SNDC is Not a Dinner Club » CourtneySherwood

Mystery meal

CourtneySherwood — Sun, 14 Aug 2011 06:17:49 +0000

I haven’t quite figured out what we’ll be having when we gather at my place (1201 N.E. 21st) at noon Sunday, but I’ve got a few ideas. It may involved steamed eggplant from a recent New York Times recipe, or possibly an egg-based brunch recipe using tomatoes and basil. If you’d like to come but can’t eat any of those ingredients, let me know by about 10 a.m. and I should be able to adapt.

Veggie Burgers

CourtneySherwood — Sun, 10 Jul 2011 16:08:51 +0000

Hi folks, sorry I’m posting so late. ~~I can’t remember if I said that I could host at an unusual time today or not, so I’m going to stick with normal hours: noon~~ Because people are out of town at noon, we’ll do 5 PM at my place, 1201 N.E. 21st Ave.

I’ll have veggie burgers, buns and fixings, plus carrots and hummus to chomp. And if I can successfully fire up my grill, I propose we cook them over charcoal – though the stove’s a nice backup if that doesn’t work out.

SNDC for DINNER?

CourtneySherwood — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 15:45:19 +0000

I’d like to host this weekend, but I have a conflict over the lunch hour. Would you folks be up for trying a 6 p.m. dinner get-together at my place, 1201 N.E. 21st Ave.? I’m going to be off the grid from about 5 p.m. tonight (Friday) until 3-4 p.m. Sunday, so if this doesn’t work for folks hopefully you can work out an alternative plan without me.

I propose we try this Pinto-Bean Mole Chile. Please RSVP by commenting or emailing me if you can come.

My place at 1 p.m.

CourtneySherwood — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 05:05:08 +0000

I do believe it’s my turn to host. I propose we use this recipe for grains with oranges and dates, only with brown rice instead of couscous. I won’t have a pomegranite, but I think we’ll be fine without.

So, 1201 N.E. 21st Ave. I need to push it back to 1 p.m. Let me know if you can make it.

Pizza, my place, noon

CourtneySherwood — Sun, 06 Feb 2011 06:43:04 +0000

I’ll have the dough ready by then – either from Hot Lips or made before you get here. I’ll have red sauce or pesto, vegan mozzarella, and an assortment of vegetable toppings. We can make lots of configurations, so everyone should have an option that they like.

If anybody wants to bring something else, juice or soda would be good.

1201 N.E. 21st, Portland. Please RSVP if you see this.

My Place – Sunday

CourtneySherwood — Sun, 14 Nov 2010 03:40:59 +0000

Update at 10:18 a.m. Nov. 14: Let’s make this a test-run for Thanksgiving dishes, with roasted root vegetables and this tempeh mushroom dish.

–

Earlier: I haven’t had time to figure out what we’ll be eating, though it’s probably going to come from the New York Times. But be at my place (1201 N.E. 21st) by noon Sunday and we’ll cook good food. I’ll post a recipe Sunday morning.

Not veggie pot pie

CourtneySherwood — Sun, 19 Sep 2010 00:55:51 +0000

Update: We had veggie pot pie last week, so I’m retracting my proposal that we do it again. Instead: Zucchini Pilaf With Almonds, doubled recipe. I do not have, but will plan to buy: 1 tablespoon non-dairy margarine, 2 cups vegetable broth, 1 teaspoon allspice, 4 cloves garlic, 6 tablespoons chopped cilantro. I also have the fixings for salad – lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and assorted dressings. And I’ve got fresh melon.

Noon, my place (1201 N.E. 21st).

Picnic at an unknown location

CourtneySherwood — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 05:49:19 +0000

I’m hosting this week, but I’m not sure where. Let’s meet up and have a picnic at Mike’s Sunday Parkways location, to be determined on Sunday morning. Mike will let us know where to go when he knows where to go.

The menu?

I’ll bring:

Vegan potato salad
Fruit – probably oranges and/or bananas
Veggies and hummus
Some kind of bean-based salad, to be determined.

I’ll also have a picnic blanket, a bunch of reusable plastic cups and serving utensils. I’ll buy some paper plates in the morning, unless anybody here happens to have them on hand.

If other folks can bring juice/water/other beverages, I think we’ll have a complete spread.

Let’s do lunch

CourtneySherwood — Fri, 07 May 2010 02:00:32 +0000

Since we’re getting together at my place (1201 N.E. 21st) at noon this Sunday and I want to test my new grill, let’s call it lunch. Veggie burgers and salad. I’ll provide the veggie burgers, these greens and other salad fixings and a bread or bun option for the burgers. I’ve got dairy cheese, and will grab some vegan cheese on Saturday evening unless someone else has extra vegan cheese already sitting around. I’ve also got onions, lettuce, ketchup and mustard for the burgers. If you’ve got other toppings you like (pickles, mayo, tomatoes, etc.) feel free to bring them. See you Sunday!

My turn to host

CourtneySherwood — Sat, 10 Apr 2010 21:26:58 +0000

I believe it’s my turn to host this week, so be at my place at noon Sunday, April 11. I’m at 1201 N.E. 21st Ave.

I’d like to try lunch instead of brunch: falafel sandwiches. I’ve got pita bread, falafel mix, lettuce and will get hummus, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions and sprouts. I’ve also got oranges and bananas to munch on as we assemble our food. And I may offer some plain sour yogurt, which I’ve sometimes had served with falafel at Lebanese restaurants.

If anybody would like to bring apple juice or other beverages, I think that would be a nice accompaniment to our meal. Pre-made tabouli could also be nice.

Please RSVP here or e-mail me, so that I’m sure to have enough food. I’ve been absentee for a few weeks, but I’m looking forward to seeing folks again.
