Sorry to say, but this site has been so depressing for a few days. I thought I'd ask an average, everyday question....to make us all feel a little more normal today.
I made Eggplant Lasagna, and my BIL and SIL are coming for dinner. They leave for Cali tomorrow to see their beautiful grand daughter.
Sorry, sometimes we just need some REGULAR conversation.......or at least THIS caregiver does.
One pork recipe I do like is Pork and Barley. Stuff the pork chops or loin with sauteed barley, peppers, onions, and celery (sometimes mushrooms too). Bake. Yum.
Tonight, despite the beef comments, I'm having a hamburger. My cooking energy went to breakfast because my son is home from college: French toast, my recipe, and topped with ground nuts, berries, nutmeg, and a sprinkle of powdered sugar. He loves it.
For veggies and soups it's great. Does slicing and shredding in seconds. Love it except for the cleaning as is with all FP. It's all dishwasher friendly though so that's good.
For small work, I love, love, love my Cuisinart immersion blender. That puppy is SO easy to clean. Whip up your dressing. Pour in serving container. Whip up soap and hot water in the cleaning container. Whir, rinse and you're done. Did I mention I love my it? Yes. I'm a nerd...
Gosh, those pork chops sound so good. Roasted acorn squash and some couscous on the side? :)
anyway i made a stack of pancakes with sugar and lemon then maple FLAVOURED syrup (cant afford the real maple stuff here). Then for dinner we had chicken and mushroom crepes with a cream sauce. Then more pancakes for supper.
Yep mums a diabetic and ive got high Cholestrol anyway cant stop farting!! did i say im intolerant to "wheat".
Getting strange looks from the cat? the 2 yrs ive had him hes NEVER farted!! He looks concerned!!
Anywhoo going to ROLL up to bed now too many pancakes but hey hoh "its tradition" no more until next year now.
For supper tonight - chicken breast with mushrooms, onion and spinach in a coconut sauce flavoured with ginger, lime, and garlic and a good shake of roasted red pepper flakes.. It passes the taste test! I will serve it on pasta or with brown/wild rice for G and without the extra carbs for me. Saving the rest of the bag of spinach for a strawberry spinach salad tomorrow.
Has anyone tried black pepper on strawberries? Mm mm good!
keep the stuffing pretty moist..
We are having Pork Tenderloin (markdown!!) and POONCH_KEEE aka Paczki because today is MARDI GRAS (Fat Tuesday)
