Holiday Cooking - Labor Day 2011
I happened to hear the weather forecast when menu planning last week, so decided to forget about the grill for Labor Day. I planned so if it wasn't raining I could use the grill, but if rain, I could still have a good meal.
It was raining when we got up and showed no signs of stopping. It slowed or got heavy, luckily no tornadoes or wind, but the rain never stopped.
No problem. I pulled out my heavy, cast iron, Lodge skillet and grilled indoors. A simple meal of tuna and zucchini with Penzey's Greek seasoning and smashed, tiny, Yukon Gold potatoes.
I did the zucchini first, it's good at room temperature. I brushed the grill with oil, let it get hot and on went the zucchini. I do have a down draft and had that on high in case of smoke.
The zucchini looks great and tasted great also.
Once the zucchini slices were cooked, I put the tuna on. I like my tuna pretty rare, my husband likes medium, so his went on first.
The potatoes were smashed and dinner was excellent.
I've been at my desk now for several hours and it's time to move. I am ready for two potential client meetings this evening. One for a cooking class, one for a family service. Life is great!
