Tuesday's Dinner

We got home a little early yesterday and decided to try something new for dinner.  We decided on Venison Cordon Bleu (which was a first) and, for the side, finally cooked the brussels sprouts we picked up at the farmers' market Saturday.  Here's how it went:


Cut the brussels in half, pounded venison loin chops to about 1/2," and marinated the venison in a garlic butter marinade.

After marinating for a bit, I lined the venison chop with lunch meat - whatever kind it was I had in the fridge last night - then smeared the whole thing with laughing cow light swiss cheese spread.  (Sorry, this picture looks REALLY bad...I forgot to take it before I rolled up the concoction, so I had to unroll, then take the picture.)

Here...prettier...all rolled up.

Then, wrapped each with 2 pieces of bacon...

Over to the brussels - here's the ingredients:

Sautee onions and garlic in olive oil, then add a little balsamic vinegar, honey, and some crasins.  Let those cook down for a bit, then just throw in the sprouts and let them cook until they're as tender as you like!


While I was working on that, the cordons were cooking on the grill...all done!

And plated!

What about me???

At least a lick???
