The Home and Camp Kitchen

Hello and thanks for the comments/emails I have received recently. I have been offline, more like not making time, with our recent camping trip and our hellhound Loki.  I will update in the upcoming  Sunday Salon linkup.

For now, lets visit with In My Kitchen and share with the weekend cooking series.

 First, the outdoor kitchen.  This is our setup at Stephen Foster Cultural Park where we recently spent 5 days.  It was so nice we could have spent more time but our campsite was booked and we'd probably run out of food. 

The camp kitchen has a Coleman stove where the veggies and potatoes were cooked.  Doug has a Weber Q 1200 gas grill, handy and just large enough, easy to pack for travel.

Notice Loki in his chair, hanging out and enjoying the nice weather.

Grilled ribeye with French green beans and scalloped potatoes was one meal we enjoyed. All of the cooking was done outdoors.

Home kitchen - this week's feature is Picadillo.  It's my SIL Barb's recipe and a damn fine one at that.  The aroma of garlic, peppers and onions always gets my stomach rumbling.

Simmering....I always add loads of olives.

Here it is plated.  Served with white rice, El Ebro black beans (the best!), Dole Maduras and homemade bread. For Barb's recipe click HERE.

A dessert indulgence this week was Tiramisu.  We hardly ever get something this rich so it was quite a treat. 

The plan today is to answer emails, visit a bit and go through all the photos I took camping. Planning on  trying Patatas Rellenas with the leftover Picadillo in the next day or so.  I hope all is well in your world and you and yours are happy and healthy.
