Our internet went out on Thursday, so I am going to post my cooking from Thursday through Saturday here.
I roasted another chicken for dinner on Thursday, as we again were able to get a good deal on a marked-down one on Tuesday. I roasted sweet potato chunks to go with it, but I put those in the countertop convection oven, which does a better job than the large oven. I also made gravy to use tomorrow. We completed the main meal with microwaved frozen peas. We had planned to do our big shopping trip today, but there was light snow late last evening, and temperatures dipped below freezing, which means salt being scattered on the roads, which would result in having to clean the car when we got home, so we put the trip off until next week.
I made mashed potatoes to accompany the leftover chicken for dinner on Friday. I steamed the potatoes before mashing them with their skins, then added some salt and low-fat evaporated milk. We also had a mixed greens (from farmers market) salad with tomatoes. I made Italian Seasoning dressing using the Penzey's mix, but I added a bit of Dijon mustard and maple syrup.
Saturday night's dinner was leftovers from Friday, but we had microwaved frozen peas with it.
