1. i have a pork roast to put in the crock pot

it's going to be a rough night at work, so it will be nice to have something to come home to.

2. I'm gonna fix a shrimp salad using leftover roasted shrimp.

It's an Ina Garten recipe and looks interesting. I also might grill a portobello mushroom in garlic and olive oil, salt and pepper. I have some nice crusy bread to top it off with.

Cole slaw.

4. Roasted chicken with delicious roasted vegetables.

I put an herb combination under the skin and everything came out perfectly.

That's a good thing, because I will be eating this for several more nights!

Hope your meatballs worked out.

7. nice photos!

I noticed you often mention crowder peas, and that's unfamiliar to me, so it solved my curiosity to see a pic.

Sigh. I love okra. I wish I wasn't on this (permanent) low-glycemic diet. I would be having panko-crusted okra right now!

Love hot sauce on it. So good!

I used to grow okra. What huge plants they were, and the flowers were so pretty.

9. Here's a recipe I found in NY Times from one of the links elleng

posted. It's for roasted okra and I'm going to try this next time I have some smaller pods. You should be able to have it on your diet. All I put on mine is plain cornmeal, then fry it in a cast iron skillet in veg. oil. When I was a child, we children would fight over those blackened pieces, esp. the tip ends that were always so crispy.
