RiversideLen.I felt good enough this evening that I had leftover pizza for supper rather than chicken noodle soup. I'm not sure if this covid case has affected my taste buds.
It's good to hear that you are feeling better, Mike, but don't overdo it, as some people boomerang back for a time after feeling better. I hope that your taste buds will recover.
We finished the pecan-crusted pork chops (warm up well in the microwave) and the pasta with spinach and Greek cheese tonight, so I will be cooking tomorrow. We have gotten some snow, perhaps going on two inches and may get more tonight and tomorrow.
I had a hamburger patty with potato salad.
BakerAunt I saw where y'all were having lots of snow, stay warm!
Taking it easy, today is the first day since Saturday that my eyes aren't a constant source of pain. The runny nose is slowing down a bit, replaced by congestion and occasional sneezing/coughing.
We got about 4 inches of snow last night-this morning. Really cold predicted for tonight, 10 below. \
We had the last of the pizza for supper tonight.
Yesterday I roasted a pork tenderloin, had some with rice and brussels sprouts.
Tonight I made a stew with some of the leftover tenderloin. It hit the spot after having to deal with the snow.
I had lunch with a friend today so I just had a grilled cheese sandwich tonight.
Joan--We only had 2 inches of snow overnight, which is not bad. We've been dealing with ice the past couple of days, and with temperatures dropping--this evening it is 12 F at 8:23 p.m., it will be even more of an issue.
For dinner tonight, I made black-eyed peas with sauteed yellow bell pepper, celery, and kale, with ham from the freezer and brown rice cooked in the rice cooker. I season with 1/4 tsp. thyme and some freshly ground black pepper.
I made a quesadilla and had it with broccoli and carrot.
We had roast beef with (instant) mashed potatoes and gravy.
I made Sheet-Pan Baked Parmesan Chicken with Asparagus & Potatoes from the Eat Well site. I just dipped the chicken in a little mayo instead of the egg white and flour. It was easy and very good.
We both had big salads I had some leftover rotisserie chicken on mine.
I had a Quesadilla, roasted potato and fresh green beans.
We had more of the black-eyed peas with brown rice and ham.
Yesterday I had chicken pot pie.
I made Spaghetti Squash Casserole for dinner on Saturday. As my husband's digestive system does not agree with Italian spices, I used 2 tsp. of Penzey's Bouquet Garni and some freshly ground black pepper. The tomato sauce, from our tomatoes, came from the freezer. My husband liked it, so I will use that spice combination in the future when I make it for both of us.
