After the fact now: we did roasted Cornish hens seasoned with fresh rosemary, garlic powder, kosher salt and cracked black pepper, along with roasted carrots, radishes, red onion, garlic cloves and celery, and fresh mashed rutabagas with pan-juice gravy.

Fact: roasted radishes taste something like turnips.

Another fact: I see your alternate spacetime continuum got me again: that was last night's dinner. The night before we had...*thinks*... Meat ravioli and leftover homemade red sauce? Yeah, maybe.

Well, last night's dinner was more descriptive.

LOL right? Not much to say about frozen ground beef ravioli and a fairly complicated red sauce with homemade ground beef and ground pork sausage meatballs (the other person's contribution to same meal) without writing you a book on the ingredients in the sauce alone. Figured I'd spare you and your readers, but if you really want to know, I don't remember what the heck I put in besides the basics of it anyhow.

I almost never make the same red sauce twice, though, so what I added to any particular one a) more often than not eludes me soon enough and b) doesn't matter anyhow as I'll never be making it quite the same way again.

I had shoukshaka -- basically a dense red sauce with poached eggs floated on top. Plenty of recipe suggestions online, but you know enough about food to figure it out from here if you wish.

Alas, I'm the only one in my family who likes shakshouka.
