Friday night was bad on the healthy eating scale but so good on the tasty meter. Salt Lick in Round Rock. Shorter drive now yay! .. and booooo for wastelien and wallet.
This weekend we went to Boerne (you might think that is pronounced like born ... but you would be wrong .. its bernie, liek Weekend at Bernies) for a yarn/wool thingy at the fairgrounds there. Kinda neat but lame too, no easily accessible llamas to pet, what's the point? While there we had some decent sausages at a restaurant called the Dodging Duck. Really good pretzel too. Before leaving for Boerne we stopped at the farm stand that is usually in Jonestown on saturday mornings but this week was at their farm, love their fresh veggies. Check them out at http://angelvalleyfarms.com/. Sunday evening I cooked some of the veggies and a pork chop (pic below)
Roasted Beets onions and tomatoes. Tomatoes were topped with an asian greens mix that had been saute'd with a small amount of butter and onions. Pork chop was a thick cut butterfly loin with olive oil salt and pepper.
I worked from home on Monday and wanted to use up some meatballs I got at IKEA and one of my favorite meatball recipes aside from spaghetti is meatball stroganoff. This isn't really a classic stroganoff recipe but it does have sour cream in the sauce and looks kinda brownish gray. Tasty though. I was out of egg noodles (my favotrite stroganoff starch) so I made some from scratch and they came out fairly good, next time i will run them through the pasta press one more time after they have been cut fromt eh sheets to make them thinner but the flavor was decent.
