Sorta-kinda, not at all. French dressing usually has something "red" in it, like ketchup. The homemade sauce that the Late Night Gourmet made has chili sauce in it - which, as far as I can tell, is ketchup with sweet pickle relish in it. Neither of those would be allowed to taint my Reuben sandwich, though. We're more of a spicy horseradish-mustard sauce type family when it comes to Reubens and many other sandwiches.A bit like our tartare sauce, with added bits?
Personally, I think I'm leaning more toward the "horribly". Chicken nuggets on a Reuben? WHY??? I'm guessing this is some sort of Michigan thing...View attachment 8035
When I cook, I almost always make things difficult for myself. I don't do this because I enjoy pain, but rather because I can always see a better outcome when I put in the extra effort. In this case, though, I may have gone too far. Observe how a simple idea went horribly, wonderfully wrong...
Had the old folks special at the local buffet.
This looks like a lovely light lasagne.Lunch today was lasagne. Stuffed with aubergine (flavoured with fresh minced mint and grated pecorino cheese) and fresh tomatoes with a lot of basil

Getting pretty cold here so penne arrabiata - with bacon & black olives plus a big salad with goats cheese & walnuts.
Earlier today I had a duck pilaf with brown rice & quinoa that I made on Monday, but enough to feed an army.
This looks like a lovely light lasagne.
I also love the egg yolk color in the pasta sheets.Definitely light. No bechamel, no mozzarella, no tomato sauce but only fresh tomatoes ( previously blanched). And the fresh mint gave to these lasagne a pinch of freshness...
Breakfast for dinner! Yes! This reminds me, despite what I usually make, that breakfast is my favorite meal of the day.We were going to have sauteed Italian sausage-pepper-onions on a bed of polenta for supper...until I came home from appointments and realized the package of sausage I was looking for in the refrigerator was still in the freezer. Plan B was "breakfast-for-supper" anyway. We shared a mushroom omelet with chervil and colby-jack cheese, home fries, and slices of ham. I grabbed the last slab of Sally Lunn bread for toast, while hubby had the rest of the peasant bread that was leftover from the panzanella. The sausage in currently defrosting in the refrigerator.
