Love the baby back ribs Navlys sounds great.
April 16, 2023 at 7:37 pm #39033We had mac and cheese
April 16, 2023 at 7:43 pm #39034We had salads for supper - seafood, broccoli, and orzo with tuna, celery, onions, green pepper, carrots and Italian dressing. After 3 days of temperatures around 87 degrees, the 77* today was perfect for starting to clean up the rock garden, enjoy a margarita on the deck, and have salads ready to eat.
April 17, 2023 at 7:11 pm #39047After several days with highs in the low 80s, yesterday brought cooler temperatures, and it was 32F when we got up this morning. We are supposed to have freezing temperatures tonight and tomorrow. That calls for a winter meal, so on Monday I made my Pork Loin Roast with Barley, Butternut Squash, and Kale. I had been wanting to make this meal for the last few weeks, using a roast that I bought a couple of months ago from the meat vendor at our farmers' market. However, I had to wait until last week when we did our shopping trip to the next town to get the kale, then I had to wait for cold weather, which I knew would be back.
I had one last very large squash that came from our garden last fall just before the freeze. It was from the seed that was in with the honey nut squashes but clearly did not belong there, as these squashes had large leaves and produced large fruit. This one was 15-inches long, mostly with a bulb at the bottom and long neck. It had not fully ripened when my husband picked it before the frost, but it sat on the enclosed sun porch and finished up nicely. Its taste is excellent. My husband decided to save some seed from it and will plant one, just to see if we can get an equivalent batch of large squashes. Of course, this seed would have hybridized with the honey nuts.
April 17, 2023 at 9:07 pm #39048I made a small pot of lima bean soup with leftover lima beans and rice.I had some chicken stock (gel) from a baked chicken so I put that in a pot with a ripe chopped tomato I needed to use with 2 ribs of celery,one carrot and about a half cup of onion and some water.,when that was done I added in the beans and rice.One of my husbands favorite soups but he only ate about a cupful.He isn't eating hardly anything or drinking either.
April 18, 2023 at 7:16 am #39049I'm so sorry, Joan. Hugs and prayers.
April 18, 2023 at 6:32 pm #39050Dinner tonight was grilled chicken thighs, wild rice, broccoli, and leftover orzo salad.
April 20, 2023 at 6:46 am #39056Time to clean out the freezer and fridge. I sautéed shrimp with pineapple and sausage. I added broccoli and served over rice. With a little spice addition here and there it was pretty tasty.
April 20, 2023 at 6:03 pm #39063I had a hamburger on light bread and my husband had cereal.Thanks Bakeraunt for the prayers.
April 21, 2023 at 5:07 pm #39072I made my husband a hamburger steak and baked potato, I had a potato and sandwich.
April 21, 2023 at 7:25 pm #39076I hope he ate well, Joan.
This is the first night all week I haven't had a work crisis hit around suppertime, so I finally got my T-bone steak on the grill, though it was a little cold out there, high 40's. I paired that with a baked potato and some sauteed mushrooms.
April 22, 2023 at 4:46 pm #39088We had chargrilled chicken,thickened potatoes and stewed squash.My husband hardly ate anything.
April 22, 2023 at 6:29 pm #39090On Saturday, I cut the rest of the ham away from the bone and froze it. I then cooked a package of black-eyed peas with the ham bone. I sauteed yellow bell pepper and celery in avocado oil, then added the black-eyed peas and any additional meat that had come off the bone. I mixed in minced parsley, and some brown rice, and added 1 tsp. thyme and some black pepper. It's a simple but delicious dinner, and we have enough for two more nights.
