Whats everyone cooking for Mothers Day?

[muddave]

I'm going to grill some chicken quarters, make some homemade coleslaw and praline cheese cake for desert.

We haven't made plans yet but if my in laws come over I'll probably cook a rib roast and a couple of rotisserie chickens.

We were talking about this last night. I think we settled on ribs...not sure what rub/sauce yet though.

undetermined yet...I'm not sure if I will be at my parents or my in-laws or both...

Toby K's Shish Kabobs using thighs as Nick suggested. My bride and I are really trying to eat healthy and drop some weight and that looked like a good one.

Probably some salmon. It's my wife's favorite. Also, I will have to come up with a non-meat dish . . . both of my daughters are vegetarians. However, it will have to be something other than a meatless lasagna. I've done that one to death! :roll:

Lew, here's a couple of really nice spring-like vegetarian dishes:
Stuffed portabella's... Just stuff them with a mixture of fresh spinach (torn or sliced into smaller pieces), toasted pine nuts, fresh oregano, salt/pepper, fresh garlic, sun-dried tomatoes (optional) grated Parmesan and/or asiago, romano cheeses, olive oil and a little balsamic vinegar. Toss all the ingredients together with the oil and vinegar, then stuff into prepared portabellas, and grill.

Red Quinoa and Avocado salad......
Ingredients:
1/3 cup red quinoa
2/3 cup water
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup diced cucumber
1/4 cup diced red onion

2 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin seed
salt and pepper to taste
2 cups baby spinach leaves
1 avocado - peeled, pitted and sliced
Directions:
1. Bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, and the water has been absorbed, about 15 to 20 minutes. Spread into a mixing bowl, and refrigerate until cold.
2. Once the quinoa has chilled, gently stir in the tomatoes, cucumber, and onion. Season with lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Divide the spinach leaves onto salad plates, and top with the quinoa salad. Garnish with the avocado slices to serve.

I've been thinking about making both of those dishes soon Just thought I would share...
