This is exactly what she did, updated yesterday.

A quick OCR to avoid neck pains :

Moussaka

(courtesy of @nolaegghead's wife)

2 large eggplants
1-2 large onions, chopped
6 toes garlio, minced
2 lbs ground lamb
4 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 (14 oz.) cans petite diced tomatoes
½ cup chopped fresh herbs (definitely include parsley, but whatever else you want!)
3 fresh large tomatoes (or 5 Roma), thinly sliced
salt and ground blaok pepper, Aleppo pepper, crushed Red pepper to taste

Topping:
2½ cups plain Greek yogurt
4 eggs
5 oz crumbled Feta cheese
2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1. Peel eggplant if desired, or peel stripes down them. Cut into ¼" thick slices. Spray baking sheets with cooking spray and spread slices on sheets. Spray top of slices also. Bake at 400F, turning once, until soft and turning brown. Alternatively, you can salt and 'sweat" the eggplant slices in a colander, then pan fry lightly in oil.

2. Heat 3-4 Tbsp oil in a large heavy pan. Sauté the onion and garlic until soft, but not browned. Add lamb and cook over high heat until browned.

3. Stir in the flour until mixed and starting to thicken. Add the canned tomatoes, herbs and other seasonings to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes.

4. Preheat oven to 350F. Layer half the eggplant slices in the bottom of a large, deep Lasagna pan (you may want to halve or quarter the slices to make serving/eating easier). Next, add a layer of tomato slices.

5. Top the slices with half of the meat/tomato mixture, then repeat the layers of eggplant and tomato. Cover with the remaining meat/tomato mixture.

6. Beat together the yogurt and eggs (by hand is best just until well mixed), then mix in the Feta and Parmesan cheeses. Pour the mixture over the top of the dish and spread it evenly.

7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden and bubbling. (You may want to broil for a couple of minutes at the end to brown the surface). Remove from oven and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.

thankyou, that was not working well with my vertigo

About 1lb each. One rubbed in SPG and the other in Dirty Cow from Angus & Oink. 

Just over 6 hours and then thirty minutes rest. As ever, followed the Cook’s Digest method courtesy @Stormbringer    Kept a bit of beef gravy in the pot for brushing on from time to time

Dayum. 👍

Split this beautiful 2.5"x2" 16oz ny strip with Mrs.C  We compromised with 132° ; she calls it medium-rare, I call it medium, so she doesn't think it can moo.

Making lemonade out of lemons.  

Was supposed to go to a friend’s ranch for the weekend.  In addition to enjoying ranch time, the Mrs and I were going to help care for and cook for his extended family.  16 of us in total.  We were specifically asked to bring dessert.  We had made some slutty brownies, molasses cookies, and we got two pineapples that we weee going to grill with cinnamon and drizzle with chocolate balsamic. 

But SWMBO had a minor sore throat and runny nose, so as a precaution she did a home COVOD test - and was positive.  

So we are staying in opposite parts of the house. 

So I thawed some wagyu/angus ground beef and used the pineapple and some teriyaki marinade.  And I’m grilling the rest of the pineapple with cinnamon. Will do the chocolate balsamic drizzle.

Yes.  It seemed the perfect thing to go with a triple batch of brownies and 60 molasses cookies for 2 people...

It's UKBBQ week 🇬🇧
Here's my Saturday sausage fest to mark the event last night; 

My first go at caramelised onions.
Please note the second 'a' - I know your penchant for deleting vowels.



What else says 🇬🇧 more than 🇩🇪 sausage on a 🇺🇸 grill?  

Yes, I like black pepper on coleslaw and I slipped a square of plastic cheese under the Brock'.
No, I don't like ketchup or mustard on stuff. 

Dessert was a second round of the same. 

And big news; SWMBO declared herself a fan of Brat'.  Fair to say her skepticism was palpable in the run up.

For a minute, it sounded like you banished her to the other end of the house... then proceeded to eat everything yourself. Glad to hear that you decided to cook for her, too. 

Hope she's feeling better by now.

Thanks @caliking.  She's about 80% better.  I tested negative this morning - figured it was appropriate to get tested since I'm working 36 hours starting tomorrow morning.  I picked up some wings at HEB to cook for her today as that is her favorite.  We're staying at least 10 feet apart at all times.
