A whacking load of yellow beans, trimmed, steamed and sautéed in olive
oil with chopped garlic until roasted on the outside.

A dozen small new potatoes cooked last night, halved and sautéed with a
touch of coarse salt and black pepper.

A smallish Greek pita made up like a pizza: pesto, green and red
chopped peppers and crumbled goat's milk cheese.

If you think that's a lot of fat, I use spritzers for the oil.

That sounds especially good.

I had a substantial lunch at an Indian buffet so wasn't really hungry.
Nonetheless, I continued my plans to practice grilling. I had some
partially baked ribs already (2 hr at 250), and stopped on the way
home and bought skinless chicken legs and a small piece of pork loin.
I finished up the ribs, then started the chix and roast. The
temperature is winding down and I'll leave the meat on it until it's
not warm enough. I'll evaluate samples and bring the rest to work
tomorrow.

What a coincidence! I also had a substantial Indian buffet lunch
today. It was good, but I wasn't too hungry even after work. Instead
of grilling, I practiced making lasagna. I used ground beef that was
on sale and italian sausage (casing removed of course) for the meat in
the sauce. By the time I was done, I was more than ready to eat a
slice. Boy, I had forgotten how good the homemade stuff was - these
days, everyone I know brings the Stouffer's kind to parties and such.
