I love the idea of attaching themes to days of the week and even calendar dates.
My favorites include Taco Tuesday, Pi Day, and most definitely Meatball Monday. Notice how my version is NOT meatless Monday- anyone surprised? Here’s another idea, and noooo it’s not Tofu Thursday:
How about Skewered Saturday? For this theme, the skewers could consist of any item cooked on a stick ranging from satays to shish kabobs. Yep cooking food over fire on a stick seems to be a method of cooking thatsocieties have in common. There’s just something primal about the smell of meat caramelizing as it sizzles and browns over an open fire. Yum, cave man food.
The magnificent Hawaiian version of open fire cooking style comes to my hungry mind. With Hawaii three things usually come to mind: volcanos, giant waves, and luaus. Since I don’t surf--why would I own a board that I don’t cut meat on--and I don’t live near any volcanos, I’ll settle for Luau style cuisine.
