Today for dinner I had a wonderfully light, filling, comforting meal of congee, seasoned with sesame oil and soy sauce, and topped with an over-easy fried egg. Yum. I only wish I had green onions to top it with.

Tomorrow's dinner is going to be something heartier and meatier, though, I think. But I'm not sure what. So I'll open the poll early. ;)

(This month's Washoku challenge is a bevy of miso dishes, but I can't make those until I've had a trip to Uwajimaya. Looking forward to it, thought!)

I admit, I'm voting partially for steak tips because I saw it in the recent issue of Cook's Illustrated and am curious about how it turns out. I've never made it. I should have also voted for stuffed peppers, btw, but I forgot...

That is exactly where I got the idea from. :D I bought some mushrooms especially for that, so I'll definitely be doing it this week sometime, before they go bad.

I'll let you know how they come out!

I voted spaghetti because that's what I'm making for dinner tonight too!

Spaghetti and meatballs is one of my favorite thing. :) (Especially with the Cook's Illustrated meatball recipe... yum.)

I highly recommend planting a row of green onions in your herb area. I LOVE being able to pick them a few at a time rather than having to buy an entire bunch at the store. And they're much crunchier home-grown.

Yes, that's a great idea! (I never wind up using enough green onions to use up the whole bunch when I buy them, no matter how hard I try to think up stuff to put them in.)

I'm growing a bunch of green onions because I bought a bunch and didn't use them all. So then I cut off the top green stuff(which had started turning icky) and stuck them in dirt.

The silly thing is, we still buy them from the store when we need to use them because for some reason we forget that we have them growing. Also, mine are pretty thick. Some are maybe an inch in diameter.

I voted for spaghetti and meatballs because I have been meaning to make that for awhile and just haven't gotten around to it.

For green onions, grilling them with some olive oil and salt turns them into a tasty side to slice and have with grilled meats or to put with a mixed grill of veggies.
