Lordy, lordy, my darlings. It has been so long. Way too long. Brian is so ashamed by my lack of attention to Dinner is Served! that he can’t even show his face. In my defense, I started a new job at the beginning of May and it requires a lot more of my attention thanContinue reading Lessons in Leftovers: Hot Corn Crab Artichoke Dip

107. Seafood Mousse
I know that I’ve mentioned that DiS! offers up desserts and brunches in addition to their giant-ass dinners. Well, #107 is a luncheon. I don’t know why, but for some reason luncheon sounds fancy. Fancier than brunch, right? And seriously, what’s fancier than crustacean-flavored Jell-O? By the way, Cleve was thrilled when I announced that IContinue reading 107. Seafood Mousse
Pittsburgh Chipped Ham Barbecue Sandwiches with Church Lady Slaw
Ah, the Chipped Ham Barbecue Sammich. A Pittsburgh classic–much like the Turkey Devonshire or the epic sandwiches from Primanti Bros. For some unknown reason I found myself with a craving for a Chipped Ham (Chip Chop Ham) BBQ earlier this month. It was odd because I hadn’t had one in so long and I don’t recall beingContinue reading Pittsburgh Chipped Ham Barbecue Sandwiches with Church Lady Slaw
76. Stuffed Green Peppers
This was my Hurricane Irene meal. Or, as I liked to call it: Hurrican’t Irene or Hurrilame Irene. I don’t want to make light of the flooding and destruction that happened in other parts of the country but here in my little sliver of Baltimore City, we never lost power or cable television. The lights didn’tContinue reading 76. Stuffed Green Peppers
100. Crab Louis
Ah, Louie, Louie, oh no, said we gotta go….yah yah yah yah yah yah. OK, so I got that out of the way. Um. No I didn’t. Because that song made me go here: And then that started this stream of consciousness rant: Damn! That’s Priscilla Presley at the end of that clip! I rememberContinue reading 100. Crab Louis
57. Chicken Pot Pie
Greetings and Salutations! I haven’t served dinner recently because I was in Las Vegas last week. I will expound on the Vegas trip in my next post, but I will tell you this: it is a good thing that I made #57 and used my last whole chicken before I left for Sin City. Why?Continue reading 57. Chicken Pot Pie
101. Potato Salad
I haven’t posted in a while because I have been out of commission for a bit. Last weekend I was back in the Burgh for the holiday weekend and then as soon as I got home I came down with a bit of a cold. In turn, Cleve has come down with the same thing.Continue reading 101. Potato Salad
80. Tuna on Toasted English Muffins
Tuna on Toasted English Muffins *sigh.* Goddamned canned tuna. Pretty organic grapefruit! I have never liked canned tuna, even more so after Tuna Cheese Macaroni Loaf. But I chose #80 for my latest meal because I already had canned tuna in the house and a grapefruit was the last unused item from my Arganica Farm Club crateContinue reading 80. Tuna on Toasted English Muffins
18. Sweet and Sour Shrimp
1970s at-home Chinese cuisine. Let that idea marinate in your brain for a bit. Scary, right? I went into #18 with a bit of trepidation just because I really love Chinese food and despise Wok and Roll, LaChoy mall food court Chinese food. I have cooked a lot of Chinese food in my day. InContinue reading 18. Sweet and Sour Shrimp
54. Shrimp Creole
Now, I didn’t plan to prepare a Creole dish for Mardi Gras, because I really don’t keep track of such drinking holidays. I don’t need a reason to drink–your Cinco de Mayo is one of my any given Thursdays. Now on to Creole Shrimp! Now, with this recipe I followed it to the letter. TheContinue reading 54. Shrimp Creole
