Maybe just leftover becker lamb patties (from joy of cooking - they are always good) with something vegetable maybe. I have been cooking more after my great lazy canned beans for dinner phase. I still resent the time it takes somewhat though. Have no time as it is and then waste it cooking!
I have marinated mushrooms in the fridge, made a cucumber salad (already ate over a few days - plan to make another), made something with mushrooms, potatoes, tomatoes, cheeses and olive oil that I regret making as it gave me horrible heartburn on more than one day (and I'm not prone to it, and I can tolerate the ingredients seperately, but whatever convinced me that was a good idea, I don't know! :0!). And I remember how food sensitive I really am and how new recipes are potentially dangerous (make me feel bad physically).
Sort of a cleaning out the fridge day:
- the end of a 4 day egg curry run, 1 hard-boiled egg and sauce served over leftover orzo
- boiled frozen peas and corn
- a bowl of leftover dal (curried lentil soup, with added potatoes and peas, carrots and coconut milk)
And, of course, a nice Grolsch to wash it down.
All the while watching the Montreal Canadiens win their penultimate playoff game against the dastardly Boston Bruins!!! (sorry bruins fans). Go Habs! Boo Beantown!
I've got leftover taco meat in the fridge, with plenty of fresh veggies and cheese for toppings. I'll probably skip that tonight, though. I try to stagger how often I eat meat dishes. I made a loaf of french bread yesterday, and made some tuna with mayo and sweet pickles for lunch today. The fresh bread makes any sandwich delicious. I cooked up a pot of brown rice and barley about an hour ago. For dinner I'll probably have that with some sauteed patty pan squash with garlic and parmesan cheese.
I made macaroons today, and they were pretty good, but probably not for dinner. I'm thinking ground turkey mixed with minced garlic and chili flakes, with a romaine salad and homemade dressing, probably bacon.
Thank you Florence for the thread. I miss it when it's not around. I very much enjoy hearing what everyone is fixing.
Today - grilled pork steaks and homemade onion rings (the Vidalias are in!), with garden radishes on the side. I tried a new onion ring recipe/technique that I really liked and made killer onion rings.
Tomorrow - goulash and green salad. We still have 6 qts. of canned tomatoes from last year's garden, so I need to start thinking of ways to get them used up before we start on THIS year's garden produce, which will be here before I know it. :)
I forgot...I made chewy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies this afternoon. I baked a dozen and saved the rest of the dough. I'll make some to give a neighbor, and bring some later in the week to my knitting group. Had those for dessert...yum! My chicken has been laying fresh eggs, so I used those. I'll give her some crumbs in her breakfast tomorrow. She loves chocolate chip cookies. She seems to understand that if she lays eggs, she gets cookie crumbs.
Blackdog, those onion rings sound delicious. I haven't had onion rings in years. I make french fries pretty regularly...
Everyone's homemade meals sound really good!
I have a roaster chicken in the cp and am about ready to put some rice into the rice cooker. Not sure of what veggie, but probably something quick. If I could get motivated, I'd make a salad.
I have a recipe for kale, onions, and carrots designed for the pressure cooker--and those are exactly the vegetables I need to use up. So that's what's for dinner (with the addition of some protein).
Working to empty the freezer - thought I had some spaghetti sauce put away - didn't but found a 1/2 lb of burger so made some sauce for tonight's dinner. Finished up most of the salad stuff too. Toasted one of the 3 sourdough rolls left in the freezer.
Trying not to go to the grocery store until all the perishables are gone - have some cauliflower, a lb of green beans, handful of strawberries and several clementines - hoping to hold out until mid-next week.
With just 2 of us, I'm trying to use what we have rather than stockpiling "good deals".
Tomorrow is pasta salad with turkey and vegies. And another piece of sourdough. Saturday is a steak and jasmine rice with vegies. Oh what the heck, the last of the sourdough rolls!!
