I had a very late lunch, which was a HUGE, so I'm going light with my ice cream tonight, and having a root beer float. :)

I really didn't feel much like making dinner tonight. I had some cottage cheese with a ton of fresh cracked black pepper and cherry tomatoes. Yum!

Being I will be gone most of the afternoon I will be picking up a take out for dinner...not sure what as of yet.

I made rigatoni with tomato sauce for my spouse before I went to work today, and I had scrambled eggs with sugar snap peas and lots of garlic!

crumbled a whole roll of saltines into a very tall large glass ... then put the milk to it!

gave Jennifer about 2 table spoons each

As if I hadn't already run out of ideas..... purchased 35 lbs of chicken breasts.... what the hell was I thinking?

Oh ya, only $1.57 per pound. HUGE savings, HUGE.

My Son is weightlifting, and working very physical job. Gotta keep the man healthy. He still loves my cooking, lol.

So I will continue to cook chicken... :jester:

Tonight will be tuna salad served on a bed of butter lettuce, on the side will be sliced tomatoes, thing slices sweet onion and sliced cucumber along with cherry tomato cause I like them. Maybe I will break out the electric grill then grill some veggies too. The veggies will be topped with a lemon herb dressing , I am glad spring is hear.

Greek salad with sliced grilled chicken.

It's date night with the girlfriend, and I've already looked at the menu and decided what I want (because I am a dork like that).

Spit-fire roasted pork shoulder over polenta with braised greens...unless they can tempt me with their special. :eating:

My spouse just wanted leftover rigatoni, and I just grazed on cheese, peanut butter, and olives.:jester::jester:

I've had a craving for egg salad so I whipped some up with Duke's mayo and will have it on top of a lettuce salad with carrots, tomatoes and an avocado.

Trying to wait until the egg salad gets cold. It's hard.

So, when I came home from work I started cooking for the weekend.

1) made a vegan pot pie...mushrooms, green beans, carrots, onion, pepper, broccoli, peas and corn, with a country gravy.

2) hand pies stuffed with mushroom, spinach, onion and pepper with a vegan cream sauce

3) pinto beans and Spanish rice (always have pinto beans made in this house *shrugs*)

4) biscuits

yesterday I made homemade mac and cheese for the vegetarians

not really hungry ...

repeat of last night ...

saltine crackers hand-crushed in a huge glass of milk, big spoon required ;)

We went to Outback for date night!

Yumbolicious:wine:

We have leftovers so tonight is easy! My daughter is taking a cooking class for teens that is focused on "Learn how to make 10 good things so you don't starve when you move away from home". Yesterday was the first day. She fully prepared a whole roasted chicken, including breaking it down and plating for us. That and we have lots of veggies prepped and ready in the fridge. Loving the independence that will come with this class! She'll be making dinner every Friday for the next 9 weeks. If it goes well, that is. I know she has homework next week to learn how to prep dried beans- soak and long cook. Whoop!

I love cooking outside and pretty much prepare dinner in the driveway whenever I cook. Last night I made beef soup and the neighbors were sharking me the entire time.

store-bought bbq chicken...hard not to like something you can eat immediately.

Okay, chicken breasts, lmao.....

with brown/saffron rice...

will cook:
green beans with almonds
green beans with mushrooms and onions
green beans with baked beans

additional goodies:
avocado w/ spinach
spinach salad w/feta, olives, tomato
mozzarella w/tomato, olives etc.

That should cover next week! :koolaid:

Salmon roasted low and slow
Mashed carrots and yams with ginger
Spinach, red onion, bacon, & goat cheese salad
For dessert, raspberries with home made whipped cream and dark chocolate flakes
To drink, Toasted Head Chardonnay

I bought a pound of live mussels while out and about today, so I am going to saute those along with some chunked up veggies in a garlic butter sauce seasoned with some mediterranean herbs. :kungfu:

Last night I grilled some Sabrett hotdogs and made grilled potato salad. I will be making waffles this evening with omelets and grilled sausage.

I made some fried cabbage and kielbasa with onions and garlic for my spouse, and I had mine with veggie hot dogs instead of kielbasa. And some home made coleslaw with apples and a few raisins thrown in.

-lima beans
-ham
-corn bread (not the sweet kind)
-Diet Rite cola to drink

chili w/cheese on fries

A Mexican beef noodle dish mom found online!

Supper tonight was pan fried potatoes and chicken tenderloins with garlic cloves, topped off with non-dairy ranch sauce (homemade). Very Yummy. : )

I had breakfast for supper :D

Biscuits, sausage, bacon, waffles, gravy and eggs to choose from. Nummy!

Dinner
 

I was craving the olive loaf lunch meat I don't know why because I have never craved it before. So I made an olive loaf lunch meat sandwich with cheddar cheese, tomatoes, and greens. Chips on the side and ice tea to drink.

:cowboy:

Leftover mussels and veggies from last night.

Either beef or shrimps fajitas...

Fried up some ham slices accompanied by some mushroom rice (from a microwavable bag that said it was 'risotto' hahahaha...um, nope)

I had a cheese sandwich on low carb bread with kale and spicy mustard, and a side of homemade coleslaw.

Been at the Hyatt Wash DC for 3 days already a bit tired of the menu....including all restaurants.

When i get home a steak on the BBQ ... salad and cottage cheese!

I will be at the clinic getting my back shot up today so I doubt I will have brain cells to think so I can cook. So I already made calzones and they are in the fridge coved so when my son gets home he will pop them in the oven to cook. Yes I said my son, seams like he has learned a thing or two about cooking that isn't done with the microwave, Sunday he made passable biskits for breakfast. He is also making a salad to go with the calzones.
