I had chicken meatballs, broccoli, mashed potato and gravy.

My husband had a dental procedure on Tuesday, so his mouth was too sore to eat last night's leftovers. I pulled out some chicken broth from the freezer and warmed it up for him. I decided to eat an improvised dinner of scrambled egg with onion, mushrooms, and low-fat mozzarella, with raw carrots on the side.

Shopping with my best friend today and we did a big Mexican lunch so I'm doing fruit for supper.

BakerAunt I hope your husbands procedure heals soon and the soreness goes away.

[BakerAunt]

Thanks, Joan. It is better today, but he has to be careful how he eats.

I made applesauce on Wednesday as a treat for my husband, who is recovering from a dental procedure.

I made me a chuck eye steak with a baked potato, dang it was good.

For dinner on Thursday, I made my lighter version of my mother's hamburger stroganoff, which we had over a mixture of brown and wild rice. We also had microwaved frozen peas.

I got a new meat grinder for my KitchenAid mixers (the metal one, not the plastic). Yesterday I had a couple of strip steaks in the freezer that I decided to grind. The grinder worked beautifully. I made a smaller burger for yesterday's lunch (about 3 ounces) and it was very good. It does taste different from regular ground beef. I took the remaining meat (20 ounces) and used it to stuff 4 green pepper halves, which I had one for dinner yesterday with some pasta and broccoli. I made a small batch of pizza dough this afternoon and one of those stuffed peppers is going to find its way sliced onto a small cast iron skillet pizza.

If I had prepared those steaks as steaks, I would have had 2 meals from them. By grinding them I got one lunch and will have 4 dinners.

Congratulations on your new kitchen tool, Len!

We had leftover hamburger stroganoff with rice, along with microwaved frozen peas and carrots. We also had applesauce.

Glad you are liking your new meat grinder Len sounds great.

Yesterday I went with friends out to see Christmas lights and we ate in a small town, really good Rueben for me and today I was in town with my sister in law and we ate BBBQ sandwich from Sonny's BBQ.

For Saturday's dinner, I made Salmon and Couscous with Greek Seasoning. We had it with microwaved fresh broccoli.

No cooking tonight, I took Diane to Outback for her birthday.
