Not much cooking here tonight! My husband fixed himself a BLT when he got home late, his lunch and dinner. I'm eating store bought mango-pineapple-ginger salsa on tortilla chips.

Dinner tonight was quesedillas, made with leftover pork sliced thin, onions, green peppers, cheddar-mozarella cheese, and salsa. I used mango-pineapple-ginger salsa on some, and tomato salsa on some.

I made buckwheat pancakes for breakfast. I more or less followed the recipe on the bag but instead of using one egg, I used one egg yolk and 2 egg whites that I whipped up. Then I folded them into the batter which was already otherwise mixed. It made for very light pancakes.

This evening I took some of my homegrown tomatoes and made sauce from them.

I was originally thinking sliders on the grill tonight, but then I decided sloppy joes sounded better, so after looking at several recipes online (including ones here) and checking the ingredients lists for Manwich (which has garlic) and Heinz Sloppy Joe mix (which does not have garlic but which I can't find anywhere), I made up a batch of sloppy joe mix.

I didn't use any green pepper in it, and that's the first thing my wife (who normally doesn't like green pepper) said it needed. So I think I'll try adding a little green pepper to the rest of the sauce (I made 2 1/2 quarts of it) and see if that helps. But my wife and I agree that it was pretty good for a first try at developing a recipe.

Tonight we had hamburger steaks smothered in onion and french fries.

We had leftovers tonight, almost cleaned out the refrigerator.

I made a couple of pork chops yesterday, so I had a pork chop yesterday and today. Had it with a little pasta with sauce made from my tomatoes. Had it with steamed broccoli and carrots.
