Day 14 was Thursday night which is the night Philip and I go out - so the name of the game is get through dinner/baths easily and quickly so we can head out. That said, we had pizza and left over pasta with peas. Sofia ate the pasta, Liam ate the pizza and Jack ate both!
Day 15: The menu called for this Grilled Halibut with tomato bbq sauce and a honey mustard polenta. well, it was foggy today which does not make the grill to exciting and today we have our current tenants moving out and new tenants moving in so the afternoon was a little hectic. BY the time I got home and started cooking dinner, I would not have time to get the halibut together, so I did the polenta and made some mini meatballs to go with it.
As for the polenta, I only had slow cooking corn meal, so I did it in the oven (instead of stirring on the stove top for 25 minutes). It worked really well and was easy. Mix 1 cup of cornmeal with 3.75 c of liquid (i did 2 c milk and 1.75 chicken broth). Put it in a buttered 8x8 glass pan and bake for 50 minutes at 350. After 50 min run a fork through it bake 10 more minutes. Add butter and parm and a little salt/pepper.
Verdicts:
Sofia: Loved and ate everything.
Jack: ditto
Liam: Ate what seemed like 100 meatballs. did not touch the polenta.
