Doctor, Visitor, Lunch,

Managed to persuade the doctor's office to get the doc to call us and give us the rundown on Matt's ultrasound and X ray. That saved us the pain and drag of going to their office. Nobody phoned yet though. Now it is bedtime and still nobody phone, guess I may have screwed that all up right royally, but taking Matt such a distance in the first place and then waiting, as one does, to see the doctor, makes him get very agitated. I have to take him for blood work in the morning, maybe I will have time to phone them  before we go out to lunch with ladydog.

Margaret, the Social Worker, called again this morning. Not sure why, just checking up on us or something. I remembered to ask her where she was from, Ghana was the answer. Nice woman. Still having a little trouble understanding her. Says she will phone me in a couple of weeks.

A I mentioned, we have planned, ladydog and I, to take Matt to the Red Lobster tomorrow for a birthday lunch. He received his free dessert coupon this morning. Chocolate Wave Cake in the offing once again.

I thought this might be a meal worth trying. I have an idea they could be adapted to be cooked in the air fryer, not studied it closely yet.

Loaded Cauliflower Bowls

Enjoy these comforting roasted cauliflower bowls topped with cheese, bacon, scallions and sour
cream on their own, or add grilled chicken or shrimp to make it a full meal

6 cups small cauliflower florets
1 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil
¾ cup shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
½ tsp ground pepper, divided
¼ tsp salt
2 scallions, thinly sliced, divided
4 Tbs sour cream
4 slices cooked bacon, chopped

1. Preheat oven to 425° F.

2. Toss cauliflower and oil together in a large bowl. Transfer to a large rimmed baking sheet; roast until just tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Return to the bowl and stir in 1/2 cup Cheddar, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, salt and half the scallions. Divide the cauliflower mixture among 4 bowls, then top each with sour cream, bacon and the remaining cheese, scallions and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Servings: 4

  2. Echoing Hilary.
    The cauliflower bowls look and sound good but cooking isn't a happening thing here at the moment. It is too hot to cook and to hot to eat hot food.

    1. Thanks Sue. Well you will have to save the recipe for your winter time. I can't imagine being that hot right now.

  3. If I had to go to the doctor as often as Matt, I'd be agitated as well.

  4. I haven't been to Red Lobster in years. A friend of mine says the quality and service has declined. He calls it Dead Mobster!

    1. That's funny David. We always enjoy it, the one on Weber St. Go there quite a lot.

    2. I think that's the one he's referring to. He lives in a condo on King St. just south of Ottawa. In fact, if you know where Rockway Centre is, the building he lives in is directly opposite.

    3. Yes, I know where Rockway Centre is David. It may not be top class gourmet cuisine but we always enjoy going there.

  5. I'm glad you have the doctor being co-operative. Unless they need to do further investigations having to go in is a big hassle.

    1. It certainly is for us Helen. You would know more than I. I hope your doctor is closer to you than ours is to us.
