Dinner at Home
Steamed Artichokes
Trim the spiky tops of the outer leave with scissors. Trim the stalks to approx. 1/2 inch and place in a stockpot containing a couple of inches boiling water. Cover and simmer for 40 minutes, or until you can easily pluck a leaf from the center.
Garlic Lemon Butter
Mince a whole head of peeled garlic cloves. Add to a stick of butter over low heat and simmer for the entire time that the artichokes are steaming. Add the juice of 1/2 lemon right at the end and stir. Serve with the artichokes as a dipping sauce.
Leftover Casserole
This casserole was a combo of shredded rotisserie chicken, leftover homemade tomato sauce from the lasagna a few days ago, and the leftover centers of the zuchinni from the lasagna. Topped with cheese and fresh basil, I just baked this concoction for about 20 minutes, or until heated throughout. A good way to get rid of all the things in the fridge that will either go bad soon, or just not get eaten on their own.
