KayLR - thanks for the 2 ingredient bagel recipe! Will definitely have to try that. If you make your own self-rising flour, it only ups the ingredient list to 4 - lol.
Dinner tonight is more Christmas dinner leftovers. I did pack up about 4 meals of turkey and about 4 quarts of broth into the freezer.
Tacos!
Spicy spinach bean burritos!
Spaetzle with caramelized onions.
A burger with fried mashed potatoes mixed with garlic, onions and green beans on the side. Last of frozen cherries for dessert
Tomorrow I'm thinking an Asian-inspired pork meatball/basmati rice melange with garlic, leeks, peppers, and ginger.
tonight will be leftovers from LAST night, which was a pork loin braised in hard cider with leeks, parsnips, and celery root, and a lovely sauce made with the left-over liquid.
Just finished making a "curried chicken couscous casserole" for the first time. I just felt like a curried dish.
Funny -- you don't look like a curried dish! <ba-dum> I'm here all week. Tip your wait staff!Quote:

Last week while watching TV on the treadmill, I heard of a new-to-me ingredient called Nduja. Its a sausage spread from Calabria Italy. Filed that away in my brain. Then over the weekend, in my car I heard a Splendid Table show with a guest that mentioned a vegetarian nduja from her book Umami Bomb. So I made that today, and used that as a pizza base in lieu of tomato sauce, and I could have sworn I was eating a sausage pizza. My husband is vegetarian but I am not, so it was good to be able to make us something that made us both happy (I usually put sausage on just one half of the pizza). Its sundried tomatoes. olives and lots of spices that are used in sausage. Spicy and delicious.
Tomorrow/soon I'm going to experiment with a bacon lardon recipe that was also mentioned. I have yet to make a vegetarian bacon recipe that I'm happy with, and is easy to make. I did a tofu one that was way too much work for this lazy cook. This fake bacon was used in a black eye pea recipe for New Years.
I made rolls last night for the sliced ham to go with the split pea soup. They were WONDERFUL! I didn't start until after 3pm and they were ready by 6! Love the bread machine!
Lucky you having a bread machine! I cannot have one in the house as I love fresh bread and eat way too much too often. No will power with fresh bread at all:(Quote:

Tried to order Chinese food for today - day or evening but they are sold out until after 8pm. That is too late for me.
Plan B is cranberry cheese on toast, https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/21...rk-tenderloin/ apple-glazed pork tenderloin with roast potatoes, freezer asparagus and fresh cherry tomatoes with mango custard for dessert. Sparkling cranberry-apple cider is my beverage of choice for New Year's Eve.
My entertainment is a live online Metopera New Year's Eve concert.
Perfect way to end on a high note and a fresh start to what I hope and pray will be a positive 2021 for all.
Broiled seasoned chicken wings, layered taco dip and chips.
Peas with grated cheddar and some slices of Swiss cheese since it's New Year's Eve and I love cheese.
Oh, Razz, I hear you. When I first got the machine I made whole wheat bread and ate it every morning....not good for me. I use it to make the Christmas sticky buns and then it sits in the cupboard. My husband who never eats much bread ate 3 of the buns! He plans to eat more! I now need to see if they freeze well.
Have to go back to regular sized meals after pigging out for a few days so cream of cauliflower with a English muffin and cheese.
The grandkids are here for an overnight before they go back to day care on Monday (*le sigh*) so the originally planned keto crustless taco pie will be tonight's dinner, not tonight's and Monday's and somebody's Tuesday's lunch. I'm sure the kids will augment with a more than sufficient amount of carbohydrates. :)
Made banana bread pancakes and bacon for lunch.
Friday is always pizza, salad and a movie.
Dried apples dipped in whipped cream cheese.
Rice risotto with parmesan cheese and veggies
Modified 3-bean soup recipe. Will be nice as we got a little bit of snow this morning. Maybe some homemade biscuits to go with.
The snow melted so I was able to harvest some parsley I made into a salad with tomatoes, an avocado, lemon juice and olive oil.
Eggplant pizzas along with a regular pizza on a pre-made thin crust.
A slice of pizza, some homemade coleslaw and grape tomatoes.
Trying once again to eat healthier, so last night was eggplant cooked in chopped tomatoes with some olive oil and curry, over quinoa.
Tonight will be shrimp, but haven't figured out the details.
ETA: Last night's dinner was delicious, BTW.
Coleslaw.
Leftover roast chicken (I think).
We ended up having sautéed shrimp with a large salad.
Coconut braised beef tonight. Yesterday was local-restaurant-takeout night -- a Rachel sandwich for DW and a Cubano (sans bread) for me.
Instant Pot hamburgers (first time for those), and maybe a salad.
Coconut braised beef sounds yummy. Instant Pot hamburgers sound intriguing.
For some reason, I'm craving comfort food. :help:
Tikka masala, a vegetarian version by Loma Linda.
