      We have plenty of leftover chicken and vegetables for dinner tonight, but for those of you cooking on this Sunday, here is this week's thread.

        I made a 2.4 pound tri-tip roast today, I sprayed it with oil, dusted it with a little basil, pepper and onion powder, and roasted it at 425 until it was 145 at the center.

        The hardest part was figuring out which way the grain went so I knew which direction to slice it. 🙂

        I got enough drippings to make some gravy. Gravy without salt is kind of flat, though.

          Monday night's dinner was one of my stir-together dinners. I started with chopped orange bell pepper and sliced mushrooms, which I sautéed in grapeseed oil. I cut the rest of the chicken into small pieces and added it, then broccoli florets. I had frozen the drippings from about ten days ago, when we had roast chicken legs with maple syrup and sweet potatoes. I skimmed off the fat and added it to the vegetables. I cooked soba noodles and tossed them with the meat and vegetables. I added sliced green onion right before serving.

                For dinner tonight, I'm making soup, mostly on the wood stove--a good recipe for a cold day that has had intermittent snow. I started by sautéing a package of ground turkey in a bit of olive oil, then added some chopped onion and celery, then sliced mushrooms. I peeled, then diced a butternut squash and added it. I had a container of about 6 cups turkey stock from the freezer. I used the Bob's Red Mill Vegi-Soup mixture of lentils, split green peas, and split yellow peas with barley (1 1/3 cups). I added an additional 1/3 cup pearl barley. I seasoned with 1 tsp. rubbed sage. I moved the covered pot to the wood stove at this point, and it should be ready in an hour. It will go nicely with the cheese crackers I baked yesterday.

                  I made clam chowder for dinner. It is snowing quite heavy now, and we are predicted to get 12-18 inches by the time the storm ends tomorrow night. I had leftover hamburg-macaroni soup for lunch. It's soup weather!

                        We had sliced tri-tip beef on a salad, as I'm trying to use up the last of the tri-tip. I've got an eye of round that I'll make over the weekend.

                            Friday night dinner is Salmon with Dill and Couscous. I like the recipe, but I do wish that I could persuade my husband to eat different salmon recipes.

                              This week we had braised beef shank w/daikon radish, ground pork w/lotus root stir-fry, copycat Whole Foods curry chicken salad, sauteed Napa cabbage w/ham and rice noodles. I find that the Costco roasted cashews are a bit too salty so I bought their unroasted and unsalted cashews, roasted them on my own at home and then mixed the two together.
