An Asian Flair

Well, I forgot to post about last week's New Food.  We went for something totally different - and something that Mr. Rick was not real certain about.

We tried Thai Food!


The recipe says Thai Pork Noodle Bowl  The recipe called for pork chops but Miss Annette used a pork loin.  Make a marinade of soy sauce, cilantro, garlic, brown sugar vegetable oil and lime. Set 1/4 cup of this aside and pour the rest of marinade over the pork.


This is what the pork loin looked like after baking.  I said it kinda looked like a giant slug.  LOL

Take pasta noodles and cook according to directions.  Made a sauce of garlic, lime peanut butter and hot water.  Drain the pasta and toss with the peanut sauce.  (If desired you can add soy sauce also to this),


Miss Annette sliced up the pork loin and, after placing the noodles in a serving dish she put the sliced pork on top of pasta.  Pour the reserved sauce over the meat. Doesn't this look good?  It was!  Chris really enjoyed the peanut noodles!

We also had Asian Salad.  This is a mix that we pick up at Sam's and is very good.



Gary was in charge of dessert and he opted for something traditional and chocolate.


His Grandmom's chocolate pie!  He loves this recipe:  Milk, eggs, sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, salt, vanilla and butter.  It's good stuff!.

Who wants to make a reservation for next week's meal?
