So it was a gloomy and chilly evening here in Oregon. So I decided to cook something that would make me feel warm and comfy. The items in the picture plus a few other items turned into 3 dishes.
The first dish was just a simple cream of mushroom and roasted garlic soup, right from the can. I added some sautéed baby bella mushrooms and sliced some french bread to go with the soup. I sprinkled a bit of black pepper on top. Very simple and very warm.
The second dish was more like an appetizer. Stuffed mussel on the half shell. Now again, nothing to outrageous here. Just some frozen mussel that I steamed in a pan. I then made a mixture of chopped garlic, some shredded extra sharp cheddar, chopped prosciutto, and italian bread crumbs with some olive oil. I put a little of the mixture on top of each mussel and then put it in the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes. Very good. The garlic and the prosciutto went well with the mussels.
Last, but not least, my lovely sweet chili lamb ribs. I love lamb… so good and taste like no other meat I have ever had. I simply seasoned the lamb with garlic powder, black pepper and seasoning salt. I let them bake in a 400 degree oven (temp varies depending on oven) until done and golden brown. I took them out of the pan and tossed them with some store bought sweet chili sauce. Very simple and very good.
Tomorrow I am really thinking, lamb burgers, but that could change.
