Probably a leftovers night here today, at least for me. (My wife isn't a big fan of leftovers.)

For Sunday dinner, I made black-eyed peas with brown rice, yellow bell pepper, ham, rehydrated dried onion, some kale, parsley, and black pepper. The bread I baked yesterday, thinly sliced with a bit of butter (ok, Land of Lakes Light Butter Canola spread) goes with it very well.

We have enough for several more meals, so I can alternate it with the roast chicken.

I roasted a pork loin with potatoes, carrots, onions, and apples. There is plenty for another meal or two.

I made a recipe for a French lentil salad from Barefoot Contessa. She used kielbasa which she just sliced without warming up to the warm lentils. I used Portuguese chorizo the I sliced and warmed in a pan. We really enjoyed it. Her accompaniment was toasted baguette with herb goat cheese. Ours was toasted sourdough with Brie (it was on sale)

To go with microwaved fresh broccoli and leftover chicken for Monday dinner, I roasted some cubed potatoes that I had tossed in olive oil and Penzey's Mural of Flavor seasoning. Roasting at 400F for 45 minutes was just right.

Last night we had soups for supper. I had mushroom, out of the freezer, and I made fresh clam chowder for my husband. With it, we had cheesey gougeres, from the freezer.

I didn't have to do much cooking again today! We had lasagna from the freezer; I had made it about a month ago. And we had a green salad mostly from the sunroom, with the addition of onions, sweet red peppers, carrots, and tomatoes.

Joan, Happy Birthday

I have a favorite pumpkin, chickpea and curry soup which I made last week with half a Medium size squash. I think it was a squash, it might have been a small pumpkin. Anyway half of it made about 3 cups of 1 inch cubed pumpkin for the soup. This left me half a pumpkin to spare. I decided I wasnted another pumpkin soup but with a different flavor theme. I decided to go with a Mexican style. I made soup with a can of tomatoes with chile, cumin, onions, 2 cans of black beans and the pumpkin. It came out with a decided chili flavor.

I also made a fast focaccio bread to go with this. I used White Lily Flour and its very odd using all white flour when I mainly stick with whole wheat. Also I had to bake the bread until it was brown on top whereas I don't worry about color with whole wheat.

Late lunch was carryout, leaving no room for dinner. Instead, I cooked 2 cube steaks to refrigerate. They'll be warmed up for lunch tomorrow with roasted brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes. I took a page from BakerAunt's book and saved the cube steak drippings to make gravy tomorrow.
