What's for dinner?

Tweet

So, I've been trying to be a helpful roommate and getting stuff started, or at least assembled, for dinner. However, when I looked at the recipe for what we had planned for dinner, it said to marinade for 12 or more hours... oops... we didn't even pull the meat until this morning. Well, tomorrow night's dinner is one we have made before called "Pirate's Delight." It is a fish dish. Easy swap, for a change. Also, they had wanted a 6-8 pound pork loin and it feeds 6-8 people. There are just the two of us, and we're on a diet... We had pulled a big chop this morning, so what I did was adapt (read, put lots less than the amount of stuff) to make the marinade and poured it the ziplock to marinade until tomorrow. Since we weren't having pork tonight, we could have a meal with black pepper - I'm allergic to black pepper, but also allergic to pork and the two together are worse than either one by themselves. So, the roomie brought out an acorn squash and fixed it with Mrs. Dash, garlic and butter. Then, after that was started, I went and tracked down a couple of cod loins to start thawing. When we get 30 minutes in, we'll fix the fish and shove that in the oven too. I guess I need to think about a veggie, since the squash counts as a carb. Then, tomorrow we'll be more ready for dinner without the surprise!
