Tuesdays Menu A Day Late

We had such a fun night last night I got side tracked. We had our “Dump Dinner” last night. This entails, Kielbasa, Corn On The Cob, Shrimp, Potatoes and French Bread.

Grocery Shopping this week I bought up large loafs for $1.00. When I look at what I am cooking during the week I want to use up my perishable items first. I keep the loafs of French Bread out so I remember to use them or they are put into the freezer.

So what is a Dump Dinner? We take Kielbasa, potatoes, shrimp, and corn on the cob, dump it into boiling water, when it is done we drain it.. “Dump” it onto the middle of the table which is lined with brown paper bags………

What is nice about a meal like this is that it is very informal. Bake the French bread, add butter and condiments onto the table and your set. I add my favorite jalapeño butter with garlic as well.

Another really fun idea I will discuss later in the season is called a “garbage can” party. This is essentially the same idea where guests bring food and you dump it into the garbage can.. You have a flame under it and you boil the food.. This is really fun! I will have a video for you when we have our annual party.
Cheers..
