It is a veggie nite

Sounds like a wonderful meal, sweet. We are, in fact, having spagetti with homemade sauce that's loaded with garlic, onions, and green peppers tonight. No meat at all. Sometimes we will go a full week w/o meat. Depends on what's in the freezer/cupboards.

What is Yoshida sauce? I've never heard of it. I love love love my veggies but there is no way I can go without a meat. Every so once in awhile I may have cheese in place of meat but I love my meat and could live on just that. Beans and rice sounds good though with a slab of ribs :)

Sounds delicious, but to be honest, I am afraid I would sneak some Kielbasa into that. Wait a minute! Pork chops are not meatless, heh, heh. We had pork ribs last night that came out pretty good. I cooked them on pressure in the multicooker for 1/2 hour first, then put then in our counter top infrared/convection oven to finish with red pepper/sweet onion bbq sauce. I am nuts about kitchen gadgets and had just bought a new sauce brush I was dying to try out. It worked really good. Made of silicone, it is small but packed with features. It has in addition to the thread-like things some strands of silicon with holes punched in them to hold the sauce, so it doesn't just run off like some bbq brushes. It also has a slant so that it can be set down on the counter top without getting it all gooey. Here is a pic: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/312mjYTMO%2BL._SS260_.jpg
