Chili Dogs or Pancakes

Tonight was diner's choice: either chili dogs or breakfast for supper. I chose the chili dog for My Daily Plate. I made the chili with 96/4 ground beef, mustard, ketchup, tomato sauce, molasses, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne pepper, Tabasco sauce, chili powder, garlic and onions. I added pico de gallo and cheddar cheese to make a nice, spicy dog.

The other choice was lean breakfast sausage and chocolate, chocolate chip pancakes made with whole wheat flour. I'm told that the other dinner offering was also a big success. It was a tasty Friday night supper that was quick and easy to make.

     Tonight's Daily Plate features adobo pork loin chops grilled along with Cajun spiced fresh zucchini from my garden. Watermelon completes the entree for a fresh, spicy summer meal.   Adobo Pork Loin Chops      The zucchini was marinated in olive oil, lime juice, honey, salt and Cajun seasoning. When grilled, it blackened slightly, adding a nice grilled flavor. The zucchini was not a favorite with most of the family, but I personally thought it was delicious. Of course, most of the family thinks vegetables are limited to potatoes, English peas and broccoli.

Finally, I had a serving of simple potato crowns for a bit of crunch. A quick, simple but delicious meal.
