Dinner !

Had three more 5 gallon buckets of tomatoes to process today... just turned 2 buckets into homemade pizza sauce for the freezer. Prior to beginning that process I put together some homemade garlic and herb pizza dough so it would be ready when the sauce was done.

Onions, roma tomatoes and green peppers from the garden on one...:yum:

Pepperoni and sausage for the non-produce loving kids on the other...:ohwell:
 
Finally tried Olive Garden, Mom's request for her birthday. Ate too much, came home and we had cake and black cherry ice cream. I can't move, but the sugar rush makes me want to. :lol:

Happy B'day to your mom.

Yeah, always feel like you eat too much there.

Ohh yummm care to share the recipe? I'm from PA so my pot pie recipe is different from the ones I find here in SoMd. I love both though !! the PA Dutch kind calls for the home made dough noodles which are a pain
Maybe the next time you make the dough noodles, get some of those Cresent Rolls from a can, roll it, and slice into noodles. I did that before, and it was great..easy too.

I am so very blessed

That sounds so freaking awesome! I am now cooking down 12 quarts of tomato sauce, to join the 20 quarts of spaghetti sauce we canned last week. I can foresee another sauce making day for Tuesday or Wednesday, too.

I get so sick of tomatoes by this time of the summer, but then when fall and winter come around it is sooooo worth it. I'll be making more salsa on Tuesday with the other bucket and any more tomatoes that need pickin'.

but the lack of a recipe is the best part of meatlof :( I just throw a bunch of crap in the meat (oatmeal or panko, eggs, spices)..and then mix worstshire, ketchup, some random spices, and brown sugar to make the sauce.

Sometimes I will make several smaller meatloaves and put them on a cookie sheet (they cook faster and are easier to serve) and stuff them with chredded chedder cheese :drool:

Sounds great! I'm looking forward to trying that Chredded Chedder too!:roflmao:

My MIL is from PA and makes it like you do....my hubby loves her "chicken pot pie". I'm originally from NY so I never had it made that way before. It's a pain in the azz! Hubby & I made it once and decided to just request it when we visit her. :biggrin:

My MIL gave me her recipe for Chicken Pot-pie. It is pretty easy, even the rolling out of the noodles. Her recipe calls for adding a can of stewed tomatoes, (but then just about every recipe she makes calls for a can of stewed tomatoes, which I HATE). I omit them and added carrots, mostly for color. I thought she was going to faint. She's allowed me to stay in the family anyway - mostly because I make good stuffed cabbage and pierogis (her recipes, too). I think if I ever tried to use crescent rolls for noodles, she'd kill me. (She once explained to me how some recipes call for eggs, some for butter, some for lard and which nationality used which (Polish, Lithuanian, PA Dutch) she's very serious about her recipes) IMHO, pot pie is a fall/winter meal. Too hot to make and too heavy to eat this time of year.

Slippery pot pie. YUM!

A friend of mine used to make it with ham, too, and I could eat a whole pot of it.
