Beef Tacos with it tonight. Mmmmmm... I haven't had fried tacos in about a decade. My mom made them occasionally, though using crisco as the frying oil.
The simple joy of trying to lift up one side of the shell of one fresh from the fryer so the cheese you throw in there melts extra good.
I made Aloo Masala Breakfast Burritos for myself this morning and they were quite tasty! Needs a kick of something in the seasoning, but I could see making them again.
