I can figure it out on my own i just thought y'all might have some better ideas for me to steal

Current plan so far is grilled eggplant steaks I'm gonna rub in olive oil and crushed toasted fennel seed/cumin/etc and serve with a drizzly lemon garlic tahini sauce, with one side being grilled broccolini that's also gonna be lemony and garlicky and good

the sous chef and i were lazy on Friday and didn't really figure out third thing but he was like "what about chickpeas and uhhhh tomatoes" so my current plan is roast some chickpeas, roast some diced tomatoes, toss it all together and season it like if i made harissa paste but leave the tomatoes chunky

any other ideas chat, or does that sound good, i get nervous my menu will be stupid. but chickpeas add protein and starch so like..

That sounds yummy but I'd like some carbs gonna suggest something adventurous like white rice with some veggies to soak up the juices afterward and eat it. I'm not a fancy chef tho so don't know it that's exciting or not just figured with how juicy the dish sounds having rice or bread afterward to clean up the plate is what my hungry ass would do

Choices: broccolini risotto where i make some risotto with vegetable stock and then chop the grilled broccolini and mix it in, OR

I do the chickpea thing but present it with like rice with a trench in the middle filled with the chickpea tomato spimach slop

[–] Wmill@hexbear.net 1 points 2 days ago

I am a fan of risotto but sounds like a lot of work the chickpea one sounds good still

mainstream "bacon bits" brand that doesn't actually have meat in it

Mushrooms. I would add mushroom in cream sauce as a side dish:()

lentils with herbs, dill, tarragon, lemon zest, and some mustard

Can't go wrong with a cucumber-tomato-onion salad.

[–] comrade_pibb@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago

Or tabbouleh!

would you rather have chopped grilled broccolini mixed in with couscous or with risotto

[–] principalkohoutek@hexbear.net 1 points 2 days ago

Both are a winner, couscous might be lower effort

Oh what if i do the chickpea thing but throw some wilted spinach in there, kinda like a harissa flavored chana saag sorta thing

Me, after being like "i definitely don't need your advice, but i'll take it": the fuck is a "tsundere"
