Mike Nolan.I had 2 slaw dogs with a cup of chocolate pudding.
I made an orzo-spinach-feta salad for my husband to take to a pot-luck dinner. Don't know what I'll have, but leftover potato salad for sure. I'm leaving for a week in Maine in the morning, and don't want to leave a lot of leftovers for my husband to finish off because they will still be in the fridge when I get back!!
I made stir-fry for dinner on Wednesday using soba noodles and leftover pork from last night, along with the pan de-glazing. Vegetables were celery, red bell pepper, mushrooms, broccoli, and snow peas from our garden. We did not have much of a snow pea crop this year, but we accumulated enough for about a hand full.
I made the orzo and shrimp salad that I posted a while ago. I substituted cilantro for the parsley and added thai basil. Delicious if I say so myself!
Y'alls salads sounds good.Chocomouse I hope you have a good trip and enjoy!I understand about the leftovers for your husband 🙂
We're having salami-and-tomato sandwiches.
I had planned to re-heat the stir-fry for dinner on Thursday, but it is a cooler, rainy day, and I had picked up a marked down chicken at the grocery on Tuesday, so I roasted it for dinner. I also roasted sweet potato chunks tossed in olive oil. Dinner was completed by leftover green bean, cherry tomatoes, and feta salad.
It's still so hot that i brought home a couple of blackened chicken breasts from work, picked up some salad mix and tomatoes so Will could make a salad for dinner - he also toasted croutons.
Yesterday I made tostadas with beans, beef and cheddar. Had it with broccoli and an ear of corn.
We had leftover stir-fry for Friday's dinner.
We had tacos/taco salads
Macaroni with meat sauce and a salad.
I had a salad with corn on the cob.
I did the easy thing today and had Chinese delivery. General Tsao's Chicken, chicken fried rice and won ton soup. Have enough left for tomorrow's lunch.
I made chicken broth on Saturday by boiling up the bones from the chicken I roasted earlier in the week, as well as bones save from roasted bone-in chicken breasts.
We had an easy meal of leftovers on Saturday of roasted chicken, the rest of the green beans, cherry tomato, and feta salad, and the leftover roasted sweet potato chunks.
