I use to drink a boost most mornings, so recently bought a plant based protein drink. More expensive for sure but they do last longer, since they taste like card board. lol there just sitting in my fridge.
I'm hoping I'll be able acquire, a taste for them.
I've had some rather good vegan chocolate too.
Maybe try a vegan bakery, if you have one in your area. Oh nevermind, that's still chocolate, just no milk. Won't help you. Sorry
I tried some of those dairy free chocolates, they are not bad at all.
psue - I love popcorn with lots of "butter" - in my case earth balance marg. I often cook for R and eat something else myself.
Tonight ham steak, roasted veggies - opo squash with cinnamon, onions and cucumbers with dill - and perogies.
Amazon got my dairy free chocolate here after supper. I tried a square of a dark choc bar. It is dairy free but - meh - not up to the really good chocolate I like, but better than nothing - I think. The 5 chili one should be interesting. Maybe I will use it in a mole sauce.
Sloppy joes tonight, I think someo e mentioned them a few weeks ago. Was a great idea
All my fall harvesting is done and finished, in jars or freezer! 😁
I'm actually thinking I , am going to find time to make and freeze apple sauce.
Just gotta go to are local Apple orchard and get seconds.
I gave my DH real food. I swear.
Heat up a few tablespoons of olive oil, add garlic, parsley, the spaghetti, the stock, fry it for like ten minutes.
Season to taste. It's really good.and simple
Carrots, everyone has been talking about carrots , so I had a craving. Mashed potatoes, and a cheaper piece of beef in the crockpot
For me it’s a Wine and Whine night with a girlfriend so crackers and cheeses, nuts and figs and lots of catching up! We’ll wrap up in fleece throws on the deck and watch the bats.
cwillie, everybody is complaining about the new Pepsi packaging. It’s very good looking and I appreciate the effort for the environment but I think they need to go back to the drawing board.
Oh dear. R brought home a container of oysters the other day I was trying to forget about. He correctly said this evening that these should be cooked. I hadn't egged and bread crumbed anything in years and years.
Guess what? They turned out ok. Next time I will have some gluten free bread crumbs on hand so I can eat them too.
Does anyone have a fave oyster recipe?
and don’t be afraid to take whisks.
R freezes eggs when they have too many at the farm. He just cracks them and throws a few in a baggie and into the freezer - good for baking, scrambled or whatever.
Tonight I made a version of bubble and squeak - cooked them in patties rather than a whole pan full. We had leftover mashed potatoes and left over brussels sprouts which are traditional for bubble and squeak. I cooked bacon to serve with the patties and we had tomatoes from the farmer's market. Not the healthiest meal but R pronounced it good. I had to pass on the patties due to milk and butter in the mashed potatoes. One of these days I'll make proper latkes.
Nacy - I had 4 kids, (three boys) and often extras in the house and a husband with a big appetite. I still cook for six often. It's hard to break that habit.
We have predator birds and it is difficult to see them swoop in on doves or other birds but, I would feed them eggs to stop :-)
I discovered the egg freezing during covey and thought I would see how well it worked, I was happy dancing. I'm easy to entertain. Hope you all have great results if you try it.
Tonight it’s homemade baked chicken burritos (shredded breast, brown rice, black beans, fire roasted corn, cheddar) and green salad with a gorgeous tomato from SIL’s garden.
They are great for recipes or even scrambled eggs.
I have to say that I did not even know eggs had a best by date until my husband asked me about it. I was like, whaaaat? No, eggs don't go bad unless they are bad, only 1 in my life and there was no question that baby was bad, ewwww!
He was very missed when he retired. 😁
Left overs , or I'll give some to friends in the neighborhood.
I had to look up campanelle, it's kind of similar to rotini I think (okay I've had another look and they're nothing like rotini!)
Two cans of tomatoes and one of sauce must make a big batch!
I'm having chicken bites sized pieces, cooked , 2 cans of basil and garlic diced tomatoes, one can of tomato sauce, onions all the good seasoning, a pinch of hot pepper. Spinach,
Served over campanelle, it's simmering now. Smells sooo good.
Pam, nothing beats a ham and bean or split pea soup on a cold day.
But it was your pasta dish that inspired me to look for an old Sloppy Joe Casserole recipe I haven’t made in a couple years - similar ingredients but with ground beef, a little dry mustard added to the sauce and cubed hamburger buns baked on top. Very school cafeteria-ish.
Ravioli, salad and brownies are great.
I can't really say roasted cabbage and sauteed romaine are similar. I love roasted cabbage - do mine in the oven and it has a great flavour, Sauteed romaine is much more delicate. I cut a romaine heart in half lengthwise and saute' it in a good olive oil in a fry pan till it slightly browns then turn it over and get the other side slightly browned. It's ready in minutes and is very fresh and still a little crisp. Makes a lovely side dish with salmon, or chicken, for example, when you get tired of salads.
Tonight I made sheetpan baked cheese ravioli with spinach and tomato sauce, green salad and brownies for dessert.
Her mom (my daughter) brought veggies from her garden and figs from her tree. Such a treat. We talked about a roasted fig leaf recipe she wants to try. She’s the one with the peanut stew. She keeps me young. I am so grateful.
Golden, sautéed romaine hearts sounds delicious. I love cabbage slices roasted on the Foreman grill. Are they similar?
