Fried rice and cucumber salad

I made tuna casserole. Haven't had it in years and forgot how much I enjoy tuna casserole. Make some green beans and corn to go with it.

Messy quesadilla.

Grilled shrimp salad

Thawed out some catfish and shrimp. Made coleslaw, fried the fish, shrimp and homemade hush puppies. Made tartar sauce. Got the family and my bartender fed. :)

I sort of eyeball all this and then adjust to taste. This will give you a starting point.

3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons finely minced onions
1/4 cup sweet pickle relish
Couple dashes of hot sauce
I/4 teaspoon black pepper
I’d start with 1 teaspoons of each of the following and then adjust to taste:
Dry ranch dressing mix
Worcestershire sauce
Sugar

Mix well and chill. I think the original recipe called for a tablespoon or so of Italian dressing but I seldom have it so it’s not usually added. Not sure if it suffers or not.

Messy quesadilla.

That’s finger licking good.

Yesterday about noon I mixed some pizza dough for calzones for dinner.

After about an hour and a half later here's what it looked like.





Next I saute'd some slice peppers and onions and browned some Terranova's Italian sausage.





Don't have pictures of every step as I was also doing other things but here's two of the six I ended up making.


They were all different from pepperoni and mozzarella cheese to Italian sausage with peppers, onions and cheese.


They didn't come out perfect but they sure as heck tasted really good!





All of the crimped edges came undone. Oh well, I guess I'll have to do this again soon.





This was served with a nice salad and much enjoyed!
