Beef tenderloin tonight. Getting our beef lately from J & J Grass Fed Beef -- all natural and, obviously, grass fed in Central California. Our shipment arrived a couple weeks ago (comes frozen, and I defrost what we need in the fridge.) Gotta go look up some beef recipes. I like something simple with a tenderloin, but a nice mustard or pepper crust sounds good.

Off to sample the wares at Disneyland today. We haven't had the best luck with the food there -- nothing horrible, just nothing memorable, either. Maybe we'll find an exciting new grub venue!

Killer Combination

We had a lovely meal (twice now) at the Legoland Sealife Aquarium. They have a restaurant upstairs that reminds us of the Auto Grill roadside cafes in Italy. My son ordered the yummiest combo of bacon, mushrooms and green onions, sauteed with house-made macaroni and cheese. We've duplicated this (usually with pancetta instead of bacon) in our omelets for a few months now. Then we branched out and put them on a homemade pizza, dough courtesy of Trader Joe's. And finally, it was fabulous with my own macaroni and 4-cheese recipe. Each time, I've just diced the pancetta (or bought pre-diced at TJ's), sliced a handful of mushrooms, and sliced 3 or 4 green onions, depending on how many people I'm feeding. Deliciously salty, creamy from the cheese, and a little crunch from the onions. OK, now I'm hungry again. Go! Eat now!
